Publication number: 20230388855Abstract: In some implementations, a device may obtain load information indicating a load of a first base station, wherein the load is associated with devices connected to the first base station. The device may determine that the load satisfies a load threshold of the first base station. The device may determine that a network repeater is connected to the first base station. The device may determine that a plurality of devices are connected to the network repeater. The device may determine that the network repeater is capable of connecting to a second base station. The device may cause the network repeater to connect to the second base station to reduce the load based on: the load satisfying the load threshold, the plurality of devices being connected to the network repeater, and the network repeater being capable of connecting to the second base station.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 31, 2022Publication date: November 30, 2023Applicant: Verizon Patent and Licensing Inc.Inventor: Robert J. HARTMAN

Patent number: 11431398Abstract: A device may receive location data identifying a location of a network repeater and an identifier of a base station serving the network repeater, and may identify, based on the identifier of the base station, a first set of gNodeBs anchored to the base station. The device may identify, based on the location data, a second set of gNodeBs from a data structure, and may compare the first set of gNodeBs and the second set of gNodeBs to determine a list of gNodeBs included in the first set of gNodeBs and the second set of gNodeBs. The device may rank the list of gNodeBs, based on coverage projection recommendations, to generate a ranked list of gNodeBs, and may receive, from the data structure, configuration parameters for the ranked list of gNodeBs. The device may provide the configuration parameters for the ranked list of gNodeBs to the network repeater.Type: GrantFiled: December 14, 2020Date of Patent: August 30, 2022Assignee: Verizon Patent and Licensing Inc.Inventors: Robert J. Hartman, Samirkumar Patel, Yann Sendra, Paul R. McDonough

Patent number: 4689354Abstract: White graft polymer dispersions in polyoxyalkylene polyether polyols are employed together with flame retardant compounds to prepare flame retardant polyurethane foams. The polymer dispersions employ less than 0.1 mole of induced unsaturation per mole of polyol mixture. Improved processes for the preparation of these polymer dispersions employ either maleate or fumarate derived polyetherester polyols or polyetherester polyols prepared by reacting a polyoxyalkylene polyether polyol in the presence of a chain transfer agent with a compound selected from the group consisting of maleic acid, maleic anhydride and fumaric acid and an alkyklene oxide in the presence of salts and oxides of divalent metals.Type: GrantFiled: October 23, 1985Date of Patent: August 25, 1987Assignee: BASF CorporationInventors: Gerhard G. Ramlow, Duane A. Heyman, Oscar M. Grace, Curtis J. Reichel, Robert J. Hartman

Patent number: 4637893Abstract: A delayed co-initiation process for preparing polyol blends comprising(a) oxyalkylating a first initiator compound to obtain a polyol with a predetermined equivalent weight; and(b) adding a second initiator which may be the same as or different from the first and oxyalkylating to obtain a polyol with a predetermined equivalent weight based upon the second initiator.The resultant polyols are used in the preparation of polyurethane foams.Type: GrantFiled: May 16, 1985Date of Patent: January 20, 1987Assignee: BASF CorporationInventors: Curtis J. Reichel, William W. Levis, Jr., Robert J. Hartman

Patent number: 4615085Abstract: The present invention is directed to a dual-functioning alignment and trim device for a burial casket. An alignment and trim strip is attached to the back side of a series of decorative plates which are in turn attached to handle arms and casket handles. The trim strips are fastened in a suitable fashion, preferably by a cooperating boss and aperture arrangement. The trim strip passes through notches formed in the sides of the decorative plates and serves to align a series of decorative plates affixed to one side of a burial casket. The trim strip may conveniently be attached to the casket hardware, i.e., to the decorative plates, prior to assembly of the handle and associated hardware to the burial casket wall. In this fashion, each of the decorative plates employed is aligned in the proper position on the face of the casket wall and with respect to the other decorative plates.Type: GrantFiled: October 15, 1984Date of Patent: October 7, 1986Assignee: Batesville Casket Company, Inc.Inventor: Robert J. Hartman

Patent number: 4550194Abstract: Polyether-ester polyols are prepared by reacting a polyether polyol, maleic anhydride and an alkylene oxide in the presence of a catalyst selected from the group consisting of calcium naphthenate and cobalt naphthenate. These polyols may be used in preparing polyurethane products.Type: GrantFiled: September 29, 1982Date of Patent: October 29, 1985Assignee: BASF Wyandotte CorporationInventors: Curtis J.

Patent number: 4487854Abstract: The invention relates to polyols prepared by reacting ethylene oxide with an initiator followed by additional alkylene oxide. The ethylene oxide blocks at the initiator ranges from 1 to 30 weight percent based on the weight of the polyol. Polyurethane foams prepared from these polyols exhibit good air flow and improved load bearing properties.Type: GrantFiled: December 27, 1983Date of Patent: December 11, 1984Assignee: BASF Wyandotte CorporationInventor: Robert J.

Patent number: 4430247Abstract: An oxyalkylated product useful for making polyurethane foams is prepared by reacting an alkylene oxide with a heated mixture of a phenol and a non-phenolic active hydrogen compound, at least one of which can be halogenated, in the presence of a catalyst complex of a phenol and an iron or aluminum substance. The mixture can also include a neutral phosphorus compound and/or acid anhydrides to enhance flame retardant properties. Optionally, also, the oxyalkylation reaction can be terminated by adding a tri (lower alkyl) amine and alkylene oxide to react with residual phenolic hydrogen in the mixture.Type: GrantFiled: September 29, 1977Date of Patent: February 7, 1984Assignee: BASF Wyandotte CorporationInventors: Arthur L.
