  • Patent number: 10494817
    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure provide retractable canopies, kits of parts for assembling retractable canopies, and methods for assembling and operating retractable canopies. The retractable canopies provide tracks extending in a longitudinal direction and transversely spaced apart. A support extends in a transverse direction between the tracks and is moveably coupled to the tracks via mounts to the tracks. The mounts include engagement members, such as wheels, to engage with the tracks. The engagement members may be biased transversely away from the support (e.g. toward the track), thereby permitting the engagement members to adjust their transverse positions relative to the support as the support moves along the track.

  • Publication number: 20190114707
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for introducing and removing blockchain based cryptocurrency tokens based on usage and demand for the cryptocurrency. An embodiment operates by transmitting, to a peer-to-peer network of computing devices configured to store a blockchain of processes, instructions for execution by one or more devices of the peer-to-peer network. The instructions comprise determining a rate of change associated with an exchange price of a cryptocurrency token. The instructions further include receiving an indication that a first amount of cryptocurrency tokens has been transferred to a recipient address of a plurality of addresses and generating a second amount of cryptocurrency tokens based on the first amount of cryptocurrency tokens that has been transferred and on the determined rate of change of the exchange price associated with the cryptocurrency token. The second amount of cryptocurrency tokens is allocated to the recipient address.

  • Patent number: 8511402
    Abstract: In a dual-gradient drilling apparatus, a subsea solids processing unit includes a housing, a solids processing mechanism disposed in the housing between a drilling mud inlet and a drilling mud outlet, and a flushing mechanism configured to flush the solids processing mechanism with a flushing fluid. A subsea solids processing unit may be controlled by rotating the solids processing mechanism in a forward direction and increasing a drive torque when a measured speed of the solids processing mechanism is below a desired rotation speed. The desired rotation speed may be decreased when a measured torque exceeds a selected maximum and a rotation direction of the solids processing mechanism may be reversed when the measured speed falls below a selected minimum.
