  • Publication number: 20240090010
    Abstract: Techniques related to wireless communication are disclosed. Some aspects of the disclosure relate to devices and methods for improving a quality of service (QoS) by reporting near-real-time feedback relating to a delay experienced by packets queued for transmission, and dynamically scheduling a wireless station to transmit and meet its QoS. A wireless station (STA) obtains one or more packets for transmission, the packets being associated with a delay condition. The STA outputs for transmission a delay status report that includes information relating to the delay condition associated with the one or more packets. In response, the STA obtains a resource allocation for transmission of the one or more packets according to the information relating to the delay condition. Other aspects, embodiments, and features are also claimed and described.

  • Patent number: 11720775
    Abstract: A dispenser with a replaceable cartridge containing a product to be dispensed, and a housing configured to removably receive the cartridge. The cartridge has a surface that is marked with a first marking, and the housing has a surface that is marked with a second marking. The housing is configured so that, when the cartridge is received by the housing, the first marking and the second marking together form a machine readable code that is detectable from outside of the housing.

  • Publication number: 20220163038
    Abstract: Disclosed is a unique Triple bullet (shaped) magnet in wing gate design with a specific array with an electromotor assembly, which is made up of up to 4 rotating triple bullet magnet arms spaced equally apart, at 90 degrees for the 4 arm triple bullet magnet, in rotary motion, maintaining motion within the 5 spatially fixed wing gates regarding their orientation in the circle, but laterally mobile. The electromotor assembly includes receiving power from the specific solar panel array, stored and utilized power maintained and transferred into and out of the supercapacitor bank, and utilizes a one-way gate to guide electrical power from the solar type power array to the supercapacitor bank. The supercapacitors also utilize energy production from the rotary engine component through an electromagnetic generator and other corresponding energy conservation. These provide power to the electronics in the system or machine, as well as drive fans or otherwise.

  • Patent number: 11293416
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides generally for a fluid-dispensing device. More specifically, the present disclosure provides for a precision fluid-dispensing device that may deliver a predefined volume of fluid quickly and reliably. In some aspects, the precision fluid-dispensing device may be used to deliver a fluid to a receiving container, such as in a manufacturing line, as a non-limiting example. In some embodiments, the precision fluid-dispensing device may dispense very accurate volumes of fluid using the head pressure of the fluid from an elevated reservoir or pressurized fluid supply. In some implementations, the precision fluid-dispensing device may dispense fluid gently and quickly, which may allow for handling of fluids that may be sensitive to agitation or mixing.

  • Publication number: 20210127656
    Abstract: An equine boot including a sole member having an interior for receiving a bottom of a hoof; and an upper for retaining the boot on the hoof, the upper having dorsal apertures such that when the boot is worn, bulbs of the hoof protrude through respective apertures. The apertures at least partially define a bulb-engaging element for engaging the peripheries of the bulbs so as to retain the bulbs in the apertures and impede rotation of the boot relative to the hoof.

  • Patent number: 10988618
    Abstract: Novel, nano-structured particles are formed by introducing a selected solid of interest into a structured fluid matrix formed by a dispersion of a small molecule host vessel components, such as a native or modified polysaccharide, cavitand, simple sugar, disaccharide, simple polyol or other similarly structured molecule known to be useful as a host vessel, in an acidic medium or other solvent, whereby the particle size of the introduced solid is reduced and or limited in the structured fluid matrix, by incorporation into or attachment to, the host vessel. The simple, one-batch mixing process results in stabilized colloidal dispersions of the nanoparticles of a variety of solids of varying scope and function and useful in a wide variety of applications, including without limitation ceramic materials, such as hexagonal boron nitride.
