Publication number: 20240131263Abstract: Systems and methods for delayed delivery of a drug are disclosed. A drug delivery system may include a delivery member for insertion into a patient and a reservoir configured to receive a volume of a drug. An energy source may be activatable by the patient to actuate the reservoir to deliver the drug to the patient as a single bolus. A lockout system may be configured to have a locked state, wherein the lockout system prevents movement of the delivery member and/or activation of the energy source, and an unlocked state, wherein the lockout system permits movement of the delivery member and/or activation of the energy source. The lockout system may be configured to automatically change from the locked state to the unlocked state after a preselected time period has elapsed. An output element may generate a detectable output after the preselected time period has elapsed for notifying the patient.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 17, 2023Publication date: April 25, 2024Inventors: Scott Robert Gibson, Adam B.

Patent number: 11960550Abstract: Described herein is a technique to facilitate filtering during candidate retrieval stage performed by an information retrieval system that utilizes embedding models. An aNN indexing structure is created for each end-user, and in some instances, each activity type. This allows a single request for candidate content items to invoke a single process to obtain content items that satisfy the filtering criteria (e.g., in this case, the in-network requirement) from the separate per-end-user indexes.Type: GrantFiled: October 26, 2022Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Francisco José Claude Faust, Ali Mohamed, Nisheedh Raveendran, Namit Sikka, Siddharth Dangi, Birjodh Singh Tiwana, Adam Robert Peck

Patent number: 11961018Abstract: The disclosed computer-implemented method may include identifying and notifying requestors that may be candidates for a particular autonomous vehicle in order to find those candidates that may be willing or able to relax their travel constraints to match the autonomous vehicle. A request flow may involve surfacing the potential option of matching to an autonomous vehicle before setting a specific destination. For example, the request flow may involve determining that an autonomous vehicle is sufficiently near an in-session potential requestor. Before the potential requestor enters a specific destination, the request flow may present the possibility of the potential requestor being matched with the autonomous vehicle. In some examples, the request flow may then provide available drop-off locations that are compatible with the autonomous vehicle for selection by the potential requestor. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: December 14, 2021Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: Lyft, Inc.Inventors: Gavin Sebastian Hurley, Leighton Kamaile Jen, Jody Metzenbaum Kelman, Rex See Chun Lam, Jonathan Patrick O'Keefe, Oleg Vadim Panichev, Arkesh Jagdish Patel, John Robert Tighe, Adam Alexander Wolf

Patent number: 11951365Abstract: A shim or badge is affixed to a golf club body to produce a cap-back iron, giving the appearance of a hollow-body iron. In this way, the golf club can be manufactured with the performance benefits of a game improvement iron, while providing the appearance of a blade, player's iron, and/or a hollow-body iron. For example, by using a lightweight and rigid shim or badge to close a cavity opening and extend into the toe portion in the golf club body, the golf club head can provide increased stiffness in the topline, while lowering CG. Various shim or badge arrangements and materials can be used, and a filler material and/or damper can be included within the cavity to improve sound and feel, while minimizing loss in COR.Type: GrantFiled: August 16, 2022Date of Patent: April 9, 2024Assignee: Taylor Made Golf Company, Inc.Inventors: Connor Mark Halberg, Adam Robert Warren, John Bernard Krzywiec, Scott Taylor, Bret H.

Patent number: 11918874Abstract: A damper is provided within the cavity of a golf club head and spans substantially the full length of the striking face from heel-to-toe of the golf club head. One or more cutouts and/or other relief is provided in the damper to reduce the surface area of the damper that contacts the rear surface of the striking face. By reducing the surface area that the damper contacts the rear surface of the striking face, the full length damper improves the sound and feel of the golf club head at impact and only minimally reduces performance of the golf club head. For example, the one or more cutouts and/or other relief maintains face flexibility, characteristic time (CT) and coefficient of restitution (COR) of the striking face.Type: GrantFiled: May 2, 2022Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignee: Taylor Made Golf Company, Inc.Inventors: Connor Mark Halberg, Adam Robert Warren, John Bernard Krzywiec, Scott Taylor, Bret H.
