  • Publication number: 20230349231
    Abstract: In one or more arrangements, a retractable screen system is provided. The system includes a roller tube having an exterior surface. A screen is connected to the roller tube and an upper edge of the screen. The system includes magnetic track assemblies having screen receivers configured to connect with and hold sides of the screen while permitting the screen to be raised and lowered. The magnetic track assemblies include tracks configured to attached to a structure and receive and hold the screen receivers in a channel between first and second side walls of the track. Magnetic attraction between the screen receivers and the tracks pulls screen receivers into the tracks and places tension on the screen. In one or more arrangements, the system includes retainers configured to connect with the first and second side walls of the track and prevent the screen receiver from coming out of the track.

  • Publication number: 20230031089
    Abstract: A data recording and annotation system includes data recording device for generating a data record. After the data recording device receives a request to review the one or more data records, the data recorder provides the one or more data records to the requester. After the data recorder receives an approval or annotation made about the data record, the data recorder generates a revised data record including information from the data record and from the approval or annotation. Then the revised data record is stored on the data recording device. The data records may be accessed at either the data generating device itself, or through a remote connection.

  • Patent number: 11519170
    Abstract: A system and corresponding method for suspending a set of panels. The system includes a mounting rail with a base having a first side and a second side. The first side of the base defines a planar surface configured to be secured against a structural support member and the second side includes a curved surface. The system also includes an alignment rail with a curved base, the alignment rail rotatably secured to the mounting rail along a pair of curved mating surfaces. The pair of curved mating surfaces is formed from the curved surface of the mounting rail and the curved base of the alignment rail. Additionally, the system includes a panel secured to the alignment rail.

  • Publication number: 20210056641
    Abstract: A connectivity hub server detects the occurrence of a qualifying update event associated with a user and generates one or more recommended updates to the user's existing coverage based on the qualifying update event. Responsive to the user electing an adaptive coverage policy during an initial coverage binding process, the connectivity hub server periodically queries one or more third-party data sources for information associated with the user and analyzes the received information to detect the occurrence of a qualifying update event. Modules of the connectivity hub server determine one or more recommended coverage updates based on a stored mapping and implement one or more of the recommended coverage updates based on instructions from the user device.

  • Publication number: 20200013097
    Abstract: A connectivity hub server facilitates interactions between processors associated with multiple entities participating in the purchase and sale of goods and related coverage services. Minimal customer data is input through a customer client device and is used to retrieve additional customer data from one or more third-party data sources. Received customer data is analyzed to determine a level of sensitivity, and data items having a sensitivity level exceeding a threshold are obscured on the display of a dealer processor. The connectivity hub server queries one or more coverage provider processors and provides for display on the customer client device available coverage options received from a subset of the queried processors. Responsive to the customer selecting an available coverage option, the connectivity hub server opens a direct communication channel between the customer and selected coverage provider.

  • Patent number: 9277372
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a technique for scheduling a point-to-multipoint (PTM) transmission of content data, provided by a content provider node, to a plurality of mobile terminals in a PTM-enabled network. A method embodiment comprises the steps of: receiving, by a PTM transmission control node, delivery schedule information from the content provider node, the delivery schedule information indicating a delivery time at which at least a portion of the content data is to be receivable by the plurality of mobile terminals; and determining, by the PTM transmission control node, a transmission start time for starting the transmission of the content data to one or more of the plurality of mobile terminals located in a service area of the PTM transmission control node, wherein the transmission start time is determined based on the delivery time and one or more system delay parameters.
