Patents by Inventor Pinghua JIANG

Pinghua JIANG has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 11986684
    Abstract: Various embodiments illustrated herein disclose a full body harness that includes a connector. The connector includes a first plate and a second plate, where the first plate is identical to the second plate. The first plate and the second plate includes a plurality of slits to facilitate passage of a first harness and a second harness there through. The first plate is rotatably coupled to the second plate such that they are rotatable with respect to each other. Such a connector automatically enables easy adjustment of the harness based on an activity of a user who is wearing the harness.

  • Patent number: 11694534
    Abstract: Apparatus and associated methods relate to a smart hook, a safety harness module, and associated electronic components that detect a safety state of a user by monitoring various parameters at the smart hook and safety harness module and determining whether the user is using proper safety protocol at extreme heights and/or whether the user has experienced a height-related accident. In an illustrative example, the user may don a safety harness that may include a module that contains sensors that monitor an acceleration/velocity/position of the user and/or ambient air pressure around the user. The module may receive wireless signals from at least one rebar hook having sensors that monitor the acceleration/velocity/position and gate position of the rebar hooks. A controller included with the safety harness module may use these sensors to advantageously determine the safety state of the user and generate alert/warning signals.

  • Patent number: 11393313
    Abstract: Apparatus and associated methods relate to a smart hook, a safety harness module (125), and associated electronic components that detect a safety state of a user by monitoring various parameters at the smart hook and safety harness module (125) and determining whether the user is using proper safety protocol at extreme heights and/or whether the user has experienced a height-related accident. In an illustrative example, the user may don a safety harness (115) that may include a module (125) that contains sensors that monitor an acceleration/velocity/position of the user and/or ambient air pressure around the user. The module (125) may receive wireless signals from at least one rebar hook (120a, 120b) having sensors that monitor the acceleration/velocity/position and gate position of the rebar hooks (120a, 120b). A controller included with the safety harness module (125) may use these sensors to advantageously determine the safety state of the user and generate alert/warning signals.
