  • Patent number: 11994139
    Abstract: An inflatable product includes an integrated axial-flow pump which produces a high rate of inflation. The pump includes a cover mounted to a body of the pump and selectively configurable between open and closed positions. In the open position, air is allowed to flow between the inflatable chamber and the ambient air through the pump body. When the cover is closed, the air chamber of the inflatable product is sealed with respect to the ambient air such that air is retained within the inflatable chamber when inflated. A power switch is positioned to be deactivated by the cover when the cover is mounted to the body of the pump, such that replacement of the cover during inflation or deflation of the inflatable product automatically deactivates the pump.

  • Patent number: 11992049
    Abstract: An electronic cigarette includes an outer housing. An atomizing sheath is received in the outer housing. An aerosol output passageway is defined between the outer housing and the atomizing sheath. An extending portion extends inwards from an inner wall of the atomizing sheath to divide the atomizing sheath into a first sleeve body and a second sleeve body for respectively storing atomizing liquid therein. The extending portion blocks incompletely the first sleeve body from the second sleeve body so that the first sleeve body and the second sleeve body are spatially communicated with each other. An atomizing core is disposed in the second sleeve body. An atomizing passageway is formed in the atomizing core. The extending portion forms therein an airflow path penetrating a wall of the atomizing sheath. The airflow path is used to spatially communicate the atomizing passageway with the aerosol output passageway.

  • Publication number: 20240078543
    Abstract: Embodiments of this specification provide a payment service implementation method and apparatus. According to the method in the embodiments, when a payment service is performed, anonymous processing needs to be performed on original payment account information. First, a random number is used to perform transform processing on the original payment account information, so that information encrypted each time by using a public key is different. Then, the public key and an encryption algorithm obtained in advance are used to encrypt payment account information obtained after the transform processing, so as to obtain anonymous payment account information, thereby completing an anonymous processing process. After anonymous processing is completed, the obtained anonymous payment account information may be used to perform a payment operation.

  • Publication number: 20230409627
    Abstract: A computing system that can receive an object search request from a user indicating a request to search for a specific object in an area traversed by one or more autonomous vehicle. The object search request can include a set of physical characteristics of the specific object. The computing system can then transmit a signal to an autonomous vehicle indicating a request for the autonomous vehicle to search for the specific object. The signal can cause the autonomous vehicle to transmit an image, selected based on a physical characteristic of the object, to the computing system. The computing system can then generate a score indicative of a difference between one or more physical characteristic of the object in the image and the specific object. The computing system can then selectively transmit the image to a mobile device operated by the user based on the score.

  • Patent number: 11754672
    Abstract: One or more radar sensors coupled to a vehicle receive readings during a calibration time period. Each radar sensor receives data covering a field of view of the sensor, which may be split into angle-based bins. A noise-reducing filter (e.g., median filter) may be applied. A function is generated by processing raw radar cross section (RCS) returns into values plotted against angles compared to the direction that the sensor is facing. The function may be smoothed. Radar sensor measurements captured after calibration are corrected using the function, for example by automatically subtracting or dividing amounts corresponding to the function.
