  • Publication number: 20210203404
    Abstract: A technology is described for a repeater system configured to provide services via a cloud-computing environment. The repeater system can comprise an n-band repeater, wherein n is a positive integer greater than 0; a server port; a donor port; one or more processors and memory in communication with the n-band repeater; and a scanning receiver coupled to the one or more processors and memory, wherein the scanning receiver is configured to scan one or more of the n bands of the n-band repeater and communicate carrier-specific information for the one or more of the n bands to a computer server located in the cloud-computing environment to enable access to the carrier-specific information from the cloud-computing environment.

  • Patent number: 10458462
    Abstract: A steering column assembly for a motor vehicle constructed in accordance to one example of the present disclosure includes a box rocker, a column jacket and a first section of tape. The box rocker has a rocker body including a box rocker inner surface that defines a box rocker bore. The box rocker is configured to be fixed relative to the motor vehicle in an assembled position. The column jacket is configured to be slidably received into the box rocker bore. The column jacket has a column jacket outer diameter including an outer surface that opposes the box rocker inner surface. The first section of tape is disposed between the box rocker inner surface and the column jacket outer surface.

  • Publication number: 20090236816
    Abstract: A street paddle which permits a rider of an associated skateboard or similar device to smoothly stroke and accelerate down the street using one's arms, hand and upper body, rather than using their foot to accelerate is disclosed. The street paddle is unique in that it allows a skateboard rider to pull and push their way on the street to accelerate, similar to an oarsman on the water, or a skier on snow, yet on the ground. A contact point, or footing, of the street paddle, where the paddle device comes in contact with the ground, connects to the bottom of an elongated shaft of the paddle. The footing comprises form and material that facilitates traction, when applied against a traveled surface, as well as shock dampening action to assist in smoothness and acceleration. As such the street paddle may also be used to decelerate the speed by dragging the footing on the ground in such a way that the friction of the contact slows the skateboard.

  • Publication number: 20070214187
    Abstract: A system and method for automatically executing a participating application upon insertion of a removable media into a computing device. When the computing device detects that the removable media containing has been inserted, a task disk control file is read from the removable media. The task disk control file contains all of the configuration information necessary to run the participating application from the removable media The participating application is then launched for use by a user. After the user is finished using the participating application, the removable disk is automatically ejected. In addition to monitoring for insertion of the removable media, events such as a completion of the self-contained application and a request to eject the media are monitored. When a completion event is encountered, all data files are saved, temporary files deleted and configuration information removed prior to the removable disk ejection.

  • Patent number: 6981601
    Abstract: A snap-on plastic closure for a container includes a top wall portion, an annular skirt portion depending from the top wall portion, and a removal tab projecting forwardly from the skirt portion for manipulation of the closure during removal. A sealing plug depends from the inside surface of the top wall portion for disposition generally within the mouth of an associated container. The skirt portion of the closure includes a deformable region positioned beneath the removal tab so that during closure removal, the deformable region is permanently stretched and deformed for tamper-indication.
