  • Patent number: 12280910
    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to bottles that are configured to undergo a controlled collapse in response to pressure being placed on the front and rear walls manually by a user, vacuum forces acting inside the bottle during a tube feeding process, or both. The bottles include a rigid hanging element that is molded into an access channel provided on the base of the bottle, such that the top and sides of the hanging element are fixedly connected with a surface of the container. Due to the presence of the hanging element, the bottle includes hinge lines focus the collapse in the central area of the bottle between the hanging element and the shoulder of the bottle. Accordingly, the present bottles provide both a rigid hanging element and walls that collapse in a controlled manner.

  • Patent number: 12054304
    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a bottle made of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and having a circular cross-section. The bottle has a sidewall spanning between a neck finish and a base. The sidewall includes a shoulder portion and a panel portion, with the lower end of the shoulder portion and the upper end of the panel portion each sloping inward to create a waist. One or more circumferential ribs are positioned within the waist, and preferably at the trough of the waist. The one or more circumferential ribs are designed and configured to increase the hoop strength of the bottle, the vacuum stability of the bottle, or both.

  • Patent number: 11533195
    Abstract: A building management system includes a communications bus, subordinate devices connected to the communications bus, and a controller connected to the communications bus. The controller includes an active node table including a plurality of nodes, each node representing one of the subordinate devices connected to the communications bus. The controller is configured to monitor the active node table for a newly connected subordinate device, use a set of rules to determine whether the newly connected subordinate device is supported by the controller for performing an identified function in combination with the controller, and, in response to a determination that the newly connected subordinate device is supported, extend the identified function of the controller to the newly connected subordinate device. Extending the identified function includes enabling the newly connected subordinate device to perform the identified function.

  • Patent number: 10944737
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to tokenized account information with integrated authentication. In some embodiments, a shared secret key is used for tokenization and authentication. In some embodiments, a payment device stores an encrypted version of the secret key and decrypts the secret key based on a user-provided password. In some embodiments, the payment device uses the secret key and a moving factor to generate a limited-use password. In some embodiments, the payment device uses the limited-use password to modify a first identifier of an account of the user. In some embodiments, the authentication system retrieves a stored version of the secret key and a copy of the account number using a second identifier. In some embodiments, the authentication system generates the limited-use password based on the stored secret key and a moving factor, de-tokenizes the modified first identifier, and compares the result with the retrieved copy of the account number.
