Abstract: Implementations of the present disclosure relate to apparatuses, systems, and methods for constructing, installing, and using a compression follower in a tubular firearm magazine. In particular, the compression follower resides inside a shotgun magazine and replaces the standard follower. The compression follower has a compressible tail, thereby providing the capacity of a standard follower and increased reliability by aligning the follower and a magazine spring.

Abstract: This invention has to do with a gripping cable hanger assembly system for the solar, mining, and electrical industry. The gripping cable hanger is comprised of a support wire gripping mechanism, cable carrier supports/receptacles, data carrier wire capability, space between said wire carriers with said wire comprising a shape retention material that may have a high dielectric, UV resistant coating thereon.

Abstract: A blister and package system made of a blister card and an outer package with unique interacting locking mechanisms. The blister card or strip is inserted into the outer package or sleeve and locks immediately without having to further process the outer package or the blister card or strip. The user is able to expose the blisters from the outer package by disengaging the lock. The blister card or strip includes a formable, pliable sheet material, into which one or more individual cavities or blisters are formed. The separated cavities are loaded with product and sealed with one or more layers of puncturable or tearable sheet material, such as aluminum foil. The blister card or strip contains a plastic rivet assembly that forms an interference mechanism. The rivet is trapped by an internally formed panel and stopped by a catch flap included in the outer package.

Abstract: In one implementation, an apparatus is configured to aid in the manufacturing or assembling of electronic surface mount packages. The apparatus includes a common mode choke base configured to support a common mode choke. The apparatus includes terminal contacts coupled to the common mode choke base. The terminal contacts are aligned with wires connected to the common mode choke. The apparatus includes a support member including a wire supporting portion aligned with the wires connected to the common mode choke and a central portion configured to support the common mode choke base.

Abstract: A gun standoff device may include an elongated body having crenulations at a first end and an attachment mechanism at a second end. The crenulations at the first end may provide a plurality of radially disposed teeth about the circumference of the first end. The attachment mechanism may allow attachment of the elongated body to a gun barrel, a gun magazine, or other gun component.

Abstract: A device in accordance to an embodiment includes a tubular housing having an inside diameter defining an axial bore, a top surface and an outer surface, a groove formed along the outer surface below the top surface, a flapper pivotally connected with the housing and pivotal between an open position to allow flow through the bore and a closed position to block flow through the bore and a torsion spring having a spring diameter and disposed in the groove and in connection with the flapper to bias the flapper to one of the open and the closed position. The torsion spring may be nested in a C-shaped groove.

Abstract: A device, such as a valve, having a soft seat disposed in a groove formed in and circumferentially along a hard seating surface of a hard seat and one or more retaining elements disposed in the groove in contact with the soft seat and the hard seat.

Abstract: A mechanical harvester for harvesting a produce with a stem/core planted in a field includes a chassis, and a cutting device and a transport assembly connected to the chassis. The cutting device is configured to cut the stem/core of the produce. The transport assembly is configured to transport the produce using a movable first belt with a first set of produce grippers and a movable second belt with a second set of produce grippers. When the produce is held between the first set and second set of produce grippers, a portion of the first set of produce grippers opposes a portion of the second set of produce grippers. The opposing produce grippers are configured to compress and exert a force on the produce to hold the produce between the movable first and second belts.

Abstract: A locking cable hanger assembly for the solar, mining, and electrical industry includes a new wire locking mechanism, new multiple cable carrier saddles on one hanger, data carrier wire capability, and optional high dielectric, UV coated material.

Abstract: An coupon distribution and processing platform system allows its members/constituents to receive services associated with the purchase of consumer products. Specifically, a user, registered with the system, accesses an account and electronically selects one or more coupons to be associated with a card device. Thereafter, when the user's card device is scanned at a particular retail entity, the accounts associated with the user and retail entity are credited, while the account associated with the manufacturer is debited. Further, the user, the manufacturer, and the retail entity, each having a corresponding account, may select one or more services provided by with the system website.
