  • Publication number: 20240103694
    Abstract: An electronic device with a display and a touch-sensitive surface: displays a first user interface that includes a plurality of selectable objects; while a focus selector is at a location that corresponds to a respective selectable object, detects an input that includes detecting a contact on the touch-sensitive surface; and in response to detecting the input: in accordance with a determination that detecting the input meeting input criteria, including a criterion that is met when the contact meets a respective input threshold, displays a menu that includes contact information for the respective selectable object overlaid on top of the first user interface; and in accordance with a determination that detecting the input includes detecting a liftoff of the contact without meeting the input criteria, replaces display of the first user interface with display of a second user interface.

  • Patent number: 6357561
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a rotor assembly. The rotor assembly includes a rotor having rotor holes disposed about an axis. Bushings are disposed within the rotor holes in order to protect the rotor holes from compression impact deformation. Each bushing includes an internal slot that permits the rotor to radially expand and contract due to changes in the temperature of the rotor. A hub having pin holes that align with the rotor holes is held to the rotor by drive pins disposed within the pin holes and the bushings. A bolt is placed into the drive pin and tightened to fix the hub to the rotor in the axial and circumferential directions. Other features are disclosed.
