Publication number: 20240158213Abstract: Automated jackstand systems and methods deploy a jackstand to support a front end of a trailer parked at an automated loading dock. The jackstand prevents collapse of the trailer's landing gear and prevents upending of the trailer during loading and unloading. Advantageously, by deploying the jackstand automatically, presence of personnel in the yard where tractors and trailers are moving is not required.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 22, 2024Publication date: May 16, 2024Inventors: Andrew F. Smith, Martin Edward Sotola, Peter James, Lawrence S. Klein, Matthew Steven Johannes, Jonathan Record, Garold McKinney

Patent number: 11477978Abstract: An animal trap includes an outer member, an inner member, a resilient member, a bottom portion, and a trigger. The outer member has a first lower end and a first upper end, and defines a first cavity. The inner member has a second lower end and a second upper end, and defines a second cavity. At least a portion of the inner member is positioned within the first cavity of the outer member. The inner member is slidably repositionable relative to the outer member between a cocked position and a deployed position. The resilient member is positioned to bias the inner member into the deployed position. The bottom portion is coupled to the first lower end of the outer member. At least one of the bottom portion and the first lower end of the outer member define a passage. The trigger assembly is positioned to selectively hold the inner member in the cocked position.Type: GrantFiled: December 9, 2020Date of Patent: October 25, 2022Inventors: Rex Lee McGuire, II, Lawrence Steven Jackel

Patent number: 10127261Abstract: In one aspect, a computer-implemented method for managing conflicts in a logical component hierarchy is provided. The logical component hierarchy includes an ancestor component and a descendant component associated with the ancestor component. The method uses a computer device in communication with a memory. The method includes determining, by the computer device, a requirement to replace the descendant component, within the logical component hierarchy, with an overriding component. The overriding component is associated with the ancestor component by an overriding reference. The method also includes replacing the descendant component with the overriding component within the logical component hierarchy.Type: GrantFiled: December 31, 2013Date of Patent: November 13, 2018Assignee: Dassault Systems Enovia CorporationInventors: Mahesh Raghavan, Lawrence Steven Bach, Dana Rigg, Peter Elliott Haynes

Patent number: 9626471Abstract: A computer-implemented method for filtering components from a logical component hierarchy is provided. The method uses a computing device having a processor and a memory. The method includes identifying, in the memory, a filter associated with the logical component hierarchy. The method also includes comparing, by the processor, a sub-component of the logical component hierarchy with the filter. The method further includes identifying the sub-component for filtration based on the comparison of the sub-component with the filter. The method also includes filtering the sub-component from the logical component hierarchy.Type: GrantFiled: December 16, 2014Date of Patent: April 18, 2017Assignee: Dassault Systemes Americas Corp.Inventors: Mahesh Raghavan, Lawrence Steven Bach, Dana Rigg, Peter Elliott Haynes

Publication number: 20150269372Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for maintaining user profile information and allowing for biometric verification of the user's identity. The user stores or links to personal, financial, etc. information in a web page. The user can limit the types of information that is available to others. The information can be downloaded to a portable device. The information can be used for financial transactions, where the financial information is transmitted to a web site, an ATM, credit card machine, etc. for financial approval. The information can also be used to find other users with similar interest. The user stores selected characteristics that they would like to find in other users, which are compared with other user's profiles. Matching users are aided in locating one another, where they may then prove their identity to each other by biometrically verifying that they are the owner of the user profile.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 8, 2015Publication date: September 24, 2015Inventor: Lawrence A. Stevens

Patent number: 7965764Abstract: A method and apparatus for capturing an analog waveform on a serial bus. The method comprises the steps of designating a predetermined digital data sequence, decoding a serial data signal carried on a serial data bus, and comparing the decoded serial data signal to the predetermined digital data sequence. When it is determined that a portion of the decoded serial data matches the predetermined digital data sequence, the portion of the serial data signal corresponding to the matching portion of the decoded serial data signal is marked.Type: GrantFiled: February 12, 2010Date of Patent: June 21, 2011Assignee: Lecroy CorporationInventors: Roland Gamper, Kenneth William Johnson, Gilles Ritter, Lawrence Steven Salant

Patent number: 7806053Abstract: At least some of the segments of a segmented rod projectile are provided with a mechanism that causes them to divert away from the projectile's original line of flight after the segments are separated during flight to the target. That mechanism is illustratively a notched flare. The segments illustratively divert in a predetermined dispersion pattern. In order to ensure that each segment flies in the desired direction after separation, the disclosed projectile includes a mechanism that, just prior to segment separation, arrests spin of the projectile. Thus the segments are essentially non-spinning after separation and thus the desired diversion will not be counteracted by post-separation spin of the segments.Type: GrantFiled: August 9, 2006Date of Patent: October 5, 2010Assignee: AT&T Intellectual Property II, L.P.Inventors: Hartley Hughes King, Thomas Louis Menna, Lawrence Steven Romero
