  • Patent number: 11413644
    Abstract: A paint applicator, kit and methodology for using the same is disclosed. For example, a paint applicator that allows a user to load a desired amount of paint, such as a water based or other low VOC paint, into the paint applicator and an advancement mechanism that dispenses paint at a rate controllable by the user is disclosed. The advancement mechanism can include a system that translates a rotational force applied to an end cap of the applicator into a linear force that advances a piston which in turn applies paint to an applicator portion. The paint applicator may be reusable or may include a ratchet system that allows for only one time use. The methodology and kit can incorporate a syringe for loading paint into the paint applicator, thus reducing the loss of paint through spilling.

  • Patent number: 11415043
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the carbon deposit buildup in the internal combustion engine, or more specifically the removal of such carbon from the induction system, combustion chamber, and the exhaust system. The method is one in which a high volumetric flow rate of chemical/chemical mixes are used to remove a greater amount of carbon from the engine. These preferred chemical/chemical mix flow rates are 6 to 9 Gallons per hour, which is approximately 9 times the volumetric flow rate of the industry standard of 1 gallon per hour.

  • Patent number: 11416441
    Abstract: Techniques for providing an RPC-less locking mechanism based on RDMA CAW for a storage cluster with an active-active architecture. The techniques include, in response to receipt at a storage node of a lock request for accessing an LBA of a storage object, synchronizing, between the storage node and a remote node, a state of a lock for the LBA. The synchronizing of the lock state includes locating an ALS object having a field containing the LBA, updating a field of the ALS object to include the storage node, and setting a field of the ALS object to a type of lock specified in the lock request. If the storage node locates the ALS object in an array maintained within visible memory on the remote node, then the storage node updates/sets corresponding fields of the ALS object by performing atomic CAW operations supported by an RDMA channel between the respective nodes.

  • Patent number: 11418933
    Abstract: A lightweight machine-to-machine (LWM2M) protocol can be utilized as a management layer for other applications pertaining to communication and retrieval of information from hardware peripherals. The applications can be managed via a client and the applications can communicate to the client via a standard proxy or message broker. Consequently, sensor codes can be decoupled from the client codes, thus allowing them to both be independent interchangeable components of a specific device's architecture. Therefore, sensors can be added, removed, and/or manipulated without modifying the underlying management layer.
