Publication number: 20240135388Abstract: A computer executed process for mimicking human dialog, referred to herein as a “humanoid” or “humanoid system,” can be configured to provide automated customer support. The humanoid can identify a support issue for a customer, as well as a customer support campaign corresponding to the support issue. The humanoid can identify at least one machine learning model associated with the customer support campaign and can communicate with the customer using the at least one machine learning model. The humanoid can execute a support action to resolve the support issue.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 29, 2023Publication date: April 25, 2024Inventors: David C. White, JR., Jay K.

Patent number: 11948707Abstract: A system for providing cable support may be provided. The system may comprise a conductor core, a filler that may provide integral core support, and armor. The conductor core may comprise at least one conductor. The filler may be applied around at least a portion of the conductor core. The armor may be applied around at least a portion of the filler. The applied armor may be configured to cause the filler to apply a strong enough force on an exterior of the conductor core configured to keep the conductor core from slipping down an interior of the filler due to a gravitational force. In addition, the applied armor may be configured to cause the filler to apply a strong enough force on an interior of the armor configured to keep a combination of the conductor core and the filler from slipping down the interior of the armor due to the gravitational force.Type: GrantFiled: May 23, 2016Date of Patent: April 2, 2024Assignee: Southwire Company, LLCInventors: Kyle Douglas McGovern, Richard M. Temblador, David Mercier, John Armstrong, Paul H. White, Randy D. Kummer

Publication number: 20240102638Abstract: A stand light includes an elongate body defining a longitudinal axis, a collar coupled to the elongate body for movement along the elongate body between a first position and a second position, and a plurality of legs coupled to the collar, the plurality of legs being collapsed against the elongate body when the collar is in the first position and being expanded apart from the elongate body when the collar is in the second position. The stand light also includes a head assembly coupled to an end of the elongate body. The head assembly includes a hub and a plurality of light heads. The hub is pivotably coupled to the end of the elongate body to pivot about a first pivot axis. Each of the plurality of light heads is pivotably coupled to the hub to pivot about a second pivot axis.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 7, 2023Publication date: March 28, 2024Inventors: Brian Cornell, Duane W. Wenzel, David Proeber, Kevin D. White

Publication number: 20240101576Abstract: This disclosure provides chemical entities (e.g., a compound or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, and/or hydrate, and/or cocrystal, and/or drug combination of the compound) that inhibit epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR, ERBB 1) and/or Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2, ERBB2). These chemical entities are useful, e.g., for treating a condition, disease or disorder in which increased (e.g., excessive) EGFR and/or HER2 activation contributes to the pathology and/or symptoms and/or progression of the condition, disease or disorder (e.g., cancer) in a subject (e.g., a human). This disclosure also provides compositions containing the same as well as methods of using and making the same.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 8, 2021Publication date: March 28, 2024Inventors: Angel Guzman-Perez, Benjamin C. Milgram, Ryan D. White, David St. Jean, JR.

Publication number: 20240076467Abstract: Catalytic compositions for depolymerizing polyolefin-based waste material into useful petrochemical products and methods of use are described. The catalytic compositions are mixed metal oxides demonstrating equal or higher conversion than noncatalytic pyrolysis. These mixed metal oxide catalysts and a polyolefin-based material are heated in the presence of oxygen to form a product comprising one or more olefin monomers.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 24, 2023Publication date: March 7, 2024Applicant: Basell Poliolefine Italia S.r.l.Inventors: Daniel F. White, Sandor Nagy, Christopher D. Smith, David L. Ramage, Noel C. Hallinan

Patent number: 5803204Abstract: A clamshell cage assembly is provided for use in conjunction with a portable personnel lift. The personnel lift may be either a jib boom lift or a lift having a multi-sectional telescoping mast. The clamshell cage assembly has an upper and mid-level safety rail, portions of which pivot to a raised position which facilitates easy entry into the cage wherein the user does not have to stoop or use either hand to hold the cage open. The movable section of safety rail is then pulled downwardly by the user once he has entered the cage.Type: GrantFiled: January 28, 1997Date of Patent: September 8, 1998Assignee: UpRight, Inc.Inventors: David D. White, Alan E. Murphy

Patent number: 4585601Abstract: An improved system for the production of particulate metal is disclosed. The system comprises a containment vessel having a sidewall extending to an endwall, a source of metal external to said vessel and nozzle means carried by said endwall, said nozzle means including a central bore and providing communication between said vessel and said external source of metal, the sidewall and endwall cooperating with the nozzle means to seal off the interior of said vessel and the metal particles therein from the area adjacent said source of molten metal. Further, the system comprises a source of atomizing gas flowing through said nozzle means into said vessel and means for redirecting said atomizing gas flowing into said vessel into said central bore to remove deposition in said bore.Type: GrantFiled: May 3, 1984Date of Patent: April 29, 1986Assignee: Aluminum Company of AmericaInventors: A. David Booz, Kalman E. Buchovecky, Walter S. Cebulak, Ray A. Kuchera, David D. White, Jr.
