  • Publication number: 20230205897
    Abstract: According to an aspect, a method may include obtaining data loss prevention (DLP) restriction data, the DLP restriction data identifying a group resource identifier and a restriction to a computer function of a computing device associated with an organization, detecting a data transfer event for transferring data from a first application to a second application, identifying a group of applications using the group resource identifier, and applying the restriction to the computer function when the first application is identified as belonging to the group of applications and the second application is identified as not belonging to the group of applications.

  • Publication number: 20180154566
    Abstract: A system and associated process for creating an extruded sheet having a decorative surface effect, such as plastic for example are presented. A roll of decorative plastic film for use in such system and process is also presented. Viscous materials are provided and fed through an extruder module and feed block to form a stream of viscous material. A die positioned downstream forms the stream of viscous material into a sheet of material and a calander having a set of rolls smoothes the sheet of material after it is released by the die. A film application assembly cooperates with the calander to apply a decorative plastic film to a surface of the sheet of material. The film application assembly includes a support structure for holding a roll of the decorative plastic film and a film feeding mechanism configured to direct the decorative plastic film to position a surface of the decorative plastic film opposite the surface of the sheet of material.

  • Patent number: 7939037
    Abstract: Method for producing hydrometallurgical zinc oxide powder having characteristics equivalent to that derived from a French process, comprising formation of an aqueous pulp from a starting zinc oxide having particles of nodular structure, wet milling of this aqueous pulp, separation in this milled pulp between a liquid phase and a solid phase containing the zinc oxide, and drying of said solid phase, coupled with a mechanical deagglomeration of the particles during drying, to obtain a dry zinc oxide powder with particles of nodular structure having a particle size distribution where the particles have an average size (d50) between 0.02 and 20 ?m.

  • Publication number: 20080017679
    Abstract: A roof box comprising: (a) a bottom part comprising a bottom section and side sections projecting upwardly from the bottom section, the bottom section being adapted for mounting the roof box to a roof area of a vehicle; (b) a top part movable relative to the bottom part between an opened position and a closed position, the top part comprising a top section and side sections projecting downwardly from the top section, wherein, in the closed position, the bottom section and the side sections of the bottom part and the top section and the side sections of the top part define an internal volume for storing objects in the roof box, the top part comprising first and second polymeric walls joined together at the side sections of the top part to define an interior space between the first and second polymeric walls; and (c) at least one strengthening element provided in the top section of the top part, each strengthening element being made of a respective portion of the first polymeric wall fused to a corresponding po

  • Publication number: 20060086511
    Abstract: A fire extinguishing device for locating over an area subject to a fire risk and configured for automatically releasing a fire retardant material onto a fire occurring there below. A fire resistant housing, having an opening in the bottom thereof, releasably holds a fire retardant material. An operating mechanism operates to release the fire retardant material. A plurality of adjacent doors are configured for collectively closing over the opening during a steady state of the device and for opening upon operation of the operating mechanism to release said fire retardant. Each door is configured for sealing with an adjacent door or the housing during the steady state to form an enclosed compartment of the housing for containing the fire retardant material. A flammable trigger is configured to rapidly ignite and disintegrate when subjected to a flame of the fire and thereby operate the operating mechanism in response to the fire.

  • Patent number: 6353229
    Abstract: A direct conversion digital x-ray detector is provided with inherent high voltage protection for static and dynamic imaging. The detector has an n-channel active matrix TFT array, a coplanar photoconductor structure and a high voltage biasing electrode. In order to achieve high voltage protection, the biasing electrode is set to a negative potential and the TFT “off” gate voltage is set to a predetermined negative value, such that the TFT is essentially non-conductive.
