A cartridge removably mountable to a main assembly of an electrophotographic image forming apparatus includes a developing member, a developer accommodating portion, a locking portion to engage a locking portion of the main assembly of the apparatus to prevent the cartridge from disengaging from the main assembly after mounting of the cartridge, a grip to be gripped by an operator when the cartridge is mounted to the main assembly, and a releasing portion to move the locking portion of the cartridge in interrelation with a movement of the grip which is moved when the operator grips the grip to disengage the cartridge from the main assembly of the apparatus. The locking between the locking portion of the cartridge and the locking portion of the main assembly is released by the movement of the locking portion of the cartridge.

A fitted bed covering for a mattress is provided having pockets at either end, formed by elastic panels attached to the underside of the sheet. The fitted bed covering is installed on a mattress by inserting opposite ends of the mattress into the elastic pockets.

The invention is a modular cable termination plug having a conductor divider having an entrant barb and a plurality of divider channels, a load bar having a plurality of through holes and a plurality of slots, and a plurality of contact terminals. Additionally, the invention may include a housing, a strain relief collar and a strain relief boot.

A prop head (17) of a formwork prop for a concrete ceiling has an end piece (15) facing the concrete ceiling, the end piece (15) having a longitudinal axis which extends substantially perpendicular to the plane of the concrete formwork. The prop head (17) also has a hinge mechanism (20) at the end piece (15) end facing away from the concrete ceiling. The longitudinal axis of the end piece (15) can be placed in swiveled positions relative to the longitudinal axis of the prop in hinged positions of the hinge mechanism (20), the hinged positions being lockable by means of fastening means (30), preferably on the hinge mechanism (20). A load-introducing center of gravity formed by the end piece (15) end facing the concrete ceiling essentially lies on a line encompassing the longitudinal axis (62) of the prop (2, 3, 4) in the hinged positions.

An aerated bumper and liner system for a baby crib provides increased airflow into and out of the baby crib while creating a soft pad to guard the baby against injury. The bumper and liner system includes pads with apertures that allow for added air circulation. Each pad may further include ties for attaching the pad to the bars of the crib. Support stays are included in the liner pads to help ensure that the liner pad do not sag once put in place in the crib.

The invention relates to a battery including a plurality of juxtaposed cylindrical or prismatic cells located in the through holes of a separating and positioning crate, characterized in that the separating and positioning crate is provided between two contact and holding plates having inner surfaces provided with one or more contact strips attached without welding against said faces and ensuring the electric interconnection between a plurality of cells. Said contact strip or each of said contact strips is made of a flexible conducting material having a plurality of flexible contact tabs cut in said contact strip(s) and maintained against the terminals of the cells by individual elastic pressure means secured by screwing onto the separating and positioning crate so that said contact tabs are individually pressed against one of the terminals or poles of said cells.

This invention generally relates to methods and systems for associating and identifying content, including both physical and electronic objects, with metadata through networks. The invention also generally relates to routing systems for handling requests including content identifiers. One claimed method is provided for media content identity resolution. The method includes: computing a content identifier from a media content signal; forming a layered content identifier, the layered content identifier including the content identifier, an identity provider identifier and a metadata claim; issuing a resolution request to a routing service to get metadata associated with the layered content identifier, the routing service interpreting the layered content identifier by forwarding the metadata claim to an identity provider identified by the identity provider identifier; and receiving in response to the resolution request, the metadata associated with the layered content identifier. Of course, other combinations are provided and claimed as well.

The present invention relates to a method and a device for placing at least one material layer onto a relief mold for producing a composite material. Thereby, an elastically-reversibly deformable body with a surface relief that is designed to correspond to the relief mold is pressed against the material layer, as a result of which the surface of said body is deformed, and the material layer can be picked up. As a result of its elastically-reversible characteristics the body subsequently deforms back to its initial state so that the material layer can easily be placed onto the relief mold.

A beaver control device for a culvert pipe features a generally conical screen having a base portion and an apex portion connected by a plurality of rods. The base portion has a rim sized to fit about the end of the culvert pipe. The apex portion has a rim with an opening sized to selectively receive a weeping tile or other drainage pipe. The screen prevents beavers from damming the culvert while allowing the drainage pipe to drain into or pass through the culvert. A pin is provided to either lock the drainage pipe in place or partially close off the opening in the apex portion when not in use. The screen is movable between raised and lowered positions to allow easy access to the screen and culvert. In one embodiment, the screen is constructed in multiple pieces to allow for easy transport and on-site assembly.
