  • Publication number: 20220220751
    Abstract: A jet adapter (1) for plastering machines is designed for (semi)automatic application of materials, such as plaster, heat insulation foam, penetrating agent, etc. onto walls Thanks to its design, this unique jet adapter (1) in combination with a smart plastering machine is capable of plastering 1 m of a standard wall in 3 minutes, including plaster trowelling. The application of material onto the wall is performed by especially designed material jets (2) comprising a jet channel (22) and at least two gas feeds (24) entering the jet channel (22) at the slope ranging from 20° to 60° with reference to the axis of the jet (2), which feed the jet (2) with pressurized gas, that in the jet (2) accelerates the supplied material and provides it with energy sufficient for leaving the jet (2).

  • Patent number: 10635856
    Abstract: Methods, apparatus and computer readable media are provided for reverse editing a knowledge base from a cross tab display. A cross tab editor includes a knowledge base resident in a memory device, the knowledge base comprising attribute values and a knowledge base management system, wherein the knowledge base management system is configured to create a first list of sub-entities for a first entity, create a second list of sub-entities for a second entity, and create a relationship table listing all of the combinations of each pair of sub-entities from the first list and the second list and their attribute values. The knowledgebase management system is further configured to populate the relationship table with an attribute value for each combination. The knowledge base management system is further configured to receive a manual change in a cross tab display and to update the underlying attribute data in response to the change.

  • Patent number: 9715658
    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for generating a maintainer troubleshooting tree from the content of a digitally stored fault model of a complex system in real time. The method comprises retrieving all failure modes from a fault model of the complex system for a specific corrective action. The method then receives symptoms from sensors monitoring the complex system in real time and generates a symptom pattern and an associated symptom hash from the received symptoms. The method creates san ambiguity group from the retrieved failure modes. The method further retrieves all repair procedures and test procedures related to the ambiguity group of failure modes, creates a troubleshooting tree for the ambiguity group by ranking each repair procedure and test procedure, and retrieves all technical references encountered while creating the trouble shooting tree. The method then compiles and renders the troubleshooting tree and the references into a user perceivable document.

  • Publication number: 20150278301
    Abstract: Computer readable software objects, methods and apparatus are provided for using a path specification to limit requested entity data by designating a single explicit multiple step path between any two pairs of entity types. The computer readable software object comprises an ordered collection of path specification elements, a start entity, and an end entity. The method comprises determining a relationship specification from an input from a user. The method further includes determining if more than one path specification element exists that is associated with the relationship specification. When more than one path specification element exists, the user is provided with a choice of path specifications. The method then returns a list of entities from the destination entity type filtered through a restricted set of entities logically located between the source entity and the destination entity based exclusively on the path specification element chosen by the user.
