PORTABLE STAGE SYSTEM
A rectangular stage includes a deck supported by a frame and removable legs. The legs insert into a corner receiving assembly below the stage deck at each corner. The leg receiving assembly includes a cylindrical socket into which the top of the leg inserts. The leg receiving assembly also includes a retaining linkage that extends through a slot in the side of the socket and engages the leg. The retaining linkage also includes a manually actuatable latch coupled to the cam to maintain the cam in engagement with the leg.

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR INTELLIGENT DATA CENTER POWER MANAGEMENT AND ENERGY MARKET DISASTER RECOVERY
Systems and methods for intelligent data center power management and energy market disaster recovery comprised of data collection layer, infrastructure elements, application elements, power elements, virtual machine elements, analytics/automation/actions layer, analytics or predictive analytics engine, automation software, actions software, energy markets analysis layer and software and intelligent energy market analysis elements or software. Plurality of data centers employ the systems and methods comprised of a plurality of Tier 2 data centers that may be running applications, virtual machines and physical computer systems to enable data center and application disaster recovery from utility energy market outages. Systems and methods may be employed to enable application load balancing and data center power load balancing across a plurality of data centers may lead to financial benefits when moving application and power loads from one data center location using power during peak energy hours to another data center location using power during off-peak hours.
DEVICE MOUNTING STRUCTURE
A device mounting structure for mounting a load maintaining mechanism on a hydraulic cylinder, a pipe for suppling and discharging working oil to and from the hydraulic cylinder being connected to the load maintaining mechanism such that the working oil is led thereto, includes a single coupling portion that includes a screw hole and is provided on the hydraulic cylinder, and a bracket to which the load maintaining mechanism is fixed, the bracket being coupled to the coupling portion via a first screw member that is screwed into the screw hole, wherein the bracket includes a first through hole through which the first screw member is passed so as to leave a gap in a radial direction.
Quick release equipment mount
A quick release equipment mount includes a support module secured to a fixture such as a wall or pipe and a number of item modules, each of which can attach to an item of equipment such as a fire extinguisher for quick release. The item modules can have two pair of vertically spaced apart hooks which engage two pair of commensurately spaced apart posts extending laterally from an elongated vertical tongue extending from the support module. The hooks are formed on a pair of rails spaced to form a groove slidingly engaged by the tongue. Item modules can have different item interfacing segments for securing in various manners to various types of equipment items while all having similar support module interfacing segments capable of quick release mounting to the support module.

Jamming methods and apparatus
A reconfigurable device comprises flexible bladder that encloses a jammable material. The geometry of the device can be altered by unjamming the jammable material (making it flexible), changing the shape of the device while it is flexible, and then jamming the jammable material (making it rigid). In some applications of this invention, a joint connects rigid arms. The ends of the rigid arms are enclosed in the bladder. By varying the stiffness of the jammable material in the bladder, the stiffness of the joint can be controlled.
HIGHCHAIR
A highchair includes a building block table, a booster stool and a feeding chair. The bottom of the booster stool is detachably connected to the top of the building block table. The bottom of the feeding chair is detachably connected to the top of the booster stool. Four sockets are provided on the top surface of the building block table. An elastic cover that is adapted to the socket covers the top of each socket. A plurality of vertical grooves are spaced apart on the inner periphery of each socket. The bottom surface of each socket is provided with a first spring receiving groove. A plurality of protruding blocks are spaced apart on the outer periphery of each cover. The protruding block is matched with a corresponding groove. The bottom surface of each cover is provided with a second spring receiving groove.
DEVICE MOUNTING BRACKET WITH MULTI-PURPOSE BASE
An apparatus permitting VESA compliant devices to be mounted onto a flat surface, or placed onto a mobile, securable, and rotatable base plate is disclosed. The apparatus consists of a hollow stem with two (2) ends, one which can be affixed to a “VESA mounting plate”, with the opposing end affixed onto a flat surface directly flush, onto a base, or other mounting plate. The stem ends and accessory components are engineered to permit fast installation and support for multiple mounting options for on-surface or behind-the-surface mounting, as well as standalone mounting with theft-deterrent features, plus support for add-ons that permit easy lateral rotation of the assembly with cable management.
