Abstract: Provided are apparatuses, systems, methods, computer readable storage media and other means for performing overhead service of machines. A staging assembly may be used that includes one or more platforms, each having a bottom surface, a floor, and two or more railing support structures. The staging assembly can be suspended, using a suspension system, from one or more support structures disposed on a ceiling. One or more driving means can also be used to drive the staging assembly or other equipment (such as a hoist assembly) along a path that may be defined by a support structure. The driving means can also be automated and/or activated in response to, for example, one or more commands generated by a central control processor. The central control processor, staging assemblies and/or other equipment can all include computer readable media which comprises instructions to perform various tasks, some examples of which are discussed herein.

Abstract: A portable multifunction machine tool (PMMT) for performing operations upon a work structure. The PMMT has a movable frame attached to and structured to provide support for a tool carriage that is movably connected to the frame and that comprises at least one machine tool assembly adapted to receive a tool. The PMMT also has a processor communicatively connected to the tool carriage and machine tool assembly and programmed to control the movement of the tool carriage.

Abstract: Enhanced airbag modules and methods of manufacture are provided. An airbag module according to the invention may have a cushion with an inflator insertion portion through which an inflator can be inserted into the cushion after the cushion has been substantially assembled. The inflator insertion portion may have an elongated opening, which may be oriented generally along a radius of the cushion. The elongated opening may have a comparatively narrow central portion, with first and second ends that may also be narrow, or may be widened for tear restriction and/or venting. All or part of the elongated opening may be covered by a flap that restricts gas flow through the elongated opening during deployment of the cushion.

Abstract: A test breakout board using blind vias to eliminate stubs. The test breakout board includes a printed circuit board (PCB), having a first set of contact pads on one side and a second set of contact pads which are directly opposite the first set of contact pads on it's other side. Each pad in the first set of contact pads is connected to a corresponding pad in the second set of contact pads through a pair of blind vias, a pair of signal traces and a through-hole via. Each of the through-hole vias is connected to a corresponding contact pin in a test connector. The test connector provides an interface to test equipment such as a logic analyzer or an oscilloscope. The test breakout board may include a test socket for holding a device-under-test (DUT), such as a microprocessor or an application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) chip. Additionally, the breakout board may also include an electrical interface adapter, which mechanically resembles the DUT.

Abstract: Page-mode-organized ROMs and associated circuitry are connected only to data and control buses in an information processing system. Addressing and reading of the ROMs are controlled by a processor without connecting the ROMs to an address bus. Selection of a particular ROM and of a particular page in the selected ROM is accomplished by applying a first control signal to the control bus and a first data word to the data bus. This first data word thus serves as the address of the selected page in the selected ROM. Then a particular byte of the selected page is selected by applying a second control signal to the control bus and a second data word to the data bus. This second data word serves as the address of the selected byte. Subsequently, in response to a third control signal, the selected byte is read out of the selected ROM and applied to the data bus.

Abstract: A programmable status register arrangement which enables the status of a plurality of status registers in a system to be checked simultaneously including fusible links connected to the outputs of the status registers whereby a user of the arrangement can program it to control the transmission of status signals by the plurality of status registers.

Abstract: This device involves a game of skill and coordination, the object of which is to push a coin across a board containing a maze of holes and obstacles and into a coin box at the other end of the board, with the aid of only one hand-held game tool similar to a knitting needle.

Abstract: A container for accommodating an identification paper is, itself, accommodated in a receptacle mounted on the inside surface of a door. A securing device in the receptacle and the door releasably secures the container in the receptacle until released by someone on the inside of the door and retrieved by someone outside the door.
