Abstract: A connected water monitoring system including a plurality of sensors, each of which monitors a respective condition is provided. A hub device receives and stores respective information from each of the plurality of sensors indicative of a current status of the respective condition monitored by a respective one of the plurality of sensors. A cloud server communicates with the hub device via a network. The respective information includes one or more values sensed by each of the plurality of sensors. The hub device transmits one or both of the one or more values or the respective information to the cloud server. The cloud server determines when one or both of the one or more values or the respective information from each of the plurality of sensors indicate that one or more connected water monitoring system components require maintenance and, responsive thereto, execute an automatic maintenance process.

Abstract: An attachment for use with a food processing system includes a sealable body including a wall and a processing chamber, a chamber opening formed in said sealable body, and a vacuum passage arranged in fluid communication with said chamber opening.

Abstract: An adjustable blade assembly includes a threaded hub coupleable to a drive shaft of a food processor and a slicing plate slidably mounted on the hub. A slicing blade couples to the hub above a first surface of the slicing plate for cutting food introduced into the food processor. A cannulated support collar couples to the hub and includes a plurality of detents. A slicing adjustment sleeve rotatably couples to the hub and to the support collar to move the slicing plate up and down relative to the hub, thus changing a selected distance between the slicing plate and the slicing blade. As the user rotates the slicing adjustment sleeve, a plunger housed inside the slicing adjustment sleeve engages the plurality of detents on the support collar, thus providing tactile feedback to the user and maintaining the slicing blade in the desired position relative to the slicing plate.

Abstract: A lid and blade assembly for a micro puree machine includes a lid having a central aperture for receiving a central hub of the blade. At least two cutting arms and at least two mixing arms extend radially outward from the central hub. A retaining component retains the blade within the lid during processing. The lid includes a recess below the retaining component for collecting slush and ice displaced by the blade during processing. Portions of the blade also include serrated grooves for clearing slush deposits when the blade engages the lid.

Abstract: A system for assembling roofing at ground level has an adjustable-length center frame separating a first assembly side from a second assembly side; a first cantilevered gantry on the first assembly side and a second cantilevered gantry on a second side, each cantilevered gantry moveable along the length of the center frame; a plurality of outrigger beams coupled to opposing ends of the center beam, each outrigger beam having a catwalk thereon; a first joist railing and a second joist railing on each assembly side, each joist railing configured to receive an end of an open web joist; and a base frame comprising a plurality of wheels. Once the roofing section has been assembled, hoisting the assembled roofing section to the top of a structure.

Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to identifying and resolving consumer transactions using consumer call analytics. The computing platform may monitor consumer transactions and score each detected transaction. The computing platform may predict, using the score associated with the transaction, whether the consumer may request assistance with the transaction. The computing platform may receive, from the consumer, a request for assistance with at least one transaction. The computing platform may use a unique consumer identifier to identify transactions associated with the consumer. The computing platform may determine whether at least one similar consumer request for assistance was previously received. If at least one similar consumer request for assistance was previously received, the computing platform may retrieve the previously received request and a corresponding solution.

Abstract: A reservoir assembly for a food processing system including a vacuum mechanism includes a housing having a hollow interior, an inlet pipe extending through said housing into said hollow interior, a fluid flow path from said hollow interior to the vacuum mechanism, and a valve positioned within said hollow interior, said valve being movable to control a flow of air provided to the vacuum mechanism via said fluid flow path.

Abstract: An attachment for use with a food processing system includes a sealable body including a wall and a processing chamber, a chamber opening formed in said sealable body, and a vacuum passage arranged in fluid communication with said chamber opening. The vacuum passage is associated with at least one of said wall and said processing chamber of said sealable body.

Abstract: An attachment configured for use with a food processing system includes a container configurable with a food processing base of the food processing system. The container has a processing chamber. The processing chamber has a first configuration adjacent a first end of said container and a distinct second configuration adjacent a second end of said container, said second configuration being circular.

Abstract: A feed chute assembly includes a lid coupleable to a container of a food processing system. The lid has a feed chute for introducing food towards rotating blades at the top of the container. A linkage cover housing a linkage component for activating the motor couples to the feed chute. The linkage cover defines a channel within an inside perimeter of the feed chute. A user inserts a pusher into the feed chute such that a rib on the pusher extends into the channel, operatively engaging the linkage component to activate the motor. When the user removes the pusher from the feed chute, the motor stops the spinning blades.
