Publication number: 20240116165Abstract: A powered fastener driver includes a driver unit, a handle unit, and a handle extension. The handle unit is selectively and removably attachable to the driver unit. The handle extension has a first end and a second end, the handle extension being selectively and removably attachable to the driver unit at the first end, and being selectively and removably attachable to the handle unit at the second end. The powered fastener driver is adjustable between a first configuration in which the handle unit is directly attached to the driver unit, and a second configuration in which the driver unit is attached to the handle extension at the first end, and the handle unit is attached to the handle extension at the second end.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 20, 2023Publication date: April 11, 2024Inventors: John S. Scott, Gareth Mueckl, Caroline Fox, Isabel M. Lloyd, Matthew Post, Adam N. Carter, Jonathan L. Lambert, Logan M. Hietpas, Matthew N. Thurin, Paul Fry, Julia L. Savich

Publication number: 20240083717Abstract: A zero-gravity hoist system including a chain fall, a motor coupled to the chain fall and configured to drive the chain fall in one or more directions, a power supply configured to provide power to the motor, and a controller having one or more electronic processors. The one or more electronic processors are configured to measure a first force of a load in response to receiving an input, store the measured first force in a memory of the controller, measure a second force of the load, determine a difference between the second measured force and the first measured force, and adjust a height of the load based on determining that the second force differs from the first force by a predetermined threshold.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 20, 2023Publication date: March 14, 2024Inventors: Matthew Post, Isabel M. Lloyd, Gareth Mueckl, John S. Scott, Matthew N. Thurin, Timothy J. Campbell, Jonathan L. Lambert, James Wekwert

Patent number: 11912545Abstract: A wireless hoist system including a first hoist device having a first motor and a first wireless transceiver and a second hoist device having a second motor and a second wireless transceiver. The wireless hoist system includes a controller in wireless communication with the first wireless transceiver and the second wireless. The controller is configured to receive a user input and determine a first operation parameter and a second operation parameter based on the user input. The controller is also configured to provide, wirelessly, a first control signal indicative of the first operation parameter to the first hoist device and provide, wirelessly, a second control signal indicative of the second operation parameter to the second hoist device. The first hoist device operates based on the first control signal and the second hoist device operates based on the second control signal.Type: GrantFiled: June 26, 2020Date of Patent: February 27, 2024Assignee: Milwaukee Electric Tool CorporationInventors: Matthew Post, Gareth Mueckl, Matthew N.

Patent number: 10437617Abstract: A host computing device can include a host domain that includes an agent for configuring the operation and/or functionality of virtual machine instances and/or operating systems associated with the instances, which may be heterogeneous (i.e., running different operating systems than each other). One or more data volumes associated with the host machine can include an image of an operating system. In an embodiment the agent can access the image of the operating system and configure operating system settings, add data, and/or remove data.Type: GrantFiled: June 12, 2017Date of Patent: October 8, 2019Assignee: AMAZON TECHNOLOGIES, INC.Inventors: Jonathan N. Scott, Vikram V. Sahijwani, George Oliver Jenkins

Patent number: 10095537Abstract: A technology is described for a load time updatable driver. An example method may include presenting a driver interface to a computing instance launched in a computing service environment that enables the computing instance to interact with a virtualized resource, where the driver interface is an interface to driver functionality that enables the computing instance to interact with the virtualized resource via a hypervisor. Context information for the computing instance may be obtained and the context information may be used to identify a driver image for the virtualized resource that enables the computing instance to interact with the virtualized resource. The driver image for the virtualized resource may be obtained and the driver image may be loaded into computer memory and registered with the driver interface.Type: GrantFiled: March 22, 2016Date of Patent: October 9, 2018Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Amit Neogy, Yisheng Lai, David Matthew Buches, Jonathan N. Scott, Murtaza S. Ghiya

Patent number: 10019568Abstract: Systems and methods for detecting the generation of authentication credentials for virtual machine instances are described. In various embodiments, an intermediary system may detect or determine, for a virtual machine instance, one or more states associated with a credential (e.g., a password) generation process and/or a get password request from a requesting user. Based on detected or determined virtual machine states, the intermediary system may provide useful and/or timely status indicators or notifications to the requesting user. In various embodiments multiple states may be determined sequentially or in parallel in order to provide more detailed information regarding whether and why a credential is or is not available, contributing to an improved user experience. For example, timely indication that a password may not be available may be useful to the requesting user who can take immediate steps to remedy the situation, such as by contacting customer service.Type: GrantFiled: November 7, 2016Date of Patent: July 10, 2018Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Jonathan N. Scott, Andrew Richard Butchart, Gaurang Pankaj Mehta
