Abstract: A modular shelter includes a base; and a unibody shell coupled to the base, the shell formed to include a roof and at least one side to define an indoor human-occupiable environment substantially enclosed within the base and the shell.

Abstract: A housing for a musical instrument having a resonant chamber made from several integrated panel members with at least one snare assembly inside having individual wires having a first end portion connected to a first mounting member releasably supported at a first position and a second end portion connected to a second mounting member releasably supported at a second position. First and second mounting members are disposed to vertically stretch the wires substantially taut in continuous contact relation with the inside surface of one panel member. First and second wedge-shaped support members, which are is secured at the first and second positions, respectively, are spaced apart and have sloping surfaces disposed towards the inside surface of a panel member, and are conformed to receive corresponding first and second mounting members in angular relation.

Abstract: A housing for a musical instrument having a resonant chamber made from several integrated panel members with at least one snare assembly having individual wires with each grouping of individual wires having a first end portion connected to a first mounting member releasably supported at a first position inside the resonant chamber and a second end portion connected to a second mounting member releasably supported at a second position inside the resonant chamber. First and second mounting members are disposed cooperatively to vertically stretch the wires substantially taut in continuous contact relation with the inside surface of the strike plate. A first generally wedge-shaped support member is secured at the first position and a second generally wedge-shaped support member is secured at the second position.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system for transitioning between views in a network page. An application that is executed in at least one computing device encodes a network page for rendering in a client, the network page including a region, and the region being configured for the rendering of at least two views. The network page is encoded to depict a transition between the two views. A first one of the views depicts at least one mechanism to add a depicted item in the network page to a list, and a second one of the views depicts at least a portion of the list. Once encoded, the network page is sent to the client.

Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for providing confirmations for list modifications. A network page is sent to a client. The network page includes one or more components for requesting that one or more items be added to a list of items. The item(s) are added to the list of items in response to a request from the client. A display region is encoded for rendering in the client as a layer superimposed on the network page. The display region includes a confirmation that the item(s) have been added to the list of items. The display region includes one or more undo components for requesting that a last modification to the list of items be reversed.

Abstract: Portable shelters, shelter systems, and methods of deployment of such shelters are described. The shelters or housing units may be deployed in emergency housing situations and may be grouped into systems of shelters. One particular embodiment comprises a rigid top frame structure, a rigid bottom frame structure, and one or more collapsible support arms connecting the top frame structure to the bottom frame structure. The frame structures and the collapsible support arm(s) are sized and configured to form a shelter frame when the collapsible support arm(s) are in a fully extended position, and the top frame structure is brought into proximity with the bottom frame structure when the collapsible support arm(s) are in a collapsed position. Methods of rapid deployment of the shelters and systems of shelters are also described.

Abstract: A method implementable by an electronic system comprises identifying an event corresponding to a data set, the data set being of a type of a plurality of data-set types; identifying the type of the data set; identifying an association between the type of the data set and an entity of a plurality of entities; and instructing the entity to perform an action with respect to the data set.

Abstract: A modular link or link section for use in forming a rodless conveyor belt or a section thereof is provided. In one embodiment, the link section is unitary and includes a plurality of laterally-repeating link-shaped portions, each including an apex portion and a pair of leg portions. Each apex portion includes a receiver for receiving an integral first connector extending between the leg portions of a next-adjacent link or link section, preferably in snap-fit engagement, such that relative pivoting movement is established. A second integral connector may be provided between the leg portion of each adjacent apex portion to create an engagement surface for a tooth of a drive or idler sprocket. The underside surface of each link section may also be specially contoured or curved to facilitate smooth passage over a guide structure, such as a small diameter, cylindrical nosebar or the like.

Abstract: A conveyor system includes a chain with modular side and intermediate guide links. The guide links assist in supporting the chain along the return run in a suspended fashion intermediate of the outer sides without causing wear on the conveying surface. Related methods are also disclosed.

Abstract: An improved conveyor chain formed from a plurality of modular links arranged in rows and each associated with at least two elongated transverse connectors is disclosed. In one embodiment, the connectors together create a substantially open, planar support surface intermediate of the links in each row. Each link in a first row includes apertures for receiving a first of the connectors extending through a slot in the links of an adjacent row, as well as a receiver having a closed end and an open end for receiving one end of a second one of the connectors. The chain with the connectors associated with each row is thus capable of side-flexing to negotiate curves or bends, as well as longitudinal compression/expansion, while at all times providing full and even article support.

Abstract: A conveyor is for possible use in transferring articles between two adjacent conveyors. In one embodiment, the conveyor includes a pair of idler structures and a drive structure for collectively guiding and moving a conveyor belt or chain relative to a bed. At least one of the drive structure or idler structures is mounted or positioned so at to be capable of moving relative to the belt or chain to provide tensioning therefor. In another embodiment, a bed assembly including the chain or belt, the drive structure, and the idler structure is also substantially fully releasable from a corresponding base for servicing or clearing a jam. In either case, the conveyor may be driven using a slave drive associated with an adjacent conveyor. Related methods are disclosed.
