Abstract: One or more techniques and/or systems are disclosed for a gastrostomy tube having a proximal portion and a distal portion with at least one lumen extending therethrough. The proximal portion includes first, second, and third ports that are each operably coupled to the proximal portion with the first port configured to provide for suction of contents from a patient's stomach, and the third port configured to provide fluid to an inflatable balloon. The distal portion includes a plurality of first openings configured to transport contents to and from the patient's stomach, at least one second opening configured to cooperate with the second port to provide sump-type function, and a curved portion having a gradual bend of approximately 45°-135°. The curved portion directs a distal end of the tube radially outward and away from a longitudinal axis of the tube.

Abstract: This disclosure describes techniques for automatically identifying endpoint devices based on differing power loads drawn by the endpoint devices. In some instances, the endpoint devices are distributed about one or more facilities, such as item handling facilities, and may comprise an array of sensors for tracking inventory items within, into, and out of these facilities. These sensors may include cameras, weight sensors, RFID readers, microphones, and the like. Further, multiple ones of these sensors may couple to a power injector (e.g., a power-over-Ethernet (POE) injector) that provides both data and power to each sensor over a cable. The power injector may in turn couple to a network switch and/or a controller, which may identify the endpoint devices based on their modulated power loads.

Abstract: The present invention relates generally to a display apparatus. More specifically, the invention relates to an apparatus that displays large items, such as bicycles, safely and in a manner that enhances sales experience. The present invention also relates to associated kits and packages.

Abstract: A stand for maintaining a bicycle in an upright position, wherein the stand consists of non-movable parts comprising a base having a front end, a back end, and a middle portion, wherein each of the front end, back end and middle portion comprise at least one inclined member and wherein the inclined members are configured along an axis of the base that bisects the front and back ends and middle portion, and wherein the inclined members are positioned relative to each other and in a shape that allows the distal ends of the inclined members to be tangent to the circumference of the tire of one of the wheels of the bicycle and to contact different portions of the tire thereby holding the wheel in place and maintaining the bicycle in an upright position.
