Abstract: Certain embodiments of the disclosure may include devices, systems, and methods for photographing and dimensioning objects in a photo booth. The devices may include multiple sets of components, and the multiple sets of components may be mounted in different locations of the booth as desired and as needed, for example, depending on the object to be photographed and dimensioned. The photo booth components and functions can be operated and managed via central processing and via user interface and can be in communication with remote computers.

Abstract: A beverage carton dispenser for self-service coffee distribution is provided with passive thermal insulation, a locking means to prevent undesirable beverage-carton slip-out during times when a user employs a steep pouring angle. A vent aperture is provided to relieve inner-air pressure when a milk carton is being installed or removed. A pour handle and re-useable refrigerant gel are also provided. The device is simple, inexpensive and solves the problem of providing a commercially viable counter-top milk dispenser which keeps milk cold in a room-temperature environment without the use of open ice with dripping and puddling water and without active refrigeration requiring an energy input. The presence of the pour handle makes dispensing the beverage easier, safer, and more convenient and provides the user with greater control over pouring the beverage from the container.

Abstract: An improved adjustable diamond faceting platform is described of the type adapted to be mounted on a tong and suitable for supporting a dop. The adjustable diamond faceting platform of the present invention includes a worm gear mounted on the platform. The worm gear has an axis of rotation and includes means for connecting a dop to the worm gear for common rotation about the axis. A worm is rotatably mounted on the platform proximate to the worm gear for meshingly engaging the latter and for rotating the same with corresponding rotation of the worm. The worm is mounted with clearance for limited transverse movements in directions towards and away from the worm gear. The worm is provided with smooth cylindrical shaft portions at each end disposed within the platform. Low friction sleeves are mounted on the shaft portions and adjustable bearing means, in the form of set screws, are mounted on the platform for engaging the sleeves and applying selective pressures to the latter in the direction of the worm gear.
