Abstract: An automated teller machine comprises a communications module; an image module; a processor; and a memory coupled to the processor storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, configure the processor to receive a first cheque for deposit; engage the image module to capture an image of the first cheque; send, via the communications module and to a server computer system, a signal that includes the image of the first cheque for acceptance; send, via the communications module and to an automated teller machine switch, a signal that includes a request for transaction authorization approval based on the first cheque; receive, via the communications module and from the server computer system, a signal that includes an indication of acceptance of the image of the first cheque; receive, via the communications module and from the automated teller machine switch, a signal that includes an indication of approval of the request for the transaction authorization based on the first cheque; and responsive to r

Abstract: A rain head comprising a lower body, a screen and an upper body. The screen includes a frame having a trough or recess. Lower parts of the sidewalls of the upper body 14 can fit into the trough or recess to enable the upper body to be removably mounted to the rain head. The screen also includes a peripheral flange and a downwardly extending lip that enable the screen to be removably mounted to the upper part of the lower body. At least some water splashing off the screen during a rain event comes into contact with the upper body and is re-directed to flow into the lower body and out through the outlet of the lower body to a rainwater collection tank. The screen and upper body may be provided separately to the lower body.

Abstract: Aspects and techniques of the present disclosure relates generally to incorporating an index matching gel within a HMFOC such that as the HMFOC is mated, fiber tips protruding from multi-fiber ferrules of the HMFOC pass through the indexing matching gel to remove contaminates therefrom. The present disclosure also relates to a method of removing contaminates from optical fibers upon mating a hardened multi-fiber optical connector (HMFOC) with another HMFOC.

Abstract: A check seat assembly includes a check valve seat with a by-pass passage in parallel with a check valve passage of the check seat assembly to meter flow and maintain stability of a hydraulic system, such as a hydraulic cylinder. The check valve may include an o-ring seated in a V-shaped groove. The check seat assembly may allow flow from a pump to a hydraulic cylinder to freely pass through the check valve to pressurize one side of a piston of the hydraulic cylinder, such as a front side of the piston to retract a corresponding rod connected to the piston.

Abstract: A check seat assembly includes a check valve seat with a bi-pass passage in parallel with a check valve passage of the check seat assembly to meter flow and maintain stability of a hydraulic system, such as a hydraulic cylinder. The check valve may include an o-ring seated in a V-shaped groove. The check seat assembly may allow flow from a pump to a hydraulic cylinder to freely pass through the check valve to pressurize one side of a piston of the hydraulic cylinder, such as a front side of the piston to retract a corresponding rod connected to the piston.

Abstract: A relief valve includes a valve body having an inlet and an outlet; a passageway formed between the inlet and the outlet in the valve body; a valve tube positioned in the passageway having a generally cylindrical portion including a first outside diameter and a second generally cylindrical portion including a first inside diameter that is larger than the first outside diameter; a valve seat; and a spring positioned about at least a portion of the valve tube and biasing the valve tube away from the valve inlet to seal against the valve seat. The valve tube and valve seat prevent flow through the passageway when pressure at the inlet is below a predetermined pressure and wherein the valve tube moves axially away from the valve seat at the predetermined pressure allowing flow through the passageway from the inlet to the outlet.

Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for facilitating communications between application components that are distributed among many devices across a network. This allows for the application to execute as if on one device even though the application components are on many devices. A component interface is generated for the application components. The component interface intercepts communications sent from an application component, locates the intended receiving application component, and generates a component interface packet with the location. The component interface packet is then put into a network stream. The receiving component listens to the stream to obtain component interface packets that indicate the location of the device running the receiving application component. The component interface decodes the component interface packets intended for components associated with the component interface and sends communications encoded in the packet to the application components.
