Patent number: 11991259Abstract: Examples described herein relate to standardizing content requests and responses in a content delivery network (CDN). An edge node receives a control object including sets of instructions each implementing portions of a customer's business logic. The edge node may receive, from a client, a content request identifying a content item, and may apply a set of the instructions which causes the edge node to (i) determine whether any changes are needed for the benefit of a cache server and whether any changes are need for the benefit of an origin server, and (ii) generate a processed client request identifying the content item and including, if needed, any changes for the benefit of the cache server and the origin server. The edge node transmits the processed client request to the cache server, receives a response from the cache server, and transmits a processed client response to the client.Type: GrantFiled: July 6, 2023Date of Patent: May 21, 2024Assignee: Level 3 Communications, LLCInventors: William Crowder, Daniel Jensen, Pawel Jakobowski, Laurence Lipstone, William Power

Publication number: 20240140714Abstract: An automated storage and retrieval system includes a multi-level storage rack and a material handling robot, where the multi-level storage rack includes a plurality of cuboid cells and the material handling robot is configured to navigate along a vertical direction or a horizontal direction from a first cuboid cell to a second cuboid cell. When the navigation from the first cuboid cell to the second cuboid cell is along a vertical direction, a set of second engagement structures disposed at corners of the material handling robot are mated with a set of first engagement structures disposed along structural columns of the first cuboid cell. A rotation of the second engagement structures drives the material handling robot to vertically move along the structural columns of the first cuboid cell.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 24, 2023Publication date: May 2, 2024Inventors: Christopher Walti, Stefan Ozog, Gagan Thable, Emre Kalayci, Nathan Power, Daniel Livingston

Patent number: 11936816Abstract: A system and method for managing virtual queues. A cloud-based queue service manages a plurality of queues hosted by one or more entities. The queue service is in constant communication with the entities providing queue management, queue analysis, and queue recommendations. The queue service is likewise in direct communication with queued persons. Sending periodic updates while also motivating and incentivizing punctuality and minimizing wait times based on predictive analysis. The predictive analysis uses “Big Data” and other available data resources, for which the predictions assist in the balancing of persons across multiple queues for the same event or multiple persons across a sequence of queues for sequential events.Type: GrantFiled: April 5, 2023Date of Patent: March 19, 2024Assignee: Virtual Hold Technology Solutions, LLCInventors: Daniel Bohannon, Richard Daniel Siebert, Jay Power, Matthew DiMaria

Patent number: 10477855Abstract: A rodent bait station having a counting mechanism configured to monitor the number of rodents entering the bait chamber of a rodent bait station. The housing has a counting mechanism in communication with the entrance of at least one bait chamber opening. A sensor is in communication with the counting mechanism. The counting mechanism can be mechanically actuated or electronically activated when the sensor detects a rodent entering through the bait chamber of the bait station. The bait chamber has at least one bait rod having an end that is hingedly connected to an inner wall of the bait chamber. A resilient member is in communication with the bait rod to position the bait rod in a substantially horizontal orientation when the housing lid is closed and to position the bait rod in a substantially vertical orientation when the housing lid is opened.Type: GrantFiled: October 27, 2017Date of Patent: November 19, 2019Inventor: Marc Daniel Power

Patent number: 9877661Abstract: A heart monitoring method is disclosed including an electroacoustic transducer such as an earphone coupled to a controller. The method proceeds with positioning a transducer in a person's ear in acoustic communication with the tympanum. Signals from the transducer are processed to determine the presence of pulsatile blood flow. The heart monitor may be incorporated into a portable media playback device alternating between playback and monitoring mode or performing both simultaneously using one earphone for each function. The heart monitor may be incorporated into a defibrillator to sense the presence of blood flow for use in a shock delivery decision.Type: GrantFiled: December 18, 2015Date of Patent: January 30, 2018Assignee: KONINKLIJKE PHILIPS N.V.Inventor: Daniel Powers

Patent number: 9415230Abstract: A current limiter for a defibrillation pulse is powered by the defibrillation pulse and switches the current delivery path open and closed when an excessive current condition exists. The excessive current condition is sensed by a sense resistor of the current limiter. The controlled current is delivered by an inductor which delivers a current which varies in a range about a predetermined current level during excessive current conditions. The current limiter dissipates little energy of the defibrillation pulse so that most of the energy produced by the defibrillator is delivered to the patient.Type: GrantFiled: January 29, 2007Date of Patent: August 16, 2016Assignee: KONINKLIJKE PHILIPS N.V.Inventor: Daniel Powers
