Abstract: Systems and methods are described for transferring content to and from an aircraft. Content can be divided into one or more subsets that each contains some or all of the content. Each of the subsets can be transferred to one or more mobile computing devices via a wireless network, and then transferred from the mobile computing device one onboard or departed from the aircraft. In this manner, content can be updated more regularly and at a lesser expense than traditional avenues for updating content. Rewards can be used to incentivize participants to accept the temporary storage of a subset of the content on their mobile computing device.

Abstract: An automatic lateral arm awning system for a recreational vehicle includes awning material having a first and a second end, a roller secured to the material first end for wrapping said awning material thereabout and a header secured to the material second end. A frame is provided for enclosing the roller and awning material and sealing with the header in order to prevent wind-generated noise upon driving of the recreational vehicle. A pair of spring loaded arms interconnecting the frame and said header for urge the header away from the frame upon rotation of the roller in one direction and an electric motor, disposed within the roller, rotates the roller. The awning material unrolls from the roller and extends outwardly from the frame upon rotation of the roller in the one direction and wraps around said roller upon rotation of the roller in an opposite direction. Awning material stretch is accommodated in order to insure sealing between said header and said frame.

Abstract: The window awning assembly includes an awning and an elongate roller tube for receiving the awning with the awning being rotatably disposed around the roller tube. An elongate awning case is provided which encloses the roller tube and awning, with the roller tube being mounted for rotation within the case. The case includes a main section which is adapted for mounting to a surface and a movable lead rail. The main section and the lead rail engage one another to totally enclose the roller tube and awning when the awning is rolled onto the roller tube. At least two spaced apart support arms are attached between the lead rail and a mounting surface and a coupling system is provided for enabling the support arms to be attached to the lead rail at various positions along the lead rail in order that the lead rail and awning can extend beyond the spacing of the support arms.
