  • Patent number: 10368290
    Abstract: A method of cooperative communication link mapping and classification is provided. Location data are received defining a position of a communication node. Signal data of a communication link are monitored at the communication node with respect to a second communication node and characteristics of the signal data are identified. A location stamp of the position is applied to the characteristics of the signal data. The communication link is classified based on the characteristics of the signal data, and a map is populated classifying the communication link at the position indicated by the location stamp.

  • Patent number: 9643647
    Abstract: A vehicle steering knuckle includes a body part to which an axle is attached, an arm portion including one end integrally connected with an outer periphery of the body part and spreading outwardly from the body part along an extending axis, and a connecting portion configured to be connected with a vehicle component. The arm portion includes a first portion, a second portion, and a hollow portion. The first portion including a peripheral wall configured to enclose around the extending axis. The second portion including a peripheral wall including an opening partially opened around the extending axis. At a cross-section intersecting the extending axis, an end portion of the peripheral wall of the second portion on a side of the opening includes an enlarged portion which is enlarged in width as compared with thickness of side portions adjacent to the end portion.

  • Publication number: 20150115548
    Abstract: A composite gasket is formed of soft outer facing layers with a harder tanged material sandwiched in between. The soft outer layers allow the gasket to conform to flange irregularities, while also sealing at low bolt loads. The hard core tangs spear into the body of the facing layers during compression thereby allowing the harder tanged core to securely grip into the soft outer facings and provide a durable core throughout the entire body of the gasket.
