Abstract: A multi-game ticket assembly and associated method of making include a substrate having a front surface and a back surface. A first game play area is provided on the front surface and includes a plurality of game symbols for play of a first game. A second game play area is provided on the back surface and includes one or more windows defined therein for play of a second game partially embodied on the back surface. A fold line indication on the front surface and divides the substrate into a first portion and a second portion. The second portion is foldable onto the first portion in a folded state of the substrate such that the front surface of the second portion is against the front surface of the first portion and the one or more windows align with the first game play area. The game symbols in the first game play area that are visible to a player through the one or more windows in the folded state of the substrate determine an outcome of the second game.

Abstract: Presented herein are methods and devices for designing dental components, such as physical models of a patient's anatomy, crowns and bridges. An operator of a prosthetic designing system can receive information, such as from a scanner, which provides information on the topology of the patient's dentition. The operator can use this information to design a custom prosthetic to fit the patient. Part of the designing process involves using a finish line defined for a preparation as a segmentation line for a physical die corresponding to the preparation, and using a path of draw line as an insertion axis line for a dental prosthetic.

Abstract: A vacuum sweeper vehicle has a sweeper body including a frame. A pair of front wheels are supported by an axle apparatus at a forward end of the sweeper body. The axle apparatus is constructed to provide a space between the front wheels. A pair of rear wheels are supported at a rearward end of the sweeper body. A container is coupled to the sweeper body for receiving debris. A suction hose extends between the container and a vacuum nozzle proximal a forward end of the body. The suction hose extends through the space between the the front wheels. A suction device draws the debris from the nozzle, into the container, and a brush coupled to a forward end of the sweeper body sweeps debris from a ground surface.

Abstract: A juice dispensing apparatus particularly designed for dispensing a “not from concentrate juice” packaged in a bag in a box format, the apparatus having a compartment in which the bag in a box is mounted, a thermoelectric device for cooling the compartment and a piezoelectric device for agitating the juice in the bag to thereby maintain the juice in a suspension. The apparatus requires minimal maintenance while permitting the dispensing of fruit juices or vegetable juices which are not reconstituted from a concentrate.
