  • Patent number: 11617069
    Abstract: A user equipment (UE) may identify that an emergency call is being initiated and send further messages including the location of the UE. The UE receives emergency location signaling parameters, identifies that an emergency communication has been initiated by the UE based on the emergency location signaling parameters and transmits a message to an endpoint associated with emergency services based on the identification of the emergency message being initiated, wherein the message includes location information for the UE.

  • Patent number: 9989076
    Abstract: Methods and systems for harvesting mechanical energy for transformation into electrical energy are described. An energy harvesting apparatus may include a housing having fluid disposed therein and a piston assembly configured to move within the housing in one of an extension stroke and a compression stroke. The piston assembly may include a bidirectional rotor configured to rotate responsive to the piston assembly moving in either of the extension stroke and the compression stroke. The bidirectional rotor may be connected to a rotary generator such that rotational energy generated by rotation of the bidirectional rotor may be transferred to the rotary generator. Electrical energy may be produced by the rotary generator responsive to receiving the rotational energy.

  • Patent number: 9404493
    Abstract: Techniques are generally described for a progressive cavity pump and methods for making and using a progressive cavity pump. In an example, a progressive cavity pump may include a stator, a rotor and/or a bearing. The stator may include a helical shaped interior with a first pitch. The rotor may be inside the stator. The rotor may include a helical shaped exterior with a second pitch. The second pitch may be different from the first pitch. The rotor may be effective to rotate with respect to the stator and effective to move eccentrically within the stator to define at least one cavity inside the stator. At least one bearing may be between the rotor and the stator. The bearing may be sized and shaped so that the rotor is effective to rotate inside the bearing and the bearing is effective to move eccentrically along with the rotor.

  • Patent number: 8001465
    Abstract: This invention relates to computer implemented methods for accommodating elements of an information array within the physical constraints of a predetermined two dimensional display space. The maldistribution and wastage of space inherent to matrix format display is sought to be minimized by allocating space based on moderated display space requirement values of larger elements. A measurement of lopsidedness of distribution of larger elements across columns and across rows is used while allocating column widths and row heights. If the display space is inadequate for displaying the array elements in matrix format, then the elements are displayed in Tall/Wall format wherein the row/column alignment of cells, respectively, is not maintained. The information array elements may include text, image or both. Methods such as font size reduction, text abbreviation and image size reduction are used in combination with space allocation methods to fit the array elements into corresponding cells in the display space.

  • Patent number: 6279018
    Abstract: This invention relates to text abbreviation methods to cope with display or print space constraint in computer software. In particular, abbreviation of text into predetermined field widths (with single or multiple rows), utilizing an operating system (121), an application program (122), and an abbreviation control data program (123), along with combinations of prioritized shortening methods in preference to or in addition to glossaries of acronyms and word abbreviations using an abbreviation function (127) are disclosed. The special handling of segments of input contained within pairs of pre-defined characters, as well as omission of spaces, and conversion of enumeration word or word sequences to numbers utilizing an abbreviation data file (124), a parameters sets file (125), and a parameters list (126), are also disclosed. The omission of spaces and phonetically less significant characters compacts word sequences, which saves display space and enables use of larger type sizes.
