  • Patent number: 11920932
    Abstract: A wafer-level assembly method for a micro hemispherical resonator gyroscope includes: after independently manufactured glass substrates are softened and deformed at a high temperature, forming a micro hemispherical resonator on the glass substrate; forming glass substrate alignment holes at both ends of the glass substrate by laser ablation; aligning and fixing a plurality of identical micro hemispherical resonators on a wafer fixture by using the alignment holes as a reference, and then performing operations by using the wafer fixture as a unit to implement subsequent processes that include: releasing the micro hemispherical resonators, metallizing the surface, fixing to the planar electrode substrates, separating the wafer fixture and cleaning to obtain a micro hemispherical resonator gyroscope driven by a bottom planar electrode substrate.

  • Patent number: 11641878
    Abstract: An aerosol-generating device. The cavity defined together by the storage portion and the mouthpiece for accommodating the aerosol-generating substrate can effectively fix the aerosol-generating substrate, hereby preventing the aerosol-generating substrate or a tobacco residue from falling during a smoking process. In addition, when a user directly pulls an extractor out of a main body, that is, the storage portion and the mouthpiece are subjected to an axially force, the mouthpiece can radially expand outward such that the mouthpiece is separated from the storage portion. Before the extractor is detached from the main body, the main body would restrict the end of the mouthpiece adjacent to the main body from radially expanding outward.

  • Patent number: 11520981
    Abstract: A method detects anomalies in a system having sensors for collecting multivariate sensor data including discrete event sequences. The method determines, using a NMT model, pairwise relationships among the sensors based on the data. The method forms sequences of characters into sentences on a per sensor basis, by treating each discrete variable in the sequences as a character in natural language. The method translates, using the NMT, the sentences of source sensors to sentences of target sensors to obtain a translation score that quantifies a pairwise relationship strength therebetween. The method aggregates the pairwise relationships into a multivariate relationship graph having nodes representing sensors and edges denoted by the translation score for a sensor pair connected thereto to represent the pairwise relationship strength therebetween. The method performs a corrective action to correct an anomaly responsive to a detection of the anomaly relating to the sensor pair.

  • Patent number: 11194692
    Abstract: Methods and systems for system maintenance include identifying patterns in heterogeneous logs. Predictive features are extracted from a set of input logs based on the identified patterns. It is determined that the predictive features indicate a future system failure using a first model. A second model is trained, based on a target sample from the predictive features and based on weights associated with a distance between the target sample and a set of samples from the predictive features, to identify one or more parameters of the second model associated with the future system failure. A system maintenance action is performed in accordance with the identified one or more parameters.
