Publication number: 20250021900Abstract: A grounded operations facilities management system is disclosed that can facilitate communications in grounded operations facilities. Specifically, a method is provided for managing and supervising trucks as they park in truck spots to await freight deposits. Check-in instances reflecting, among other things, the actual truck spot a fleet vehicle is parked in can be retrieved by a client from a server or database in operable communication with the client, and upon instantiation and execution of several processes, the check-in instance can be updated and retrieved/served as needed throughout the system. The system can be managed and controlled via a geofence, such that fleet vehicle operators can only check-in to particular truck spots when located within the geofence.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 30, 2024Publication date: January 16, 2025Applicant: BNSF Railway CompanyInventors: Jimmy H. Pang, Douglas Harvey Gage, Angela Roush

Patent number: 11819466Abstract: A bathroom facility transfer system, including a mobile base, a stationary base, and a removable bridge is disclosed. A user seated in a chair, is positioned adjacent to a bathroom facility with the mobile base. The removable bridge connects the mobile base to the stationary base, which is removably affixed to the bathroom facility, to allow the chair carrying the user to be moved between the mobile base and the stationary base. A chair blocking member on the removable base is movable between a) a chair blocking position, and b) a chair unblocking position. At least one opposed end of the chair blocking member interferes with movement of the chair onto the removable bridge from the mobile base or the stationary base, when the chair blocking member is in the chair blocking position. A method of assisting a user with accessing a bathroom facility is also disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 2021Date of Patent: November 21, 2023Assignee: RAZ DESIGN INC.Inventors: Nelson W. H.

Publication number: 20160136513Abstract: A method for increasing a wager during a blackjack card game allows a player to at least double the wager after receiving at least one Ace card in an initial card distribution; wherein the increased wager is supplied from a dealer if the at least one Ace card substantially matches another card from the initial card distribution; wherein the increased wager is supplied by the player if the at least one Ace card does not match another card from the initial card distribution. The comparative card game includes black jack. The player can double down on the initial wager if one of the two cards in the initial deal is an Ace card. If the color or suit of the Ace card matches the second card in the initial deal, the player can use house money to double down; otherwise the player must use other funds.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 12, 2015Publication date: May 19, 2016Inventor: David H.

Patent number: 8471644Abstract: A gain control circuit, suitable for controlling the amplitude of a voltage-controlled oscillator, includes a duty cycle detector, an analog-to-digital converter, and a function generator. The gain control circuit provides a digitally enabled negative feedback loop. The duty cycle detector generates an estimate of the amplitude. The function generator receives a target amplitude as well as a digital representation of the estimate of the amplitude. The function generator calculates a modified estimate and periodically compares the same to the target value to generate a control word. The control word is arranged to enable current sources in the voltage-controlled oscillator.Type: GrantFiled: January 19, 2011Date of Patent: June 25, 2013Assignee: Avago Technologies General IP (Singapore) Pte.
