The display is configured to render a plurality of display screens, including a home screen and an alert screen. The home screen is divided into a plurality of simultaneously displayed panels, with a first panel displays a rate of change of continuously monitored analyte levels in interstitial fluid, a second panel simultaneously displays a current analyte level and an analyte trend indicator, and a third panel displays status information of a plurality of components of the device. When an alarm condition is detected, the display renders the alert screen in place of the home screen, the alert screen displaying information corresponding to the detected alarm condition. Furthermore, the actuators are configured to affect further output of the analyte monitoring device corresponding to the detected condition.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 5, 2018Publication date: March 7, 2019Applicant: Abbott Diabetes Care Inc.Inventors: Wesley Scott Harper, Annie C.

Patent number: 10139095Abstract: Embodiments of a lamp that utilizes a reflector and a light source with light-emitting diode (LED) devices to generate an optical intensity distribution substantially similar to that of a conventional incandescent light bulb. These embodiments utilize an operation configuration with parameters that define relationships between components of the lamp to generate the optical intensity distribution. These parameters can, in one example, set out the position of the reflector relative to the light source as well as the ratio between dimensions of the reflector and the light source. In one embodiment, the reflector is in position relative to the light source to form a blocking area proximate the light source that defines a part of the lamp that does not diffuse light.Type: GrantFiled: November 10, 2014Date of Patent: November 27, 2018Assignee: GE Lighting Solutions, LLCInventors: Benjamin Lee Yoder, William Stewart Johnson, Roderick Fitzgerald Rebman, Glenn Howard Kuenzler, Mark J.

Patent number: 10081138Abstract: A method for producing a luminaire housing on an additive manufacturing system includes selecting a luminaire housing base shape from which a data file of a first convex polyhedral model is built, rescaling the first convex polyhedral model into a larger convex polyhedral model, filling the larger convex polyhedral model with multiple versions of the first convex polyhedral model, separating larger convex polyhedral shape model into structural unit shape, and providing the data file containing the structural unit shapes to the additive manufacturing system. In some implementations an interior volume of the larger convex polyhedral shape model can be cleared of portions of first convex polyhedral model. The method includes the additive manufacturing system producing one or more structural units based on the structural unit shapes described in the electronic data file. A non-transitory computer readable medium, and a luminaire housing including a light source are described.Type: GrantFiled: April 29, 2016Date of Patent: September 25, 2018Assignee: GE Lighting Solutions, LLCInventors: Péter Atilla Kardos, Veronika Varga, Glenn Howard Kuenzler

Publication number: 20180189702Abstract: A job plan may be developed far in advance of actual execution of any one or more specified well servicing operations. To account for all the factors, parameters or conditions that occur at an actual well site a revised job plan may be generated that accounts for the actual site equipment available, environmental factors, one or more costs, available power source, optimal operation of equipment and any other factors. Any one or more of the factors may be weighted according to a particular physical location or other factors of the job plan. Correlating the collected, known, and actual information about equipment and a physical location allows for the generation of an optimized revised job plan that provides better utilization of equipment, including power sources, and control of costs.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 29, 2016Publication date: July 5, 2018Inventors: Timothy Holiman Hunter, Glenn Howard Weightman, Carlos Alfredo Vallejo, Alexander Simon Chretien, John Carl Reid
