Patent number: 10065552Abstract: The present system is directed in one embodiment to a vehicle with a cargo tank or reservoir and a pumping system, comprising a centralized controlled area network (CAN) in operative communication with a programmed computing device, e.g., a programmed logic controller (PLC) that may automate the pumping process output to automatically adjust based on demand and may further enable a pump flow rate that is infinitely adjustable to match output requirements. In other embodiments, the pump speed is no longer dependent upon engine speed or RPM. In other embodiments, the CAN may monitor for vapor at the pump inlet and automatically slow the pump speed until the vapor problem is resolved. Other embodiments may comprise the CAN integrating various vehicle and pumping systems to maximize safety and safety issue annunciations.Type: GrantFiled: November 7, 2016Date of Patent: September 4, 2018Assignee: Polor Tank Trailer, LLCInventors: Duane G. Plumski, Calvin E. Yardley, Tracy L. Timmerman, Philip J. Dybinig, Stephen P. Laumer, Robert P. Bergsgaard, Andrew J. Long

Publication number: 20040053307Abstract: The invention provides methods for modulating an immune response comprising contacting an immune cell with an agent that modulates BTF4 or B7-L1 mediated signaling. BTF4 or B7-L1 mediated signaling may either be increased, to thereby downregulate the immune response, or alternatively may be decreased, to upregulate the immune response. Modulation may be either activation or inhibition, and contacting may occur in vivo or in vitro. Performance of this method in vivo is also potentially therapeutic for an individual who may benefit from the upregulation or downregulation of an immune response. Such modulation to downregulate the immune response serves as a therapeutic e.g., for an individual who has received an organ transplant, or has a condition such as an allergy, or an autoimmune disorder. Alternatively, modulation to upregulate the immune response serves as a therapeutic for an individual, e.g., who has a condition such as an immunosuppressive disorder or a tumor.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 17, 2003Publication date: March 18, 2004Applicant: WyethInventors: Clive R.
