  • Publication number: 20250065758
    Abstract: An example operation includes one or more of assigning a time slot to a vehicle for a charging operation at a charging station, where the time slot includes a starting point in time and an end point in time, transmitting a notification to the vehicle which includes an identifier of the charging station and the starting point in time, iteratively capturing sensor data at the charging station, determining whether the charging operation started on time based on the starting point in time and the sensor data, and in response to a determination that the charging operation started on time, delivering content to the vehicle while the charging operation is being performed.

  • Publication number: 20250071510
    Abstract: An example operation includes one or more of establishing global positioning system (GPS) coordinates of a virtual geographic boundary around a charging station through a software application, receiving a message from a vehicle which comprises a state of charge (SOC) of the vehicle and an identifier of the vehicle, verifying the vehicle based on the message, detecting that the vehicle has entered the virtual geographic boundary around the charging station based on GPS coordinates of the vehicle, and delivering content to a graphical user interface (GUI) of the software application in response to detection that the vehicle has entered the virtual geographic boundary.

  • Patent number: 6523698
    Abstract: A bone marrow collection kit is provided comprising a collection container for receiving a bone marrow containing fluid having a body that defines an interior and an inlet opening and an outlet opening and including a prefilter that extends from the outlet opening into the interior of the collection container so that fluid must flow through the prefilter to exit the collection container through the outlet opening. A first inline filter member is coupled to the outlet opening of the collection container, the first inline filter member having a flexible plastic body that defines an interior, and an inlet opening and an outlet opening and the interior including a filter so constructed and arranged that fluid that enters the inlet opening must flow through the filter to exit the first inline filter member through the outlet opening.

  • Patent number: 4937194
    Abstract: A system for metering nutrient media to cell culture containers includes a media flow conduit which defines at one end means for substantially aseptic communication with the source of the media. In a preferred embodiment, sterile connectors may be used for essentially sterile conditions. A branch conduit extends from the flow conduit at a location spaced from the ends. The branch conduit communicates with means for receiving a predetermined-volume aliquot of media through the media flow conduit from said one end. The flow conduit also defines a portion downstream from the branch conduit, which communicates with at least one cell culture container, each container being a flexible bag. At least part of the flexible bag is made of a material capable of providing at least 2 times the oxygen diffusion and at least 2 times the carbon dioxide diffusion between the bag interior and exterior, compared with an identically-sized, sealed bag having polyethylene walls 0.013 inch thick.
