Abstract: A standard component of a vehicle equippable with a plurality of wheels or a plurality of track systems for engaging the ground, such as an axle housing or a frame of the vehicle, comprises a connector dedicated to connecting a given one of the track systems to the vehicle and provided during original manufacturing of the standard component of the vehicle. This may facilitate installation of the track systems on the vehicle.

Abstract: A track system for traction of a vehicle (e.g., a compact track loader or other construction vehicle) which may be designed to improve ride quality (e.g., reduce vibrations) for an operator and/or enhance other aspects of its performance or that of the vehicle. For example, a track of the track system may be frictionally driven and without transversal rigid parts (e.g., metallic cores). Also, power generation and transmission functions may be implemented by the track system. For instance, a motor and a transmission may be at least mostly contained within the track system.

Abstract: A lazy graph construction with compression includes receiving a query related to a network; one of generating a site graph for the network and accessing the site graph already in memory; performing a search on the site graph based on the query; accessing data in a database and generating, in the memory, a plurality of sub-graphs using the data, for the query; and providing a solution to the query based on the search and a search of the plurality of sub-graphs. The site graph can be at a site level and includes network elements and associated connections in the network, and the plurality of sub-graphs can be at an intra-site level including any of component-to-component connections and intra-component connections.

Abstract: A system for assisting the design of manufactured components requiring post-processing and comprising an input module receiving original design data relative to engineering requirements of a component and manufacturing and post-processing data relative to the component. The system also comprising a compensation determination module receiving the original design data and the manufacturing and post-processing data from the input module, predicting the geometrical deviations created by the at least one post-processing procedure and generating dimension compensation data defining compensations for each one of the features of the component using at least one machine learning model generated by a machine learning algorithm trained using a training dataset.

Abstract: The invention provides a method for the temporal monitoring and visualization of the health of a direct interconnect network wherein discovered and configured nodes provide node telemetry data from each node or every port on each node at time interval, and the node telemetry data is stored in a temporal datastore at each time interval with a timestamp for a retention period, such that the temporal datastore contains a temporal history of node telemetry data from each node or every port on each node during the retention period. The node telemetry data is analyzed, alarms are raised as necessary, a health status commensurate with the severity of the node telemetry data is assigned and stored for each node or every port on each node, and a health score is calculated for such nodes and ports based on the assigned health status for use by a user interface.

Abstract: It is a main purpose of this invention to provide for a mode changing mechanism for use with a pole. A “J” shaped locking/un-locking mechanism is provided on an outer ring of the invention, which enables a user to select between a fixed and a rotating mode for the pole. A switch positioned in the “J” shaped groove enables the alternation between the fixed configuration and the rotating configuration of the pole. The rotating configuration enables the pole to rotate freely and the fixed configuration does not allow the pole to rotate. The pole is mechanically fastened to an inner ring. The inner ring is configured to rotate around an axis member fastened to a base plate of the mechanism. An outer ring is concentrically positioned outside the inner ring, the outer ring having the “J” shaped groove.

Abstract: An optical control system is described which is capable of maintaining and optimizing a fiber-optic transport system within it's domain of control while interacting with other optical systems which are controlled independently. This allows the optical system to be incorporated as a building block into a larger optical network in a relatively arbitrary fashion. This provides an underlying control system for a non-linear system like optics network that is flexible and extensible.
