  • Patent number: 8956186
    Abstract: A high voltage (HV) header assembly includes an outer housing having a right angle body including a first segment and a second segment oriented perpendicularly to the first segment. The first segment has a mating interface at a distal end for mating with a plug assembly. The second segment has a mounting flange at a distal end for mounting to a device. The second segment extends from the first segment such that the mounting flange is oriented perpendicularly to the mating interface. The body defines a right angle chamber extending through the first and second segments between the mating interface and the mounting flange. The chamber has first and second openings therethrough in the first and second segments, respectively. HV contacts are received in the chamber of the outer housing and are configured to electrically connect to plug contacts of the plug assembly.

  • Publication number: 20150041284
    Abstract: A dolly and methods for transporting and discharging items. The dolly includes a frame and one or more power conveyer assemblies. The one or more power conveyer assemblies include a set of transfer rollers and a drive mechanism. The drive mechanism includes a drive motor, a continuous drive belt, a set of idler pulleys, a plurality of electrical actuation members, and a foot actuation pedal. Engagement of the foot actuation pedal can cause the drive motor to rotate the continuous drive belt around the set of idler pulleys and the plurality of electrical actuation members to move the continuous drive belt into an interference position with the set of transfer rollers. This can result in rotation of the set of transfer rollers and application of a discharge force to items set upon them.

  • Publication number: 20140365253
    Abstract: A system for calculating, analyzing and tracking regulatory recovery relating to regulatory management has been developed. The system includes, a mapping interface for mapping the source data from multiple source databases, analysis keys that are applied and act as data tags to the mapped source data and a storage database for storing the mapped source data. A jurisdictional template is used for filtering mapped source data in order to model the data for a specific jurisdiction. Next, a case ledger layer that generates rate cases based on filtered mapped source data. A regulatory monitoring tool is then used to monitor regulatory recovery performance. Finally, a revenue requirements manager that analyzes both historical and forecast rate cases generates a user report.

  • Patent number: 8887045
    Abstract: Systems and methods for providing data verification are disclosed. In one exemplary method, the data is displayed in at least one display field and information related to the data is stored in at least one source file. The method includes creating a link between the display field and the source file, wherein the link is displayed in a verification panel associated with the display field. The method further includes saving link identification information, wherein the link identification information includes category information of the display field and location information of the source file, and obtaining the source file at the location specified by the link identification information, if the link is selected for display; and opening the source file and displaying the source file.

  • Patent number: 8723868
    Abstract: Systems and methods for displaying digitized waveform data on a pixilated screen are provided. Certain methods include retrieving waveform data that exists as a plurality of sequential samples in a buffer. A first sample is associated with a first point of a pixilated screen. A second sample that follows the first sample is associated with a second point of the screen. A boundary of a rectangular line segment connecting the points is determined. For each pixel of the pixilated screen that has any portion inside the boundary of the rectangular line segment, a number of subpixels within the pixel that have any portion inside the boundary of the rectangular line segment is determined and that number of subpixels is correlated with an intensity value that is then associated with the pixel. Waveform data is displayed by painting pixels of the screen with the associated intensity values.

  • Publication number: 20140052846
    Abstract: A system and method provides adaptively streaming a video over a content delivery network. A client sends a streaming request for a first portion of the video to a computer server, where the video has multiple video chunks, and each video chunk has one or more streaming parameters (e.g., priority and bitrate). The computer server retrieves the requested portion of the video and streams the first portion of the video over a content delivery network. The client monitors the video chunks received from the computer server and determines the video quality of the next portion of the video based on the monitoring. Responsive to the condition of the content delivery network being able to support streaming the next portion of the video with higher quality, the client updates the default video quality and requests the next portion of the video with the updated default video quality.

  • Patent number: 8651694
    Abstract: A lighting assembly having a plurality of light sources and a lens matrix having a plurality of lenses. The lens matrix may be positioned relative to the light sources so that each light source resides in a first orientation within one of the lenses and emits a light distribution. Relative translation between the light sources and the lens matrix alters the orientation of the light sources within the lenses, creating a different light distribution. A light source's orientation may change within the same lens, or the light source may translate to a different lens to alter the distribution of its emitted light.
