  • Publication number: 20210094506
    Abstract: According to one aspect, a method includes detecting, through a detection interface of a vehicle, an installation of a first compartment insert in a first compartment of the vehicle, wherein detecting the installation includes determining when the detection interface is in contact with a second interface of the first compartment insert. After detecting the installation of the first compartment insert, it is determined whether the first compartment insert is capable of transmitting information to the vehicle. The method also includes obtaining the information from the first compartment insert when it is determined that the first compartment insert is capable of transmitting the information to the vehicle, and identifying a type associated with the first compartment insert from the information.

  • Publication number: 20200185911
    Abstract: An electronic fuse (e-fuse) for controlling input current of a load includes a transistor switch and a transorb device that is coupled in parallel to the transistor switch between a source and a drain of the transistor switch. A circuit comprising the transistor switch and the transorb device in parallel comprises a first end and a second end. The first end of the circuit is coupled to a power bus. The second end of the circuit is coupled to a first node of the load. The e-fuse includes an RC circuit comprising a resistor coupled in series with a first capacitor. The RC circuit is coupled between the power bus at the first end of the circuit and a return. The return is coupled to a second node of the load. The e-fuse includes a second capacitor that is coupled between the return and the second end of the circuit.

  • Publication number: 20200119533
    Abstract: In an example embodiment, a junction box may include a flashing. The flashing may define a first groove. The first groove may be disposed relative to a first center axis on a first plane. The junction box may also include a housing. The housing may include a bottom portion. The bottom portion may define a second groove. The second groove may be disposed relative to a second center axis. The second center axis may be coincident with the first center axis in a direction that is substantially parallel to the first plane of the first groove. In addition, the second groove may be located on a second plane that is substantially parallel to the first plane of the first groove. Further, the second groove may be configured to indicate a suitable hole position in the bottom portion.

  • Patent number: 10505354
    Abstract: A junction box may include a flashing that defines a first groove. The junction box may include a housing attached to the flashing and positioned at least a first distance from a plurality of edges of the flashing. The housing may include a plurality of sidewalls that form a plurality of joints. The plurality of joints may include a first joint formed by a first sidewall and a second sidewall that is oriented towards a first edge of the flashing. The housing may include a bottom portion attached to the plurality of sidewalls and that defines a second groove. The second groove may include a second center axis that is substantially coincident with a first center axis of the first groove. The second groove may be located on a substantially parallel plane to the first groove. The second groove may indicate a suitable hole position in the bottom portion.

  • Patent number: 10230227
    Abstract: A junction box may include a flashing that includes a first and second surface. The first surface may define a first circular groove. The junction box may include a housing attached to the flashing. The housing may be positioned at least a second distance from edges of the flashing. The housing may include sidewalls that form ends, which may include a first end oriented towards a first edge of the flashing. The housing may include a bottom portion attached to the sidewalls, which may define a second circular groove. The second circular groove may include a similar diameter as the first circular groove. The second circular groove may be concentric with the first circular groove on a parallel plane. The second circular groove may indicate suitable hole positions. The housing may additionally include a top portion that defines an opening, which may be concentric with the second circular groove.

  • Publication number: 20170161798
    Abstract: Computer-based systems and methods are provided which combine subjective and objective evaluations of a specified product/service for use as a comprehensive assessment of the product/service. The subjective evaluation is made by polling the opinions of a selected plethora of competent commentators. These opinions are then tempered by personal profiles of the respective commentators to create subjectively informed comments. On the other hand, the objective valuation is based on available physical data that is pertinent to the product/service. When evaluated together, the subjective and objective evaluations combine to create weighted comments that can be presented in a suitable manner for public and personal review.

  • Publication number: 20170017923
    Abstract: A system incorporates an infrastructural method for commercializing a market unit which requires refining the initial efforts of an external entity in a commercial venture by a process of elimination. In detail, the external entity conceives a plan for possible implementation into a work product and submits the plan to an internal entity. The internal entity may then select the plan after conception, and subsequently evaluate the work product after its implementation before further development of the market unit. Credits are appropriately issued to the internal entity for selecting the plans and for evaluating the work products. Credits are also issued to the external entity for selection of its plan for implementation and for a successful evaluation of the resultant work product for development as a market unit. Credits can then be used as value for exchange with any external entity participating in the system.
