Publication number: 20160132688Abstract: When the mobile device is awakened, a task oriented password system takes control of the device in order to present a screen in which the user must participate in a particular task prior to being granted access to the device contents or a particular application on the device. While not limited, in some embodiments, this particular task may be educational in nature. In this way, the user is exposed to educational content every time he attempts to access his device. Although each task is relatively short, the aggregate time during the course of a day may be substantial. The task oriented password system may include the mobile device, as well as one or more content providers, who generate the content that becomes part of the tasks described herein.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 17, 2014Publication date: May 12, 2016Inventors: Fred Curtis, JR., Terry Potter, Stan Miloszewski

Patent number: 3984058Abstract: A securing means for supporting a stationary die plate in a jaw crusher including the combination of angular cored pockets located in the vertical side walls of the stationary die plate and a plurality of lever-like angular wedges which are receivable in the pockets in such a manner that the stationary die plate can be forced against a supporting wall. The lever-like wedges are pivotably mounted against side walls of the jaw crusher and are bolted to the side walls in such a manner that tightening of the bolts causes the ends of the wedges which are received in the angular pockets of the die plates to apply compressive forces against the die plate forcing the die plate against the supporting wall.Type: GrantFiled: November 26, 1975Date of Patent: October 5, 1976Assignee: Barber-Greene CompanyInventors: Fred Curtis Archer, Joseph Batch
