Patent number: 11804146Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and device embodiments for implementing a habit forming system. A habit forming service receives habit selection information from a habit forming application, determines a maturity measurement of a user based on a human behavior model, and determines a recommendation score of a behavior associated with the habit. Further, the habit forming service encodes the behavior onto a behavior taxonomy as a traversal path based on the maturity measurement, the recommendation score, and historic habit formation information, and identifies the behavior as a preferred behavior based on an attribute of the traversal path.Type: GrantFiled: September 13, 2019Date of Patent: October 31, 2023Assignee: Fresh Tri, Inc.Inventors: Kyra Bobinet, Brian Garcia, Nathaniel Hershey, Keenan Isaac Mersky Walch

Patent number: 11764532Abstract: The metal graphite grounding brush including silver is made in slide contact with a peripheral surface of an axle and grounds the axle. The mass ratio between silver and carbonaceous components including a volatile component in the brush is silver above 30% and up to 90% and carbonaceous components less than 70% and down to 10%. When the total of silver and carbonaceous components is made 100%, the volatile component is down to 2.0% and up to 15%. The brush grounds the axle reliably so that noise from a car radio is reduced and has a long service life and mechanical strength.Type: GrantFiled: November 18, 2020Date of Patent: September 19, 2023Assignee: TRIS INC.Inventors: Mitsuo Ikeda, Hirotada Kanagawa, Mitsuhiro Hirota, Yoshihiro Nishimura

Patent number: 10270322Abstract: A laminated carbon brush for a liquid pump motor slides in a liquid fuel on a disk-like commutator. The laminated carbon brush includes two layers of a lower resistivity layer and a higher resistivity layer. In both the lower resistivity layer and the higher resistivity layer, circular directional resistivities of the brush along a circular direction in the rotation of the commutator are higher than non-circular directional resistivities of the brush along a radial direction of the commutator and a perpendicular direction to the sliding surface of the commutator. A non-circular directional resistivity of the higher resistivity layer are higher than or equal to 90,000 ??·cm.

Patent number: 7586230Abstract: In a commutator of a rotary electric machine, each of commutator segments has a low-resistive layer made of a low-resistive material and a high-resistive layer made of a high-resistive material having a specific resistance higher than that of the low-resistive material. The low-resistive material contains a carbonic material and a binder. The high-resistive material contains a carbonic material, a binder and an inorganic substance such as boron nitride. A mixing ratio of the inorganic material to the high-resistive material is more than 20 wt %. Alternatively, a brush, which makes contact with the commutator segments, can have the high-resistive layer and the low-resistive layer.Type: GrantFiled: November 30, 2005Date of Patent: September 8, 2009Assignees: Denso Corporation, Tris, Inc.Inventors: Hirotake Hamamatsu, Youichi Murakami, Ryoichi Honbo, Kenzo Kiyose, Mitsuo Ikeda, Yoichi Sakaura, Shinya Nakagawa, Makoto Nishio

Patent number: 6833650Abstract: A plane commutator is comprised of a plurality of commutator segments, a plurality of base plate and a resinous boss member. The commutators are made of sintered carbon compound and disposed to provide a plane commutator surface at an end thereof and a base portion at the other end. Each commutator segment has a projection extending from the base portion. The resinous boss member is disposed in contact with the base portion. Each base plate has an engagement hole, to which one of the projections is fitted, and a terminal portion that extends along an outer periphery of the boss member. A powder-accommodation pocket is formed around a foot of each the projection so that the projection can be shaved by a corner edge of the hole. This ensures good contact of the commutators with the metal base plates and provides a sufficient manufacturing tolerance.Type: GrantFiled: June 5, 2001Date of Patent: December 21, 2004Assignees: DENSO Corporation, TRIS Inc.Inventors: Yusuke Hara, Syouichi Takenouchi, Satoshi Sugiyama, Masahiro Takahama, Kenzo Kiyose, Yoshihiro Teramoto, Noboru Yoshikawa
