Publication number: 20250156130Abstract: A system is disclosed. The system includes one or more processors to receive a print job file including page content data, traverse each of a plurality of subset ranges of the page content data to generate page element metadata based on the page content data, wherein the page element metadata comprises identified page elements and the logical pages that correspond to the identified page elements, aggregate the page element metadata to generate print job structure metadata and store the print job structure metadata, wherein the print job structure metadata is stored separately from the print job file.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 13, 2023Publication date: May 15, 2025Applicant: Ricoh Company, Ltd.Inventors: Justin Coulter, David Ward

Publication number: 20250128345Abstract: In some examples, a robotic welding system includes an improved touch sensing process that identifies an intermediate position to which to move a welding-type tool and/or electrode between certain touches of the touch sensing process. Use of an intermediate position between certain touches may reduce the potential for accidental and/or unintentional contact with the part, which may be detrimental to a robotic welding process. The improved touch sense process may additionally automatically move the welding-type tool and/or welding electrode to the intermediate position between certain touches. Automatic movement to the intermediate position (e.g., rather than manual operator induced movement) may save the operator time and/or guard against human error and/or forgetfulness.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 23, 2024Publication date: April 24, 2025Inventors: Jeremy Daniel Overesch, JR., David Ward Savage

Publication number: 20250003206Abstract: A modular decking system that includes prefabricated modular decking panels available in a variety of lengths utilized to build a separate deck to an individual's desired size and layout. The prefabricated modular decking panels are made of pressure-treated 2?×6? lumber studs, deck-boards, joist hangers, and deck screws that are inserted into a frame made of previously installed posts and headboards. The modular decking system allows for quick installation and set-up. The modular decking panels are easily deconstructed and transported for use in multiple locations. In an alternate embodiment, an additional brace is used to support a 4?×4? post to adapt the modular decking panels for use as a temporary on-location flatform.

Patent number: 11867585Abstract: A system for monitoring the operation of vibrating equipment, such as a vibrating screen unit or vibrating feeder. The vibrating equipment includes a series of mounting springs that support the body on a stationary support structure. The system includes a plurality of sensors that are positioned to detect vibrating forces on one or more of the mounting springs. Each of the sensors generates a monitoring signal that is received by a control unit. The monitoring signals are a measure of the resonance frequency of the mounting springs. The control unit is operable to compare the monitoring signals from the sensors to expected, normal values such that the control unit is able to determine whether the mounting springs are functioning in a normal manner or whether a problem exists. The control unit is further able to monitor the operation of the vibrating equipment through the analysis of the monitoring signals.Type: GrantFiled: June 2, 2022Date of Patent: January 9, 2024Assignee: Metso Outotec USA Inc.Inventors: David Ward, Jan Wirth

Publication number: 20230193719Abstract: A pressure isolation assembly can include multiple pressure isolation modules arranged in series and isolating a pressure actuated downhole tool from a downhole fluid pressure. Each of the modules may be configured to open in response to a single pressure cycle comprising an increase in the downhole fluid pressure followed by a decrease in the downhole fluid pressure. A method can include determining a number of fluid pressure cycles to apply to enable actuation of a downhole tool; installing a number of pressure isolation modules in a pressure isolation assembly, the number corresponding to the number of pressure cycles; deploying the downhole tool and the pressure isolation assembly while the pressure isolation assembly isolates a fluid passage of the downhole tool from downhole fluid pressure; and applying the number of pressure cycles, thereby permitting communication of at least a fraction of the downhole fluid pressure to the fluid passage.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 21, 2021Publication date: June 22, 2023Inventors: Nauman H.

Patent number: 11614972Abstract: Techniques are described for distributing network device tasks across virtual machines executing in a computing cloud. A network device includes a network interface to send and receive messages, a routing unit comprising one or more processors configured to execute a version of a network operating system, and a virtual machine agent. The virtual machine agent is configured to identify a virtual machine executing at a computing cloud communicatively coupled to the network device, wherein the identified virtual machine executes an instance of the version of the network operating system, to send, using the at least one network interface and to the virtual machine, a request to perform a task, and to receive, using the at least one network interface and from the virtual machine, a task response that includes a result of performing the task. The routing unit is configured to update the network device based on the result.Type: GrantFiled: July 20, 2018Date of Patent: March 28, 2023Assignee: Juniper Networks, Inc.Inventors: Joel Obstfeld, David Ward, Colby Barth, Mu Lin

Patent number: 11447767Abstract: Disrupting a biological cell includes freezing, boiling or perhaps alternately freezing and boiling material containing the biological cell using a thermoelectric cell with a working face, and a base face whereof is contiguous with a heat source/sink at a substantially constant temperature. Apparatus for the disruption process includes a peltier cell, a base face, which is flexibly attached to a heat source/sink held at a constant temperature, and a working face contiguous with a reaction vessel or holder thereof. Reversal of the voltage in the peltier cell enables the working face alternately to reach below freezing and above boiling temperatures, and/or with use of a resistive wire on the vessel or holder for heating, with the TEC used purely for cooling. The materials of the base face tend to inhibit disintegration of the peltier cell brought about by expansion and contraction by heat.Type: GrantFiled: June 15, 2011Date of Patent: September 20, 2022Assignee: BG RESEARCH LTDInventors: Nelson Nazareth, David Ward, David Edge

Patent number: 11377803Abstract: A method of manufacturing an orthotropic deck panel includes cambering a deck plate of the orthotropic deck panel to a first degree of camber in a longitudinal direction, cambering the deck plate to a second degree of camber in a transverse direction, and attaching a rib member of the orthotropic deck panel to the deck plate by welding the rib member to the deck plate. The first degree of camber corresponds to a shape of a surface of which the orthotropic deck panel is a part, and the second degree of camber is configured such that the deck plate is flatter in the transverse direction after the rib member is welded to the deck plate than when the deck plate is being cambered in the transverse direction.Type: GrantFiled: March 11, 2020Date of Patent: July 5, 2022Assignee: Vigor Industrial LLCInventors: Terrance J.
