Publication number: 20240160190Abstract: A method may include receiving, via a secure deployment management (SDM) system, a notification indicative of a change in configuration data associated with an industrial device from a secure deployment management (SDM) node associated with the industrial device. The notification is received via a secure communication channel established by the SDM system with the SDM node and one or more security protocols. The method also includes retrieving, via the SDM system, the configuration data associated with the industrial device from a data source in response to receiving the notification and sending, via the SDM system, the configuration data to the SDM node via the secure communication channel. The industrial device may receive the configuration data from the SDM node without performing one or more security operations on the configuration data.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 7, 2023Publication date: May 16, 2024Inventors: David C.

Publication number: 20240160174Abstract: A method may include receiving, via a secure deployment management (SDM) system, data associated with operations of an industrial device from a SDM node associated with the industrial device. The data is received via a secure communication channel established by the SDM system with the SDM node and security protocols. The SDM node is communicatively coupled with a machine learning system for sending and receiving data. The machine learning system may generate an updated machine learning model based on the data and a machine learning model representative of expected outputs associated with the operations of the industrial device and generate updated configuration data based on the updated machine learning model. The method may then include receiving the updated configuration data from the SDM node via the secure communication channel and sending the updated configuration data to the industrial device without performing security operations on the updated configuration data.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 7, 2023Publication date: May 16, 2024Inventors: Rob A. Entzminger, David C. Mazur, Nathaniel S. Sandler, Todd A. Wiese, Jonathan Alan Mills

Publication number: 20240163295Abstract: A method may include receiving, via a secure deployment management (SDM) system, configuration data associated with an industrial device, identifying, via the SDM system, a presence of a secure deployment management (SDM) node associated with the industrial device, and establishing, via the SDM system, a secure communication channel between the SDM system and the SDM node using one or more security protocols. The method may also involve sending, via the SDM system, the configuration data to the industrial device via the secure communication channel. The industrial device may receive the configuration data without performing one or more security operations on the configuration data.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 7, 2023Publication date: May 16, 2024Inventors: David C.

Publication number: 20240163249Abstract: A method may include receiving, via a secure deployment management (SDM) system, data associated with one or more operations of an industrial device from a secure deployment management (SDM) node associated with the industrial device. The data is received via a secure communication channel established by the SDM system with the SDM node and security protocols. The method also includes sending the data to a computerized maintenance management system (CMMS) container component may perform tasks in conjunction with a computerized maintenance management system (CMMS) process, such that the CMMS container component may communicate with the CMMS process via a first firewall through which the SDM system is incapable of communicating. The SDM system may enable the data associated with the operations to communicate with the SDM node through a second firewall between the SDM system and the SDM node, the second firewall being different from the first firewall.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 7, 2023Publication date: May 16, 2024Inventors: David C. Mazur, Rob A. Entzminger, Jonathan Alan Mills, Nathaniel S. Sandler, Todd A. Wiese

Patent number: 5526669Abstract: A computer controlled pull gun system for pulling interference fit fasteners into a mounting hole. The pull gun has a rotatable and axially movable mandrel the is driven by a pneumatic motor. An axially movable piston in a hydraulic cylinder of the pull gun is attached to the mandrel to move it axially after it has been threaded into an interference fit fastener. A digital control system precisely controls the operation to the functions thread mandrel, pull mandrel, unthread mandrel to quickly and efficiently install a fastener. The digital control system controls pressurized fluid pneumatic and hydraulic valves to perform the installation functions. The digital controller responds to commands from buttons on the pull gun that select the functions and determines when a fastener has been properly installed by feedback from a pressure sensing transducer. A reset command button is provided on the pull gun to abort an installation or reset the pull gun for a new installation.Type: GrantFiled: May 20, 1994Date of Patent: June 18, 1996Assignee: Hi-Shear CorporationInventors: Erik Gjovik, David Wiese

Patent number: 5180265Abstract: A lock nut to be threaded onto a threaded shank which has a keyway. The lock nut has a base, a key on the base to fit in the keyway, a peripheral wall with axial angularity spaced apart recesses, and a wave spring. The wave spring has ridges and radial tabs to fit in the recesses. An internally threaded nut has radially-extending grooves complementary to the ridges to hold the nut against rotation relative to the wave spring when the ridges fit in the grooves. The tabs can be contacted by a drive member to compress the wave spring and remove the ridges from the grooves to enable the nut to turn during installation and removal.Type: GrantFiled: February 24, 1992Date of Patent: January 19, 1993Assignee: Hi-Shear CorporationInventor: David Wiese
