Publication number: 20190005742Abstract: A cable drum receives a length of working cable that is wound in and out from the drum in response to powered rotation of the drum with an uppermost layer of working cable on the drum forming a working surface. A torque sensor in communication with the cable drum measures a torque applied to the cable drum due to tension on the working cable from a load. A drum height gauge is provided for measuring a height of the working surface of the cable on the cable drum. A processor receives the torque value from the torque sensor and the height of the working surface from the drum height gauge and computes a force applied to the length of working cable due to the load based on the torque and height of the working surface. The work performed by the cable may be calculated to assist in determining cable health.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 22, 2018Publication date: January 3, 2019Inventors: ERIC JUSTIN SALLEE, DAVID LLOYD McCARTHY, SHANNON JONES, DARREN SCOTT BARNES, IAN CHRISTOPHER HALL, ROBERT JAY SHALLOW, JOHN W.

Patent number: 10125733Abstract: In some examples, a clip prevents relative rotation between a fuel injector and an injector cup of a fuel rail. For instance, the fuel injector may be rotated following insertion into the injector cup to prevent removal of the fuel injector. The clip includes a clip body having a pair of arms extending from the clip body with an opening between the arms for receiving the fuel injector. A tab extends from the clip body into the opening for engaging a first alignment slot in the injector cup and a second alignment slot in the fuel injector when the clip is installed on the fuel injector. Following installation of the clip on the fuel injector, the tab is disposed in the first and second alignment slots to prevent relative rotation between the fuel injector and the injector cup.Type: GrantFiled: September 12, 2017Date of Patent: November 13, 2018Assignee: Hitachi Automotive Systems Americas, Inc.Inventors: Malcolm Mizuba, Steven J. Miller, Yasuo Namaizawa, Shannon Jones, Jeff Rohrback, Anthony Boone

Patent number: 8185394Abstract: A method for providing access to data via a voice interface. In one embodiment, the system includes a voice recognition unit and a speech processing server that work together to enable users to interact with the system using voice commands guided by navigation context sensitive voice prompts, and provide user-requested data in a verbalized format back to the users. Digitized voice waveform data are processed to determine the voice commands of the user. The system also uses a “grammar” that enables users to retrieve data using intuitive natural language speech queries. In response to such a query, a corresponding data query is generated by the system to retrieve one or more data sets corresponding to the query. The user is then enabled to browse the data that are returned through voice command navigation, wherein the system “reads” the data back to the user using text-to-speech (TTS) conversion and system prompts.Type: GrantFiled: October 30, 2008Date of Patent: May 22, 2012Assignee: Siebel Systems, Inc.Inventors: Shannon Jones, Richard Gorman, Jesse Ambrose, Joseph Harb, Chris Haven

Patent number: 4764058Abstract: A dual suction unit and method of operation uses a main tube with a Venturi assembly having a primary suction inlet positioned in the inlet of the main tube and a branch tube joined at its outlet to the mid-portion of the main tube and having a secondary suction inlet at its opposite end. Compressed air flowing through the Venturi assembly induces a primary suction at its suction inlet and a significantly stronger secondary suction at the inlet of the branch tube than known in the prior art. Waste or other matter may be conveyed from separate sources to the respective primary and secondary suction inlets.Type: GrantFiled: May 9, 1986Date of Patent: August 16, 1988Assignee: Templex, Inc.Inventors: Christopher R.
