  • Publication number: 20170180152
    Abstract: A wireless controller area network (CAN) bus bridge includes a CAN subsystem, a wireless communication module, and a controller coupled to the CAN subsystem and the wireless communication module. The CAN subsystem is configured to be communicatively coupled to a CAN bus to receive a CAN message from the CAN bus. The wireless communication module is operable to wirelessly communicate according to two different versions of a wireless communication protocol. The CAN subsystem is configured to provide the received CAN message to the controller. The controller is programmed to generate a binary message including the received CAN message and to provide the generated binary message to the wireless communication module for transmission from the wireless CAN bus bridge using at least one of the two different versions of the wireless communication protocol.

  • Publication number: 20020084613
    Abstract: The present invention provides a rolling device that is adapted to provide a continuous rolling surface on an underside of a conventional scooter. The rolling device comprises a chassis and a series of rollers rotatably attached to the chassis, thus enabling the scooter to smoothly roll over bumps, dips, or other uneven surfaces without stopping suddenly or tipping over. The series of rollers are mounted at a uniform height that is elevated from the bottom surface of the front and rear wheels of the scooter to provide a uniform ground clearance for the scooter.

  • Patent number: 4485260
    Abstract: There is disclosed a process for the production of unsymmetrical, substituted diarylamines by the reaction of a primary aromatic amine and a substituted phenol wherein the phenol is held in excess of the primary aromatic amine thereby minimizing by-product formation as a result of self-condensation of the primary arylamine. The desired secondary amine is produced in high yield and purity by recycling the unreacted phenol.
