Appl. No.:

09/544682

Inventors:

Robert J. Doherty - Medway MA, US
Peter L. Tierney - Arlington MA, US

Assignee:

Viatech Technologies Inc. - Natick MA

International Classification:

G06F009/00
G06F007/00

US Classification:

Abstract:

A digital content file including a license control mechanism controlling the licensed use of digital content and a system and method for distributing licensable digital content files and licenses. A digital content file includes a digital content, which may be executable code or data, an embedded file access control mechanism and a dynamic license database associated with the file access mechanism for storing license information used by the file access control mechanism in controlling use of the digital content. The file access control mechanism includes a license monitor and control mechanism communicating with the dynamic license database and controlling use of the digital content and a license control utility providing communications between a user system and an external system to communicate license definition information and includes a graphical user interface. License information may be stored initially in the dynamic license database or provided from an external system. The system allows the distribution of digital content files and the acquisition of licenses with seamless transaction processing through an order processing system generating an order identification and authorization for a license and a product configuration and order database containing license management databases associated with the digital content files and containing license information to be transmitted to a user system upon receipt of an order identifier.

Inventors:

Robert Charles Doherty - Braintree MA, US

International Classification:

B65D 73/00

US Classification:

206469, 206471

Abstract:

A packaging unit having a front wall and a back wall sealed together at a peripheral joint. The front and back walls are formed of semi-rigid material. The front wall and back wall are spaced apart from one another to define an article-receiving region between them. A line of weakness is formed in the back wall. The line of weakness defines an opening flap to be at least partially separated from the remainder of the back wall. A raised opening tab is positioned on the opening flap along the line of weakness and extends away from the opening flap. The line of weakness is rupturable by a user by applying a manual force to the opening tab to at least partially separate the opening flap from the remainder of the back wall along the line of weakness in order to access the article-receiving region.

International Classification:

B25G 3/20

Abstract:

An ergonomic, multi-purpose, attachable and adjustable, auxiliary handle assembly that provides a single supplementary handle for multiple tools and implements. The handle assembly is comprised of an “L”-shaped cylindrical bar that is combined with an adjustable yet lockable, hinged clamp that can be conveniently positioned along the primary cylindrical shaft of elongated tools and implements. This adjustable placement of this new auxiliary handle provides greater convenience in utilizing the tool to maximize its leverage or lifting capability while reducing the risk of muscular strain and fatigue. The adjustable feature allows operators of different sizes; tall to short, to conveniently place the adjustable handle on their tool or implement, at a position on the elongated shaft, that maximizes their preferred handling of the tool for operation. This auxiliary handle allows the user to maximize the effective use of the tool while reducing arm and back strain or injury. In addition to the ergonomic benefits, this new auxiliary handle provides multiple functional benefits for more effective lifting, pulling and pushing operation of tools and implements. In addition, the auxiliary handle enables operational use of tools and implements, with all the above-mentioned benefits, for both day and night use, given the convenient optional lighting component attached to the “L”-shaped handle that sheds light on the tool or implement head (where the head is the shovel, rake, hoe, broom or other tool end attachment).
