  • Publication number: 20240093438
    Abstract: Non-limiting embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a method comprising: obtaining asphalt shingle waste (ASW) and performing grinding, screening, and separating steps on the ASW. In some embodiments, granules are removed from the ASW. In some embodiments, the method transforms ASW into ASW powder. In some embodiments, the ASW powder is formed into a plurality of briquettes. In some embodiments, at least one of: the ASW powder, the plurality of briquettes, or any combination thereof is fed into a mixing process that results in an ASW powder filled coating.
    Type: Application

  • Patent number: 10279638
    Abstract: A dump truck safety light device for a transfer dump truck system. The dump truck safety light device is coupled to a trailer reach or tongue. The dump truck safety light device is configured to be in a raised configuration or in a lowered configuration. The dump truck safety light device announces the presence of a trailer reach to another vehicle that is following slightly behind a dump truck in the next lane to the left. Without the dump truck safety light device, the trailer reach would be hidden to the driver of the other vehicle in a blind spot created by the passenger door of the other vehicle.

  • Patent number: 10199833
    Abstract: Electronic devices may have several power supplies. Current from the power supplies may be provided to multiple loads, such as motors, processors, or other devices. When a current demand of one or more of the loads increases, current from the power supplies may be provided to meet the increased current demands of the one or more loads. To determine how much current can be provided to the loads from the power supplies, output currents of the power supplies can be determined, and a feedback voltage can be generated based on the output currents. The feedback voltage can be compared against hysteretic voltages to determine how much current may be transferred from the power supplies to the loads to compensate for the current demands of the loads.
