Patent number: 11721977Abstract: A system for discovering the topology and phase of an electrical power distribution system is provided. For example, a group of meters connected to an electrical power distribution system can process sensor data obtained at the meters and generate descriptors based on the processed data and transmit the descriptors to a headend system. The headend system can, after receiving the descriptors from the various meters in the system, group these meters to generate a grouping by applying clustering algorithms to the descriptors of these meters. The headend system can further compare the current grouping with past groupings to determine a confidence level of the current grouping and assign a segment identifier or a phase identifier or both to one or more of the meters based on the confidence level.Type: GrantFiled: January 19, 2022Date of Patent: August 8, 2023Assignee: Landis+Gyr Innovations, Inc.Inventor: Ian Jackson Davis

Patent number: 11644492Abstract: A method of monitoring a functional state of an electricity meter, includes generating at least one temperature signal from which an actual temperature value of the electricity meter can be derived; determining whether the actual temperature value and/or a gradient thereof exceeds at least one threshold value derived from at least one predefined temperature curve representing predefined temperature values of the electricity meter over time according to a modelled thermal behaviour of the electricity meter. Further, a computer program, a computer-readable data carrier having stored thereon a computer program, a data carrier signal carrying a computer program, and an electricity meter configured to carry out the computer program are described. Finally, an electricity metering system, in particular an Advanced Metering Infrastructure, includes at least one electricity meter and/or at least one administration device configured to carry out a method of monitoring a functional state of an electricity meter.Type: GrantFiled: September 6, 2019Date of Patent: May 9, 2023Assignee: Landis+Gyr AGInventor: Ian Jackson Davis

Publication number: 20230068973Abstract: A method of forming a lift shaft or similar in a multi-storey building is disclosed. The method includes the casting the shaft in segments (typically in the order of 800 mm deep) and then assembling the segments atop each other to form the shaft.

Patent number: 11377838Abstract: A building construction method uses wall frames having a moveable top track. The track is fixed in a raised position so as to be load-bearing during construction, allowing construction work to progress quickly. When supporting concrete columns have cured, the fixing can be released allowing the track to move into a lowered position and for the building load to transfer to the columns.Type: GrantFiled: August 31, 2020Date of Patent: July 5, 2022Assignee: Iavilaer Proprietary LimitedInventor: Ian Jackson

Publication number: 20210120072Abstract: A computer file is processed at a first network entity (NE). At least part of the file is received from a second NE. Data relating to the received at least part of the file is transmitted to a third NE and: (i) comprises a file name of the file, the file name being transmitted to the third NE before the first NE received at least one other part of the file; and/or (ii) indicates that the first NE is processing the at least part of the file; and/or (iii) indicates that the first NE is in the process of receiving the file. Confirmation data is received from the third NE, confirming that the third NE has received the transmitted data. A file transfer acknowledgment is transmitted to the second NE on the conditions that the first NE (i) has successfully received the file and (ii) has received the confirmation data.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 26, 2020Publication date: April 22, 2021Inventors: Duncan ARCHER, Daniel Ian JACKSON, Matthew John RUSSELL

Patent number: 10855850Abstract: Data is processed in a telecommunications network. First and second notifications are received, via an input interface, from first and second Charging Trigger Functions, CTFs, in the telecommunications network. The first and second notifications relate to network resource usage in the telecommunications network. A scalable transformation function is used to transform data derived from the first and second notifications into a first usage detail report in a first detail report format and a second usage detail report in a second, different detail report format. The first and second usage detail reports are output, via an output interface, to at least one recipient system.Type: GrantFiled: June 13, 2019Date of Patent: December 1, 2020Assignee: Metaswitch Networks Ltd.Inventors: Daniel Ian Jackson, Matthew John Russell, Josephine Julie Adkin, Matthew Williams, Andrew Munro Caldwell, David Graeme Robertson

Patent number: 10533600Abstract: Fasteners such as bolts or nuts are locked by a ring and associated keys. The ring typically has a series of holes with the fasteners passing through these holes in the ring. The ring has an outer surface with studs extending upward therefrom. Typically one key for each fastener is placed adjacent to the ring after the fasteners are tightened against the ring in each hole of the ring. The key has a head opening which fits over a head of the fastener and keeps the fastener from rotating. The key also has a bore which fits upon the stud, with the stud preventing key rotation, and the key in turn preventing fastener rotation. A retainer such as a lock nut on a threaded stud or a snap ring in a grooved stud hold the key to the ring and keep the ring in position locking the fasteners.Type: GrantFiled: August 4, 2017Date of Patent: January 14, 2020Assignee: Hard Case PerformanceInventors: Ian Jackson, Daniel Martell, Justin Church
