Appl. No.:

10/766516

Inventors:

Christopher Todd Cross - Littleton CO, US

International Classification:

A47B 96/00

US Classification:

24822611, 2482266, 269 37, 269 41, 269152, 269249

Abstract:

A sheet material clamp having a rigid clamp base of a pre-selected length. The rigid clamp base has a clamping surface and at least two clamping apparatus attached to the clamping base for applying clamping pressure through a pressure foot toward the clamping surface. The apparatus for applying clamping pressure are spaced along the length of the clamp base so that clamping pressure can be applied evenly along the edge of the sheet material being clamped.

Appl. No.:

10/766522

Inventors:

Christopher Cross - Littleton CO, US

International Classification:

B65H001/00

US Classification:

271145000

Abstract:

A sheet material handling system consisting of at least one support member having a substantially vertical support leg connected to a planar working surface by a hinged connection. The hinged connection allows pivoting of the planar work surface with respect to the vertical supports along a pivot axis. In addition, a latching member is associated with the planar working surface configured to selectively lock the pivoting of the planar working surface in a select position. The hinged connection between the planar working surface and the vertical support legs may be first and second tubular members attached to each of the vertical support legs and a third tubular member attached to the planar working surface. The first, second and third tubular members are positioned in a line such that a shaft can run through all tubular members connecting them such that the third tubular member, attached to the planar working surface, is free to pivot around the pivot axis with respect to the first and second tubular members.

International Classification:

B65D 5/72

US Classification:

222567

Abstract:

Angled caulking nozzles allow for the optimal application of sealant materials in hard-to-reach areas. Provided herein are novel devices, methods, and designs for angled caulking nozzles which incorporate handles or other protrusions. The handles or other protrusions allow for the facile rotation of the angled caulking nozzle such that the angled dispensing tip may be easily and optimally positioned.

Appl. No.:

9/096786

Inventors:

Christopher J. Cross - Denver CO

Assignee:

CSG Systems, Inc. - Englewood CO

International Classification:

H04M 1500

US Classification:

379112

Abstract:

A Telecom Access Billing System provides the capability for a communication carrier service provider to substantially automate the payment to other communication carrier service providers for the use of their services and equipment. Billed charges are received in a variety of forms from the communication carrier service providers which are providing the services. A processor uploads the information, checks its integrity, and converts it to a format in which it can be further processed. Once the information has been uploaded and converted, a validation process is performed in which the individual items of the bill are checked as to whether the rate information charged by the communication carrier service providers matches the rates which have been either negotiated or established by a third party. Any discrepancies noted in this comparison process are included in a dispute report which is associated with the invoice on which the billed charges appear. The user of the system may then review the invoices in conjunction with any discrepancy amounts which have been noted.

Abstract:

Provided herein are novel signage devices. The signage devices comprise printed elements comprising, or in connection with a pinwheel assembly, such that the printed elements will rotate in the wind and catch attention by their movement. The signage devices of the invention are especially amenable to depicting and advertising round objects, such as a pizza.
