  • Patent number: 12337209
    Abstract: An item of exercise equipment with a movable support that is movable in a fore-aft direction and simultaneously movable laterally, e.g. about a tilt axis. The exercise equipment may be a cycle mounted to a base. A roller and track arrangement may be provided between the cycle and base, to provide movement of the cycle in the axial direction and in a tilt direction relative to the base. The roller and track arrangement may be one or more curved roller and track engagement surfaces that extend in the axial direction and provide a gravity bias of the platform toward an axial neutral position. The cycle and base include a tilt biasing arrangement for biasing the cycle toward a tilt neutral position relative to the base.

  • Publication number: 20250195996
    Abstract: A gaming controller system includes a gaming controller having a surface including a plurality of buttons corresponding to in-game inputs. The plurality of buttons includes a first assemblage of buttons and a first modifier button. The system also includes a local memory located within the gaming controller and having machine readable non-transitory storage including a profile data that modifies the in-game input. The system further includes a processor located within the gaming controller and configured to read the non-transitory storage in view of the profile data to modify the in-game inputs, wherein the processor is configured to translate pressing of the first modifier button as corresponding to one or more of the plurality of buttons in the first assemblage of buttons at a different in-game input than the in-game input when pressing the corresponding one or more of the plurality of buttons in the first assemblage of buttons.

  • Patent number: 12263401
    Abstract: A gaming controller includes a series of button assemblages corresponding to various game input functions. The assemblages are angled such that an operator's fingers are aligned with buttons resulting minimal tilting of the wrist. The gaming controller includes modifier buttons that change the strength of corresponding button input. A controller operating system includes a controller circuit with a processor configured to perform various functionalities. The operating system further includes a plurality of settings and sub-settings, at least some of which being related to user profiles, modifier button settings, and/or override systems. A method includes connecting the gaming controller to a video monitor and changing at least one setting associated with at least one of a user profile, a modifier button, and an override system that is saved on a local memory.

  • Publication number: 20240418365
    Abstract: Provided is a torch assembly comprising a body having a first end and a second end opposite the first end, an ignitor assembly, and a burn tube comprising a first portion oriented in a direction of a longitudinal axis of the body and having a first diameter, and a second portion having a bend configured to direct the flame of the torch in a direction with respect to the longitudinal axis, the second portion having a second diameter greater than the first diameter. The angle of the bend can be ninety-degrees with respect to the longitudinal axis. The torch can further include a trigger lock mechanism to restrict movement of a trigger and a run lock mechanism configured to hold the trigger in an on position.

  • Patent number: 12102568
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a fog-reducing apparatus for eye protection equipment. For example, the fog-reducing apparatus includes a filter-pump system that provides air through one or more flexible hoses and across a lens of eye protection equipment. In certain implementations, the fog-reducing apparatus includes one or more nozzles (e.g., interchangeable nozzles) that provide directional air flow across the lens. Depending on the nozzle and/or an air flow controller, the fog-reducing apparatus can provide variable amounts of air flow and adjustable air flow direction as may be desired. In addition, the nozzle can attach to one or more components of the eye protection equipment, such as a lens, shield, or hood via one or more attachment mechanisms. Further, the nozzle can be inserted through an air vent or other hole into the eye protection equipment.

  • Patent number: 11861300
    Abstract: A system for maintaining links and revisions for documents is described. The system comprises a productivity server configured to provide a document collaboration service and having processors and a memory storing program data. The program data configures the processors to: receive requests indicating revisions on the documents, including a first request that indicates a first revision to a first document, and a second request that indicates a second revision to a second document. For each request, a workspace revision counter shared by, and indicating a revision state of, the documents is incremented. The workspace revision counter is incremented a first time for the first request and a second time for the second request. Revisions corresponding to the each request are queued in a workspace revision queue shared by the documents. The revisions are caused to be performed on the documents that correspond to the each request.
