  • Patent number: 11840969
    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for re-combustion of exhaust in a cylinder of a multi-cylinder engine in order to increase the temperature of the exhaust for enhancing catalytic conversion within the multi-cylinder engine. In one example, a method may include expelling combusted gases from the cylinder into an intake manifold via an intake valve during an exhaust stroke, in order to rebreathe in the combusted gases from the intake manifold via the intake valve in a subsequent intake stroke.

  • Patent number: 11839047
    Abstract: A design for the electrical infrastructure of a data center enables two different configurations to be utilized, including a distributed, redundant configuration that provides higher reliability and a non-redundant configuration that provides higher capacity. In the distributed, redundant configuration, each server in the data center draws power from at least two different power supply systems. This enables load shifting when a power supply system becomes unavailable, which can have the effect of increasing server reliability. In the non-redundant configuration, each server in the data center draws power from only one power supply system. Load shifting is not utilized in the non-redundant configuration, which eliminates the need to maintain reserve capacity and thereby increases capacity. Advantageously, it is possible to switch between these two configurations without making any internal changes to the data center other than modifying connections between sets of server racks and power buses.

  • Patent number: 11819798
    Abstract: A scrubbing solution for removing contaminants, including particularly hydrogen sulfide, from a fluid. The scrubbing solution includes at least one scrubbing reagent which has a primary or secondary amine and an acid, which may be phosphoric acid. The fluid being scrubbed is passed through the scrubbing solution. The contaminants react with the scrubbing reagent securing them in the scrubbing solution. The fluid being scrubbed and the scrubbing solution are then separated. The scrubbing solution is heated and, if the scrubbing solution is under pressure, the pressure is reduced. The acid facilitates thorough removal of the contaminants, and especially the hydrogen sulfide, from the scrubbing solution. The scrubbing solution is then ready for reuse. Because the scrubbing solution is rendered substantially free of hydrogen sulfides, it can absorb other sulfide contaminants that might not otherwise be absorbed.

  • Publication number: 20230354793
    Abstract: The present invention is a rattle reel for catching fish. The rattle reel has a wall bracket, a reel arm, and a reel. The wall bracket is a U-shaped component that attached the present invention to a wall. The reel arm is a post that connects the reel to the wall bracket. The wall bracket has a plurality of screw holes, a pivot brushing, a clamp, a wall-facing side, and an arm sleeve. The pivot brushing is a hinge that allows the reel arm to rotate. The reel arm has a battery housing, a power switch, and an alarm housing. The reel has a light, a rattle mechanism, a handle, a tension adjuster, and an alarm adjuster. The tension adjuster is an axle that controls the rotating speed of the reel. The wall bracket is fixed at the end of the reel arm and extends away from the wall bracket. The reel is placed at the opposite side of the wall bracket to ensure the structural object the present invention is attached to is not in the way of the reel.

  • Publication number: 20230329483
    Abstract: A method for operating a stand mixer includes receiving, at a controller of the stand mixer, a signal indicative of a parameter of food contents in the stand mixer, and receiving, at the controller of the stand mixer, a signal indicative of an operating parameter of a motor of the stand mixer while the motor operates to mix the food contents. Then, determining, at the controller of the stand mixer, that a mixing operation of the stand mixer is complete based at least in part of one of the signal indicative of the parameter of the food contents, the signal indicative of the operating parameter of the motor, and time. Then adjusting, with the controller of the stand mixer, operation of the motor when the mixing operation is complete.

  • Patent number: 11782693
    Abstract: Examples described herein include systems and methods managing firmware versions of user devices that are enrolled in an enterprise mobility management system. The system can include a management server that sends profiles to enrolled devices, causing those devices to restrict further firmware updates and register with a firmware server. The management server can retrieve available firmware versions and display those in a console. An administrator can select target firmware versions in the console. The management server can the cause the enrolled devices to update to the target firmware versions. This can include sending a call from the management server to the firmware server, causing an automatic update. It can also include sending a command from the management server to an enrolled device, causing the enrolled device to prompt a user prior to requesting a firmware update.

  • Patent number: 11759052
    Abstract: A movable rack assembly may include an input shaft, a driven gear, an adjustable rack, an interference plate, and a contact tab. The input shaft may extend along an input axis. The input shaft may include a worm gear segment disposed along the input axis between a first end and a second end. The driven gear may be enmeshed with the worm gear segment, define a maximum outer circumference, and be rotatable about a driven axis nonparallel to the input axis. The interference plate may be fixed to the driven gear. The interference plate may include a radial arm extending past the maximum outer circumference of the driven gear. The contact tab may extend from the input shaft and be axially offset from the worm gear segment in selective engagement with the radial arm at a predefined travel limit of the driven gear to halt rotation at the input shaft.
