  • Publication number: 20240085309
    Abstract: The application is directed to methods and devices for estimating corrosion of a material. One of the methods includes obtaining data regarding corrosion. The data is obtained from various sources, such as but not limited to sensors and observational data. The data is then trained to provide for a more complete data set. The trained data is then used to estimate the expected amount of corrosion for a given situation.

  • Publication number: 20210035048
    Abstract: An electronic device and a plurality of electronic devices can provide for database management systems and related methods. The database management system can provide a secure, verifiable record of saved information. The database management system can prevent post-fact tampering of the verified record, and can provide for access to the verified record.

  • Patent number: 10847943
    Abstract: A 4-way indent tool includes a indenter actuator cam arm being movable between an unactuated position and an actuated position to actuate four indenters to crimp a terminal. The 4-way indent tool includes a drive assembly movable along the drive screw between a retracted position and an advanced position. The drive assembly has a drive nut on a drive screw and a coupler operably coupled between the drive nut and the indenter actuator cam arm. The coupler moves the indenter actuator cam arm. The coupler has a spring loaded coupling between the drive nut and the indenter actuator cam arm compressed as the coupler is moved between the retracted position and the advanced position.

  • Patent number: 10615557
    Abstract: A 4-way indent tool includes a cover holding a motor and a drive screw operably coupled to the motor and an indenter holder holding four indenters positioned orthogonally around a terminal opening configured to receive a terminal. The 4-way indent tool includes a indenter actuator cam arm positioned adjacent the indenter holder to operably engage the indenters having cam surfaces engaging the corresponding indenters to actuate the indenters. The 4-way indent tool includes a drive nut threadably coupled to the drive screw being moved linearly on the drive screw between an unactuated position and an actuated position. The indenter actuator cam arm is coupled to the drive nut and moves with the drive nut between the unactuated position and the actuated position to actuate the indenters.

  • Patent number: 7687028
    Abstract: A sequential, time-integrated collector having an electronic controller that actuates either of two electrically-actuated valves, each connected to a water reservoir. At a preset time interval (e.g., every 30 minutes), time-integrated water samples are transferred into sample vials in a multi-sample carousel. Evaporation that could change the isotopic composition of a precipitation sample is minimized by sealing the opening of each sample vial by pressing each vial against a flat, low-friction surface, such as a TeflonĀ® sheet, from the time each sample vial is filled until it is removed from the collector.
