20110313917 | Systems and Methods for Capturing and Processing Payment Coupon Information - Embodiments of the invention may provide systems and methods for capturing and processing payment coupon information. In one embodiment, a method includes receiving an image representing a payment coupon from a payer and determining an identity of a biller associated with the payment coupon from the image. It may then be determined that no payment coupon metadata for obtaining one or more fields from the payment coupon is stored in association with the biller. The method may then include requesting a respective set of one or more field indicators representing at least an approximate size or an approximate location for one or more fields within the image. Upon receipt, the field indicators for the fields within the image are stored as the payment coupon metadata in association with the biller. | 12-22-2011 |
20110313918 | Systems and Methods for Processing a Payment Coupon Image - Embodiments of the invention may provide systems and methods for processing a payment coupon image. In one embodiment, a method includes receiving an image representing a payment coupon from a payer, determining an identity of a biller associated with the payment coupon based at least in part on information displayed by the image, and extracting data from the image based at least in part on payment coupon metadata associated with the biller indicating a layout of the payment coupon. The method may further include performing at least one of: (a) processing a payment associated with the payment coupon to the biller based at least in part on the data extracted from the image; (b) adding the biller to a list of billers for a payer associated with the payment coupon; or (c) activating the biller as an electronic biller for the payer associated with the payment coupon. | 12-22-2011 |

20120034026 | Single-sided fitting - A single-sided fitting comprising a shaft with two or more axially extending legs. Each leg has a catch which extends radially outwardly from the leg. A clamping plate has two or more holes each receiving a respective one of the legs. A projection is carried by the clamping plate and extends axially between the legs towards the catches. The clamping plate and projection are axially movable along the shaft to a locking position where the projection is positioned between the catches thus preventing the catches from moving radially inwardly. Means are provided for preventing the clamping plate and projection from withdrawing back along the shaft away from the catches after they have been moved to the locking position. For instance an internally threaded nut may be carried by the shaft, the clamping plate being positioned between the nut and the catches, wherein the nut can be spun along the shaft to engage the clamping plate in its locking position. | 02-09-2012 |
20140144005 | FASTENING DEVICE - The present invention concerns fastening devices.

20110147550 | Extracorporeal Blood Circuit Component Mounting System - A mounting system for mounting one or more components of an extracorporeal blood circuit to an upstanding mast provided with a pump cart. The system includes a clamp device, a primary arm, a seat, a post, and a locking mechanism. The clamp device is mountable to the mast and pivotably maintaining the primary arm. The seat defines a tapering intermediate section and is mounted to the primary arm. The post projects from the seat. Finally, the locking mechanism is configured to releasably secure an extracorporeal circuit component, otherwise located over the seat, to the primary arm. With this configuration, the extracorporeal circuit component can be selectively located and locked to the primary arm at a variety of different rotational orientations. The mounting system can further include an auxiliary arm defining a sleeve sized to be removably disposed over the seat. | 06-23-2011 |
