  • Patent number: 12141619
    Abstract: Mapping information identifies ranges of files, a set of front-end microservices, and assignments of the ranges to the front-end microservices. Each front-end microservice is thereby responsible for a range of files. The files are represented by segment trees and the front-end microservices handle operations involving an upper-level of the segment trees. A file system request on a file is directed to a particular front-end microservice that is responsible for handling a particular range of files within which the file falls according to the mapping information. An indication is received from a container orchestration service that a number of front-end microservices has changed. The mapping information is updated based on the change in the number of front-end microservices.

  • Patent number: 12143769
    Abstract: A wearable loudspeaker includes a magnetic-flux-carrying housing that houses an acoustic sealing structure that separates an interior of the housing into a back volume and a front volume acoustically coupled to a sound port. A first coil is retained in the front volume and comprises a first winding about a corresponding first magnetic core. A second coil is retained in the back volume and comprises a second winding about a corresponding second magnetic core. Opposing surfaces of the first and second magnetic cores have opposite magnetic polarities and produce a magnetic field in a gap between the first and second coils. A magnetic-flux-carrying armature is movably located in the gap and fastened to the acoustic sealing structure. Sound is emitted from the sound port when the armature moves the acoustic sealing structure in the gap.

  • Patent number: 12138739
    Abstract: Apparatus are provided for automatic repositioning of fluid nozzles when operating on a workpiece with a tool. The apparatus includes a nozzle assembly configured to convey a fluid to a target zone defined on the workpiece and/or on the tool. The target zone has a location that varies over time. A spring applies a spring force to bias the nozzle assembly toward the target zone, and moves the nozzle assembly as the location of the target zone varies. The nozzle assembly moves to a position relative to the target zone by a combination of action of the spring force and of any hydrodynamic force of the fluid, when moving through the nozzle assembly.

  • Patent number: 12143936
    Abstract: The disclosure provides a method and a device in a node for wireless communication. A first node first receives a first bit field and Q second-type bit field(s), and then transmits L radio signal(s) at a first power value; the first bit field is used for determining a first reference signal resource set; each of the Q second-type bit field(s) indicates one power offset; the first power value is only related to power offsets indicated by all second-type bit fields among the Q second-type bit field(s) that correspond to a first index, and the first index is one of K1 indexes associated to the first reference signal resource set; and the first index is related to the L reference signal resource set(s). Multiple times of repetition based uplink transmissions employ a uniform power control mechanism under multiple beams, which reduces hardware requirements at terminal side and improves transmission performance.
