  • Patent number: 11617450
    Abstract: A pop up cover for a crib is provided for providing a safe, comfortable and isolated environment for a child in a crib. The pop-up cover may be made of breathable fabric panels having an integrated frame, for example a flexible frame, which can be folded (collapsed) on itself, for example when folded in specific ways if appropriate force is applied and which keeps the fabric in a taught, open position when unfolded (preventing the panels form falling inwards onto each other). The pop up cover can be lightweight and compact, quick and easy to set up, dark inside and breathable.

  • Publication number: 20230097046
    Abstract: A gaming device comprises a display, a random number generator, a processor, and a memory storing instructions. When the instructions are executed by the processor, they cause the processor to conduct a base game from which feature games and at least one composite feature game can be triggered, where the composite feature game comprises game play characteristics from a first feature game and a second feature game of the feature games, and the composite feature game comprises a combination of the different game play characteristics. The composite feature game is initiated in response to a composite feature trigger condition being met. The game instances are presented with one or more feature game icon, which are modified in presentation during the game instances in accordance with an associated game play characteristic for a particular instance.

  • Publication number: 20230086948
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a liquid hand dishwashing cleaning composition including a surfactant system, wherein the surfactant system includes an anionic surfactant and a co-surfactant, wherein the anionic surfactant includes a mixture of a linear anionic surfactant and a branched anionic surfactant with a defined degree of branching and with the branching predominantly on an unalkoxylated alkyl sulfate surfactant. Such compositions exhibit surprising and unexpected improved sudsing profile, preferably stable suds, especially when the manual dishwashing is performed in a sink full of water with the cleaning composition diluted in it.

  • Publication number: 20230030409
    Abstract: A system includes a sensor carrier and an integrated data recorder. The sensor carrier includes an outer sub body and an inner sub body. The inner sub body is coupled to the outer sub body by a support leg. The inner sub body includes a recess formed therein. The sensor carrier includes a flow path defined as the space between the outer sub body, the inner sub body, and the support leg. The integrated data recorder is positioned within the recess of the inner sub body such that the integrated data recorder is substantially at the centerline of the sensor carrier. The integrated data recorder includes a sensor package including one or more drilling dynamics sensors, a processor, a memory module, and an electrical energy source.

  • Publication number: 20220316161
    Abstract: A cleaning system for pavement joints controlled and driven by a motor. A wheeled housing carries a nozzle system where a stream of pressurized or forced air is directed through rotating nozzles to clean the joint surfaces. The rotational speed (RPM) of the motor is selectively controlled by actuation of a valve by the operator, and allows the operator to selectively control the rate of rotation of the nozzles are required by the state of the surface to be cleaned. A suction head is further movable over the joint surfaces to remove the debris dislodged by the nozzle system and airflow.
