US Classification:

248 65, 174 44, 24115 R

Abstract:

A drop wire clamp for securing a drop wire having a messenger strand and a support wire and a method for securing the drop wire and for transferring the load of the drop wire to a support structure is provided. The clamp uses a helical spiral and an anchor for engaging and securing the drop wire. The support wire may be placed into the channel defined by the helical spiral by inserting the drop wire through an open end of the channel, by weaving the drop wire into openings between coils of the helical spiral or by deforming a malleable segment of the clamp to shape and form a helical spiral around the support wire. The clamp with engaged drop wire is fixed and supported to a support structure so that at least part of the load of the drop wire transfers to the structure.

Abstract:

A method and system for a reverse online auction process include a dynamic rules-based configuration step. Question-and-answer sets having branches to other questions based on configured rules are generated. Vendor registrations are received from vendors, including vendor product and service information, vendor contact information, and vendor content. A vendor profile is created and stored for each vendor based the product and service information and on answers provided by the vendor to the question and answer sets. Client request leads received from clients are automatically matched to the vendor profile information to determine one or more selected vendors who receive the lead information. However, the received lead information excludes client contact information. Vendors may accept an opportunity to bid for the lead and thereby become candidate vendors. Candidate vendors may submit a bid for the lead, and at least one winning bidder is determined from the candidate vendors.

US Classification:

705 1417, 705 1427, 705 143

Abstract:

A system and method provide rewards or loyalty incentives to card member customers. The system includes an enrolled card member customer database, an enrolled merchant database, a participating merchant offer database and a registered card processor. The registered card processor receives a record for charge for a purchase made with an enrolled merchant by an enrolled card member customer and uses the record of charge to determine whether the purchase qualifies for a rebate credit in accordance with an offer. If the purchase qualifies for a rebate credit, the registered card processor provides the rebate credit to an account of the enrolled card member customer. The registered card processor also provides for electronic notification of rewards offers in response to purchases conforming to a specific set of merchant criteria. The system provides a coupon-less way for merchants to provide incentives to customers, and notify customers of other available offers.
