  • Publication number: 20210000304
    Abstract: A liquid pump mechanism for a soap dispenser includes a pump body, and an outlet tube, an upper wave-shaped pad, a piston, a spring, an annular internal sleeve, and a lower wave-shaped pad which are sequentially disposed inside the pump body from top down. A dividing member formed in the pump body divides an inner cavity of the pump body into a main chamber and an inlet chamber. An outlet passage is formed in the outlet tube. The outlet tube and the main chamber are movably sealed and engaged. The piston divides the main chamber into a compatible chamber and a liquid soap chamber. An outlet hole communicating the outlet passage and the liquid soap chamber is disposed on the piston. An inlet hole communicating the liquid soap chamber and the inlet chamber is disposed on the dividing member. The upper wave-shaped pad is disposed between the outlet tube and the piston and movably closes the outlet hole.

  • Patent number: 10853511
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for data access and processing are described. To set up secure environments for data processing (e.g., including machine learning), an access control system may first receive approval from an authorized user (e.g., an approver) granting access to data objects in a multi-tenant data store. The system may determine tenant-specific paths for retrieving the data objects from the data store, and may initialize a number of virtual computing engines for accessing the data. Each computing engine may be tenant-specific based on the path(s) used by that computing engine, and each may include an access role defining the data objects or data object types accessible by that computing engine. By accessing the requested data objects according to the tenant-specific path prefixes and access roles, the virtual computing engines may securely maintain separate environments for different tenants and may only allow user access to approved tenant data.
