  • Publication number: 20230113386
    Abstract: An online concierge system maintains a taxonomy associating one or more specific items offered by a warehouse with a generic item description. When the online concierge system receives a request to create an order from a user, the online concierge system selects a set of generic item descriptions from previously received orders and displays depictions of each generic item of the set to the user via an interface. In response to the user selecting a generic item description, the online concierge system identifies specific items associated with the selected generic item description from the taxonomy. Different identified specific items are displayed via the interface, for example as a scrollable list, allowing the user to select specific items for an order via the interface after selecting one or more generic item descriptions via the interface.

  • Patent number: 9168800
    Abstract: A drawbar pin-retention assembly for use with a drawbar mechanism has a swinging drawbar, a support housing, and a device configured to prevent the swinging of the drawbar, the device having at least one drawbar pin. The pin-retention assembly includes a hanger bracket having a body portion and a pair of overhanging arms and a retaining bracket mounted on the hanger bracket with hinge tabs and pivotable about a pivot axis to move between a pin-retaining position and a pin-removal position. When the retaining bracket is pivoted to its pin-retaining position, a strap is positioned over the drawbar pin. Outward movement of the pin causes it to contact a forward portion of the strap forward of the pivot axis causing the retaining bracket to contact the hanger bracket thereby preventing pivoting of the retaining bracket in a first direction. The retaining bracket pivots by gravity to the pin-retention position.
