A system includes an OAI gateway; and a main server coupled to the OAI gateway via the network, and configured to be accessed by client workstations, the main server including: an OAI listener coupled to the OAI gateway; a notification server coupled to the OAI listener; a memory defining a database and coupled to the OAI listener; and an intake application server coupled to the database; the main server being configured to present to a workstation a user-fillable intake form having a plurality of questions, to be filled by an intake clerk, and the main server configured to receive answers to the questions from the workstation, and to present a score total to the workstation indicating the desirability of the potential customer, the score total varying depending on the received answers. Other systems and methods are also provided.

An adjustable spacer structure of a bicycle is used for adjusting a height of a stem disposed on a steering tube. The adjustable spacer structure includes a first spacer and a second spacer. The first spacer includes a body and a positioning portion. The body has a ring shape and a first opening, and the steering tube is movably disposed through the first opening. The positioning portion is disposed on the body. The second spacer has a ring shape and a combining portion. The combining portion is detachably connected to the positioning portion, and there is a second opening formed between the first spacer and the second spacer. The stem is abutted against the first spacer.

A bicycle includes a frame, a suspension assembly and a steering assembly. The frame includes a head tube that rotatably receives a front fork assembly. A steerer tube extends axially away from a fork crown of the front fork assembly. The suspension assembly includes an upper tubular support longitudinally slidable relative to a lower tubular support. The upper and lower supports receive a first positive biasing means and a first negative biasing means. The lower and upper supports are respectively connected to the steerer tube and a stem of the steering assembly such that the upper support slides longitudinally relative to the lower support adjacent the stem and above the fork crown.

A motorcycle includes: a front swing arm; a fork holder coupled to the front swing arm in a swingable manner; a front fork steerably supported by the fork holder; and a front cushion unit. In a front-wheel suspension device, one end of the front cushion unit is coupled to the body frame, and the other end of the front cushion unit is coupled to the fork holder.

A steering structure for a saddle riding vehicle includes a suspension arm, a head pipe supported by a tip portion of a suspension arm, a stem shaft pivotably inserted through the head pipe, a front fork structure body integrally pivotably connected to a lower end portion of the stem shaft, a handle support section disposed above the head pipe, a handle steerably supported by the handle support section, and a bending link configured to transmit a steering operation of the handle toward a front wheel, wherein the bending link has an upper end portion connected to a side of the handle and a lower end portion connected to a side of the front fork structure body.

The damping device according to the invention includes a pressing member, a shock absorption member and an adjustment member. The shock absorption member is disposed in an accommodation room defined between the pressing member and the handlebar seat. The shock absorption member are arranged in contact with the pressing member and the handlebar seat, so that when a rider is riding a bicycle on an uneven road causing the front fork tube to shake up and down, the invention disclosed herein would absorb the shock force as the pressing member presses against the shock absorbing member. The adjustment member is arranged to extend through the handlebar seat into the pressing member and contact the shock absorption member, so that the strain rate of the damping device can be adjusted by the adjustment member, thereby performing various degrees of shock absorption effects.

A shock absorption device includes first and second assemblies, at least one pivot component and a buffering component. The first assembly is adapted to be connected to a first component of a bicycle and has at least one conical hole. The second assembly is adapted to be connected to a second component of the bicycle. The pivot component is fastened on the second assembly and has a conical portion. The conical portion is inserted into the conical hole such that the first and second assemblies are pivoted to each other. The conical portion is leaned against and fitted on the conical hole. The buffering component is disposed between the first and second assemblies. When the first and second assemblies rotate relatively to each other by taking a central axis of the conical hole as a rotation axis, force between the first and second assemblies is buffered by the buffering component.

A suspension assembly for a bicycle comprises a lower tubular support configured to be received within a steerer tube of a bicycle fork assembly; an upper tubular support configured to be connected to a stem of a steering assembly above an upper end of the steerer tube; and a spring configured to exert a force that biases the upper and lower tubular supports toward an extended position, wherein the upper and lower tubular supports are configured such that the upper tubular support slides longitudinally relative to the lower tubular support adjacent the stem and above a fork crown of the bicycle fork assembly.
