Title: Expandable knitted fabric
Inventor: TINGTING ZHANG
IPC: D04B1/24
Filed: 2017-06-08
Abstract: A knitted fabric, suitable for forming a hat, bag or shoe, comprises first strips 10 knitted according to a jacquard technique to have a display side. Each strip has a transverse curvature and the display side of each strip is on a same side of the knitted fabric. Flexible second strips 12, knitted according to another technique, are joined to the first strips along respective longitudinal sides in an alternating manner. The transverse curvature may be caused by back material of the first strip having more yarn than front material. The first strip may have plural yarns, at least one being elasticated. The second strip may have a double jersey structure with holes in it such as pointelle. A hat may be formed from a concertinaed fabric by expanding and maintaining in shape, such as by using a wire, a first portion to form a peak 20. A second portion 24 of the fabric may be expanded in use to cover the top of a person’s head. A retainer may locate and retain the second portion on a wearer’s head. The hat may be formed from the fabric defined above and the retainer may comprise a line (rope 26) passing through the holes which may be adjusted in length to suit a wearer’s head.

Title: Retail shopping facility-based use of time and location codes with physical items
Inventor: Roger L Snelgrove
IPC: G06Q30/02
Filed: 2017-02-02
Abstract: A received item has a machine-readable timecode placed thereon. A storage area that contains this item is correlated with that timecode to provide correlated information. That correlated information is used to automatically determine when to move that item from that storage area to a display area. So configured, an item received at a product-receiving area of a retail shopping facility can have a label placed thereon, the label bearing a current time. After placing this labeled item in a non-public storage area of the retail shopping facility a handheld code scanner can help correlate a particular timecode/item with a particular machine-readable location code in the non-public storage area. That correlated information is used to automatically determine when to move that item from the non-public storage area to a retail display area of the retail shopping facility. So configured, earlier-received items can be reliably moved in this manner before later-received items.
