  • Publication number: 20230278573
    Abstract: Motorcycle riders, being more vulnerable than drivers of four-wheeled vehicles, can especially benefit from advance warnings of hazards. Hazards are detected in the predicted path of the motorcycle or are predicted to be in the path within the next few seconds of the motorcycle's travel. The outputs from the sensors that detect the hazards are corrected for the lean of the motorcycle as it corners. The predicted path or ego lane of the motorcycle is also adjusted depending on the lean of the motorcycle.

  • Patent number: 11569592
    Abstract: A quick connect terminal assembly for attaching a conductor to an electrical circuit includes a terminal which can be attached to an electrical circuit. A retainer engages the terminal which defines a conductor space between the retainer and the terminal. The conductor space insertably receives an end of a conductor. The retainer is biased toward the terminal to compress the conductor between the terminal and the retainer. Each of the retainer and the terminal is comprised of an electrically conductive material to facilitate electrical communication between the conductor and the electrical circuit. A sheath is positioned around the terminal and the retainer to inhibit electrical communication between the conductor and external objects.

  • Patent number: 11173427
    Abstract: A separator vessel has inlet, fluid outlet, and sand outlet ports. Each of the fluid and sand outlet ports are spaced below the inlet port. The separator has an enclosure between the inlet and fluid outlet ports. The enclosure redirects the fluid stream and defines an inner cavity above a lower edge of the enclosure, the lower edge defining a liquid flow area. The separator has one or more vanes extending along an outer surface of the enclosure which redirect the fluid stream along a curved flow path as the fluid stream flows toward the lower edge, and a plurality of apertures adjacent to the vanes, the apertures permitting fluid flow into the inner cavity of the enclosure. The fluid outlet port is disposed within the inner cavity above the lower edge of the enclosure and below one or more apertures.

  • Publication number: 20170027256
    Abstract: Articles of clothing, such as gloves having a substantially seamless inner liner and methods of manufacturing the same are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a process for manufacturing a glove comprises stretching an outer layer inside-out over a glove form, such that an interior surface of the outer layer faces outward. A liner having a first side and a second side opposite the first side is cut from a fabric, such as fleece. An adhesive is deposited in an adhesive pattern onto the first side of the liner. The adhesive fuses to the interior surface of the outer layer in a heat/pressure procedure, thereby affixing the first side of the liner to the interior surface of the outer layer to form the glove. The glove is removed from the glove form and inverted to a right-side-out configuration, thereby compressing the outer layer and the liner.
