Abstract: Described herein are examples of a perforating device for perforating a textile material, such as carpet or textile underlayment. In an example, the perforating device includes a multi-blade assembly rotationally driven by a motor. The blade assembly can be coupled to a rotary shaft such that the blades rotate with the shaft.

An anvil can be positioned below and adjacent the blade edges such that the teeth of the blades touch or nearly touch the anvil surface. The perforating cuts produce a textile that can be customized in terms of its size and shape at an installation site by hand, and without the need for any specialized tools or equipment.

Abstract: A fastening system includes a bolt having a head, a shaft member defining an axis of rotation, and a locking member with wings. The bolt is insertable into a receiving hole formed in a surface, wherein upon rotation of the bolt from an initial orientation to a second orientation, the wings engage with underside surfaces of the receiving hole to prevent withdrawal. A locking mechanism is insertable through aligned holes in the shaft member after rotation to prevent both rotation and removal of the bolt. The locking mechanism may be configured for removal from either an interior side or exterior side of the surface. The system enables secure connections that can be easily assembled and disassembled while supporting objects between the bolt head and surface.

Abstract: Documents are often generated using a customer communication management (CCM) application that utilizes rules to select and/or modify certain fragments of a document. By analyzing the rules and content that produced a certain fragment, a second CCM application may be automatically provided with the rules, such as when the first set of rules are not available for porting to a second system. Accordingly, a server may access a rule comprising a condition, a document fragment, and a rule identifier. A server may generate a first document to comprise visible content and hidden content. Generating the first document may comprise evaluating the rule and, when the rule is true, including the document fragment as a portion of the visible content and including the rule identifier as a portion of hidden content. A server may provide the first document to a destination.

Abstract: Methods and systems for predictively generating an insurance claim in response to detecting an imminent insurance-related event are provided. According to certain aspects, a smart home controller or insurance provider remote processor may store a first set of data received from smart devices disposed on, or proximate to, a property. This data may be analyzed to detect that an insurance-related event is imminent and calculate a likelihood that a property owner will file an insurance claim in response to damage caused by the imminent insurance-related event. If there is a sufficient likelihood that an insurance claim will be filed, the smart home controller or remote processor may store a second set of data received from the smart devices. Subsequently, according to certain aspects, the second set of data may be analyzed to prepopulate an automatically generated insurance claim with information detailing damage to the property caused by the insurance-related event.
