Publication number: 20240080528Abstract: Methods and apparatus for generating personalized menus and a media content interface are provided. In one example, different device specific media asset lists are generated at different user devices for the same user based on the media consumption history at each device. In another example, media asset listings are displayed for multicast and on-demand media assets determined to be of interest to the user. An on-demand media asset is listed at a time when no other multicast media assets are listed. In another example, media asset listings for successive episodes of a media series are displayed in sequential order in response to an input to view successive episodes of a media series. In another example, a text search for media content is performed in which the search priority of media provider results is decreased relative to the search priority of media asset results as additional characters are added to a search string.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 20, 2023Publication date: March 7, 2024Inventors: Amit Bagga, Larry Cynkin, Jan Neumann, Hans Sayyadi, Ehsan Younessian, Mevan Samarasinghe, Brian Curtis, Muthu Manickam, Oliver Jojic, Jeanine Heck

Publication number: 20230220685Abstract: A multi-purpose tile spacing tool is disclosed. The multi-purpose tile spacing tool provides multiple functions; including obtaining a desired grout gap spacing between adjoining tiles, a lipping alignment surface tool, and a wedge for urging tiles into a desired alignment. The multi-purpose tile spacing tool includes an elongate plate having a width corresponding to a desired grout gap. A first end has a blunt squared profile of a uniform thickness, and a second end has a tapered edge for wedging tile alignments. A first multi-purpose tile spacing tool is joinable with a second via a first notch defined at an intermediate position of a bottom edge of the elongate plate with a second notch defined along a top edge to provide for a corner tool between adjoining tiles.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 12, 2022Publication date: July 13, 2023Inventor: Brian Curtis Hunt

Fixed end electronic detection of secondary load path engagement of aircraft flight control actuator
Patent number: 10974846Abstract: A detection system for detecting failure in a primary load path of a flight control actuator and annunciating engagement in a secondary load path of the flight control actuator. The failure in the primary load path causes axial movement in a secondary rod of the secondary load path. The detection system includes a secondary mounting assembly that guides axial movement of the secondary rod; and a sensor that electronically detects relative axial displacement between the secondary rod and the secondary mounting assembly upon a primary load path failure and annunciates transition to engagement in the secondary load path.Type: GrantFiled: December 7, 2017Date of Patent: April 13, 2021Assignee: Parker-Hannifin CorporationInventors: Brian Curtis Hale, Abbas M.
