Publication number: 20250047175Abstract: Driver circuits for a low-cost two-phase motor are disclosed. Cost reductions may be further achieved by utilizing a printed circuit board (PCB)-based stator and methods of manufacturing, as disclosed herein. The disclosed technology can be particularly well matched for use in two-phase motors, such as axial-flux motors the utilize one or more ferrite-based rotors and a printed circuit board (PCB)-based stator. In certain implementations, part or all of the motor driver circuitry may be integrated onto the same PCB as is utilized to define the stator windings. In other implementations, the motor driver circuitry may be independently utilized with other traditional electrical motors.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 1, 2024Publication date: February 6, 2025Inventors: Stephen Andrew Semidey, Charles Simons, Ryan Lucas, Ali Parsa-Sirat, Belvin Freeman, Ed Prather

Patent number: 11995217Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, that protect analytics for resources of a publisher from traffic directed to such resources by malicious entities. An analytics server receives a first message that includes an encrypted token and analytics data for a publisher-provided resource. The token includes a portion of the analytics data and a trust score indicating a likelihood that activity on the resource is attributed to a human (rather than an automated process). The analytics server decrypts the token. The analytics server determines a trustworthiness measure for the analytics data included in the first message based on the trust score (in the decrypted token) and a comparison of the analytics data in the first message and the portion of the analytics data (in the decrypted token). Based on the measure of trustworthiness, the analytics server performs analytics operations using the analytics data.Type: GrantFiled: June 7, 2023Date of Patent: May 28, 2024Assignee: Google LLCInventors: Arthur Weinberger, Aaron Malenfant, Jason Fedor, Jackson Roberts, Madhu Kallazhi Vasu, Bradley D.

Publication number: 20230236054Abstract: Embodiments are directed to a container for dispensing equal doses of a flowable solid. The container may include a body defining an interior volume including a storage volume, an outlet passage, and a dosing chamber in communication with the storage volume and the outlet passage. The container may include a closure that has a lid and a plunger. The lid may be rotatably coupled to the body such that it rotates about a first axis from a closed position to an open position. The plunger may be rotatably coupled to the lid and configured to seal the dosing chamber. The container may be configured to dispense a dose of the flowable solid when the plunger is in the unsealed position and the container is at least partially inverted, and each dose may have an equal volume.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 3, 2023Publication date: July 27, 2023Inventors: Xavier CORTADELLAS, Syed PEER, Toby Richard David WINGFIELD, Albert KWAK, Charles Simon PARADISE, Emma Pearl WILLMER-SHILES

Publication number: 20230051362Abstract: A refill cartridge and a bottle to contain the cartridge. The refill includes at least two sealed openings, one at the top and one at the bottom. They may be sealed by an in mold label. The bottle is suitable for including the cartridge and may also include a pump and a dip tube. The dip tube is used to pierce the top and bottom seals of the cartridge when the bottle closure is screwed onto the bottle. Piercing the bottom seal releases product into the water filled interior of the body of the bottle. Typically the product will be a concentrate such as a body wash or hand washing concentrate. The bottle preferably includes an aperture or window through which at least a portion of the cartridge can be seen so that the consumer can determine which variation of product is present in the refill in the bottle.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 20, 2021Publication date: February 16, 2023Applicant: Conopco, lnc., d/b/a UNILEVERInventors: Meegan DAIGLER, Albert J.

Publication number: 20220281644Abstract: Some embodiments are directed to a container for dispensing a flowable solid (e.g., powder) that comprises an interior volume and a partition separating the interior volume into a storage volume and a passage. The passage may include a dosing chamber and a passage. The storage volume may be in direct communication with the dosing chamber. The storage volume may include a floor positioned above the dosing chamber. The outlet passage may extend from the dosing chamber to an outlet. The partition may extend below the floor of the storage volume such that the partition restricts the flow of the flowable solid from the storage volume when the container is at least partially inverted to dispense a dose of flowable solid each time the container is at least partially inverted. The container may consistently dispense equal doses of flowable solid regardless the amount of flowable solid remaining in the storage volume.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 5, 2021Publication date: September 8, 2022Inventors: Joseph Thomas CLARKSON, Xavier CORTADELLAS, Renee HAMAOUI, Toby Richard David WINGFIELD, Ronald Edward ONDREY, Charles Simon PARADISE, Camille Anna RUCKER
