Abstract: A laundry appliance includes a drum that defines a processing space for drying articles. A blower delivers process air through an airflow path that includes the processing space. A heater is in thermal communication with the airflow path and delivers thermal energy to the process air. A controller is in communication with the drum, the blower, and the heater. During operation of a laundry cycle, the heater, the drum, and the blower cooperatively operate a particulate removal phase that maintains the articles in a damp state for a predetermined period of time. The damp state of the articles prevents accumulation of an electrostatic charge within the articles and a surface of the drum and allows the process air to separate particulate matter from the articles. After completion of the particulate removal phase, the heater operates at a conventional state that operates to dry the articles.

Abstract: A variety of medical procedures utilize two or more medical device components, including medical device components where a first medical device component is advanced within a second medical component. An example would be an elongate dilator used in combination with a guide catheter. The guide catheter and the elongate dilator may be adapted to provide a rotational lock mechanism that allows the guide catheter and the elongate dilator to lock together such that rotating one of the components causes rotation of both components. In some instances, the guide catheter and the elongate dilator may cooperate to also provide a relative axial lock between the two components.

Abstract: A system for opening and closing a sliding vehicle door includes a vehicle door that engages with the body in the closed position.

The hinged bracket has a laterally compressed shape when the door is closed, and expands laterally outward when the door is opened. The door and the track fixed thereto slide longitudinally along the opened hinged bracket when the door is opened. The interface between the hinged bracket and the track remains at the same generally location relative to the vehicle body, and shifts relative to the vehicle door when the door is opened.

An actuator engages a driver jaw resulting in the jaws either moving in a first direction to enlarge a fastener-receiving aperture cooperatively formed by the jaws, or the jaws moving in a second direction to reduce the fastener-receiving aperture to grip or release a fastener.

Abstract: Systems and methods disclosed herein provide a geo-targeted online reservation system that ensures authenticity of customer devices requesting reservations by generating reservations only if threshold authentication conditions are satisfied. For example, a computing device registered with a server system receives inputs for requesting a reservation of a limited release product and for configuring the product. To authenticate the computing device, the server device transmits an electronic message to the computing device requesting the computing device to respond. A response to the message is one threshold authentication condition for generating the reservation. Upon determining that one or more threshold authentication conditions are satisfied, the server device generates a reservation for the product.

Abstract: A social media processing system enhances posts to create stronger visual connections with viewers. The processing system may collect social media from different social networks and identify social streams from the social media associated with a particular client. The processing system stores a data set associated with the client that may include keywords, rules, and associated enhancements. The enhancements may include logos, images, font types, statistics, or any other information associated with the company. The processing system identifies content in the posts matching the keywords and adds the enhancements associated with the matching keywords to the post.
