Abstract: A system and method vehicle dynamic compliance and utilizing multiple vehicle odometer values is disclosed herein. The system comprises a vehicle (210) comprising an on-board computer (232) with a memory (231) having a vehicle identification number (233), a connector plug (235), and an motorized engine (234), a connected vehicle device (130) comprising a processor, a WiFi radio, a BLUETOOTH radio, a memory, and a connector for mating with the connector plug of the vehicle (210), and a mobile device (110) comprising a graphical user interface (335), a processor (310), a WiFi radio (307), a BLUETOOTH radio (306), and a cellular network interface (308).

Abstract: A system and method for utilizing data and computational information from on-vehicle and off-vehicle sources. The system comprises an assigning authority engine, a remote profile manager toolset, a plurality of databases, a plurality of cloud sources, a vehicle and a CVD within the vehicle. The dynamic, temporal combinations access data from the plurality of cloud sources comprising third party data and vehicle, timing, event, and/or positioning (“VTEP”) data to inform a plurality of instruction sets delivered by the assigning authority. One or more elements of the VTEP data is used as the basis to synchronize timing between the data, or computational outputs of two or more sources of electronic information. A single coherent information picture is generated from fusing data and computational information from the on-vehicle sources and the off-vehicle sources.

Abstract: A mounting bracket for mounting a temperature sensor, a gas valve, a power delivery unit, a controller and/or any other suitable object or device to a water heater tank. An illustrative but non-limiting example may be found in a mounting bracket that includes a polymeric body that has a sensor portion configured to receive a temperature sensor. The sensor portion may have a distal end that extends into and supports the temperature sensor within the water heater tank, and may include a shell disposed over at least a portion of the sensor portion.

The sensor portion may have a distal end that extends into and supports the temperature sensor within the water heater tank. The polymeric body may also includes a threaded portion that is configured to threadably engage a threaded spud in a water heater tank such that the distal end of the sensor portion extends into the water tank of the water heater. Various features for increasing the strength and durability of the bracket are also disclosed.

Abstract: A method and system to position a non-immersion temperature sensor relative to a water heater tank is disclosed. An illustrative but non-limiting example may be found in a mounting bracket that includes a body that has a sensor portion configured to receive at least a portion of a temperature sensor assembly. When installed, the mounting bracket may include a biasing element to bias the temperature sensor assembly towards the water heater tank. The bias element may help the temperature sensor assume a proper position relative to the water heater tank, despite variations in equipment that may exist in the field.
