| 20110247538 | Multifunctional Recreational Vehicle - A vessel having an elongate base frame with a transverse tubular member adjacent each end of said base frame. The vessel also has elongate buoyancy members extending substantially parallel to a longitudinal axis of the base frame adjacent opposite sides thereof. The elongate buoyancy members are movable between respective extended and retracted positions relative to the base frame by support beams telescopically located within respective ends of a respective tubular member. The vessel also has a drive system to selectively move the elongate buoyancy members between the extended and retracted positions. The vessel also has a mobile transportation unit. The transportation unit includes an elevation mechanism to move the vessel between a raised position with retracted buoyancy members for road transportation and a lowered position with extended buoyancy members. The mobile transportation unit is detachable from the vessel when in the lowered position. | 10-13-2011 |

| 20090007473 | DISPLAY WITH BANNER CONNECTION SYSTEM AND BANNER - An exhibit or display for tradeshows or the like having a plurality of support members and a banner that can include an elongate attachment member or banner strip presented or disposed thereon that can be used to selectively operably couple and decouple the banner with a channel in one of the plurality of support members or in a channel member portion included in a channel portion in one of the plurality of support members. | 01-08-2009 |
| 20090031664 | MULTI-CONFIGURABLE TUBULAR DISPLAY SYSTEM - An exhibit or display for tradeshows or the like having a plurality of support members and an axial connection assembly. The support members include opposing ends and a body portion, and further include an exterior channel and a central bore, the channel defining a flange portion and the bore being in communication with a retention feature. The axial connection assembly is configured to releasably couple an end of a first support member to an end of a second support member such that the two support members are axially aligned. The axial connection assembly includes a collar releasably coupled in the bore of each member, with each collar including at least one locator portion to interact with the retention feature, and a pin having a mid portion and two ends, the mid portion configured to be rotatably selectively restrained within the collar. | 02-05-2009 |
| 20100146832 | RETRACTABLE BANNER STANDS - Retractable banner stands each comprises a base including a housing containing an extendable and retractable banner, the housing having a slot through which the banner is extended and retracted. The base includes sockets for receiving vertical poles for attachment of accessories. Such accessories can include banner support structure for an additional banner to be positioned intermediate two of said retractable banner stands whereby a three banner interconnected display may be provided with each of the banners visually separated. Such a display is highly suitable for a backwall for a tradeshow display area. Further accessories include shelves, literature holders, lighting, and electronic display screens. The base may include a housing with a pair of floor engaging saddles, each saddle with a pair of feet portions extending forwardly and rearwardly from the housing on two ends of the housing, the feet having the sockets for receiving said vertical poles. | 06-17-2010 |
| 20100236116 | CONFIGURABLE LARGE-DEPTH PANEL DISPLAY - A configurable large-depth panel display uses a number of frame members and a number of corner brackets coupled to one another to create an flexible and easily customized display device. The frame members relatively uniform, having a substantially constant cross-sectional configuration which is easily coupled to the frame members. The corner brackets can be configured in a number of different ways to produce a display product with a desired configuration. More specifically, the corner brackets can be configured to attach to frame members in a manner which produce an overall framework having multiple shapes and orientations, depending upon the desired design of the overall display. Various panels, brackets and supports can be easily attached to the frame members using integral portions of the constant cross-sectional configuration. Further, more complex displays can be easily created by simply attaching different framework components to one another thus creating a single structure with multiple panel members. | 09-23-2010 |
| 20100236457 | COLLAPSIBLE TRANSACTION TABLE - To provide a usable workspace for use at tradeshows, conventions and similar events, a collapsible transaction table is uniquely designed to provide transportability and flexibility regarding its setup. In its collapsed condition, the transaction table itself is contained and thereby easily transportable. In its expanded condition, components are provided to provide a usable transaction table which preferably sits at a countertop height but with which also may be modified to further extend into a countertop configuration. To achieve the counter top configuration, a pair of transaction tables are coupled with one another utilizing specifically configured bridging elements to thus create a stable and usable countertop. The transaction tables themselves include a collapsible base unit and tabletop elements which are removably attachable to the base units in an interlocking manner to provide additional stability. | 09-23-2010 |

| 20090205286 | Framework connection system - A display framework connection system comprising a plurality of frame members, preferably tubular, a plurality of end flanges, and a hub system. The hub system can comprise a hub plate assembly and/or a hub casting assembly. In addition, at least one clamp assembly, preferably cylindrical, can be included for circumferential attachment to the outer surface of the frame members to provide for selective removable fastening of various attachments and accessories at positions along the length of the frame members. The hub plate assembly and the hug casting assembly can be connected individually to the frame members, or in combination, to enable selective angular configuration of the frame members to construct a frame construction, such as those commonly utilized in display frame systems. | 08-20-2009 |

| 20080235149 | Methods and Apparatus for Agreement-Based Automated Service Provisioning - Techniques are disclosed for automated provisioning of resources to fulfill a service agreement. For example, a technique for use by a service provider for automatically provisioning one or more resources based on at least one service agreement offer of a service client comprises the following steps/operations. The at least one service agreement offer is obtained. At least one implementation plan template is obtained. A provisioning description is then automatically derived in accordance with the service agreement offer and the implementation plan template, wherein the provisioning description is usable for configuring one or more resources such that a service may be provided to the service client. | 09-25-2008 |
| 20080243579 | Methods and Apparatus for Coordinating and Selecting Protocols for Resources Acquisition from Multiple Resource Managers - Techniques are disclosed for allocation of resources under the control of resource managers and the choice and coordination of resource acquisition protocols to communicate with these resource managers. The resource managers may be distributed and heterogeneous. For example, a technique for use by a service provider for allocating one or more resources from multiple resources associated with multiple resource managers based on at least one service agreement offer from a service client comprises the following steps/operations. At least one service agreement offer is obtained. A resource allocation is automatically determined based on the obtained service agreement offer. The automated step/operation of determining the resource allocation comprises: (i) coordinating selection of a resource acquisition protocol from among multiple resource acquisition protocols for use in communicating with the multiple resource managers to acquire one or more resources associated therewith; and (ii) evaluating a performance associated with one or more of the multiple resource acquisition protocols. | 10-02-2008 |
