  • Patent number: 12144419
    Abstract: A flip-top table has a tabletop attached to a frame through a pivoting assembly. The tabletop is made from a ballistic resistant material and serves as a ballistic shield, rotating from its horizontal working position to a vertical shielding position. A front modesty panel is also ballistic-resistant and is mounted on the frame's front side with either a fixed connected to the frame or a hinged connection to the tabletop. A lift speed restrictor is connected between the tabletop and the frame, preventing the tabletop from being lifted too quickly and toppling the table, and it includes a biasing mechanism that provides a lifting force and helps to hold the tabletop in the shielding position. Visual markings on the table indicate to persons that the table can be used as a ballistic shield. Casters allow one or more tables to be quickly moved and repositioned into a defensive arrangement.

  • Patent number: 12148296
    Abstract: A three-dimensional grid model of a traffic scene can be determined based on grid elements. Weights can be determined for the grid elements of the three-dimensional grid model corresponding to priority regions and occluded grid elements. Grid coverage for respective stationary sensors can be determined based on the grid elements of the three-dimensional grid model. A matrix can be determined based on the grid coverage of the plurality of stationary sensors. An optimal subset of stationary sensors can be determined based on applying a greedy search algorithm to the matrix, the weights and costs corresponding to the plurality of stationary sensors to maximize the ratio of grid coverage to the cost based on poses of the plurality of stationary sensors.

  • Patent number: 12146344
    Abstract: A multipoint lock is described. The multipoint lock includes a main latch. The main latch has a latched position where the main latch is configured to extend a first distance from an unhinged edge of a door panel. The main latch is configured to be retractable toward the unhinged edge of the door panel by rotation of a latch drive hub in each of a clockwise direction and a counterclockwise direction relative to a first side of the door panel. The multipoint lock also includes at least one auxiliary latch and a deadbolt drive hub. Rotation of the deadbolt drive hub substantially simultaneously actuates the main latch and the at least one auxiliary latch.

  • Patent number: 12149334
    Abstract: A user equipment (UE) is configured to receive resource allocation information associated with an uplink physical control channel, wherein the uplink physical control channel and a physical uplink shared channel have different resources. The UE is configured to send data over the physical uplink shared channel in assigned time intervals. The UE is further configured to, in a time interval that it is not sending information over the physical uplink shared channel, to send a signal over the uplink physical control channel based on the received resource allocation information, wherein the UE is further configured to transmit the signal over the uplink physical control channel between transmissions of data over the physical uplink shared channels within a frame. The UE is configured to receive feedback information from a downlink control channel.

  • Patent number: 12145814
    Abstract: A system and method are provided for automated engaging of a truck trailer at a loading dock. Sensors measure a distance and an angle of alignment between the incoming trailer and a wall of the loading dock. An outside lighting system guides a truck driver backing the trailer toward the dock door. A vehicle restraint system fixates the trailer within the loading dock in response to signals from the sensors. An overhead dock door opens once the trailer is successfully fixated by the vehicle restraint system. A dock leveler deploys after the overhead dock door opens. An inside dock light indicates to dock personnel that the trailer is ready to be serviced. Once servicing of the trailer is finished, an automated release of the trailer from the loading dock may be initiated by PLC communication.
