  • Patent number: 12215796
    Abstract: A tire inflation valve having anti-rotation features has an external valve seat, and includes a valve body, a valve stem extending through the length of the valve body, and anti-rotation features disposed interior to the valve body. The valve stem is configured to move relative to the valve body, such that a resilient seating surface disposed at a proximal end of the valve stem is displaced relative to a valve seat formed by an exterior surface of a proximal end of the valve body. The anti-rotation features may include a complementary slot and protrusion, a keyway and complementary protruding ridge, and/or complementary channels and lateral protrusions.

  • Publication number: 20240163915
    Abstract: A device described herein, such as a User Plane Function (“UPF”) of a core network or some other network element, may receive traffic associated with a first User Equipment (“UE”) and a second UE. The traffic may include a first set of packets associated with the first UE and a second set of packets associated with the second UE. The first and second packets may be received in a first sequence. The device may generate a second sequence by re-sequencing the received traffic based on Quality of Service (“QoS”) parameters associated with the traffic, such as 5G QoS Identifier (“5QI”) values. The device may generate a third sequence by re-sequencing the second sequence based on parameters associated with at least the first UE or the second UE. The device may output at least a portion of the received traffic in accordance with the third sequence.

  • Patent number: 11904644
    Abstract: An inflation valve for a tubeless tire may include a valve body defining a cavity having a proximal opening and a distal opening. A valve stem extends through the cavity and includes a plug at a proximal end of the valve stem. The proximal opening of the cavity is defined by a beveled surface, and an outer diameter of the beveled surface is larger than an inner diameter of the valve body. The valve is transitionable between: a) a closed position, where a resilient surface of the plug engages the beveled surface to seal the cavity, and b) an open position, where the resilient surface of the plug is spaced from the beveled surface to unseal the cavity.

  • Publication number: 20230421472
    Abstract: A device may receive network data identifying uplink/downlink packet loss percentage, uplink/downlink jitter, uplink/downlink latency, and uplink/downlink packet throughput associated with a slice of a network, and may set an uplink value for each of the uplink packet loss percentage, the uplink jitter, the uplink latency, and the uplink packet throughput. The device may multiply the uplink values by corresponding uplink weights to calculate an uplink cost, and may set a downlink value for each of the downlink packet loss percentage, the downlink jitter, the downlink latency, and the downlink packet throughput. The device may multiply the downlink values by corresponding downlink weights to calculate a downlink cost, and may calculate a total cost based on the uplink cost and the downlink cost. The device may cause another slice, with the same attributes as the slice, to be instantiated when the total cost satisfies a threshold for a time period.

  • Patent number: 11568845
    Abstract: A method of designing an acoustic liner includes identifying acoustic path lengths that will attenuate a frequency within a frequency range of interest, and selecting a liner configuration with a combination of acoustic paths that addresses the frequency range of interest. The selection may be made after a comparison of the response of different liner configurations.

  • Patent number: 11195854
    Abstract: Some embodiments include an integrated structure having a first opening extending through a stack of alternating insulative levels and conductive levels. A nitride structure is within the first opening and narrows the first opening to form a second opening. Detectable oxide is between the nitride structure and one or more of the conductive levels. Some embodiments include an integrated structure having a conductive material, a select device gate material over the conductive material, and vertically-stacked conductive levels over the select device gate material. A first opening extends through the vertically-stacked levels to the conductive material and has opposing sidewalls along a cross-section. Nitride liners are along the sidewalls of the first opening. Detectable oxide is between at least one of the nitride liners and one or more of the vertically-stacked conductive levels. Some embodiments include methods for forming integrated structures.
