Patent number: 11842620Abstract: A system including at least one detector and a central station in two-way communication with the detector is provided. The detector can include an ambient condition sensing element, a motion sensor, control circuitry, and two-way communications hardware. The control circuitry can determine an alarm event based on a first signal received from the ambient condition sensing element and can transmit an alarm signal to the communications hardware during the alarm event. The control circuitry can also determine a man-down event based on a second signal received from the motion sensor and transmit a man-down alarm signal to the communications hardware during the man-down event. The two-way communications hardware can transmit at least one of the gas alarm signal and the man-down alarm signal to a remote location, and the two-way communications hardware can receive a status inquiry from the remote location.Type: GrantFiled: February 2, 2022Date of Patent: December 12, 2023Assignee: Honeywell International Inc.Inventors: Stephen David Worthington, Jerry Wayne Evans, Patrick Gerard Hogan

Publication number: 20060034995Abstract: A shredded cheese product blend and a method of making such a shredded cheese product blend is disclosed in which the blend is a mixture of one or more types of shredded cheese and one or more kinds of vegetable and/or fruit particles, and optionally also includes one or more spices. One or more shredded cheeses are blended with one or more vegetable and/or fruit particles having reduced moisture content in selected relative amounts, with the shredded cheese product blend then being packaged in a conventional manner. A variety of different cheeses can be shredded, or a blend of two or more cheeses can be shredded and mixed together. A number of different vegetables and/or fruits can be used, and combinations of two or more vegetables and/or fruits can be particularized and mixed together.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 16, 2004Publication date: February 16, 2006Inventors: Kim DeSmidt, Gerard Hogan, Brian Kaufman
