Abstract: A system for facilitating construction of a deck comprises a server, a client computer, and a database. A user inputs, through a graphical user interface on the display of the client computer, a configuration for the deck. The server receives the deck information from the client computer and determines, based on information in the database and the deck information, a parts list. An augmented view depicting the deck in a background view of the client computer may also be generated for viewing on the user interface.

Abstract: An articulating infrared window to be installed into a panel of a cabinet is disclosed. The window includes a window housing and an infrared transparent pane. The infrared transparent pane is installed within the window housing. Embodiments of the window housing can include various articulation mechanisms including individually or in combination a double gimbal assembly, a single gimbal and rotary stage, a ball and socket joint, and an extension joint (such as a bellows) for articulating the infrared transparent pane.

Abstract: The current invention relates to a storage system comprising of at least one storage receptacle that is suspended by movably coupling the storage receptacle to at least one longitudinally extending track. The storage receptacle may be movably coupled to the track either by coupling members that are coupled to frames, trucks, or the receptacle itself. The storage receptacle is movable along the track between first and second positions.

Abstract: A mechanism for removably and repeatedly attaching a cap of a container with a removable cap to its container, formed into, attached to, or attachable to a surface of the container other than the end of the container upon which the container is designed to stand and other than on the container's opening. The container portion of the mechanism is configured to detachably attach to a cap portion of the mechanism. The cap portion of the mechanism is positioned on, mountable on to, or formed into the container's cap. The two portions of the mechanism are configured so that they can be attached to and separated from one another a plurality of times. The invention also relates to a container employing such a mechanism, and a product employing such a container.
