  • Publication number: 20230261287
    Abstract: The present invention pertains to an Active Battery System (ABS). The ABS eliminates the need for replacing the coin-cell CMOS battery when its service life has ended. The ABS enables a standard half-double-A battery to act as the CMOS battery and is replaceable via the front panel. Additionally, the ABS monitors the voltage of the battery and warns the user via an LED when to be replaced. The Active Battery System reduces unexpected server failures and maintenance time. The present invention comprises of a battery designed to be populated upon a circuit board is removed an exterior access point to the enclosure which contains the circuit board. The invention permits access to the battery to change it by relocating it to the front or exterior of a unit or to some accessible perimeter of a unit, with more convenience to avoid arduous disassembly.

  • Patent number: 11651403
    Abstract: The invention is incorporated into an interactive web data seller widget that enables any ecommerce site to provide access to and from large, remotely stored databases to its web visitors and for those visitors to prospect/filter within the databases, for example both via geographic and demographic criteria. Users can find, for example, appropriate geographic and demographic matches to any applicable search criteria. Additionally the invention enables the web visitor to order as a deliverable subset of the remotely stored database a detailed list of the required database subset and for the ecommerce site to sell that data subset to the visitor via a web shopping cart and checkout process. And the invention enables the web visitor to preview the selected subset of data from any database prior to placing an order for the same.

  • Publication number: 20220307891
    Abstract: In a particular embodiment, a vehicle load measurement system is described that includes a chassis configured to support a body of the vehicle. In this embodiment, the vehicle load measurement system also includes a suspension system and a plurality of angle sensors attached to the suspension system. Each angle sensor is configured to measure an angle with respect to height. In this embodiment, the plurality of angle sensors include a first sensor attached to the first side of the suspension system configured to measure a first angle and a second sensor attached to the second side of the suspension system configured to measure a second angle. According to this embodiment, the first angle and the second angle are combined to obtain a combined value representative of axle load.
