The outlet is configured to couple the vacuum separation device to a conduit of a vacuum suction device. A flexible conduit is configured to couple to the inlet of the housing in a use position. A plurality of clips are configured to move between a stowed position and an extended position. In the extended position, each clip is configured to engage the vacuum suction device.

Abstract: A vacuum tool that is removably couplable to a hose or wand of a vacuum.

Abstract: A system and method of receiving and processing granular printing and curing data, and graphically displaying data to improve quality and production. The outputted data can include graphical information illustrating relationships between important multivariate data in a typical industrial printing or converting process. One or more chemical sensors can measure curing data and communicate the data for processing and control of the subject machines of the system.

Abstract: A door for an automotive vehicle has a first portion and a second portion. The first portion pivots with respect to an A pillar and the second portion pivots with respect to the floor deck. The second portion extends toward the ground in an open position. At least one stair on the second portion assists with ingress and egress to the vehicle.

Abstract: A fan assembly includes a fan housing including a shroud that at least partially defines an airflow chamber, a battery receptacle supported on the shroud, a first grille positioned adjacent a first end of the airflow chamber, a fan supported within the airflow chamber and rotatably coupled to one of the first grille or the shroud, and a motor supported on the other of the first grille or the shroud. The motor is operable to drive rotation of the fan and thereby generate airflow through the airflow chamber. The fan assembly further includes a base coupled to the fan housing. The base is operable to support the fan housing in multiple configurations to direct the airflow in multiple directions.

Abstract: An image processing device includes an input device which receives image adjustment selections from an associated user interface device. Memory of the device stores a user interface generator, which generates a background adjustment selector for presenting to a user on the user interface device; a background adjustment component which, for each of a plurality of pixels of an input image computes adjusted color values, as a function of at least one of: (a) a background adjustment factor computed for the respective pixel, and (b) a background class derived from the computed background adjustment factor, the background adjustment factor being a function of a background strength of the pixel and a luminance strength of the pixel; and an image output component outputs an output image derived from the adjusted color values for the plurality of pixels. A processor implements the background adjustment component and image output component.

Abstract: A vacuum tool is configured to be removably coupled to a hose or wand of a vacuum. The vacuum tool comprises a first portion, a second portion, a flexible portion and a mechanical joint. The first portion and the second portion are connected by the flexible portion and coupled by the mechanical joint, so these portions are in fluid communication from various angles. And the mechanical joint comprises a detent and multiple recesses coupled to the detent. As a result, a user can use the vacuum tool in various situations more conveniently by bending the mechanical joint.
