Abstract: A modulating refrigeration system includes an evaporation unit and a condensing unit. The evaporation unit generates a first output airflow comprising a lower temperature, a lower relative humidity, or both than a first supply airflow and directs the first output airflow into a building. The condensing unit generates a second output airflow at a higher temperature than a second supply airflow and discharges the second output airflow to an unconditioned space. The evaporation unit comprises a first valve operable to direct a portion of refrigerant to a secondary evaporator and primary evaporator or to direct the entire flow of refrigerant to the primary evaporator and bypassing the secondary evaporator.

Abstract: A method, system and apparatus configured to correct a non-compliant, excessive gap condition between a door bottom and a finished floor. One example system may include a channel assembly attached to the bottom edge of the door, wherein the channel assembly includes at least one moving component configured to accommodate uneven door bottom gaps across the width of the door and an uneven floor condition.

Abstract: According to one embodiment of the present invention, a system for playing a poker hand at a poker table by a plurality of players comprises: a Computer; a plurality of player consoles wherein the player consoles are distributed at the poker table in a manner to accommodate the players and wherein each player console comprises display means being responsive to the Computer; and a plurality of first transmitting means for allowing the Computer and the player consoles to send signals to each other and to receive signals from each other; the Computer comprising random card generating means for effecting display of randomly generated card designations on each player console display means; and the Computer sequentially responding to wagering information being sent by a particular player console and the Computer not responding to wagering information being sent by the other player consoles.

Abstract: A Poker Tournament Management Method allows a plurality of players to enter a player-elimination poker tournament utilizing up to T poker tables designated tables T(1) to T(T), each poker table having up to P player positions designated P(1) to P(P); such METHOD comprising the steps of: Accessing the information for each entering player; Initially randomly assigning each entering player to a specific player position chosen from P(1) to P(P) at a specific poker table chosen from T(1) to T(T); storing said accessed entering player information, and storing said initially assigned player position and said initially assigned poker table for each entering player; and effecting the re-assignment of at least one randomly chosen player from at least one donor poker table to at least one donee poker table so that the resulting number of players assigned to each poker table differs by no more than a specified maximum difference.

Abstract: In a system providing an inventory of first and second class objects being distributed in first and second defined locations; such first and second locations being accessible to each other via a common pathway; said system comprising: motion sensing means for producing a detection signal when the presence or motion of an object is detected while present or moving through such pathway; universal signal transmitting means being responsive to said detection signal for transmitting a universal signal; unique identity signal detecting means for detecting the presence or absence of a unique identity signal from such detected object; each first and second class object being capable of transmitting a unique identity signal in response to said universal signal; and information storage means being responsive to said unique identity signal detecting means and being capable of storing information corresponding to the presence or absence of an identity signal from such detected object.

Abstract: According to the present invention, the poker tournament management system allows a plurality of players to participate in a player-elimination poker tournament. The system utilizes several poker tables, each poker table having several player positions. The system comprises: a central processing unit; at least one main console; and first signal transmitting means for allowing each main console and the central processing unit to send signals to each other and to receive signals from each other. Each main console further comprises player information entering means. The central processing unit responds to the player information accessed by the entering means for initially randomly assigning each participating player to a specific player position at a specific poker table.
