Publication number: 20240102818Abstract: In some implementations, a computing device can proactively determine a destination and request traffic information for routes from a starting location to the destination. In some implementations, a computing device can identify some routes between a starting location and a destination as non-recommended routes and recommend other routes. In some implementations, a computing device can rank routes between a starting location and a destination based on automatically-determined user interest. In some implementations, a computing device can determine a user is familiar with a route and adjust the information presented to the user about the route accordingly.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 7, 2023Publication date: March 28, 2024Applicant: Apple Inc.Inventors: Patrick J. Coleman, Brian J. Andrich, Daniel R. Delling, Dennis Schieferdecker, Ethan T. Bold, Hengbin Luo, Michael Wegner, Rami Khawandi, Lili Cao, Hyo Jeong Shin, Richard B. Warren, Ronald K. Huang

Patent number: 5624309Abstract: A work station comprising a portable platform defining a work area for soldering and desoldering operations for electrical/electronic components with fume removal and reduced build-up of static electricity by providing a conductive surface in the work area connected to a ground and an air extraction plenum on the back side of the platform which communicates fumes from the work area to a vent. The fan communicates with the air extraction plenum to induce a negative pressure around a face side of the plenum for moving air and fumes through intake slots into the plenum. Nozzles mounted on a front side of the platform direct low pressure air flowing at a rate of one to four cubic feet per minute across the work station towards to the facing side of the plenum. A method of removing solder fumes is disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: September 18, 1995Date of Patent: April 29, 1997Inventors: Karl H. Schuepstuhl, Michael A. Wegner
