  • Publication number: 20230334022
    Abstract: There is provided a system and method for processing and storage of a time-series data stream. The method including: separating an input time-series data stream into a value array and a time array; segmenting the value array into blocks, each block including a plurality of consecutive values; performing iterations of delta encoding on the values in each block; organizing multiple delta encoded blocks in an output file structure, the output file structure further comprising the time array associated with the values in the block and a block header, the block header including: the number of values in the block; initial values for the delta encoding; and the number of iterations of delta encoding applied on the block; and outputting the multiple blocks in the output file structure.

  • Patent number: 11772937
    Abstract: An elevator car door control system includes a clutch and an interlock assembly. The clutch may include a stationary base and a slidable base movably attached to the stationary base. The stationary base may be adapted for attachment to a car door of an elevator car. The interlock assembly may include a locking arm operatively connected to the slidable base of the clutch and moveable from a locked position preventing translation relative to the elevator car to an unlocked position. When the car door is in a closed position, a door opening sequence may commence causing the slidable base to move relative to the car door, but the car door will only open if the slidable base presses against an object, such as a roller on a hoistway door, in which case the locking arm of the interlock assembly moves from the locked to the unlocked position.

  • Patent number: 11708155
    Abstract: A multimode clutch assembly is positioned in a powertrain of a rotorcraft. The clutch assembly includes a freewheeling unit having a driving mode in which torque applied to the input race is transferred to the output race and an overrunning mode in which torque applied to the output race is not transferred to the input race. A bypass assembly has an engaged position that couples the input and output races of the freewheeling unit. An actuator assembly shifts the bypass assembly between engaged and disengaged positions. An engagement status sensor is configured to determine the engagement status of the bypass assembly. In the disengaged position, the overrunning mode of the freewheeling unit is enabled such that the clutch assembly is configured for unidirectional torque transfer. In the engaged position, the overrunning mode of the freewheeling unit is disabled such that the clutch assembly is configured for bidirectional torque transfer.
