Abstract: A nondestructive data pipeline to execute convergence based agricultural actions is provided. A system receives, for storage in a buffer, raw data from a plurality of data feeds that are indicative of performance of agriculture on a farm. The system tags, prior to execution of a data translation process, the raw data with a plurality of identifiers. The system executes, with the raw data maintained in the buffer, the data translation process to map the raw data from a first one or more shapes into a second shape to generate a normalized data set. The system determines, responsive to detection of the error, an identifier tagged to a portion of the raw data in the buffer that corresponds to the portion of the normalized data set with the error. The system updates the normalized data set to remove the error.

Abstract: A vent register includes a set of vanes and a mechanical assembly. Each vane is pivotably affixed to a respective stationary point to be rotatable about the stationary point. The mechanical assembly interconnects the vanes so that all of the vanes rotate together in response to one of the vanes being actuated to rotate. At least one of the vanes has an orientation different than at least another one of the vanes such that the at least one of the vanes and the at least another one of the vanes point in different directions as the vanes are rotated.

Abstract: A vent register includes a control vane, top and bottom lazy vanes, and a cam having an opening and top and bottom slots. The control vane includes a pin slidingly received in the opening and is actuatable to pivot upward and generate a force acting on the cam thereby causing the cam to pivot to a tilted-down position and pivot downward and generate a force acting on the cam thereby causing the cam to pivot to a tilted-up position. The top vane includes a pin slidingly received in the top slot and is actuated by the cam pivoting to the tilted-down position to pivot upward whereby the top vane pivots with the control vane. The bottom vane includes a pin slidingly received in the bottom slot and is actuated by the cam pivoting to the tilted-up position to pivot downward whereby the bottom vane pivots downward with the control vane.

Abstract: A cargo tie-down assembly including a tie-down loop and a non-metallic, protective housing are provided. The housing includes an integrally molded, non-metallic base and side walls which define a pocket which is sized and shaped to receive and nominally retain the loop. A hinge hingedly connects the loop to the side walls within the pocket to allow the loop to rotate about a rotational axis between a retraced, protected position within the pocket and an extended, use position outside the pocket.

Abstract: An assembly capable of deploying an electronic device having a display screen from a stowed position towards a viewing position and simultaneously supporting the device and supplying electrical signals to the device in the viewing position within a passenger compartment of a vehicle is provided. A device holder is capable of movably holding the device and is supported for rotation about a rotational axis at a distal end of an elongated support. A bi-directional, electrically powered, linear actuator subassembly is mounted on a base and includes a motor-driven screw-drive and a threaded member mounted on the screw-drive to linearly move along a longitudinal axis of the screw-drive upon rotation of the screw-drive. The threaded member is connected to a proximal end of the elongated support to lift the elongated support to deploy the device along a predetermined, non-linear path upon rotation of the screw-drive.

Abstract: A floor mop includes a handle, a shaft coupled to the handle, and a plate attached to the shaft opposite the handle. The plate has a thickness that is minimum in a central portion adjacent an attachment to the shaft and increases in a lateral direction away from the central portion, the plate adapted to accommodate a cleaning pad thereon.

Abstract: An assembly capable of deploying stowed items in a passenger compartment of a vehicle is provided. The assembly includes a door and a storage unit having an opening for allowing ingress and egress of items into and out of a storage compartment of the unit, respectively, in an open position of the door. A support member supported within the storage compartment is configured to movably hold an item in the storage compartment and is configured to allow the item to be readily removed from the unit in an extended position of the support member. An actuator is configured to controllably move the support member away from its retracted position towards its extended position through stored potential energy without consuming electrical energy. The door moves towards its open position during movement of support member towards its extended position.

Abstract: A system and method for arranging a transport service is described. A server can determine, for each driver device of a plurality of driver devices in a given area, a first vector for that driver device based, at least in part, on a position of each client device of a set of client devices in the given area relative to that driver device. A request for transport service is received from a client device from the set of client devices. The server can determine, for each driver, a second vector for that driver based on the first vector and a position of the requesting client. A driver device is selected from the plurality of driver devices to perform the transport service based, at least in part, on the second vectors of the plurality of driver devices.

Abstract: A battery tray can include a deck, first and second longitudinal and side walls and a clamping member. The walls can extend from the deck and cooperate with each other to form a container area for receiving one of a first and a second battery, where the first battery has a longer length than the second battery. The second longitudinal and side walls can include respective first and second battery hold down members each having a rib for engaging one of the first and second batteries. The first longitudinal and side walls can include respective first and second ramped members for urging at least the first battery into engagement with the battery hold down members. The first clamping member can be removably coupled to the battery tray relative to one of the first longitudinal or side walls and can engage the first or second battery positioned on the deck.

Abstract: A tire cage is disclosed for containing the debris from a tire explosion. The cage includes a lightweight energy absorbing material for protecting structural members of the cage from tire explosion damage so that the cage is reusable. The energy absorbing material may be a metallic foam or other open celled structured material that is able to absorb large amounts of kinetic energy by permanently deforming. The cage is particularly effective in containing explosions of large equipment tires 6 to 12 feet in diameter and having a stored kinetic energy in a range of approximately 900 kilojoules to 1500 kilojoules.
