  • Patent number: 11962469
    Abstract: According to one or more embodiments of the disclosure, an asset inventory service executed by one or more devices receives telemetry data collected passively by a sensor application regarding a node in a network. The asset inventory service requests, after receiving the telemetry data, that the sensor application perform active discovery of nodes in the network. The asset inventory service receives active discovery data collected by the sensor application via active discovery of nodes in the network. The asset inventory service generates, based on the telemetry data and the active discovery data, an identity profile for the node.

  • Patent number: 10272814
    Abstract: Gravel boxes, open top containers with rolling roofs, and related methods. The rolling roof is used to cover open top containers for dry or liquid loads. The rolling roof may be manually operated with a ratcheting handle or motor in combination with two rolling mechanisms placed on each side of the roof. The rolling roof mechanism may be implemented by sliding the roof either to the left or to the right side of the container, and turning it from a horizontal position to a vertical position along the side wall. Such allows loading from either side of the container by using the full area of the opening.

  • Patent number: 9757214
    Abstract: A threaded dental implant to be screwed into a jawbone for supporting at least one abutment and/or a dental superstructure, and having a socket arrangement with a first section and a second section with respective geometrical profiles around a longitudinal center axis of the implant. The first section cooperates with the abutment for securing the abutment in a determined position in the implant. The second section cooperates with an insertion tool for screwing the implant into the jawbone. The first section includes an annular coronal contact surface on top of an opening centric at a coronal end of the implant, followed in an apical direction by a first tapered section having a diameter decreasing in the apical direction, by a first cylindrical section, by first anti-rotational elements and by a threaded section.

  • Patent number: 9314319
    Abstract: A transfer part for holding an implant has a clamping portion for clamping connection with the implant. The clamping portion has a radial groove, a clamping ring and a force transmission element. The clamping ring is insertable into the radial groove to directly engage with the implant. The force transmission element secures the clamping connection against rotation. An inner ampule for receiving and securing a transfer part for holding an implant has an upper fixing portion and a lower fixing portion. The upper fixing portion reaches to a large surface recess in the ampule for insertion and removal of the transfer part, and has a laterally open indentation enlarging towards the recess adapted for the closely fitting insertion of the transfer part. The lower fixing portion has a laterally open indentation towards the recess adapted to receive the implant.
