Publication number: 20180006870Abstract: Web-enabled routers are remotely and securely administered in a centralized fashion. A router receives a configuration profile from a dedicated web domain that maintains a repository of configuration profiles for multiple routers. The web domain also provides a web portal for customized generation of new configuration profiles based on stored profiles. When a new profile is deployed to and instantiated on a router, the router transmits a “heartbeat” to ensure that it can maintain connectivity with the web domain; if not, the router reverts to a previous “failover” configuration profile that ensures connectivity to the web domain. A router also may be equipped with both a wired and a wireless (e.g., a 3G, 4G, or 4G LTE) WAN communication interface. In the event of a wired connectivity issue, the router controls the wireless WAN interface to prioritize traffic for the router heartbeat and data backup/restore operations between a computer network for which the router serves as a gateway and the web domain.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 14, 2016Publication date: January 4, 2018Inventors: Austin MCCHORD, Evan Anthony BUTHER, Daniel Charles FUHRY, Robert John GIBBONS, JR., William MOON

Publication number: 20170246203Abstract: An apparatus for portable delivery of nitric oxide without the need for pressurized tanks, power supplies, or other devices provides a single therapy session by triggering a heater to heat a reaction chamber. A piercing assembly may trigger to open sealed containers, such as bags, of liquid water or salt water in order to activate the heaters. Upon addition of liquid such as water or salt water to a chemically reactive heating element, heat is generated to activate the chemicals generating nitric oxide within a sealed reactor. Upon triggering, liquid containers are unsealed, the liquid drains down to initiate reaction of the heating chemicals, and the heat begins to penetrate the reactor. The reactor, in turn, heats its contents, which react to form nitric oxide expelled by the reactor to a line feeding a cannula for therapy.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 15, 2017Publication date: August 31, 2017Inventors: J. W. Randolph Miller, William Moon, Keith L. Merrell

Publication number: 20160121071Abstract: A delivery system utilizing a diffusion membrane that regulates the concentration of medical gases that are administered to a patient. A storage vessel contains a neat or pure medical gas under pressure that is in fluid communication with a diffusion membrane. The medical gas is then dispensed at a specified rate by diffusion across a membrane into a carrier gas. The concentration is kept constant by regulating the pressure and carder gas flow. Typical applications are for inhaled gases that are used in patient treatment and care.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 30, 2014Publication date: May 5, 2016Applicant: NU-MED PLUSInventors: William Moon, Thomas A.

Publication number: 20120206266Abstract: A heat detection system includes a temperature sensor configured for mounting in a grill interior area for determining a temperature. A transmitter is positioned outside the interior area and electrically connected to the temperature sensor to transmit a signal indicative of the temperature. A receiver is remote from the transmitter and configured to receive the temperature signal. A processor is connected to the receiver for evaluating the temperature signal. A timer and alarm are connected to the processor. The system includes programming that causes the processor to determine if the evaluated temperature exceeds a predetermined temperature, to actuate the timer if the evaluated temperature exceeds the predetermined temperature, and to actuate the alarm if the timer has expired. The system also includes programming to determine if the evaluated temperature has increased over a previously evaluated temperature more than a predetermined amount in less than a predetermined amount of time.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 15, 2011Publication date: August 16, 2012Inventor: William Moons

Publication number: 20050165998Abstract: A data storage system that has one or more IDE disk drives, each IDE disk drive connected to a USB to IDE controller, and the USB to IDE controllers are connected to one or more USB controllers. Within the data storage system (array), USB to IDE controllers are integrated into disk drive carriers. The logical interface presented to the storage array is strictly USB, and the insertion or removal of the drive carrier corresponds directly to USB device insertion/removal from the USB bus. Hubs can be used to associate up to 127 USB devices to a single USB controller, and multiple USB controllers may be utilized to increase overall system. Using the simple four wire interface of USB and the extend lengths of USB relative to IDE, a passive center plane design for the storage array is made possible by the present invention. Using USB as an internal interconnect allows the use of inexpensive IDE disk drives within a storage array with simplified cabling/signal routing, “hot plugging”, and passive center plane.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 22, 2005Publication date: July 28, 2005Applicant: Quantum CorporationInventors: Thomas Bolt, William Moon
