20140346077 | FOOD PACKAGING - Food packaging has a base tray and a second tray which nests in the base tray. The base tray has one or more walls terminating in a land. The land has an indent in its upper surface at least partially surrounded by an indent wall which extends continuously along an inward side of the indent so as to separate the indent from a main cavity formed by the base tray walls. The second tray nested has a flange supported by the land. The flange extends partially over the indent. The indent is sized to admit a finger within the indent below the flange. In consequence, after cooking of the foods in the trays, the consumer can use the indent in gripping the flange of the second tray without direct exposure to steam from the food cooked in the base tray. The consumer can then add a selected amount of food from the second tray to the base tray. | 11-27-2014 |

20130152354 | JAW GRIP FORCE ADJUSTMENT SYSTEM FOR OFFSET AND 90 DEGREE PULLING HEADS - The invention provides a system configured to adjust a jaw gripping force of a pulling head. A locking nut is threadedly attached to the pulling head and defines an aperture which extends therethrough. A frame adaptor is at least partially positioned within the aperture of the locking nut. The frame adaptor further receives a portion of the pulling head and a piston of a power tool within an aperture thereof, with the portion and the piston engaging one another within the aperture of the frame adaptor. The portion of the pulling head is operatively associated with a jaw of the pulling head. An adjustment nut is threadedly attached to the frame adaptor. Rotation of the adjustment nut, with the locking nut in an unlocked position, causes the jaw gripping force of the pulling head to either be strengthened or weakened, depending on the direction of rotation. | 06-20-2013 |
20140101908 | JAW GRIP FORCE ADJUSTMENT SYSTEM FOR OFFSET AND 90 DEGREE PULLING HEADS - The invention provides a pulling head, a jaw gripping assembly, and an adjustment assembly. The pulling head has a frame having first and second ends with the first end being configured to receive a stem of a fastener therein. The jaw gripping assembly is generally positioned within the frame. The adjustment assembly is operatively associated with at least one of the frame and the jaw gripping assembly. Manipulation of the adjustment assembly in a first manner moves the jaw gripping assembly closer to the first end of the frame in order to minimize an amount of jaw grip force generated by the jaw gripping assembly, while manipulation of the adjustment assembly in a second manner moves the jaw gripping assembly distal to the first end of the frame in order to maximize an amount of jaw grip force generated by the jaw gripping assembly. | 04-17-2014 |

20100027961 | INTERACTIVE SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR VIDEO COMPOSITING - Certain interactive role performance systems and methods are disclosed that allow users to select a role to play in a prerecorded video, such as a movie scene, and to replace an original actor of that role with the user's performance. In certain examples, the user selects a prerecorded scene from which a character has been removed and records his or her performance. The interactive role performance system can insert the user's performance in place of the original character, thereby creating the appearance that the user is interacting, such as in real-time, with the other characters in the movie scene. Moreover, systems and methods can further utilize background subtraction techniques to isolate the user image. In further examples, the recorded user performance is stored separately from the prerecorded video. | 02-04-2010 |
20100031149 | CONTENT PREPARATION SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR INTERACTIVE VIDEO SYSTEMS - Content preparation systems and methods are disclosed that generate scenes used by an interactive role performance system for inserting a user image as a character in the scene. Original media content from a variety of sources, such as movies, television, and commercials, can provide participants with a wide variety of scenes and roles. In some examples, the content preparation system removes an original character from the selected media content and recreates the background to enable an image of a user to be inserted therein. By recreating the background after removing the character, the user is given greater freedom to perform, as the image of the user can perform anywhere within the scene. Moreover, systems and methods can generate and store metadata associated with the modified media content that facilitates the combining of the modified media content and the user image to replace the removed character image. | 02-04-2010 |
20100035682 | USER INTERFACE SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR INTERACTIVE VIDEO SYSTEMS - A graphical user interface is disclosed for displaying a set of data tiles on a three dimensional array composed of rows and columns. In certain examples, navigation commands move the data tiles in a front row position to one of (i) an end row position or (ii) off the display area, causing the screen tiles in the subsequent row position to shift to the front row position. In some examples, a new row with new data tiles appears in the end row position. The data tiles can represent scenes from movies, television, or commercials. In some examples, the data tiles play a video of the represented scene when the data tile is selected and/or can include additional information associated with the scene, such as a number of associated user performances, number of scenes available for acting, user ratings or the like. | 02-11-2010 |
20120228240 | Intelligent Display And Fixture System - According to an embodiment of the invention, a configurable merchandise display system comprises a base, a peg board associated with the base and a shelf.
