Abstract: A truck bed mat assembly for protecting the bed of a truck having a frame with a front member, a back member, and opposed side members interconnecting the front member and back member. The front, back, and side members each have a top surface and a bottom surface, with the bottom surface spaced from the top surface so that the top surface is raised relative to the bottom surface. Each side member has opposed longitudinally extending edges with the mounting flanges extending from each of the opposed longitudinally extending edges. The front member and back members are connected to the mounting flanges. A rigid mat material is mounted to the mounting flanges. Mounting brackets extend from each front and back member, with each mounting bracket having a base and a body portion. The base is connected to one of the front or back members, and the body portion has an opening for receiving a D-ring to connect the truck bed mat assembly to the truck bed.

Abstract: A displaceable vehicle step that has a step, a frame that can be mounted to the vehicle, and swing arms interconnecting the step to the frame. A biasing mechanism is mounted adjacent to a cover plate with a second slot. A control interconnects the swing arms and the biasing mechanism. A cam follower having first and second ends operatively interconnects the cover plate with the biasing mechanism. A detent plate is mounted to the control cover plate and receives a first end of the cam follower; the second end of the cam follower is interconnected to the biasing mechanism. The detent plate includes a first slot and at least one spring-loaded detent. When the cam follower is past the detent, the detent springs out to hold the said cam follower in place, which then holds the step in its normal position. In the event an obstruction is engaged, the detent is forced to retract allowing the cam follower to move within the first slot which allows the step to pivot with respect to said frame.

Abstract: An exemplary method, for solving a problem with a network element within a network, includes first selecting a first set of pre-existing bots and first executing at least some of the selected first set of bots to change the network element and/or the network to solve the problem. The method further includes conducting a root cause analysis to generate recommendation(s) to correct the problem and in response to the first executing failing to solve the problem: second selecting, based on the recommendation(s), a second set of pre-existing bots to change the network element and/or the network to solve the problem, and second executing at least some of the selected second set of bots to solve the problem. Subsequently, the method includes generating, in response to the second executing failing to solve the problem, instructions to manually change the network element and/or the network to solve the problem.
