  • Publication number: 20240010476
    Abstract: Provided is a construction method for a fully prefabricated multi-story concrete plant, the construction method may achieve full coverage of a hoisting operation of the large beam and column prefabricated components of a floor by employing a single intelligent hoisting robot, an angle change of the track devices, an angle change of a moving device, and a self-lifting device. It is not necessary to arrange a transition track at the turn of the installation route, which saves space and installation cost, and overcomes the disadvantage of high cost caused by the traditional prefabricated construction mode of multi-story concrete plant, which needs to arrange a plurality of large hoisting equipment. It may achieve the mechanization and intelligence of the whole construction process of the fully prefabricated multi-story concrete plant.

    Abstract: A manual assembly tool (10) of the compound action type for ear clamps, including a pair of lever arms (12, 14), a pair of jaw members (16, 18). The lever arms (12, 14) are pivotably connected to each other at a pivot point (20) near a distal end of the lever arms (12, 14), where-in each lever arm (12, 14) includes a handle end (12a, 14a) on a proximal side and an extension arm (12b, 14b) extending beyond the pivot point (20). The jaw members (16, 18) include clamp edges (16a, 18a) forming a lip for receiving the clamp ears. Each of the jaw members (16, 18) is pivotably connected to the one of the extension arms (12b, 14b) at its proximal end, wherein the jaw members (16, 18) are pivotally interconnected at an intermediate portion of the jaw member (16, 18) so that closing the handle ends (12a, 14a) of the lever arms (12, 14) translates the jaw members (16, 18) towards a closed position thereof, thus squeezing the clamp ear.

  • Patent number: 11734591
    Abstract: Certain aspects involve optimizing neural networks or other models for assessing risks and generating explanatory data regarding predictor variables used in the model. In one example, a system identifies predictor variables. The system generates a neural network for determining a relationship between each predictor variable and a risk indicator. The system performs a factor analysis on the predictor variables to determine common factors. The system iteratively adjusts the neural network so that (i) a monotonic relationship exists between each common factor and the risk indicator and (ii) a respective variance inflation factor for each common factor is sufficiently low. Each variance inflation factor indicates multicollinearity among the common factors. The adjusted neural network can be used to generate explanatory indicating relationships between (i) changes in the risk indicator and (ii) changes in at least some common factors.

  • Patent number: 11461465
    Abstract: A method protects a daemon in an operating system of a host computer. The operating system detects that there is an access of a plist file of a daemon by a process in the computer. If so, then it executes a callback function registered for the plist file. The callback function sends to a kernel extension a notification of the attempted access. The kernel extension returns a value to the operating system indicating that the access should be denied. The operating system denies access to the plist file of the daemon by the process. The extension may also notify an application which prompts the user for instruction. The kernel extension also protects itself by executing its exit function when a command is given to unload the extension, and the exit function determines whether or not the command is invoked by an authorized application, such as by checking a flag.
