  • Publication number: 20240283675
    Abstract: A building management system for a building including one or more storage devices storing instructions thereon that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to ingest event information from at least one of a building system or an external computing system, enrich the event information based on a digital twin associated with the event information, wherein enriching the event information includes adding contextual information to the event information based on the digital twin to generate enriched event information, generate a predicted parameter that will result from a control decision for operating at least one of the building system or a different building system based on the enriched event information, and modify the control decision based on the predicted parameter.

  • Patent number: 11371232
    Abstract: The modular toilet flange may be a fitting that mounts a toilet to a floor and directs effluent from the toilet to an outflow pipe. The modular toilet flange may comprise a flange body and an inner ring. The flange body may couple to the floor and to the outflow pipe. The inner ring may be a circular depression in the flange body surrounding an open center of the flange body. A pair of bolts extending downward through the toilet may couple to the inner ring by engaging the inner ring. During installation, the toilet may be operable to rotate above the flange body to any angle and still engage the inner ring, thus eliminating a need for a specific alignment of the toilet with mounting bolts extending upwards from a flange.

  • Patent number: 8906050
    Abstract: A medical device for creating and closing an opening through a vessel wall is described. The device includes a guiding engagement element positioned in a vessel wall; an incising member positionable over the engagement element; and a cutting element, with a recessed notch, at a distal end of the incising member. The cutting element forms a flap on a first portion of a vessel wall, the flap having a first portion attached to the wall and second portion having a first diameter cut and a second diameter cut larger than the first diameter cut. The engagement element includes a retaining element engaging a portion of the flap; and an anchoring element engaging an external surface of the vessel, wherein the retaining element and the anchoring element exert a compressive force on the vessel wall for assisting closure of the cut.

  • Patent number: 8650298
    Abstract: The present application provides a scalable system for managing requests for compute resources using a cloud computing architecture. The system estimates the total processing time of each computation in advance and monitors the progress of each computation to provide a more accurate estimate of remaining processing time. In this way, a determination may be made as each new computation request is received as to whether an additional resource is required or whether an existing resource would be suitable.

  • Patent number: 7976503
    Abstract: A haemostasis device (200) comprises a low pressure seal (206) and a high pressure seal (208). A tubular bayonet (201) is movable from a retracted configuration to an inserted configuration to move the low pressure seal (206) between a closed configuration and an open configuration. With the low pressure seal (206) in the open configuration, a guidewire (222) may be inserted through the low pressure seal (206), and with the low pressure seal (206) in the closed configuration, the guidewire (222) may be passed through the low pressure seal (206) while maintaining sealing around the guidewire (222). A collet (209) is movable in a radial direction to move the high pressure seal (208) between an open configuration and a sealing configuration. With the high pressure seal (208) in the sealing configuration, the guidewire (222) is locked in position.

  • Patent number: 7753935
    Abstract: An interventional medical closure device is suitable for assisting closure of an opening through a blood vessel wall after completion of an interventional procedure within the internal lumen of the blood vessel. The device comprises a closure element, a grasping element for grasping the closure element, and a delivery element for delivering the closure element into the internal lumen of the blood vessel. The closure element comprises a suture, and an engagement foot at a distal end of the suture. The grasping element is inter-engageable with the closure element to grasp the closure element. The delivery element comprises a main body portion, and a distal nose. The distal nose defines a reception space for carrying the engagement foot of the closure element. The delivery element also comprises an engagement foot which is movable relative to the main body portion between a low-profile delivery configuration and a protruding engagement configuration.
