Patent number: 9535594Abstract: An electronic device provides, to a display, data to present a user interface with a plurality of user interface objects, and a current focus is on a first user interface object. The device receives an input corresponding to movement of a contact across a touch-sensitive surface. The movement includes first and second components each corresponding to first and second axes on the display. The device moves the current focus, along the first and second axes by amounts based on magnitudes of the first and second components. The amount of movement of the current focus along a non-dominant axis is reduced relative to the amount of movement of the current focus along a dominant axis by a scaling factor that is based on a rate of movement of the contact.Type: GrantFiled: September 27, 2015Date of Patent: January 3, 2017Assignee: APPLE INC.Inventors: Marcos Alonso Ruiz, Nicole M. Wells, Justin T. Voss, Blake R. Seely, Matthew D. Ricketson, Henrique D. Penha, Grace H. Hwang, Graham R. Clarke, Jeffrey L. Robbin, William M. Bachman, Benjamin W. Keighran, Jennifer L.

Publication number: 20160370982Abstract: An electronic device with one or more processors and memory is in communication with a display. The device, while in a first playback navigation mode, provides, to the display, video information for display; and receives an input that corresponds to a request by a user to switch to a second playback navigation mode. The video information includes information that corresponds to one or more frames of a video, a scrubber bar that represents a timeline of the video, a first playhead that indicates a current play position in the scrubber bar, and playback position markers, distinct from the first playhead, that indicate predetermined playback positions in the video. The device, in response to receiving the input, transitions from the first playback navigation mode to the second playback navigation mode; and, while in the second playback navigation mode, ceases to provide information that corresponds to the playback position markers.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 30, 2015Publication date: December 22, 2016Inventors: Henrique D. Penha, Jonathan Ive, Imran A. Chaudhri, Grace H. Hwang, Graham R. Clarke, Gary I. Butcher, Marcos Alonso Ruiz, Jeffrey L. Robbin, William M. Bachman, Benjamin W. Keighran, Jennifer L.C.

Patent number: 9501484Abstract: Recognizing cloud content techniques are described herein. A designated storage location for cloud content corresponding to a service is registered locally at a device. Files stored in association with the registered storage location may be recognized as cloud content of the corresponding service. The recognized cloud content may be handled in various ways to customize the user experience and tailor interaction with cloud content. For example, icons or other visual identifiers may be used within device, operating system and/or application user interfaces to represent an association of files with a particular service based on recognition of the files as cloud content. Additionally, a registered storage location for a device may be employed to obtain relative paths to files that may be used to roam file activity lists between different devices.Type: GrantFiled: June 19, 2015Date of Patent: November 22, 2016Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Kyle M. von Haden, Jennifer H.

Patent number: 9259722Abstract: In a process for producing cumene, benzene and a C3 alkylating agent comprising isopropanol are supplied to an alkylation zone comprising a molecular sieve alkylation catalyst under alkylation conditions such that the isopropanol reacts with the benzene to produce a reaction product comprising cumene. Subsequently, the supply of benzene and C3 alkylating agent to the alkylation zone is ceased and a gaseous stripping agent is supplied to the molecular sieve alkylation catalyst under conditions effective to remove nitrogenous impurities deposited on the catalyst during the preceding alkylation reaction. The supply of benzene and C3 alkylating agent to the alkylation zone is then reinitiated.Type: GrantFiled: July 23, 2013Date of Patent: February 16, 2016Assignee: BADGER LICENSING LLCInventors: Ronald Birkhoff, Shyh-Yuan H.

Patent number: 9212107Abstract: In a process for producing cumene, isopropanol containing nitrogenous impurities is reacted with benzene in an alkylation reactor to produce an effluent stream comprising cumene, unreacted benzene and water. Water is removed from the effluent stream and an aliquot of the resultant dried effluent stream is treated to remove nitrogenous impurities and produce a purified recycle stream. At least part of the purified recycle stream is then recycled to the alkylation reactor. In an alternative embodiment, the isopropanol is combined with fresh and/or recycled benzene and the combined stream is treated to remove nitrogenous impurities before being fed to the alkylation reactor.Type: GrantFiled: July 2, 2013Date of Patent: December 15, 2015Assignee: BADGER LICENSING LLCInventors: Ronald Birkhoff, Shyh-Yuan H.

Patent number: 9199891Abstract: A process is disclosed for alkylating benzene contained in a benzene-containing refinery gasoline stream also comprising at least 0.1 wt % of at least one C6 to C8 olefin. In the process, the refinery gasoline stream is contacted under alkylation conditions with an alkylating agent selected from one or more C2 to C5 olefins in at least a first alkylation reaction zone and a second alkylation reaction zone connected in series to produce an alkylated effluent, which has reduced benzene content as compared with said refinery gasoline stream. All of the refinery gasoline stream is introduced into the first alkylation reaction stage, whereas an aliquot of the alkylated effluent is recycled and introduced to the second, but not the first, alkylation reaction zone.Type: GrantFiled: November 30, 2011Date of Patent: December 1, 2015Assignee: BADGER LICENSING LLCInventors: Shyh-Yuan H.

Publication number: 20150183695Abstract: A process is described for producing cumene comprising contacting benzene and a C3 alkylating agent under alkylation conditions with an alkylation catalyst in an alkylation zone to produce an alkylation effluent comprising cumene and alkylaromatic compounds heavier than cumene. Cumene is recovered from the alkylation effluent to leave a byproduct stream containing the alkylaromatic compounds heavier than cumene, which is separated into a polyisopropylbenzene-containing stream, an aromatic overhead stream, and a bottoms product.
