  • Patent number: 11790249
    Abstract: The disclosed technology includes systems and methods for automatically generating a dynamic system context diagram based on machine-readable code. A method can include receiving, at a rules engine, machine-readable code describing interactions among a plurality of applications in software architecture, evaluating, with the rules engine in communication with a system of record (SoR), compliance of the interactions among the plurality of applications according to the SoR, identifying, with the rules engine, and based on compliance evaluation, one or more dependencies among the plurality of applications, generating, with an output engine, a system context diagram image comprising a graphical representation of the plurality of applications with associated interactions and dependencies, and outputting, for display, the system context diagram image.

  • Patent number: 11745251
    Abstract: A multiple anvil fixture possesses multiple anvils engaged to a base in a fixed relation to each other with the anvils oriented in a common direction. Each of the anvils includes a first structure and a second structure. The first structure and the second structure are slidably engaged. Each of the anvils has an extended position and a recoiled position and a biasing-element to bias the first structure and the second structure in the extended position. The multiple anvil structure can be used to rivet brackets onto containers. The anvil protrudes through the container in the extended position to help align holes in the feet of the brackets with openings in the container. The anvil then recoils beneath the container to serve for the fixation of rivets.

  • Patent number: 9789623
    Abstract: A system, apparatus, and method for releasing laser cut work pieces from a sheet of metal are provided. The system includes a support structure supporting a sheet of metal. A work piece is laser cut within the sheet of metal without completely cutting the work piece from the sheet of metal. At least one bracing member is connected to the support structure, whereby the bracing member partially inhibits movement of the sheet of metal when the sheet of metal experiences vibrations. A vibration device is engaged with the sheet of metal. Vibrating the sheet of metal causes the work pieces to separate from the sheet of metal.

  • Publication number: 20150153217
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a system comprising a storage device for articles and a load state detection device, wherein the load state detection device comprises at least one weighing apparatus and at least one evaluating device, wherein the weighing apparatus is designed and configured to detect measured values representative of a weight of the storage device and the evaluating device is designed and configured to determine the weight of the storage device based on the measured values of the weighing apparatus. The weight of the storage device is determined when the measured values of the weighing apparatus are not affected by devices of the storage device. The present disclosure further relates to a computer network having at least one such storage device and to a method for determining a load state of a storage device.
