Patent number: 12089351Abstract: A power supply apparatus is provided including a housing, at least one battery receptacle for receiving at least one removable battery pack, an inverter that converts a direct-current (DC) signal from the at least one battery pack to an alternating-current (AC) signal, and a controller that applies a pulse-width modulation (PWM) signal to the inverter to shape the AC signal with a lower harmonic distortion relative to a square wave. For each full cycle of the AC signal, the controller sets the duty cycle to approximately 100% within a first period corresponding to a peak area of the AC signal, to less than approximately 100% but greater than approximately 0% within a second period in which the AC signal transitions from the peak to a zero-cross following the first period, and to 0% within a third period corresponding to the zero-cross of the AC signal following the second period.Type: GrantFiled: May 27, 2020Date of Patent: September 10, 2024Assignee: BLACK & DECKER INC.Inventors: Snehal S. Choksi, Geoffrey S. Howard, Daniel L. Schwarz, Thomas C. Kohler, Keith Hopwood, Richard A. Sy, Chun-Te Chin, Jiunping Huang, Minghuang Hung

Patent number: 11822918Abstract: A system and method may provide assistance to programmers during programming to reduce the number of routine tasks that must be performed. In some aspects, the system may provide for searching a corpus of source code based on keyword or natural language search input. Search results including code entities and snippets of code that are described by the search input are then provided as search results. Some embodiments relate to using a neural network encoder to generate tensor embeddings of source code and related text in a joint tensor space. Relatedness between embeddings in this joint tensor space for text and associated source code is used in some embodiments to facilitate code search.Type: GrantFiled: October 14, 2019Date of Patent: November 21, 2023Assignee: Affirm, Inc.Inventors: Adam Smith, Tarak Upadhyaya, Juan Lozano, Daniel Hung

Patent number: 11593562Abstract: A smart assistant is disclosed that provides for interfaces to capture requirements for a technical assistance request and then execute actions responsive to the technical assistance request. Example embodiments relate to parsing natural language input defining a technical assistance request to determine a series of instructions responsive to the technical assistance request. The smart assistant may also automatically detect a condition and generate a technical assistance request responsive to the condition. One or more driver applications may control or command one or more computing systems to respond to the technical assistance request.Type: GrantFiled: November 11, 2019Date of Patent: February 28, 2023Assignee: Affirm, Inc.Inventors: Adam Smith, Tarak Upadhyaya, Juan Lozano, Daniel Hung
