Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to an improved meat chopper and method for using the chopper to chop large portions of food on a cooking surface. The improved chopper allows a user to chop large portions of ground meat at a time and allows the user to access meat in the corners of the cooking surface. The size and weight of the chopper allows a user to quickly chop large portions of meat. The stainless steel construction of the chopper makes the chopper easy to clean and reduces damage to the chopper during use. The chopper has a handle coupled to a frame containing multiple blades to chop the meat. The increased size of the chopper and spacing between the blades prevents meat from becoming stuck between the blades during use. The rectangular frame containing the blades acts as a blade itself, increasing the amount of meat separated with each press of the chopper into the meat.

The one or more crafting apparatus interface portions include a boss portion (38, 138) extending from the upper surface of the substantially planar body portion that are configured to be interfaced with the one or more boss-receiving cavities.

Abstract: A weather seal system is provided for sealing a perimeter of a vehicle sunroof. The system includes a mounting base having an outboard first channel, and an inboard second channel spaced apart from, and extending generally parallel to, the outboard first channel. At least two connecting portions are positioned between and connecting the first and second channels. A spine is supported by the at least two connecting portions so as to reside above the first and second channels when the mounting base is mounted on a vehicle. The spine extends generally parallel to the outboard first channel. At least a first and a second opposed weather strip retention projections extend from respective opposite first and second sides of the spine. A weather strip is structured to engage the opposed first and second weather strip retention projections so as to secure the weather strip to the spine.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to infrastructure for queryable supergraph subset representations. Briefly, in at least one implementations, an apparatus may comprise at least one processor of at least one computing device to obtain a source graph schema, obtain an input from a user, wherein the input from the user to at least specify one or more filters, generate one or more subset representations of the source graph schema based at least in part on the specified one or more filters, and provide access to the one or more subset representations of the source graph schema for one or more particular entities and deny access to one or more aspects of the source graph schema absent from the one or more subset representations for the one or more particular entities.

Abstract: A vehicle communication system includes an optical cable, a centralized hub device, and an antenna hub device. The centralized hub device is connected to a first end of the optical cable and is configured to receive radio frequency (RF) signals from multiple end devices. The centralized hub device is configured to convert the RF signals to respective optical carrier signals and transmit the optical carrier signals along the optical cable at different, non-overlapping wavelength bands of a combined optical signal. The antenna hub device is connected to a second end of the optical cable. The antenna hub device is configured to receive the combined optical signal and to convert the optical carrier signals thereof to RF signals, amplify the RF signals, and transmit the RF signals to one or more antennas.

Abstract: The mounting system may be utilized for towing vehicles wherein the mounting system may selectively accommodate either a fifth wheel hitch or a gooseneck hitch. The mounting system may include a structural frame member including at least one rail capable of being connected to a vehicle frame, wherein the rail includes at least one socket. The socket may be engaged with a receiving member, wherein the receiving member may be engaged with a leg of a fifth wheel hitch. A mid rail may be connected to the rails and may include a hitch ball socket that is capable of engagement with a hitch. Also provided is an underbed hitch mounting system having at least one socket and receiving member exposed above a bed of a vehicle. The system includes trim and ring brackets configured to cover the exposed socket and receiving members along the bed of the vehicle.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods, devices and compositions for degradable medical devices and/or compositions that provide local and/or systemic delivery of at least one active agent.

Abstract: The present invention comprises a set of interlocking panels arranged in stacked polygons to create a scalable, re-useable and flat-packable Christmas tree or display stand that substitutes for traditional Christmas trees in that it allows for use of standard string lights, garland, traditional hanging ornaments or also as a standalone stylized Christmas tree or display stand. In some embodiments, the panels could also be combined to form other objects.

Abstract: A pressure actuated water shutoff valve is presented. The shutoff valve comprises an upper housing and a lower housing where the upper housing is coupled to the lower housing. The lower housing has a water inlet and a water outlet with a flow passage therebetween. The lower housing includes a plunger seat configured to receive a shutoff plunger. The upper housing includes an chamber having a piston bore in which reciprocates an piston, coupled to the shutoff plunger. In response to a first pressure condition, the piston lifts the shutoff plunger off its seat allowing water to flow through the lower housing. In response to a second pressure condition, a biasing spring seals the plunger against its seat, shutting off water flow through the valve.

Abstract: The technology disclosed relates to a system and method for detecting when to diverge to a tangential conversation from a linearly structured steps of a cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) session in a series of sessions for a mental health disorder. The system includes logic to determine when to merge the tangential conversation back to flow of linearly structured steps in the therapy session. The system can bookmark the last completed step in the flow of linearly structured steps of the CBT therapy session before starting the tangential conversation. The system can calculate a return to CBT session score after each succeeding utterance from the patient in the tangential conversation. The system resumes flow of the linearly structured steps of the CBT session upon detecting that the return to CBT session score has exceeded a threshold.

Abstract: The present invention is a disposable cover that wraps around a pushcart handle, which protects the pushcart operators using the pushcart from possible contagions on the pushcart handle. The core components of the invention are the malleable metal, bendable frame, plastic cover. The invention can be used to protect pushcart operators from conditions, dirt, and possible disease-spreading methods on a pushcart at grocery stores, home supply stores, or other locations where pushcarts are re-used by multiple pushcart operators. Furthermore, it should be noted that this allows the store, or provider of pushcarts, to reduce workloads and cleaning items should they choose to provide the handles. Some stores may use them as a giveaway with their logo and pushcart operators would use the handle at another location. Pushcart operators will also feel safer as the handle they are using has been in their possession and is free from contagions.

Abstract: The technology disclosed relates to a system and method for remembering content received from a patient for future use and understood by computerized natural language processing during a chatbot therapy session. The system includes a graph of entities and relationships in an artificial memory graph data structure. The entity nodes in the graph represent entities that are related to a patient root node representing the patient. The entity nodes are connected to patient root node by one or more relationship edges that have named roles. The entity nodes and/or relationship edges can be slotted for at least a distinguishing name, a patient sentiment towards the entity and an entity state.
