Patent number: 11617938Abstract: Devices and methods for dasher board assemblies for sports such as hockey. The dasher board assemblies of various embodiments are configured to reduce impact forces when a user collides with the assembly by increasing the flexibility of the dasher board, which allows for a more gradual deceleration. In some embodiments, the dasher board assembly defines a gap behind the dasher board to allow space for deceleration. In certain embodiments, a foam material is placed between the dasher board and a frame of the assembly. In embodiments, a spline connects adjacent dasher boards without rigid connection to adjacent vertical frame elements. In embodiments, the assembly is configured to provide puck play characteristics that are comparable to conventional dasher board assemblies.Type: GrantFiled: September 28, 2021Date of Patent: April 4, 2023Assignees: Covestro LLC, Athletica Sports Systems Inc., Pittsburgh Penguins LPInventors: Jim Lorenzo, Jacob Moore, Mark Bondi, Bruce W. Irving, Brandon Radeke

Patent number: 11401838Abstract: A system for controlling actuation of an engine valve comprises a pivot and a torsion spring having first and second legs operatively connected to the pivot. A lever arm is adjustably affixed to and extending away from the pivot, and is further rotatable about a pivot axis of the pivot between a retracted position and an extended position and vice versa relative to a motion conveying component. Furthermore, a housing is provided having a pivot bore formed therein with the pivot rotatably disposed in the pivot bore. The housing further comprises a first and second openings intersecting with the pivot bore such that the first and second legs extend out of the first opening and the lever arm extends out of the second opening. When a first force is applied by the motion conveying component to the lever arm, such first force maintains the lever arm in the extended position.Type: GrantFiled: December 3, 2021Date of Patent: August 2, 2022Assignee: Jacobs Vehicle Systems, Inc.Inventors: G. Michael Gron, Jr., Jacob Moore, Justin D. Baltrucki, Eric J. Hodgkinson, Timothy P. Neal, Bruce A. Swanbon, Robb Janak, Matei Alexandru

Publication number: 20190122503Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer programs are presented for providing information in a poker game. One method includes operations for providing an interface to a player for playing a poker game, and for detecting the creation of a side pot in the poker game during play. The side pot is presented in a first format, which includes the amount of the side pot. Additionally, the method includes an operation for detecting a selection by the first player in the poker game requesting additional information about the side pot. In response to the selection, the side pot is presented in a second format, which has the amount of the side pot and one icon for each of the players participating in the side pot, where players absent from the side pot are not represented in the second format.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 18, 2018Publication date: April 25, 2019Inventors: Jacob Moore, Stacey Adams, Justin Rouse, Theodore Marston

Patent number: 9245041Abstract: Techniques described herein allow a user to automatically associate an object with a location of the user and/or the object. This object and associated location may then be transferred to an entity for publishing the object and location on a map. For example, a user may capture a digital picture or video on a device and, in response, may automatically transmit the picture or video and corresponding location data for publishing to a map that is associated with the user. The described techniques also allow a user to create a journal that is associated with an annotated map. For instance, the user may create a journal having one or more portions that are associated with one or more portions of an annotated map. As a user consumes (e.g., reads, views, listens, etc.) the created journal, the view of the map or the displayed annotations may correspondingly change. Finally, the described techniques allow for creation of multiple overlays on a digital map.Type: GrantFiled: November 9, 2008Date of Patent: January 26, 2016Assignee: GeoMonkey, Inc.Inventors: Orest Pilskalns, Kevin Karpenske, Adam McDonald, Jacob Moore

Publication number: 20120131808Abstract: Methods and apparatus for setting a lash space between a lost motion piston and an engine valve or other components of an internal combustion engine are disclosed. The apparatus may include a lock nut gauge, a zero setting gauge extending into the lock nut gauge, a lash setting gauge extending into the zero setting gauge, and a bit stem extending through the lash setting gauge. The bit stem may include a bit which is used to rotate a tappet screw that sets the lash. A key extending between the zero setting gauge and a scroll channel in the lash setting gauge may be used to control setting of the tappet screw, and thus the setting of lash.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 18, 2011Publication date: May 31, 2012Applicant: Jacobs Vehicle Systems, Inc.Inventors: Michael Spencer, Jacob Moore, Sujayakumar Kuppuswamy
