  • Patent number: 11953266
    Abstract: Techniques for utilizing excess heat generated by an oven to generate electricity are provided. In one example, an oven can comprise a coolant pathway positioned adjacent to a hollow space within the oven, wherein the hollow space can contain heat. The oven can also comprise a chamber in fluid communication with the coolant pathway. The oven can further comprise a turbine in fluid communication with the chamber and an outlet. Moreover, the oven can comprise a generator connected to the turbine, wherein rotation of the turbine can power the generator.

  • Publication number: 20240104305
    Abstract: A generative recommender method and system applies trained neural networks to infer related concepts with respect to segments of temporally sequenced content that are inferred to be of particular interest to users. The inferred related concepts of interest may be embodied, for example, in the form vectorized embeddings of natural language and/or images. The embodied inferred related concepts of interest are then input into a generative process that applies trained neural networks to execute one or more vector embedding-based steps that result in generated content elements such as video that are based upon the related concepts of interest.

  • Patent number: 11939837
    Abstract: Provided is a clutch assembly, a SSSV, and a method for operating an SSSV. The clutch assembly, in one aspect, includes an output coupler housing, an input shaft, and an electromagnet coupled to the input shaft. In at least one aspect, the electromagnet is configured to axially translate the output coupler housing from a de-coupled state to a coupled state when the electromagnet is energized. The clutch assembly, in one aspect, further includes one or more grooves located in one of an outer surface of the input shaft or an inner surface of the central opening, and one or more engagement members located in the other of the inner surface of the central opening or the outer surface of the input shaft.

  • Publication number: 20240090928
    Abstract: Certain embodiments of the invention provide plates for treating periarticular fractures or other non-full body weight bearing applications that combine polyaxial fixation with a low profile and enhanced contouring that more closely conforms to bone. Such plates can be designed to achieve buttressing effect and/or to be used in a reinforcement mode. Other features can be combined with these. Such plates can be created for use on bone sites such as on a tibia, fibula, metatarsal, calcaneous, other foot bone, humerus, radius, ulna, spinal, maxillofacial, as well as sites on other bones.

  • Patent number: 11847593
    Abstract: A system and method are disclosed for determining long-range staff planning. Embodiments include determining a baseline measurement of labor needs over a time period of one or more employees at one or more entities and modifying the baseline measurement of the labor needs over the time period based on one or more constraints that allow the one or more employees to work additional types of labor needs at the one or more entities. Embodiments further include determining working times and job assignments of the one or more employees based on one or more simulated employees that represent potential employees to the modified baseline measurement of the labor needs over the time period and storing the determined working times and job assignments in the database for the one or more employees at the one or more entities.

  • Publication number: 20230055793
    Abstract: A perineal bandage for preventing and treating tears that occur during childbirth. The perineal bandage may comprise a flexible bandage comprising a first side and a second side, wherein the second side comprises an adhesive configured to adhere the bandage to the skin of a patient. The perineal bandage may further include a plurality of tearing zones that tear before the bandage. The perineal bandage may further include a reinforced region disposed along a portion of a bottom edge of the bandage, wherein the reinforced region requires a greater amount of force to tear than the bandage and the tearing zones.
