  • Patent number: 11788581
    Abstract: A bearing unit is provided with a strain element for torque detection. The strain element is provided with a first annular part attached to a rotation-side member, a second annular part attached to a load-side member, and a plurality of ribs serving as strained parts linking the first annular part and the second annular part together. One of an inner race and an outer race is integrally formed on the first annular part of the strain element. Deformation, which occurs in the ribs of the strain element due to torque exerted on the rotation-side member from the load-side member, is detected by a strain gauge, etc., and converted to torque. The strain element for torque detection can be incorporated into a motor, a reducer, or another rotary propulsion unit without the need for a dedicated installation space and without the need for fastening fittings, etc.

  • Patent number: 11184156
    Abstract: In a preferred embodiment, a system for securely delivering source data to a destination system over a network includes a data manager system operatively connected to the network, where the data manager system includes circuitry configured to receive a public key from the destination system, generate a random session key, encrypt the session key with the public key using a public key cryptosystem, divide the source data into a number of chunks, compress each of the chunks, merge all of the compressed chunks into an assembled file, encrypt the assembled file with the session key using a symmetric-key cryptosystem, divide the encrypted assembled file into a number of parts, send each of the parts to the destination system over the network, and send the encrypted session key to the destination system over the network.

  • Publication number: 20210035226
    Abstract: In an illustrative embodiment, an automated system performs a multi-level risk exposure analysis for geographic locations, such as property locations. The system may include computing systems and devices for calculating, for locations in a portfolio, risk exposure amounts for an area that includes an insured location and including an analysis radius and identifying regions of interest having risk exposure amounts that exceed predetermined amounts due to combined exposure from a portion of the insured locations. The system may generate a grid of intermediate points that is applied to each region of interest. The system may calculate amounts of risk exposure for each of the intermediate points and retain any intermediate points with risk exposure amounts that exceed the amounts for the insured locations. The system may output a risk exposure analysis based on the risk exposure amounts for the insured locations and intermediate points of interest.

  • Patent number: 10482535
    Abstract: Techniques for dynamically and remotely generating a business intelligence cube from an impact-on-demand or mapping system include an intelligence cube module configured to receive a user indication of a client portfolio stored at a remote mapping system. The module may receive user selections of cube dimensions and boundaries of the client portfolio for inclusion in a draft business intelligence cube definition. The module may validate the selected dimensions and boundaries, determine the presence of any anomalies, and in some cases, automatically modifying the draft to resolve the anomalies. A validated, approved cube definition may be delivered to the mapping system for storage. The mapping system may, in real-time and based on a user request, populate the cube definition with a selected dataset and return the populated business intelligence cube for analysis and utilization in reports and other business intelligence tools.

  • Patent number: 9489397
    Abstract: Techniques for dynamic delivery of client-indicated source data to an impact-on-demand or mapping system include a dynamic data delivery module configured to automatically transform the source data into a format that is compatible with the mapping system, validate at least a portion of the source data, and cause the transformed, validated source data to be delivered to the mapping system for storage in a client portfolio. The mapping system may, in real-time, map the client portfolio with impact events to determine risk exposure. The transformation may be based on one or more rules corresponding to the mapping system, and multiple original source data formats may be automatically transformed into the target format. The dynamic data delivery module may automatically correct or adjust source data contents or format to mitigate any anomalies or errors discovered during the transformation and/or validation processes.

  • Publication number: 20070130501
    Abstract: Apparatus and methods implementing a technique for creating an electronic artwork with a hot area. For a selected layer of the artwork, a non-transparent region is identified and an action is assigned to an area corresponding to the non-transparent region, the action defining a function that will be activated when the area is selected. The technique is advantageous in computer application programs that composite images from layers and for producing HTML (HyperText Markup Language) output that refers to a corresponding composited image, where the action is a URL and the area is defined by an image map.

  • Publication number: 20070106781
    Abstract: A logistics node receives a purchase order from a customer. The logistics node selects an appropriate carrier to transport products specified in the purchase order and conveys shipping instructions to the selected carrier. The logistics node also coordinates the shipment by interacting with a source node (associated with a supplier of the products) and a destination node (associated with the recipient of the products). According to one exemplary feature, the logistics node provides an interface that permits users involved in the distribution chain to track the status of the shipments without having to enter tracking codes that are unique to individual carriers. According to another exemplary feature, the interface allows a user to access multiple “levels” of information regarding a shipment, including information pertaining to an individual product within a shipment containing multiple products.
