  • Patent number: 11076523
    Abstract: A tillage point for an agricultural implement includes a body extending in a lengthwise direction between a tip end and a retention end and in a vertical direction between an upper body surface and a lower body surface, where the body defines a retention slot between the upper and lower body surfaces. Additionally, the tillage point has a fin extending outwardly from the upper body surface in the vertical direction. The fin defines a height in the vertical direction between a base end of the fin positioned adjacent to the upper body surface of the body and a top end of the fin positioned opposite the base end. The fin further defines a lateral width between opposed lateral sides of the fin, where the lateral width of the fin tapers along at least a portion of the vertical height of the fin.

  • Patent number: 11083018
    Abstract: A wireless device receives one or more messages. The one or more messages comprise configuration parameters of a cell. The configuration parameters indicate: a plurality of slot format combinations of the cell; a plurality of reference signals (RS) of the cell; and a channel occupancy time (COT) radio network temporary identifier (RNTI). The wireless device receives a downlink control information (DCI) scrambled by the COT-RNTI indicating a slot format combination of the plurality of slot format combinations, for an RS of the plurality of RSs. A channel occupancy time (COT) structure is determined for the RS based on the slot format combination. A transport block is transmitted, via uplink resources of the cell, based on the COT structure.

  • Patent number: 11082753
    Abstract: A profile provider: (i) associates a primary online device (OD1) with a set-top box (STB); (ii) a location of OD1 at some point in time is estimated to be “near” the STB, thereby establishing a STB proxy location; (iii) one or more secondary online devices (OD2s) are observed to be located “near” the STB proxy location and are associated with the STB; and (iv) a television advertisement is selected to be directed to the STB, which selection is based at least in part on profile information linked to one of the associated OD2s. The method can be particularly advantageous in situations wherein: the STB is not connected to any computer network; the STB is not ever connected to the same local area network as OD1 or OD2; or television service (used by the STB) and online access (used by OD1 and OD2s) are provided by different service providers.

  • Patent number: 11080564
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer programs are presented for reclassifying content in an online service. One method includes an operation for classifying a content item, to be presented on an online service, as low-quality or approved. The method further includes an operation for storing, in a content database of the online service, the content item with a content certification record (CCR). The CCR includes a result of the classifying of the content item, a content classification platform signature (CCPS), and a content signature. Further, the method includes operations for detecting a trigger for determining if the content item has to be reclassified, and for checking if the item needs to be reclassified. The checking includes comparing the CCPS in the CCR to a latest CCPS and comparing the content signature in the CCR to a current content signature of the content item. The content item is reclassified based on the checking.

  • Patent number: 11080941
    Abstract: The techniques disclosed herein improve the efficiency of a system by providing intelligent management of content that is associated with objects displayed within communication sessions. The participants can generate a content object associated with a 3D object. The content object may be in the form of 3D virtual object such as an arrow pointing to the table, a text box of an annotation, etc. The content object may also include functional features that collect and display information voting agent. The system can generate a data structure that associates the object with the content object. The data structure enables a system to maintain an association between the object and the content object when various operations are applied to either object. Thus, if a remote computer sends a request for the content object, the associated object is delivered with the content object.
