  • Patent number: 11222371
    Abstract: A distributed network transaction system and method includes a central exchange computer connected via the Internet (world wide web) to multiple remote computers associated with, for example, individual brokers. A central database is provided with the exchange computer and each remote computer can have a respective database for information that the individual brokers was to maintain separate from the system. E-commerce transactions are conducted by the system, which performs a number of transaction-related functions, such as pushing tickets up to the system for sale, purchasing tickets online, shipping, web site-related and bookkeeping. The system and methodology accommodate price event functions where non real-time tickets can be sold and the orders filled with tickets acquired on the system.

  • Publication number: 20100078514
    Abstract: The present invention provides a spool holding device. The spool holding device in several embodiments includes at least two separate mechanical devices for supporting a cross bar between to vertical supports. Each mechanical device can be comprised of three primary components, two gripping elements connected by a leveraged bar support element. The leveraged bar support element can be adapted to hold a cross bar member. In several embodiments the levered bar support element has a notch for holding a cross member on one end, is connected to a gripping element on the other end and a second gripping element connected between the notch and the other gripping element. Both gripping elements are connected to leveraged bar support element in a way that allows for at least partial free rotation of each element, for example a bolt, washer and nut arrangement could be used.
