  • Patent number: 11518492
    Abstract: A flooring system for enclosures or vehicles, such as an aircraft flooring architecture, includes a flooring panel with at least an upper layer, a core ply, and a bottom layer. The bottom layer of the flooring panel has a top face and a bottom face, an upper layer of the flooring panel has an upper face and a lower face, and a core ply of the flooring panel has an upper surface bonded to the lower face of the upper layer and a bottom surface bonded to the top face of the bottom layer. The bottom face of the bottom layer is located on a structural floor of an enclosure or vehicle, such as the aircraft, and the bottom layer of the flooring panel slides over the structural floor.

  • Patent number: 11479335
    Abstract: A magnetic perimeter attachment for an interior space of a vehicle, such as an aircraft or other such vehicle. The vehicle flooring section includes a magnetic tape attached to the structural floor of a vehicle and a spacer panel magnetically coupled to the magnetic tape, where the spacer panel is located on the perimeter of the vehicle flooring section. The magnetic tape includes a carrier layer having an acrylic or rubber adhesive material, which is for bonding to a structural floor panel of the vehicle. The tape also includes a magnetic material deposited in the carrier layer. The magnetic material and the adhesive material are located on opposite sides of the carrier layer.

  • Patent number: 11377194
    Abstract: The present disclosure corresponds to a floating floor attachment device connecting a flooring panel to a structural floor comprising a floor puck fixed to the structural floor and a puck housing connected to the flooring panel. The puck housing has a receptacle connected to the floor puck, wherein the receptacle forms with the floor puck a gap, which allows the floor puck to move within the receptacle. Additionally, the floating floor attachment device includes a gap control media, which is connected between the floor puck and the receptacle, wherein the gap control media allows aligning the floor puck with respect to the puck housing during non-load conditions and provide resistance to displacement to the floor puck during load conditions.

  • Patent number: 11225313
    Abstract: A spacer assembly for flooring systems, such as for aircraft flooring, includes a spacer panel and one or more flooring panels. The spacer panel includes a core layer and a bottom layer. The core layer has a top face and a bottom face and the bottom layer has a lower face and an upper face that is bonded to the bottom face of the core layer. The lower face of the bottom layer is located adjacent to a structural floor and the bottom layer slides over the structural floor. The one or more flooring panels connect to the top face of the core layer, where the flooring panel and the spacer panel slide over the structural floor. Two or more flooring panels can be connected, such as by an adhesive material, to a spacer panel with a sealant member between the flooring panels to avoid infiltrations of liquids.

  • Patent number: 8032661
    Abstract: In accordance with the automatic peripheral device sharing, a peripheral device that has been newly installed on a device is detected and is shared with one or more additional devices coupled to the device. A notification of the peripheral device is automatically published to the one or more additional devices. This notification includes an indication of how the one or more additional devices can access the peripheral device. Each of the one or more additional devices can receive this notification and determine whether the peripheral device can be automatically installed on that device without user input. For each of the one or more additional devices, the peripheral device is installed on that device only if the peripheral device can be automatically installed on that device without user input.

  • Patent number: 7461090
    Abstract: A method and system are provided for use in a computing environment for selecting and arranging media items as output. The media items may include photographs, videos, musical selections, or other types of media items. Selection components select multiple media items for output. A source selection component selects media items from at least one source. A query component searches media items from the selected source based on tagged metadata in accordance with a user selection. Weighting tools may be applied to cause a first set of selected media items to be selected with a first frequency and a second set of selected media items to be selected with a second frequency. A sorting component may organize the output in a user-selected order.

  • Publication number: 20070240098
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for defining a default handler software application in response to an event at a computer. An event, for example, a user opening a file with a specific extension or accessing a uniform resource locator (URL) with a specific protocol, may trigger the operating system to instantiate a user-level default handler program associated with the event type and the specific user. Users may define user-level default handlers through a centralized user interface maintained by the operating system. During the application installation process, an application may register lists of supported events that the application is capable of handling.

  • Publication number: 20070180501
    Abstract: System(s), techniques, and/or method(s) (“tools”) are described that enable a user to elevate his or her rights. The tools may do so by switching a user to an account having higher rights or a different, higher-rights context of a same account. The tools may elevate a user's rights after a user enters a secure access sequence, such as Control+Alt+Delete, clicks on a button, or enters credentials. The tools may also enable a user to identify tasks that need higher rights to be performed by visually correlating graphic indicia with these tasks.

  • Publication number: 20070043955
    Abstract: Methods and systems to provide a user tile to a user of a computer device relating to a logon process are provided. In one aspect, the user tile is configured to supply feedback to the user regarding the status of the logon process through a graphical representation. In at least one embodiment, the user tile may be individualized to a user or a class of users. Further aspects of the invention relate to methods and systems to select and display a user tile comprising graphical representations to provide feedback to a user on the method of logging on the computer device. In one embodiment, a plurality of user tiles are used to provide feedback to the user. In one such embodiment, one tile may be used to provide feedback on how to log on to the computer, while one or more additional tiles may be used to provide feedback on the status of the logon procedures for different applications.

  • Publication number: 20050278748
    Abstract: A system and related techniques prepare and condition the installation of new networked service or application components, such as Internet services, based on an individual subscriber's subscribed-to services, features and other components. A subscriber to an Internet service may choose to add, for example, a componentized subscription to a music or video download service to their access plan. When the user inserts a CDROM or accesses a Web site for installation, the user may be prompted for a username or passport-type object to authenticate their account. The user may then be presented with a set of available service selections, extensions or enhancements to choose to add to their plan. Those available selections may be prefiltered or prequalified, for example, based on geographic location, account spending or access limits, language or other criteria.
