Patent number: 11163267Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure describe automatically changing a time zone of a mobile device to a current time zone. The method detects a first event for a mobile device from a plurality of events. The plurality of events represents a possible time zone change from a first time zone. The method generates a time change value based on detection of the event. The method detects a subsequent event for the mobile device and modifies the time change value. The method determines the time change value exceeds a change threshold value and changes a time zone display of the mobile device from the first time zone to a second time zone based on at least one detected event for the mobile device.Type: GrantFiled: March 26, 2019Date of Patent: November 2, 2021Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Hiroki Yoshinaga, Kousei Kawamura, Hiroki Yoshihara, Yukimasa Kizawa

Patent number: 11152774Abstract: In a connector of an electrical junction box, a protruding portion protrudes away from a tubular portion from a bottom wall of the tubular portion whose one end face is open. In a housing box, a tubular first cover portion protrudes outward from a circumferential edge portion of an insertion port, and a second cover portion protrudes from a portion of a front end face of the first cover portion. A portion of the protruding portion of the connector is inserted into the insertion port. The first cover portion covers the protruding portion, and the second cover portion covers the protruding portion with a space interposed between the second cover portion and the protruding portion 22. An adhering member is between the protruding portion of the connector and the first cover portion of the housing box and adheres to the protruding portion and the first cover portion.Type: GrantFiled: September 11, 2019Date of Patent: October 19, 2021Assignee: Sumitomo Wiring Systems, Ltd.Inventor: Hiroki Yoshihara
