  • Patent number: 11437793
    Abstract: A cable tray section includes first and second side rails, each side rail having opposite longitudinal ends and a length extending between the opposite longitudinal ends. A splice member is secured to one of the first and second rails adjacent one of the longitudinal ends. The splice member includes at least one opening configured to receive a fastener to connect the splice member to another splice member of another cable tray section to attach the two cable tray sections together. The at least one opening has an axis extending along the length of at least one of the first and second rails.

  • Patent number: 10235121
    Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods are provided for wirelessly communicating configuration data from mobile devices for use by interactive display devices. In some aspects, a processing device can identify two or more mobile devices participating in a session for utilizing an interactive display device. The processing device can receive configuration data from each of the mobile devices via a wireless transceiver. The processing device can configure an interactive display device to present outputs during the session using attributes that the processing device identifies from the received configuration data. In additional or alternative aspects, a processing device can identify at least one mobile device participating in a session for utilizing an interactive display device. The processing device can associate outputs presented by the interactive display device with an entity that is identifiable from configuration data that is received from the mobile device.
