Abstract: A mechanism is provided to review and verify provenance of analytic execution by a contract analytic binding and provenance system. The mechanism is activated to execute a set of analytics for a contract and verifies outcomes of the analytics before writing them to a blockchain network. The mechanism evaluates the provenance data records stored on peer ledgers and establishes transparency of the outcomes by validating consensus between characteristics of the provenance data.

Abstract: A mechanism is provided to implement a contract analytic binding and provenance system. The mechanism loads contract rules for an agreement between a plurality of contract parties and creates an analytic entry per rule to form a set of analytic entries, Each analytic entry is associated with an executable analytic function. The mechanism assigns each analytic entry a directed acyclic graph vertex. The mechanism confirms alignment between the contract rules and the set of analytic entries and stores the set of analytic entries in peer ledgers associated with the plurality of contract parties. The mechanism activates the set of analytic entries responsive to confirming provenance of the peer ledgers associated with the plurality of contract parties.

Abstract: A stand mixer includes a column, a column rail mounted to the column and a bowl support mounted to the column rail such that the bowl support is vertically translatable along the column. A bowl is mounted to the bowl support. A fine adjustment apparatus is configured for adjusting a height of the bowl on the bowl support. The fine adjustment apparatus includes a cam rotatably mounted on the column. A cam tab on the column rail engages the cam. The cam and cam tab are configured such that the bowl support vertically translates in relation to the column as the cam rotates.

Abstract: Embodiments are directed toward an insert for an inflatable boat having a hull and an inflatable peripheral tube that define a boat cockpit. The insert has a rigid floor and a rigid peripheral sidewall that define an insert cockpit. The insert is configured to register with the boat cockpit while the floor of the insert covers most of the upper surface of the hull and while the peripheral sidewall of the insert covers most of the inner surface of the peripheral tube. Accordingly, the insert facilitates increasing rigidity of the inflatable boat while reducing snaggable features in the inflatable boat.

Abstract: A slewing ring bearing includes an outer race and an inner race rotatable relative to the outer race. At least one of the outer race or the inner race is split into a first portion and a separate, second portion. The slewing ring bearing also has a plurality of roller elements arranged between one or more raceways defined by the inner and outer races. The first and second portions of at least one of the inner or outer races are coupled together via a threaded interface therebetween so as to establish a predetermined preload for the slewing ring bearing.

Abstract: A stabilizing apparatus for a waterborne vessel is disclosed, the stabilizing apparatus comprising a stabilizer unit, said stabilizer unit comprising: an elongate main body suitable for attachment to said a waterborne vessel; a stabilizing fin member rotatably coupled to said elongate main body about a first axis of rotation; and a drive apparatus attached to said main body and operatively coupled to said stabilizing fin member.

Abstract: A composition for a shaft end closure that includes a first component that can be a plastic material and at least one, or both, of a second component and a third component, the second and third components being different than the first material. The second and third components can enhance the detection of the composition and/or of the shaft end closure by different types of electronic detection devices. The second component can comprise a ferrous and/or non-ferrous metal material, including, for example, a plurality of metal flakes that are detectable by metal detection devices. The third component can be a compound, including, for example, barium, that is detectable by X-ray devices. The second and third components can comprise from about 1% to about 20% by weight of the composition.

Abstract: A stabilising apparatus for a waterborne vessel is disclosed, the stabilising apparatus comprising a stabiliser unit, said stabiliser unit comprising: a main body suitable for attachment to said a waterborne vessel; a stabilising fin member rotatably coupled to said main body about a first axis of rotation; and a drive apparatus attached to said main body and operatively coupled to said stabilising fin member.

Abstract: A double bladed (opposite) coulter assembly is provided. A second (opposite or mirrored) coulter blade is mounted on the same coulter assembly thereby equalizing the load realized by the equipment and eliminating the draft. The second (opposite or mirrored) coulter blade reduces wear on the coulter assembly and reduces the number of coulters required by one half per equivalent tool bar thereby increasing operational efficiency of the equipment.

Abstract: A method, programmed medium and system are provided for implementing a prebuilt and encrypted personal identification information (PII) profile which resides only on a user's computer and is prevented from being permanently stored in a server's database. When a user visits a web site and creates a new account, the site submits a request to query the user's profile using an extension to the HTTP protocol. The user is prompted by the user's browser to grant the site permission to do so and the site automatically uploads a non-personal identifying number (ID) to the user's system to create an account. User-selected fields of the PII are transmitted to the server for processing a user-requested transaction. All personal information remains on the user's computer within the user's encrypted PII profile and is deleted at the server after the completion of the requested transaction.

Abstract: An apparatus (2) for providing a focussed visual state of a subject is disclosed. The apparatus comprises a fast focus switchable lens (6) for alternately focusing an image at (i) a first position at a first distance behind a second position and at (ii) a third position at a second distance in front of the second position, wherein the first distance is substantially equal to the second distance. A refraction correction lens system (12) adjusts the second position.

Abstract: A spray generator (10) including: a membrane (40) having a perforate portion through which, in use, a fluid is caused to flow when the membrane (40) is vibrated; an electronically-driven or a piezoelectrically driven actuator for vibrating the membrane (40); a chamber (18) for storing fluid for supply to a surface of the membrane (40); and a sealing element (13) located in and movable within the chamber (18) between a first position in which fluid flow from the chamber (18) through the membrane (40) is prevented and a second position in which fluid flow from the chamber (18) through the membrane (40) is allowed.

Abstract: A printer architecture that enables a printer (or other media processing device) with an elongate foot print to be configured with media input and operator controls oriented at either a narrow end or a wide side thereof, that surface becoming the “front” of the unit. Controls and/or display(s) are mounted such that either the end or side orientation can be accommodated. The media input tray includes a separate assembly so that selection of the tray with access to end or side complements the user control panel in establishing the front of the machine. The combination of control/display mounting and oriented media tray structure integration with the print engine to establish which of the printer surfaces is considered the front allows for multiple orientations of the printer and greater flexibility to the customer.

Abstract: A system and method for controlling an icemaker assembly to prevent premature ice harvests is provided. In particular implementations, normal icemaker operations, including ice cube harvesting, can be suspended when an ice cube level in an ice cube storage bin is detected to exceed a predetermined threshold or when a command is received to prevent harvesting. When a command to prevent harvesting is received, communication from an ice cube storage bin sensor can be disconnected, for instance, after a current harvesting cycle is complete. The communication from the ice cube storage bin sensor can be reconnected following a time interval or after receiving a command to re-start the normal operations.
