  • Patent number: 11946595
    Abstract: An enclosure for a fill plug is provided and includes a base to which a retainment plate is secured. The retainment plate has an opening for engaging about a throat of the fill plug such that axial and rotational movement of the fill plug relative to the base is prevented. A lid is secured to the base and is movable between a closed position in which the lid covers the base and an open position in which the base is uncovered by the lid. The lid defines a cavity for accommodating the fill plug when the lid is in the closed position. A lock is carried by the lid for locking the lid in the closed position, a spring resiliently urges the lid into the open position when the lid is unlocked, and a gasket is carried by the lid for forming a seal with the base.

  • Patent number: 11913701
    Abstract: Solid production systems, devices, and methods utilizing oleophilic surfaces are provided in accordance with various embodiments. Some embodiments include a water tank used to store fresh water. Some embodiments include an emulsion tank that may include a set of auxiliary components that may be utilized to create and/or to pump an emulsion. This auxiliary equipment may include suction headers, ejectors, pumps, mechanical mixers, and/or hydrodynamic mixers, for example. Some embodiments include a heat exchanger that may produce a cold surface for ice formation. This surface may include an oleophilic surface that may produce an affinity for oils and/or other non-polar materials. Some embodiments include piping that may allow for the connection of the other components such that ice may be formed from a flow of water from the emulsion and the overflow may be returned to the emulsion tank. Ice making methods are also provided.

  • Publication number: 20220385976
    Abstract: In some embodiments, a method selects an account associated with an application that is displaying content. A plurality of contact options is retrieved where the contact options in the plurality of contact options are able to receive pull notifications for the account. The method ranks the plurality of contact options based on information associated with the account and generates a plurality of pull notification options using the ranking of the plurality of contact options. The plurality of pull notification options is output to the application for display on the application. A pull notification option in the plurality of pull notification options is associated with information to cause an associated contact option to be contacted upon selection of the pull notification option.

  • Patent number: 11460226
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for freeze point suppression cycle control are provided in accordance with various embodiments. For example, some embodiments include a method of freeze point suppression cycle control. The method may include flowing a liquid to a first sensor; the liquid may include a mixture of a melted solid and a freeze point suppressant. The method may include determining an indicator value of a freeze point suppressant property of the liquid utilizing the first sensor. The method may include controlling a flow of the liquid to a separator utilizing a flow controller based on at least the determined indicator value of the freeze point suppressant property of the liquid; the separator may form a concentrated freeze point suppressant from the liquid. Freeze point suppression cycle control systems are also provided.

  • Patent number: 11445259
    Abstract: In some embodiments, a method receives a request for supplemental content to be displayed in a break of a video being played using a first instance of an application at a first client device. An account is associated with the first instance of the application. A plurality of contact options is retrieved for the account and ranked. The method outputs the plurality of pull notification options to the first client device based on the plurality of contact options where the plurality of pull notification options are displayed during the break. A pull notification option causes a pull notification to be sent to a second instance of the application running on a second client device and the pull notification is configured to be output by the second instance of the application on the second client device.
