In an embodiment, a hash value is received as part of a command and expanded code is identified based on the hash value and sent to a database service.

Abstract: An aspect of the disclosure provides for a cone rolling machine. The cone rolling machine includes a pulling mechanism, a tensioning mechanism, a cutting mechanism, a transport mechanism, a gluing mechanism, and a rolling mechanism. The cone rolling machine is configured to pull paper from a paper source, maintain a consistent tension in the paper, cut a cone blank from the paper, transport the cone blank to a gluing mechanism, apply glue to an edge of the cone blank, and roll the cone blank into a cone. Another aspect of the disclosure provides for a method of making a cone. The method includes pulling paper from a paper source, cutting a cone blank from the paper, transporting the cone blank to a gluing mechanism, applying glue to an edge of the cone blank, transporting the glued cone blank to the rolling mechanism, and rolling the cone blank into a cone.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to conductive cooling of a small form-factor pluggable (SFP) transceiver. For example, an SFP transceiver assembly may include a cooling block and a thermally conductive pad having a thermally conductive material. The SFP transceiver assembly may include a spring finger that contacts the thermally conductive pad while the SFP transceiver is inserted into the SFP transceiver assembly to allow heat to be conducted from the SFP transceiver to the cooling block via the thermally conductive pad to conductively cool the SFP transceiver.

Abstract: Embodiments for a universal endoscope drying cabinet are disclosed. In an embodiment, an endoscope drying cabinet comprises: a first compartment configured to receive at least one endoscope; a second compartment and a partition separating the first and second compartments. The partition comprises an aperture and an airflow accelerator configured to generate a first pressure in the first compartment and a second pressure in the second compartment, wherein the first pressure is greater than the second pressure. The endoscope drying cabinet further comprises: a conduit extending through the at least one aperture, wherein a proximal end of the conduit terminates in the first compartment and a distal end of the conduit terminates in the second compartment. Additionally, the endoscope drying cabinet comprises: a distal end coupled to the proximal end of the conduit and a proximal end configured to receive at least two different sizes of endoscope distal tips.

Abstract: A handboard for body surfing waves is described. The handboard has an adjustable strap that can be tightened or loosened depending on the size of the user's hand and the anticipated turbulence that the user expects to find in the surf. The strap is screwed into mated holes in the deck of the handboard, and there are several sets of screws so that a user can adjust the position of the strap on the handboard, thereby allowing a user to move the strap up or down the handboard depending on how he/she wants to trim the handboard. The handboard has a leash plug so that a user can be attached to the handboard, and an attachment site to which cameras and other accessories can be attached.

Abstract: An energy storage system is disclosed. The energy storage system includes a first energy storage cell, a second energy storage cell, and a first interconnect connecting the first and second cells. The interconnect includes a support member and a plurality of protrusions extending away from the support member. At least two protrusions are spaced relative to each other along a longitudinal axis of the interconnect.
