  • Patent number: 11797691
    Abstract: A Secure Access Gateway and Registry is provided for secure access to security related service information, to operate a security feature of a motor vehicle, by a validated Individual. The system is implemented with a general purpose computer, internet, mobile device, and secure data release Registry software application. An Individual is employed as a vehicle service professional. The Individual inputs a Registry Application data. The Registry uses the Registry Application data to generate a background search result data. The Registry uses the search result data to determine eligibility, and assign a Registered Vehicle Service Professional Identification code. The Individual uses the Registered Vehicle Service Professional Identification code to input a Form D1 authorization data, and to access an Automaker website. The Registry uses the D1 authorization data to determine a legal possessory interest in a motor vehicle, to be serviced.

  • Patent number: 9879600
    Abstract: Systems for cooling turbine components via fluid filled conduits are disclosed. Various embodiments include a system having: a set of fan systems for cooling a set of conduits, the set of conduits fluidly connected with a turbine component; a temperature sensor operably connected to the turbine component, the temperature sensor for obtaining a temperature indicator of the turbine component; and a control system operably connected to the set of fan systems and the temperature sensor, the control system for modifying a speed of at least one fan system in the set of fan systems across a range of speeds in response to determining the temperature indicator deviates from a predetermined range of temperature values.

  • Publication number: 20140238643
    Abstract: A system includes a cooling system and a cleaning system. The cooling system has a first pump, a heat exchanger, a liquid flow path through the first pump and the heat exchanger, a first cooling fan, and an airflow path through the first cooling fan and along an exterior surface of the heat exchanger. The cleaning system has at least one fluid outlet that may direct a fluid jet against the exterior surface of the heat exchanger to clean the exterior surface during operation of the cooling system.
