Abstract: A system includes a computing device that includes a memory configured to store instructions. The computing device also includes a processor to execute the instructions to perform operations that include receiving a request from an imaging device indicating that the imaging device is unable to present textual content of an asset. The request includes one or more attributes of the textual content of the asset and the request is sent from the imaging device absent user input. Operations also include identifying an appropriate amount of font information from the received one or more attributes for the imaging device to present the asset, and, providing the identified font information to the imaging device for presenting the asset.

Abstract: The present invention pertains to systems and methods for measuring power output, as in an athletic activity such as cycling. One embodiment relates to a force sensing device configured to be mounted on the bottom surface of a shoe as part of a mechanical linkage through which force is exerted. For cycling, the force sensor is mounted on the bottom surface of a cycling shoe and fitted with a cleat that interlockingly engages a bicycle pedal. To measure both positive and negative pressures on the pedal, the force sensor is pre-stressed with a compressive load to an intermediate point in its dynamic range. Strains that further compress or decompress the force sensor can thus be measured. The computing module mathematically converts the measured pressures, positive and negative, to a measurement of total power exerted by the rider. In addition, the computing module may utilize cyclical regularities in the signal to compute the rider's cadence (pedal revolutions per unit of time).

Abstract: An adsorbent article having a base body or matrix onto which is applied an adsorptive coating. The body or matrix can be a honeycomb matrix or structure having a plurality of cells defining a plurality of passages extending through the body. The adsorptive coating comprises an adsorptive media, such as activated carbon or ion exchange resin, that is bound by a polymeric adhesive or resin. A reactant material is preferably included in the adsorptive coating. The adsorbent article has a minimal pressure loss therethrough.

Abstract: A choke 20 is provided for suppressing radio-frequency interference of a brush-type motor. The choke includes a single wire having a portion wound about a coil axis A to define a plurality of coils 24 including two outermost coils 26 and 28. An attaching structure 30 extends from one of the outermost coils and includes a loop structure 42. The loop structure is constructed and arranged to be inserted into a slot 58 in a brush card 48 and moved into hooked relation with a retaining member 60 of the brush card that is associated with the slot so as secure the choke to the brush card. At least a portion of the attaching structure is constructed and arranged to be in electrical connection with a brush 56 of a motor when the choke is secured to the brush card. An elongated end portion 44 of the choke extends directly from the other of the outermost coils.

Abstract: A cover unit for an industrial food mixer includes two clamshell-like covers that are hingeably mounted at the proximal ends thereof on the mixer to move in a plane that is parallel to the plane containing the top rim of the bowl in which mixing is being carried out. A splash rib is dependently mounted on each cover as is a splash edge. The splash rib and edge are in the forms of compound curves, and an arcuate cutout on one edge of each cover matches with the cutout on the other cover to define an opening through which beater or agitator elements of the mixer extend into the mixing bowl. The covers move between an open condition uncovering the bowl and a closed condition covering the bowl. A lock mechanism is used to maintain the covers in the locked condition.

Abstract: An excitation system for a gas laser featuring a multiplicity of gain channels uses a resonant cavity to provide broad band RF power division and impedance matching to the multiplicity of gain channels. Integral anode and grid resonant tank circuits featuring positive feedback may be employed to provide a self-excited power oscillator having a very high power capability with good efficiency at low cost. A smaller and higher frequency multi-channel excitation system fabricated from stripline resonator elements may be used for driving small scale multi-channel lasers. A common optical extraction system features either a stable, an unstable, or a hybrid optical cavity mode, with phase-locked or non-phase locked output performance, achieved via external or self-injection.
