    摘要: An inertia-driven dump load apparatus is provided in association with motor vehicles. The inertia-driven dump load includes a container defined by two side walls and a front wall; and at least one pivotable connection means connecting the container to the vehicle bed. To operate the inertia-driven dump load apparatus, the apparatus is first placed within a vehicle bed. Once the apparatus is in place, material to be dumped can be loaded into the apparatus. Then, the vehicle is driven to a location where the dumping of the materials is desired. Finally, a force is applied to the apparatus such that the apparatus moves across the vehicle bed so that the apparatus tips over a tailgate of the vehicle bed so that the material to be dumped is dumped.

    摘要: Systems and methods are described herein for supporting loyalty tiers. According to certain aspects, a custom number of loyalty tiers may be specified. Dynamic tier boundaries may be defined for each tier based upon a specified number of loyalty points, a percentile of total loyalty points, or a combination thereof. Periodic recomputing of tier boundary values can support dynamic loyalty tiers. According to certain other aspects, a user loyalty status may include a current tier and a pending tier. User loyalty points may be updated for a current loyalty activity. The updated user loyalty points may be compared with a point boundary for the pending tier and the user may be updated to the pending tier. Transacting the tier update with the server may be bypassed to reduce tier update latency. Also, immediate access at the client to features associated with the updated current tier may be supported.

    摘要: A storage, grinder and dosage dispensing device having a top cap body, a middle section body and a bottom cup. The middle section body rotatably engages the top cap body beneath the plurality of downwardly protruding top grinding knives. The bottom cup removably attaches to the top cap body or the middle section body forming an airtight storage chamber. The storage, grinder and dosage dispensing device is configured to simultaneously grind and tear material inserted into the top cap body by the plurality of downwardly protruding top grinding knives and a plurality of grinding teeth in an upper section of the middle section body as the top cap body is rotated on the middle section body creating ground material, which is then passed through a plurality of holes to a middle section chamber.

    摘要: A sensor is disclosed for determining a sulfur concentration in a liquid, such as a liquid fuel. The sensor includes a substrate that is at least partially coated with zinc oxide and, more specifically, zinc oxide microstructures. The zinc oxide microstructures have a crystal lattice structure that is oriented in the (002) plane, are oxygen-deficient and have a rod-like microstructure. If the substrate is conductive, it may be connected directly to a working electrode which is connected to a potentiometer which, in turn, is connected to a reference electrode. If the substrate is non-conductive, the conductive layer can be deposited on the substrate prior to deposition of the zinc oxide to form a working electrode. An application of a constant current (or voltage) to either electrode will result in a voltage across (or current flow between) the working and reference electrodes.

    摘要: A fluid flow regulator includes a valve assembly defining a fluid passage. The fluid passage includes a first port, a second port, a sensing orifice disposed between the first and second ports, a first orifice disposed between the first port and the sensing orifice and a second orifice disposed between the sensing orifice and the second port. A first flow area of the first flow orifice varies in response to differential pressure across the sensing orifice as fluid flows through the fluid passage in a first direction from the first port to the second port. The first flow area is fixed as fluid flows through the fluid passage in an opposite second direction. A second flow area of the second orifice is fixed as fluid flows through the fluid passage in the first direction and varies as fluid flows through the fluid passage in the second direction.
