  • Patent number: 11248328
    Abstract: A portable device for washing and spin-drying laundry, comprising a cover and a bag body, wherein the cover is provided with a rotating disk, and a user can rotate the rotating disk through a grip provided on the rotating disk, so that the rotating disk is rotated relative to the cover. A storage bag is connected at the bottom of the rotating disk, which can be used to store the laundry to be washed. The bag body is mainly made of soft material and can be folded for storage. An opening is formed for the cover to be assembled. When the present disclosure is used, the laundry to be washed is first placed in the storage bag, then the storage bag can be connected to the cover, and finally the cover can be combined with the bag body. Thereafter, the user holds the grip to turn the rotating disk such that the storage bag rotates inside the bag body to perform the washing and spin-drying operations.

  • Patent number: 9986267
    Abstract: There is provided a method for use by a system. The method includes receiving live broadcasting of a segment of a video content from a live encoder; recording the segment in a video database of the non-transitory memory, receiving edits to the segment from a producer to produce an edited segment, encoding the edited segment to produce an encoded edited segment, and transmitting a network address of the encoded edited segment to a content management system (CMS) for distribution to a plurality of user devices.

  • Publication number: 20170335555
    Abstract: Described herein is an apparatus mitigating splash-back during the use of a conventional toilet while urinating. The apparatus uses a plurality of upstanding baffles that provide for a large target area mounted on a base with a central opening. Additionally, the baffles rotate into and out of operative configurations, relative to the inner-toilet surface, to allow the use of the toilet for solid waste. The baffles mitigate the effect of splash back as the urine stream makes contact with the baffles and reflects the droplets laterally. Additionally, droplets generated when the urine stream contacts either the base or pool of standing water is mitigated by the baffles intercepting the reflective path back to the user.

  • Patent number: 9618293
    Abstract: A munitions disabling device is disposed in a storage container proximate the muzzle of a single-use weapon. A projectile having a fused warhead is loaded in the weapon prior to storing the weapon. If an unplanned stimulus launches the projectile while the weapon is in the storage container, the projectile will impact or strike the disabling device. The disabling device prevents detonation or explosion of the warhead.

  • Patent number: 9329010
    Abstract: A storage apparatus for a munition that contains energetic material uses a water-filled liner to absorb heat applied from the exterior of the storage apparatus. The liner is disposed between the munition and a metal storage container. The liner has segregated compartments which release water into either the storage container or the liner itself. The released water boils and forms steam. A spiral-shaped steam conduit is formed in either the wall of the storage container or in the liner itself. The steam conduit directs the steam away from the munition. The metal storage container includes a pressure relief valve to release the steam pressure. The storage apparatus delays the detonation of the energetic material in the munition.
