Patent number: 11198484Abstract: An electric vehicle includes a battery having a housing. The housing includes a rear side which is defined as a side facing away from a forward travelling direction of the electric vehicle. The electric vehicle further includes a frame, a motor having a housing, and a pivot shaft stack-up assembly co-aligned along a pivot shaft axis. The pivot shaft stack-up assembly includes first and second portions of the frame, a swingarm extending therebetween, and an idler bracket. A shock mount is integral with the battery housing. The shock mount extends from the rear side of the battery housing. The battery housing is configured as a stressed chassis member in which each of the motor housing, the frame, and the pivot shaft stack-up assembly are aligned thereof. The shock mount provides a path along which a load is directed to the battery housing.Type: GrantFiled: July 25, 2019Date of Patent: December 14, 2021Assignee: Harley-Davidson Motor Company Group, LLCInventors: David Isaac Aunkst, Curt Zackiewicz, Ronald Hurth, Brandon James Deaner, Brian M.

Patent number: 11142284Abstract: A vehicle includes a frame, powertrain unit having output shaft, and a drive sprocket coupled to the output shaft for rotation therewith. A swing arm has a first end pivotably coupled to the frame and a second end supporting a drive wheel of the vehicle. A wheel sprocket is coupled to the drive wheel for rotation therewith, and a flexible final drive member is wrapped around the drive sprocket and the wheel sprocket to establish a driving relationship therebetween, the flexible final drive member forming a loop. An idler bracket is fixed with respect to the frame and supporting both an upper idler and a backside idler. The upper idler is positioned within the loop such that the flexible member engages an upper side of the upper idler. The backside idler is positioned outside the loop such that the flexible member engages an upper side of the backside idler.Type: GrantFiled: May 31, 2019Date of Patent: October 12, 2021Assignee: Harley-Davidson Motor Company Group, LLCInventors: Ben Matthew Lund, Senthilkumar Vijayakumar, Steven D.

Publication number: 20210295155Abstract: Image analysis is a vital field since images can provide contextual, environmental, and emotional factors. Conventional methods are facing challenges in analyzing an image accurately when the image is having lesser data or if the image is having less resolution. Conventional machine learning architectures are computationally intensive when run on high power computing devices for training and inference. The present disclosure provides a robust deep learning model to inference in any given environmental condition. Initially, image data is generated using a pre-trained Generative Adversarial Network (GAN). The GAN receives a plurality of images of varying domain and generates image data. The image data is annotated and segmented to obtain a contextual label map. The contextual label map is given as input to a pre-trained transfer learning model to obtain a plurality of image attributes including number of objects and activity performed by each object.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 8, 2021Publication date: September 23, 2021Applicant: Tata Consultancy Services LimitedInventor: Senthilkumar VIJAYAKUMAR

Patent number: 10718338Abstract: A system and method for a battery-operated back-up sump pump. The method includes providing a back-up sump pump kit including the back-up sump pump, a first check valve, a second check valve, and a joint. The method also includes cutting a discharge pipe extending from a primary sump pump in a sump pit in order to create a first end open toward the primary sump pump that remains in the sump pit and a second end open toward the discharge pipe leading out of the sump pit. The method further includes installing the first check valve at the first end of the cut discharge pipe, installing the second check valve downstream from the battery-operated back-up sump pump, coupling the first check valve and the second check valve to the joint, and coupling the joint to the second end of the cut discharge pipe.Type: GrantFiled: November 14, 2017Date of Patent: July 21, 2020Assignee: Pentair Flow Technologies, LLCInventor: Senthilkumar Vijayakumar
