  • Publication number: 20240083471
    Abstract: A thread box assembly includes a framing body coupled with a moveable arm of a thread box system that positions rails of a track. The framing body includes external framing walls with an upward facing open side. The framing body includes framing supporting walls between the external walls. Supporting walls may couple the framing walls with each other. The assembly includes a closing body that can be removably coupled with the framing body. The closing body includes opposing elongated bars and opposing internal coupling walls. The elongated bars are oriented perpendicular to the coupling walls. The closing body is fastened to the framing body to define and surround a central opening of the thread box assembly through which the rails extend during installation or replacement of the track without the closing body moving relative to the framing body.

  • Publication number: 20240084517
    Abstract: A clamp assembly may include a housing that can be positionable alongside an elongated body, one or more clamps that can be pivotally couplable with the housing, and an actuator that may pivot the one or more clamps relative to the housing. The clamps may selectively engage the elongated body to thereby restrict movement of the elongated body relative to the housing.

  • Patent number: 11836510
    Abstract: Various aspects of the subject technology relate to systems, methods, and machine-readable media for automating the recording of an evidentiary history (e.g., versions audit trail) of a graphical user interface with an embedded clickwrap agreement. The snapshot server captures and outputs snapshot records of a graphical user interface displaying the clickwrap agreement on an end user computing platform. The snapshot records are created using a virtual machine that emulates an end user computing platform for navigation of an application rendered on the platform. Aspects may also include generating a snapshot record of metadata associated with the captured snapshot image.
