Abstract: Systems and techniques for indexing and/or querying a database are described herein. Multiple, large disparate data sources may be processed to cleanse and/or combine item data and/or item metadata. Further, attributes may be extracted from the item data sources. The interactive user interfaces allow a user to select one or more attributes and/or other parameters to present visualizations based on the processed data.

Abstract: A paper towel dispenser assembly including a support frame that receives a continuous length of pleated paper toweling. The paper towel dispenser assembly further including a sensor that actuates dispensing of an end of the continuous length of pleated paper toweling and a cutter that cuts a discrete towel from the end of the continuous length of pleated paper toweling.

Abstract: Systems and techniques are described for actuating a control surface about a pivot point using variable moments. A bracket having a moment arm is coupled to the pivot point such that the bracket is rotatable about the pivot point to actuate the surface. A power actuator has a shaft coupled to the bracket at a coupling point on the moment arm such that actuation force applied to the shaft results in a moment produced about the pivot point. A linear actuator is configured to adjust the location of the coupling point with respect to the pivot point to thereby changing the moment arm and the moment produced about the pivot point as the bracket rotates. By adjusting the distance between the pivot point and the coupling point, the moments produced about the pivot point can be increased while conserving actuator power.

Abstract: An interleaved towel dispenser including a housing and a separation arrangement that facilitates the separation of individual towels of a stack of interleaved towels during dispense. The stack of interleaved towels further having an adhesive area that permits attachment of the stack of interleaved towels to another stack of interleaved towels.

The paper towel dispenser assembly further including a sensor that actuates dispense of an end of the continuous length of pleated paper toweling and a cutter that cuts a discrete towel from the end of the continuous length of pleated paper toweling.

Abstract: A continuous length of pleated paper towel having a leading end and a trailing end. The continuous length of pleated paper towel including a connection at one of the leading end and trailing end that attaches to another continuous length of pleated paper towel to permit uninterrupted dispensing operation of paper towel.

Abstract: A paper towel dispenser is sized to fit within an existing recessed cabinet. The dispenser includes a frame, a pair of roll supports, and a dispensing mechanism. The pair of roll supports are supported by the frame to provide support to a roll of paper towel. The dispenser is also supported by the frame, and operates to dispense the paper towel.

Abstract: A furniture member strap system includes a first strap having loop members at a first end and hook members at a second end and a first sewn area positioned between the loop members and the hook members. A second strap has opposed ends overlapping each other creating a looped end. A buckle member has an elongated aperture to receive the looped end. A strap assembly has the second end of the first strap slid through the aperture of the buckle member and the hook members releasably engaged with the loop members. The assembly joins first and second members of a furniture assembly having the first and second straps sewn to the first and second furniture members.

Abstract: A dual drive system for a hydraulic pump and an air boost compressor is provided. Reversible power is transmitted to a shaft connected to clockwise and counterclockwise over-running clutches connected to different vehicle or equipment subsystems. Reversing the drive allows power to be alternately transmitted to one or the other of the subsystems. The invention includes utilizing the dual drive for hydraulic and air conditioning systems for an aircraft, with the provision of an additional drive motor providing constant power to one or more of the subsystems.
