  • Publication number: 20240131271
    Abstract: A drive train for a wind-up injection device is described. The drive train includes a torsional energy storage adapted to be loaded or unloaded by a rotatable element, a rotatable user handle, a rotationally driveable expelling mechanism adapted to expel the liquid drug, and a clutch element coupled with the torsional energy storage via the rotatable element and including a ratchet for maintaining the rotatable element at one of a number of discrete angular positions against the torque of the torsional energy storage. The clutch element is adapted to transmit the torque from the user handle to the torsional energy storage, or alternatively from the torsional energy storage to the expelling mechanism. The ratchet is switchable from one position to an adjacent position by a torque transmitted from the user handle to the torsional energy storage. The drive train is adapted to dampen torque peaks visco-elastically and/or visco-frictionally.

  • Patent number: 11966230
    Abstract: Techniques for determining a prediction probability associated with a disengagement event are discussed herein. A first prediction probability can include a probability that a safety driver associated with a vehicle (such as an autonomous vehicle) may assume control over the vehicle. A second prediction probability can include a probability that an object in an environment is associated the disengagement event. Sensor data can be captured and represented as a top-down representation of the environment. The top-down representation can be input to a machine learned model trained to output prediction probabilities associated with a disengagement event. The vehicle can be controlled based the prediction probability and/or the interacting object probability.

  • Publication number: 20240124125
    Abstract: A propeller blade angle control circuit for a turboprop engine includes a propeller control unit controlling a supply of oil to modify an angle of propeller blades, a pump located upstream of the propeller control unit and providing the supply of oil from an engine oil return system to the propeller control unit, and a flow regulator between the pump and the propeller control unit, the flow regulator modulating a supply of oil to the propeller control unit. A bypass, downstream of the pump in the propeller blade angle control circuit, has an inlet fluidly coupled to the pump. The bypass is operable between a closed position and an open position in which a portion of the oil supplied to the propeller control unit is diverted away from the propeller blade angle control circuit. The open position is engaged when an oil pressure reaches a predetermined threshold.

  • Publication number: 20240128945
    Abstract: A flexible multi-path RF adaptive tuning network switch architecture that counteracts impedance mismatch conditions arising from various combinations of coupled RF band filters, particularly in a Carrier Aggregation-based (CA) radio system. In one version, a digitally-controlled tunable matching network is coupled to a multi-path RF switch in order to provide adaptive impedance matching for various combinations of RF band filters. Optionally, some or all RF band filters include an associated digitally-controlled filter pre-match network to further improve impedance matching. In a second version, some or all RF band filters coupled to a multi-path RF switch include a digitally-controlled phase matching network to provide necessary per-band impedance matching. Optionally, a digitally-controlled tunable matching network may be included on the common port of the multi-path RF switch to provide additional impedance matching capability.

  • Patent number: 11960470
    Abstract: A digital security system can store data associated with entities in resolver trees. If the digital security system determines that two resolver trees are likely representing the same entity, the digital security system can use a merge operation to merge the resolver trees into a single resolver tree that represents the entity. The single resolver tree can include a merge node indicating a merge identifier of the merge operation. Nodes containing information merged into the resolver tree from another resolver tree during the merge operation can be tagged with the corresponding merge identifier. Accordingly, if the merge operation is to be undone, for instance if subsequent information indicates that the entries are likely separate entities, the resolver tree can be unmerged and the nodes tagged with the merge identifier can be restored to a separate resolver tree.
