Patent number: 11846936Abstract: A method for automatically collecting and analyzing data from a plurality of industrial equipment includes automatically establishing communication between sensor nodes of the plurality of equipment and a walk-in device in response to the walk-in device entering a data collection area in a facility associated with the plurality of electrical equipment. The method also includes determining if the walk-in device is an authorized device to collect data from the plurality of industrial equipment and, in response to determining the walk-in device is an authorized device, automatically collecting select data from the plurality of industrial equipment on the walk-in device. The collected data is processed and one or more actions are performed based on the collected data.Type: GrantFiled: December 6, 2019Date of Patent: December 19, 2023Assignee: Schneider Electric Systems USA, Inc.Inventors: Mark V.

Patent number: 11818002Abstract: A wireless sensor preferably has a case which is intrinsically safe and has no exposed parts which can become not intrinsically safe due to the passage of time or through contact with chemicals typically encountered in a location where the wireless sensor is used. It preferably has no integral visual display other than lights, and it preferably includes at least one signal light. The sensor preferably includes a wireless transceiver for allowing remote read and remote control of the sensor. The sensor preferably includes piezoelectric pressure detectors for allowing a user to locally interact with the sensor by pressing on the case. Data can be automatically harvested from the sensors by a portable electronic data-retrieving device which is usually geographically remote from the sensors when the portable electronic data-retrieving device and the sensors are in range of a wireless system which allows them to communicate when they are geographically proximate each other.Type: GrantFiled: June 5, 2020Date of Patent: November 14, 2023Assignee: Schneider Electric Systems USA, Inc.Inventors: Philip George Hunt, Mark V. Bertolina, Brooks Stevens Read, Bruce Henry Thompson, Richard Bruce McKinstry, Richard Allan Chaney

Patent number: 11376617Abstract: A spray device includes a bottle portion, a sleeve, and an engine. The engine includes a spring that when compressed pressurizes a chamber containing a dispensable amount of fluid from the bottle portion. The sleeve and the engine are configured to be torquable onto the bottle without compressing the spring. Rotation of the sleeve relative to the bottle by a user pressurizes a chamber containing fluid from the bottle. Auditory and/or tactile feedback is provided to the user during rotation of the sleeve thereby allowing the user to select an amount of the fluid to be dispensed. The engine includes a main spring that when compressed pressurizes a chamber containing a dispensable amount of fluid from the bottle. The spring is enclosed between a cup and a cap, which have been fused together.Type: GrantFiled: May 5, 2020Date of Patent: July 5, 2022Assignee: Alternative Packaging Solutions, LLCInventors: Brad Barron, Adam Moyo Harvey-Cook, Aled Meredydd James, Thomas Henry Thompson Louth, Matthew James Edwards

Patent number: 9357006Abstract: A mobile application platform enables a user of a mobile device to manage Personalized Offline Web Applications (POW Apps) on a variety of devices. A Virtual Directory (VD) technology that is multi-source capable permits the POW code and content to be variably localized (Developer/User controls POW content/code stored on the user's device). The end user enters login information into a mobile application that is using the engine of the mobile application platform and receives POW code and content individually configured to the end user. A content manager or publisher controls what aspects of the POW application are stored locally and what aspects are kept on the server. When content is requested that is not stored locally, the content is either downloaded and opened locally or accessed on the web server like in the case of a streaming video or audio. After viewing any portion of the video or audio file, the user can decide to download the entire video or audio for offline use.Type: GrantFiled: September 9, 2013Date of Patent: May 31, 2016Assignee: EP Visual Design, Inc.Inventors: Peter William Meyers, John Henry Thompson
