Abstract: A dynamic management method for a menu, a server, and a system are disclosed. The method includes: collecting, when a function on each independently deployed functional unit changes, a menu change message generated when the function changes; receiving the menu change message through a message-oriented middleware deployed in a cluster manner, and broadcasting the menu change message; and monitoring and parsing, at a portal unit, the menu change message, and updating a menu displayed on an interface.

Abstract: A retrofit kit adapted to existing recessed light fixtures having housings of different depths and/or configurations is described herein. The retrofit kit includes a flat flexible reflector and at least one pair of fasteners adapted to secure the flat flexible reflector in the housing of an existing recessed light fixture. The reflector can be flexed to different curved shapes to fit the housings. A retrofitting method for an existing recessed light fixture is also disclosed.

Abstract: The present invention provides a breather that includes a waterproof air-permeable membrane and a mounting device, the mounting device having a rod with a hollow structure and a head at one side of the rod. The head includes a bottom wall which has a circular bore in communication with the hollow portion of the rod and around which sidewalls are formed, several through holes being formed in the sidewalls, a fastening cover cooperating with the head with a chamber formed therebetween, wherein the waterproof air-permeable membrane is mounted inside the rod, and wherein the through hoes, the chamber and the circular bore communicatively connect the inside and outside of the breather.
