  • Patent number: 11832767
    Abstract: A micro puree machine including a housing, a power shaft, a bowl assembly and a platform. The power shaft extends from the housing. The bowl assembly including at least one locking bowl element. The platform includes at least one complementary locking platform element that is configured to engage the at least one locking bowl element such that rotation of the bowl assembly relative to the platform is prevented at times the bowl assembly is positioned thereon. The platform is rotatable from a first position to a second position relative to the housing such that the platform raises the bowl assembly towards the power shaft during the rotation of the bowl assembly and platform. The raising of the bowl assembly facilitates connection between the power shaft and a blade assembly that is positioned in a lid assembly on the bowl assembly.

  • Patent number: 11838510
    Abstract: Techniques related to coding video using adaptive quantization rounding offsets for use in transform coefficient quantization are discussed. Such techniques may include determining the value of a quantization rounding offset for a picture of a video sequence based on evaluating a maximum coding bit limit of the picture, a quantization parameter of the picture, and parameters corresponding to the video.

  • Patent number: 11838523
    Abstract: A method for implementing an adaptive color transform (ACT) during image/video encoding and decoding, comprises determining, for a conversion between a video comprising a block and a bitstream of the video, that a size of the block is greater than a maximum allowed size for an ACT mode, and performing, based on the determining, the conversion, wherein, in response to the size of the block being greater than the maximum allowed size for the ACT mode, the block is partitioned into multiple sub-blocks, and wherein each of the multiple sub-blocks share a same prediction mode, and the ACT mode is enabled at a sub-block level.

  • Patent number: 11827869
    Abstract: A container cap combined with a flavoring member extending downward into a container that the container cap engages. When the container cap is operatively associated with the opening of the container, a portion of the flavoring member is immerse in a fluid of the container. The flavoring member provides one or more flavor elements adapted to be drawn into the fluid through capillarity.

  • Patent number: 11831375
    Abstract: Aspects relate to mechanisms for wireless communication devices to report sub-band (SB) channel state information (SB-CSI). A UE receives a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) transmission from a base station. The UE transmits either an acknowledgement (ACK) transmission or a negative acknowledgement (NACK) transmission to the base station in response to a reception of the PDSCH transmission. The UE determines whether to transmit a sub-band (SB) channel state information (SB-CSI) report to the base station based on whether the ACK transmission is transmitted to the base station or whether the NACK transmission is transmitted to the base station.

  • Patent number: 11829637
    Abstract: Resources of an electronic device are partitioned into a plurality of resource portions to be utilized by a plurality of clients. Each resource portion is assigned to a respective client, has a respective partition identifier (ID), and corresponds to a plurality of memory bandwidth usage states tracked for a plurality of memory blocks. For each resource portion, each of the memory bandwidth usage states is associated with a respective memory block and indicates at least how much of a memory access bandwidth assigned to the respective partition ID to access the respective memory block is used. A usage level is determined for each resource partition based on the memory bandwidth usage states, and applied to adjust a credit count. When the credit count is adjusted beyond a request issue threshold, a next data access request is issued from a memory access request queue for the respective partition ID.

  • Patent number: 11824797
    Abstract: At a provider edge (PE) router of PE routers of an Ethernet virtual private network (EVPN) configured to implement a border gateway protocol (BGP): receiving, from a multicast receiver, a multicast join for multicast traffic originated from a multicast source; identifying a next hop PE router for the multicast source; generating an EVPN route to the PE router, the EVPN route including an EVPN instance-route target that identifies the EVPN, and a specifically targeted route target that identifies the next hop PE router and that is configured to override the EVPN instance-route target to cause only the next hop PE router, and not any other of the PE routers, to import the EVPN route, when the EVPN route is advertised across the EVPN to the PE routers; and advertising the EVPN route across the EVPN to the PE routers.

  • Patent number: 11824950
    Abstract: Provided are a method and apparatus for updating subscription information. The method includes steps described below. After a second NF transfers first subscription information to a third NF, where the first subscription information includes a first correlation identity allocated by the second NF to a first NF, the third NF allocates a second correlation identity to the first NF, and the third NF receives update subscription information of the first NF, where the update subscription information includes the second correlation identity. By using the above scheme, the issue of the lack of an update scheme of the subscription information adaptable a new system in the related art is resolved, and the update scheme of the subscription information adaptable the new system is proposed, for example, when across-NF registration of the user terminal is generated, the subscription message is updated between the new third NF and the first NF in time.
