Patent number: 12168569Abstract: A refuse vehicle has a Commercial and a Residential Mode whereby when in Commercial Mode, stops or fins, utilized in Residential Mode to assist in securing a residential container laterally at the front of the vehicle, are adjustable to prevent contact or interference with the cab protector or other portions of the vehicle when in Commercial Mode. The fins may be located and/or rotated, such as at least 30 degrees (from position to position) or above a horizontal or otherwise intermediate the residential and commercial configurations. The fins may preferably be located above a bottom of the crossbar when moving through the dumping cycle so as not to contact the cab protector in Commercial Mode. Preferably, the fins may also be housed on the residential refuse container rather than along the crossbar.Type: GrantFiled: September 1, 2023Date of Patent: December 17, 2024Assignee: The Heil Co.Inventors: Eric Evans, Tracy Mason, Bryan Stewart

Publication number: 20240375910Abstract: A reel based closure device for tensioning a tension member is described herein. The reel based closure device includes a housing that defines a vertical axis, a plurality of teeth operably coupled with the housing, a spool rotatably positioned within the housing, and an engagement member comprising one or more teeth that engage with the plurality of teeth during a rotation of the spool. A dial or knob is operably coupled with the spool so that a rotation of the dial or knob effects the rotation of the spool to wind the tension member about the spool. A length of each tooth that is operably coupled with the housing is substantially longer than a length of each tooth of the engagement member.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 12, 2024Publication date: November 14, 2024Applicant: BOA Technology, Inc.Inventors: Thomas Pollack, Randon Kruse, Eric Irwin, Daniel Hipwood, Mark Clementi, Brendan Hoskens, Erik Suomi, Charles Clayton Corbett, Geoff Gloceri, Ryan Wesson, Eric Whewell, Jeffrey Gay, Taylor James DiTallo, Cody Henderson, Erik Anders Swanson, Tyler Ziebelman, John Coe, Stephen Evans

Publication number: 20240291073Abstract: Electrochemical reactors with electrodes that have variable porosity across the electrode and associated methods are described. The electrodes are designed and micro-architected to have variable porosity and 3D flow. One example method of selecting porosities in an electrochemical reactor includes dividing an electrode of the electrochemical reactor into a plurality of unit cells and determining a plurality of cell-specific porosities for the plurality of unit cells as a function of a location for each of the plurality of unit cells. The cell-specific porosities are configured based on a rod diameter of each unit cell's internal structure relative to each unit cell's cell length, and each location in the electrode provides a selected fluid flow property and a selected conductive property to meet one or more performance metrics.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 1, 2024Publication date: August 29, 2024Inventors: Victor Alfred Beck, Sarah Baker, Jonathan Tesner Davis, Eric Duoss, Daniel Tortorelli, Seth Evan Watts, Marcus A.

Publication number: 20240278692Abstract: A system for controlling the position of a vehicle seat is disclosed. The system includes in network communication, an input device, a detection system, at least one controller, and at least one controllable device. The detection system measures a current value of at least one of the recline, fore-aft, or swivel position of the seat. The input device communicates to the controllers a desired value for at least one of these seat positions. The controller compares the measured value to a limiting value and the desired value and calculates a movement factor value. The movement factor value determines the communication between the controller and the controllable device. If the movement factor value falls into a range where the seat can be moved to the desired value, the controller signals the at least one controllable device to control the adjustment of at least one of the recline position, the fore-aft position, or the swivel position to the desired value.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 8, 2021Publication date: August 22, 2024Inventors: Tylor Svitak, Eric Evans, Jeffrey Linnberg
