The at least one tool rod may have variable shapes, lengths, diameters and radii such that the rotation of the at least one tool rod about the axis of the tool holder on the sheet material simulates an up and down, in and out, and/or side-to-side vibration motion.

Abstract: A fluid application system includes a fluid supply line connected to a fluid supply, a plurality of nozzle assemblies connected in fluid communication with the fluid supply line, and a return line. Each nozzle assembly includes an inlet connected to the fluid supply line, a nozzle defining a spray outlet, a return line outlet, and an electrically actuated three-way valve fluidly connected between the inlet and each of the spray outlet and the return line outlet. The three-way valve is configured to alternately direct fluid from the inlet to the return line outlet and the spray outlet. The return line is connected in fluid communication with the return line outlet of each nozzle assembly, and is configured to direct fluid from the return line outlet to the fluid supply line.

Abstract: An accessory e-cigarette and filter assembly that is essentially a holder for both a vaporizer/e-cigarette and an exhale filter is disclosed. The device also allows for removably pairing an exhale filter to a vaporizer and provides impact protection thereto. In the preferred embodiment, a sleeve with parallel channels provides for the filter and e-cigarette to be juxtaposed however a mouthpiece for the filter and a mouthpiece for the e-cigarette are at opposite ends.

Abstract: As an accessory to electronic cigarette devices, and/or integrated into same, a personal air filter having uniquely treated and shaped graphite is disclosed herein. The exhale filter of the present invention more particularly couples to a pen-type e-cigarette having a commercially known 510-standard distillate cartridge for filtering harmful particulates or gaseous pollutants associated with electronic cigarette usage.

Abstract: In an aspect, a computerized method for generating processed files of deposition testimony transcript designations may include accessing a file containing designations of contents of a textual transcript, quarantining errors in the designations, and generating a processed file containing processed designations of contents of the textual transcript having quarantined errors removed therefrom. In another aspect, a computerized method of generating designations for a deposition testimony transcript may include accessing designation information regarding designations made with respect to text of the deposition testimony transcript, accessing rules for generating designations based on the designation information, and generating the designations based on the rules.

Abstract: Electric fluid flow monitoring apparatus, and agricultural fluid application systems and methods including the same are described. The fluid flow monitoring apparatus generally includes an outer housing defining a cavity. The outer housing includes an inlet for fluid to enter the cavity and an outlet for fluid to exit the cavity. Fluid flows through the cavity from the inlet to the outlet. The flow monitoring apparatus also includes an inner housing defining an interior cavity and positioned within the outer housing cavity such that fluid flows through the interior cavity. The inner housing is removably connected to the outer housing such that the inner housing is interchangeable with another inner housing having a different cross-sectional profile. The flow monitoring apparatus further includes a traveler movably disposed within the interior cavity.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides, in one embodiment, a filter device comprising a mouthpiece, a filter assembly in communication with the mouthpiece for filtering air exhaled into the mouthpiece, and an outlet check valve which permits air to be exhaled through the mouthpiece into the filter assembly, and substantially prohibits air from being inhaled from the filter assembly into the mouthpiece.

Abstract: Electric fluid flow monitoring apparatus, and agricultural fluid application systems and methods including the same are described. The fluid flow monitoring apparatus generally includes a housing, a sensor assembly, and a traveler. The housing defines an interior cavity, and includes an inlet for fluid to enter the interior cavity and an outlet for fluid to exit the interior cavity. The sensor assembly is disposed in the interior cavity, and extends longitudinally in the direction of fluid flow. The traveler is movably supported by the sensor assembly such that fluid flow through the interior cavity causes the traveler to move longitudinally along the sensor assembly. The sensor assembly detects a longitudinal position of the traveler relative to the sensor assembly.
