  • Patent number: 11972688
    Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods for providing roadside assistance services are described herein. The system can include network computing devices and computing devices associated with vehicles and service vehicles. Requests for roadside services can be automatically assigned to an available service provider. Service providers can be ranked based on a variety of criteria and requests can be assigned based on the ranking. The ranking of service providers can be adjusted based on the performance of the service provider. If a service provider takes too long to respond to a request, the request can be automatically declined and an alternative service provider can be selected.

  • Patent number: 11966864
    Abstract: Aspects described herein may provide determination of a pedestrian route for a user to reach a seating area inside of a venue. Financial transaction data of the user may be reviewed to determine the user purchased one or more tickets to an event at the venue. Information regarding the event or the venue may be determined including seating charts for the venue and whether the tickets are for assigned or unassigned seats. Crowd densities inside and outside of the venue may be determined. The pedestrian route may be determined based on the crowd densities, number of tickets, and type of seating. The route may be updated as conditions change including any change to the crowd densities or change to seating availability. The route may increase a likelihood that the user reaches the seating area prior to a start of the event, and in a less stressful manner.

  • Patent number: 11914701
    Abstract: To facilitate improved email and device security, embodiments of systems and methods include intercepting, by a processor associated with an entity, an internet request, where the internet request is produced by a link received in an email at a first computing device. The processor determines that the link is externally bound relative to an entity network. The processor determines an existence of a sandbox environment instance in a set of existing sandbox environment instances. The processor routes the link through the sandbox environment instance. The processor updates the sandbox log in the database based on the sandbox environment instance and the link. The processor causes to display on a screen of the first computing device a user interface for interacting with the link in the sandbox environment instance, and the processor logs activities associated with interacting with the link in a security log.

  • Patent number: 11827363
    Abstract: An aircraft seat diaphragm includes a pre-stretched elastomeric fabric. The elastomeric fabric is bonded to a composite frame with features to insert the diaphragm into aircraft seat spreaders. The composite frame defines a rear extension that extends up along the rear of the seat for added support. The rear extension may correspond to a fabric portion that releasably attaches to the seat back of the aircraft seat. Rear attachment features on the composite frame engage clips on the rear of a seat cushion to hold the seat cushion in place.

  • Publication number: 20230249832
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides an armrest assembly easily installed and removed while in service, and while also maintaining a discreet connection. The armrest assembly includes a pivot block holding an armrest and rotatably coupled to a frame member, for instance a fixed seat spreader. The pivot block and frame member have mating stop block features that allow the armrest to rotate while being restrained from motion in upper and lower positions. A central shaft common to the pivot block allows for rotation. A retention pin is installed perpendicular to the axis of rotation through the spreader and is received in an annular groove formed in the shaft to retain the pivot block while allowing its rotation.

  • Patent number: 11691738
    Abstract: A spring-based seat diaphragm may include at least one support diaphragm component. The at least one support diaphragm component may be transversely coupled to the first structural beam and the second structural beam. The spring-based seat diaphragm may include at least one spring. The at least one spring may be proximate to the at least one support diaphragm component. The at least one spring may be parallel to or positioned transverse to the at least one support diaphragm component between the first primary spreader and the second primary spreader. The at least one spring may include a plurality of bends configured to distribute user weight applied to a cushion installed on the aircraft seat over the spring-based seat diaphragm. The spring-based seat diaphragm may be configured to support an aft portion of the cushion. The first structural beam may be configured to support a forward portion of the cushion.

  • Patent number: 11542736
    Abstract: A piano hinge can include a first hinge portion configured to attach to a first door edge, the first portion having a first front face, a first jamb face extending rearward from the first front face, and one or more first hinge knuckles extending from either or both of the first front face and the first jamb face. The first front face can be configured to extend over the one or more first hinge knuckles in a lateral direction such that the first front face hides the one or more first hinge knuckles behind first front face.

  • Patent number: 11465752
    Abstract: A seat assembly configured to be employed in vehicle seats such as aircraft passenger seats. The seat assembly includes a seat frame having first and second spaced frame members and first and second spaced transverse beams. A plurality of springs positioned proximate an aft end of the seat frame generally above the second transverse beam span between the first and second frame members. A support member is attached to the plurality of springs and to a seat back attachable to the seat frame. A cushion assembly mounts on the seat frame such that the aft end rests on the plurality of springs while the forward end rests on the front transverse beam. In use, as the aft end of the cushion assembly deflects downward toward the second transverse beam the forward end simultaneously rotates around the first transverse beam.
