  • Patent number: 11982063
    Abstract: A system for levelling and gripping a jacket leg into a hollow foundation pile has a levelling assembly for adjusting the longitudinal axis of a jacket leg partially inserted in a hollow foundation pile with an actuation group arranged about the jacket leg and configured to exert a force parallel to the longitudinal axis between the upper edge of the hollow foundation pile and the jacket leg and selectively attachable to the jacket leg and recoverable for further use in another levelling assembly; and a gripping assembly for locking the jacket leg in a designated position with respect to the hollow foundation pile once leveled.

  • Publication number: 20230306515
    Abstract: A computer implemented method for managing capital for a primary entity. The method comprising: determining a baseline cash flow forecast for a time frame based on financial data associated with the primary entity for that time frame; determining one or more sub-time frames of the time frame where cash flow is predicted to be in surplus or deficit; and based on the determined sub-time frames, generating by a recommendation engine one or more recommendations to improve capital management for the primary entity.

  • Patent number: 11164674
    Abstract: A system provides cryptographic means for securing the transmission of health data from devices of varying processing power and over various network protocols. The system is configured to transmit and receive packets to and from a remote patient monitoring device over multiple types of communication sessions. The system authenticates at least some of the data packet payloads and headers using multiple message authentication codes. The system can, for one type of communication session, the simulate or intercept acknowledgement packets generated for use with another type of communication session.

  • Patent number: 10679181
    Abstract: An inventory location, such as a shelf, may be used to stow different items. The shelf is divided into a plurality of adjacent lanes, some of which may be grouped into a cluster. Items are placed upon the lanes of the cluster. Each lane includes one or more weight sensors to obtain weight data about a load on the lane. Based on the weight data and physical layout data for the shelf, one or more hypotheses may be determined for describing interactions, such as a pick or place of an item, occurring at the lanes of a cluster. One of the hypotheses may be selected as a solution for describing the interaction and used to maintain inventory quantities of items at the shelf.

  • Patent number: 10262293
    Abstract: An inventory location such as a shelf may be used to stow different types of items. The shelf may be equipped with a plurality of lanes arranged parallel to one another. Items may rest upon two or more of the lanes. Each lane includes a weight sensor that provides weight data about a load on the lane. Based on the weight data and item data indicative of individual weights of those items stowed on the shelf, interaction data indicative of an activity such as a pick or place of an item may be determined. The interaction data may specify what item was picked or placed, quantity of that item that was picked or placed, and so forth. Data from other sensors, such as a camera, may be used to determine the interaction data.

  • Patent number: 4681462
    Abstract: The recording device is embodied as a stop watch 10 comprising a watch body 11 having a two-piece strap to secure the stop watch 10 to one hand 20 of its user. On one side, the watch body 11 has a display face 13 and an elongate button 16 for controlling the functioning of the watch 10 and the display on the display face 13. A central region 26 of the watch body 11 is flexible enabling the watch body 11 to be bent in a U or J shape around the hand 20 between forefinger 28 and thumb 27, the two pieces 21, 22 of the strap holding the watch body 11 securely on the hand 20 and wrist 24. With the watch body 11 in the latter described disposition on the hand 20, the button 16 can be actuated by the finger tips 31. Thus, the stop watch 10 can be easily operated one-handed making it particularly suitable for use by athletes.
