Patent number: 11949720Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for securing a network, for admitting new nodes into an existing network, and/or for securely forming a new network. As a non-limiting example, an existing node may be triggered by a user, in response to which the existing node communicates with a network coordinator node. Thereafter, if a new node attempts to enter the network, and also for example has been triggered by a user, the network coordinator may determine, based at least in part on parameters within the new node and the network coordinator, whether the new node can enter the network.Type: GrantFiled: May 3, 2023Date of Patent: April 2, 2024Assignee: Entropic Communications, LLCInventors: Yoav Hebron, Na Chen, Zong Liang Wu, Ronald Lee

Publication number: 20240100893Abstract: A trailer coupler includes a lock contained within a channel in a coupler body. A pin extends from the lock. The pin extends through an aperture in an end of the channel and through an aperture in a latch handle when the lock is locked. In such configuration, the pin prevents pivoting the latch handle to an open (unlocked) position. Unlocking the lock allows the lock to be moved at least partially out of the channel, which removes the pin from the aperture in the handle, allowing the handle to pivot to an open (unlocked) position.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 26, 2022Publication date: March 28, 2024Inventors: Ronald Lee, JR., Anthony Sansone
