Abstract: A bearing assembly for power transmission includes a bearing outer ring, a bearing housing, and a retaining plunger. The bearing outer ring comprises a first surface and a second surface, the bearing outer ring structurally forming at least a first recess on the first surface. The bearing housing houses the bearing outer ring and forms a cavity. The retaining plunger with a spring is partially enclosed by the cavity. When the first recess and the retaining plunger misalign, the retaining plunger is compressed into the cavity by the first surface of the bearing outer ring.

Abstract: A display sign is for a central reservation barrier in some examples. It has a base to engage a barrier in a manner which envelopes the top surface and downwardly on the opposed side walls. A display with display elements provides information for drivers, and a display drive apparatus is mounted to the base and rotates the display about a vertical axis extending from the base. The drives can have a very low profile, with components being offset with respect to the display longitudinal axis. The drive provides that the display is aligned with a barrier in use when not required but is turned to an optimal angle for visibility by drivers according to the driving conditions. The drive brings the display back to the default in operative position when there is a power outage.

Abstract: Disclosed is an insertable roll-up door for a vehicle. The door is formed from a header, left and right guide members and, optionally, a bottom sill. The header, guide members, and sill are assembled at a first geographic location to form a dimensionally stable subassembly. A flexible door panel and roller are installed in the subassembly. The top end of the door panel is connected with the roller. Ends of the roller are received at top portions of the guide members and the roller is supported to rotate about a roller axis. Rotation of the roller winds the door panel onto and off from the roller. Edges of the door panel are guided by the guide members to move vertically to open and close the door. The assembled door is shipped to a second location to be installed on a vehicle. At the second location, an opening is created in the vehicle sized to receive the door. The door is inserted in the opening and fixed to the vehicle with fasteners.

Abstract: Multiple uses of lathes exist where a cutting or scraping tool is initially employed to remove material generating particulates with a range of sizes from shavings and chippings to fine dust. Subsequently, sanding to smooth the surface of all or parts of the piece to the desired smoothness generates particulates with a size range dependent upon the abrasive used but are typically small in dimension and commonly referred to as dust. Without any control of this removed material it creates a mess and a health hazard particularly for the lathe operator and others in the vicinity from aspiration of the dust. Accordingly, it would be beneficial to provide lathe operators, enterprises employing lathe operators, etc. with a system that provides for removal of the chippings, shavings, and dust whilst allowing the user to employ the shaping tools and abrasives to achieve the desired result.

At the second location, an opening is created in the vehicle sized to receive the door. The door is inserted in the opening and fixed to the vehicle with fasteners.

Abstract: Methods for generating meta-tagged media files, in which features of an event recorded in the media file are tagged to identify content, are disclosed herein. The methods include independent and simultaneous generation of a media file and meta-tags, and the combination of the media file and the meta tags based on a correlation of device times to generate the meta-tagged media file.

Abstract: Example furniture kits and methods of making the same are described. An example method includes coupling a first block of a connector to a rear wall of a disassembled piece of furniture, the first block having a first groove, and coupling a second block of the connector to a side wall of the piece of the furniture, the second block having a second groove. One of the first block or the second block includes an extension and the other of the first block or the second block includes an opening to receive the extension when the first and second blocks are coupled. The example method also includes packaging the rear wall, the side wall and a locking cover into a furniture kit to be used to assemble the piece of furniture. The locking cover is to couple the first and second blocks.

Abstract: An apparatus (10) for washing eviscerated poultry carcasses (12) has a housing (11), a conveyor (15a) for moving the shackled poultry carcasses through the housing. A guide bar (24) tilts the poultry carcasses (12) from a vertical position for spraying by a first set of nozzles (23). The first set of nozzles (23) delivers a cleaning solution (100) at a sufficient flow rate and line pressure, whereby a portion of the cleaning solution (100) is deflected back out the rear opening (12d) of the poultry carcass (12).
