  • Patent number: 12221798
    Abstract: A scaffold anti-falling device including a base body. A mounting shaft and a limiting block are fixed in the base body, and an anti-falling retaining arm is movably installed on the mounting shaft. A tail end of the anti-falling retaining arm corresponds to the limiting block, and the anti-falling retaining arm is limited by the limiting block when the anti-falling retaining arm is placed flat. A counterweight block is installed on the tail end of the anti-falling retaining arm, and the counterweight block drives to the anti-falling retaining arm to swing upward to reset. A trigger swing arm is movably installed in the base body, and the trigger swing arm is placed under the anti-falling retaining arm and forms an angle with the anti-falling retaining arm. The scaffold anti-falling device is simple in structure and convenient in installation and can effectively prevent a scaffold from falling accidentally.

  • Publication number: 20240040168
    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for altering or otherwise obscuring a progress bar to prevent spoilers in a media asset. A media asset is generated for display and an input is detected from a user during playback of the media asset. A determination is made whether the input comprises a command to display a progress bar. In the affirmative, a determination regarding a current point of playback of the media asset and the type of segment is made. An entry is retrieved from a database that maps the type of segment to a range of time. A determination is made whether the remaining time of the media asset is within the range of time. In the affirmative, a determination whether displaying the progress bar would spoil the media asset is made. In response to determining that displaying the progress bar would spoil the media asset, the progress bar is refrained from generating display.
