Abstract: A cone and clamp assembly for a screen assembly comprises a substantially vertical supporting member about which a screen can be wound/unwound, a cone associated with at least one end of the supporting member and rotatable with the supporting member and at least one line member that can be wound onto and off the cone. The cone and clamp assembly comprises a clamp configured to hold the at least one line member relative to an external surface of the cone in an engaged position during transportation of the screen assembly or prior to operation of the screen assembly, a drive plate engaged with a pivot pin of the clamp, a cone plate coupled to the cone through the drive plate and the clamp, and an adjustable element coupled between the cone plate and the drive plate. Adjustment of the adjustable element in a first direction rotates the clamp toward the external surface of the cone and adjustment of the adjustable element in a second direction rotates the clamp away from the external surface of the cone.

Abstract: Various embodiments include a system for generating performance monitoring data in a computing system. The system includes a unit level counter with a set of counters, where each counter increments during each clock cycle in which a corresponding electronic signal is at a first state, such as a high or low logic level state. Periodically, the unit level counter transmits the counter values to a corresponding counter collection unit. The counter collection unit includes a set of counters that aggregates the values of the counters in multiple unit level counters. Based on certain trigger conditions, the counter collection unit transmits records to a reduction channel. The reduction channel includes a set of counters that aggregates the values of the counters in multiple counter collection units. Each virtual machine executing on the system can access a different corresponding reduction channel, providing secure performance metric data for each virtual machine.

Abstract: A clipping system includes an adapter, a clip and a first extending member. The clip includes first and second jaws which are movable between an insertion configuration and an initial deployed configuration. The jaws are biased toward the initial configuration. The first member is releasably coupled to the clip and movably connected to the adapter. The first member includes a distal end releasably coupled to the first jaw such that longitudinal movement of the first member relative to the adapter moves the clip between the insertion configuration, the initial configuration and a review configuration. The first member is operable to retract the clip proximally over the adapter so that the clip is forced open as the clip is retracted over the adapter. A first releasable link connects the first member to the clip and releases when the first member is subject to a force exceeding a predetermined threshold value.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a vehicle recovery board having a rectangular body with a flat topside surface and an inclined front portion of the underside surface. The flat topside surface does not have a ramp front section. The flat topside surface provides a surface at a constant angle to allow a tire to move on and along without providing an initial steep slope to gain traction. The vehicle recovery board also includes features that improve tire traction and dislodge water, sand and other material from the tread of tires. The vehicle recovery board of the present invention also has ground engagement teeth on the underside of the board to reduce slippage of the board during use.

Abstract: Systems and methods for food logging are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, a food logging system converts text inputs that describe an instance of dietary intake in the form of unstructured text to a detailed description of the nutritional content of the instance in the form of structured data. The food logging system can consist of five structural components, each of which performs a specific task. Each food logging system component is associated with a defined resource that provides information and directives on how the associated component is to perform its designated task. Together, these components and associated resources constitute an apparatus that enables users to carry out detailed and accurate food logging, simply by providing textual descriptions of their dietary intake.
