Abstract: A jewelry ring designed to be worn on the finger of a hand, having rotating halves that when rotated against one another cause the legs of a Horse or other figure attached to the outward face to move in a naturally articulate manner or run. The rings assembly consists of an inner and outer cylinder that contain one or more inner gears or friction driven cylinders which are positioned perpendicular relative to the center axis of the rotating cylinders and are held in place by the two cylinders. When the cylinders of the ring are rotated in opposing directions the cylinders that are positioned perpendicular to the center axis rotate. The rotational movement of the cylinders that are positioned perpendicular to the center axes cause the leg elements, consisting of upper and lower sections, connected to the cylinder and the Horse or other figure by rotational joints, to move in a fashion designed to mimic the natural leg movement of the horse or other figure on the ring or to appear to run.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a printing ink composition comprising a polymer selected from a poly(styrene-maleic acid) co-polymer having an acid number of ?225 mg KOH/g, a poly(styrene-maleamic acid) co-polymer having an acid number of ?225 mg KOH/g or a combination thereof, wherein the co-polymer is a lithium, sodium, potassium, ammonium or quaternary ammonium salt or combinations thereof. The printing ink composition is suitable for directly printing onto non-porous substrates particularly without the need for a chemical primer layer or chemical pre-treatment.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, non-transitory computer-readable media, and methods for generating contextually relevant transcripts of voice recordings based on social networking data. For instance, the disclosed systems receive a voice recording from a user corresponding to a message thread including the user and one or more co-users. The disclosed systems analyze acoustic features of the voice recording to generate transcription-text probabilities. The disclosed systems generate term weights for terms corresponding to objects associated with the user within a social networking system by analyzing user social networking data. Using the contextually aware term weights, the disclosed systems adjust the transcription-text probabilities. Based on the adjusted transcription-text probabilities, the disclosed systems generate a transcript of the voice recording for display within the message thread.

Abstract: A handguard assembly for a firearm includes an outer member disposed forward of an upper receiver of the firearm where, a barrel nut disposed within the rear cavity, and at least one alignment member. The outer member includes a rear cavity and a threaded portion. The at least one alignment member contacts both the outer member and the upper receiver for alignment.

Abstract: Methods and systems for optimizing one or more imaging settings for a machine vision job are disclosed herein. An example method includes detecting, by one or more processors, an initiation trigger that initiates the machine vision job. The example method further includes, responsive to detecting the initiation trigger, capturing, by an imaging device, a first image of a target object in accordance with a first configuration of the one or more imaging settings. The example method further includes, responsive to capturing the first image of the target object, automatically adjusting, by the one or more processors, the one or more imaging settings to a second configuration that includes at least one different imaging setting from the first configuration; and capturing, by the imaging device, a second image of the target object in accordance with the second configuration of the one or more imaging settings.

Abstract: An ejector mechanism for a firearm includes an ejector disposed at a forward face of a bolt. The ejector includes a hole designed to provide clearance for the firing pin to pass at least partially through the ejector. The hole may include a counterbore on a rear side of the ejector.

Abstract: One embodiment comprises a non-transitory computer readable medium comprising computer-executable instructions executable to access a conversation-enabled document and expose the conversation-enabled document on a conversation channel as a conversation into the conversation-enabled document. The conversation-enabled document can comprise a conversation component for controlling a conversation interface into the conversation-enabled document, the conversation component specifying conversation steps, routing between conversation steps and a document variable to accept a conversation participant response. The computer-executable instructions can be executable to set a document variable value in the conversation-enabled document based on the participant response received via the conversation interface; and render the conversation-enabled document to a response channel using the document variable and the page template.

Abstract: An adapter (1) for connecting a dispenser to a container having a neck with an interior passage comprises a body portion (2) with a container end (27) and a dispenser end (23, 25) opposite to the container end (27). The body portion (2) has a longitudinal axis (21) centrally extending between the dispenser end (23, 25) and the container end (27), and an essentially cylindrical outer surface (22). The body portion (2) comprises sealing lamellas (24) outwardly extending from the outer surface (22). The sealing lamellas (24) of the body portion (2) are spaced from each other along the longitudinal axis (21). Each of the sealing lamellas (24) of the body portion (2) has a root end adjoining the outer surface (22) of the body portion (2). The root ends of at least two neighboring sealing lamellas (24) have different thicknesses.

Abstract: Systems, methods and products for accessing a set of electronic document templates, identifying instances of common document content such as content items which are semantically similar, and generating component templates containing the common content. Semantically similar content may be identified by analyzing content for factors such as expressed sentiment, included keyphrases, recognizable entities, expressed topics, assigning values to content based on these factors, and determining similarity based on comparisons of the assigned values. Component templates may also be generated based on types of content that include identical text or images, content that has a predefined level of similarity rather than being identical, content that has common rules, scripting logic or variables, metadata, etc. The component templates may be generated automatically, or in response to user instructions.
