Patent number: 11972384Abstract: Methods and systems for facilitating delivery of goods from a retail location to a customer are disclosed. In one method, a request is received from a customer user which includes an order for goods to be delivered from a retail store. One or more delivery users within a predefined geographic area shared with a location of the customer user are identified. A delivery user agrees to pick up the customer's order and deliver the requested goods to the customer's home. Confirmation messages are automatically sent and received when the delivery user picks up the customer's order and again when the order is delivered to the customer. The delivery user can earn rewards or payments upon completion of successful delivery.Type: GrantFiled: August 10, 2021Date of Patent: April 30, 2024Assignee: Target Brands, Inc.Inventors: Rebecca Swartz, Aarthi Srinivasan, James Neumann

Patent number: 11580586Abstract: Methods and systems for analyzing and evaluating item recommendations presented on a web site are disclosed. In one aspect, a user interface is generated for display on a website. Item recommendations personalized for an individual user are displayed within in item recommendation region of the website. Impression, clickstream, and sales data are received from user activity on the website. The impression, clickstream, and sales data are displayed on a dashboard of an administrator user interface. An administrator user can select visualizations to display on the dashboard using selectors for impressions, clicks, sales, users, and time. Two or more sets of data can be overlaid to illustrate relationships between user interactions with recommended items and actual sales of those items. The dashboard is dynamically updated in response to new data received from the website in real-time.Type: GrantFiled: June 23, 2021Date of Patent: February 14, 2023Assignee: Target Brands, Inc.Inventors: Aarthi Srinivasan, Venkataramana Bantwal Kini, James Neumann

Patent number: 9410702Abstract: Disclosed in various exemplary embodiments are turbine engine combustors with effusion and impingement cooling and methods for manufacturing the same. In one exemplary embodiment, disclosed is a combustor for a turbine engine that includes an annular liner portion including a first metering hole positioned on a cold side annular surface of the annular liner portion and an impingement chamber positioned in the annular liner. The impingement chamber connects to an entry hole on the cold side annular surface and includes a cooling air outlet passageway that is angled with respect to a hot side annular surface of the annular liner portion and that connects to an exit hole positioned on the hot side annular surface of the annular liner portion. The first metering hole is connected to the impingement chamber. The cooling air outlet passageway directs the air onto the hot side annular surface and spreads the airflow axially and laterally parallel to the hot side annular surface.Type: GrantFiled: February 10, 2014Date of Patent: August 9, 2016Assignee: HONEYWELL INTERNATIONAL INC.Inventors: Rodolphe Dudebout, Dustin Brandt, David Waldman, James Neumann, Art Payne
