  • Publication number: 20160015188
    Abstract: An anti-theft assembly for deterring theft of a ring is provided. The anti-theft assembly includes a base that can be used to support an electronic article surveillance marker; a product engagement member including a support member that supports the ring during use and a locking member that secures the support member to the base; and an attachment member for securing the ring to the support member. In one embodiment, the support member and the locking member are a single, unitary member. In another embodiment, the support member and the locking member are separate members. Once assembled, upon applying a twisting force to the ring the engagement member rotates within the opening so that the attachment member is not broken.

  • Publication number: 20150127341
    Abstract: A motion system for allowing a person to cause a desired motion operation to be performed, comprising a network, a motion machine, a speech to text converter, a message protocol generator, an instant message receiver, and a motion services system. The motion machine is capable of performing motion operations. The speech to text converter generates a digital representation of a spoken motion message spoken by the person. The message protocol generator generates a digital motion command based on the digital representation of the spoken motion message and causes the digital motion command to be transmitted over the network. The instant message receiver receives the digital motion command. The motion services system causes the motion machine to perform the desired motion operation based on the digital motion command received by the instant message receiver.

  • Patent number: 8920145
    Abstract: A hydraulic power module is provided with a plurality of hydraulic actuators. A piston of each of the hydraulic actuators is coupled with a drive plate and a screw is rotatably coupled with the drive plate. Rotation of the screw longitudinally displaces the drive plate to simultaneously actuate each of the hydraulic actuators. A second hydraulic power module may be coupled with the hydraulic power module, such that rotation of the screw also drives the screw of the second hydraulic power module.
