Abstract: A method and system for controlling a crown height associated with a nip profile includes adjusting pressure of a pressure roll. This may influence the shape of the pressure roll which may influence the nip profile. This may help prevent wrinkling and extend the life of the pressure roll. The pressure roll may be configured to have a varying wall thickness across a width of the pressure roll. The pressure roll may be used for a web application.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for the organization, management, and graphical display of multiple logically related entities. In some embodiments, the systems and methods provide the real-time display of status and location information for a fleet of tracked vehicles. In some embodiments, the systems and methods permit the automatic clustering of assets based on a user's view of an underlying map. In some embodiments, the assets are vehicles that are a part of a managed fleet. In some embodiments, the assets are logically arranged into clusters of like assets. In some embodiments, the clusters provide graphical indications of status or class information of their underlying assets.

Abstract: Vehicle management systems and associated processes can consider energy consumption when selecting routes for fleet vehicles. Vehicle management systems and associated processes are described that, in certain embodiments, evaluate vehicle energy usage based on factors such as terrain or elevation, vehicle characteristics, driver characteristics, road conditions, traffic, speed limits, stop time, turn information, traffic information, and weather information, and the like. The features described herein may also be implemented for non-fleet vehicles, such as in personal vehicle navigation systems.

The support structure can comprise a support frame defining a perimeter and an aperture, a plurality of ribs comprising a carbon composite material extending across the aperture of the support frame and carried by the support frame, and openings between the plurality of ribs. A film can be disposed over, carried by, and span the plurality of ribs and disposed over and span the openings.

Abstract: Apparatus for controlling the rotational speed of a wheel of a skateboard or other similar wheeled device includes a lug adapter projecting away from a wheel axle, a wheel contact member for engaging the wheel face, wheel contact member engagement structure applying a frictional force to the wheel contact member and manually operable control structure to vary the magnitude of the frictional force.

Abstract: Currently vehicles typically include an engine computer that outputs diagnostic trouble codes (DTC) that are indicative of some fault condition in a vehicle. DTCs can tell a specific problem with a particular part such as that a cylinder in an engine is misfiring, but do not provide any indication as to the cause of the problem and do not propose any solutions for solving the problem. This disclosure advantageously describes systems that can analyze DTCs and other telematics data using crowdsourcing principles to recommend vehicle maintenance and other solutions.

Abstract: Apparatus for holding and displaying an aeronautical chart or other type of map includes an elongated base member having two elongated map support members extending from and rotatably attached to the elongated base member. The apparatus also includes a magnetic positioner and a scale/ruler releasably connected to the base member and used with a chart or map when removed therefrom.

Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods for restraining a biological structure are provided. In one example, a biological structure restraining device can include a barrier structure, an opening defined in the barrier structure, and at least two contact points positioned adjacent to the opening and oriented to contact the biological structure, wherein the barrier structure and the opening are structurally positioned to receive the cell at the contact points. In another aspect, the device can also include a biological structure manipulator having a structure operable to press the biological structure against the contact points. In yet another aspect, the device can further include a biological structure injector having a structure operable to be inserted through the opening and into the biological structure, wherein the biological structure manipulator is operable to maintain the biological structure against the contact points as the biological structure injector is inserted into the biological structure.

Abstract: Customization features for providing users with the ability to customize various aspects of a vehicle management system are described. These customization features can include functionality for generating custom reports based on vehicle parameters, including diagnostic codes. The customization features can also include features for customizing alerts based on vehicle parameters and features for customizing nomenclature in the vehicle management system.

Abstract: A computer-implemented user contribution method is provided. The method includes retrieving event data posted by a plurality of users related to a first user, the event data including indications of at least one geographic area. The event data is compared with predetermined trigger data. A quality value of the at least one geographic area is determined based on the comparison of the event data with predetermined trigger data, and an indication of the quality value of the at least one geographic area is transmitted to a second user. A user contribution based mapping system is further provided.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the formulation and process for preparation of a fried egg product which may be frozen for future heating within a microwave or other oven for consumption by an individual. Various ingredients are added and mixed to each of the liquid egg white and liquid yolk portions. The liquid egg white portion is preheated and then deposited within a mold for slow cooking under controlled temperature and humidity conditions. The liquid yolk portion is preheated and then is added to the mold for placement on the egg white portion. Following a short period of cooking the mold containing the formulated fried eggs is transported to a freezer unit for freezing, packaging, and storage. At a future time the frozen formulated fried egg product may be retrieved for thawing and cooking for consumption by an individual.

Abstract: The present process relates to a formulation for a food product and preparation of a pre-formed filling unit for the provision of a consumable food product containing eggs, which may be refrigerated and/or frozen for future heating within a microwave oven for consumption by an individual. The process involves the initial step of acquisition of liquid eggs which may be scrambled. The liquid eggs are cooked whereupon the cooked liquid eggs are combined with other ingredients. The temperature of the combined ingredients is regulated and/or controlled during processing. The combined and mixed food product may then be inserted into a mold to provide a desired shape. After cooking the consumable food product may be separated from the mold whereupon the consumable food article may be refrigerated and/or frozen for future reheating as a portion of a breakfast or other consumable food article.
