  • Intravenous filter
    Patent number: 11672908
    Abstract: IV filters are described herein. An IV filter includes a body, a filter media, and a bulb. The body defines a body volume. The filter media is disposed within the body volume. The filter media defines an inlet portion of the body volume and an outlet portion of the body volume. The filter media permits inlet flow from the inlet portion of the body volume to the outlet portion of the body volume and captures particulate from the inlet flow. The bulb defines a bulb volume in fluid communication with the outlet portion of the body volume. The bulb is deformable to compress the bulb volume and direct back flow from the outlet portion of the body volume through the filter media and into the inlet portion of the body volume, displacing particulate captured in the filter media into the inlet portion of the body volume.

  • ENHANCING INPUT TO CONVERSATIONAL AGENTS THROUGH FEEDBACK
    Publication number: 20230177077
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method, a computer system and a computer program product enhance user input to a conversational agent. The method includes identifying a word using a natural language processing algorithm. The word is in a query from a user to the conversational agent. The method also includes determining a set of keywords related to each of a plurality of intents associated with the conversational agent within a database. In addition, the method includes calculating a semantic similarity score between each determined set of keywords and the identified word. Lastly, the method includes displaying the identified word on a screen to the user when the identified word is not found in each determined set of keywords and when the semantic similarity score is above a threshold. The display includes a distinct indication of the identified word.

    Publication number: 20230149628
    Abstract: A circular roller clamp assembly includes a semi-circular housing configured to receive a portion of an IV tube, a motor and a motor arm coupled to the motor. A roller is coupled to the roller arm, the roller movably received by a guide groove disposed in the semi-circular housing.

  • Low-latency, high-availability and high-speed SerDes interface having multiple synchronization modes
    Patent number: 11646861
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes using a transmitter to send data from the transmitter through a plurality of lanes to a receiver using a synchronous operation mode that includes sending the data from the transmitter through the plurality of lanes to the receiver in a synchronous transmission manner that relies on an alignment between a transmitter clock frequency and a receiver clock frequency. A synchronous operation performance analysis (SOPA) is performed during the synchronous operation mode. A switch from the synchronous operation mode to an asynchronous operation mode is made based on a result of performing the SOPA. The asynchronous operation mode includes sending the data from the transmitter through the plurality of lanes to the receiver without requiring alignment between the transmitter clock frequency and the receiver clock frequency.

  • Method of operating a lighting assembly in a refrigerator appliance
    Patent number: 11639823
    Abstract: A refrigerator appliance includes a chilled chamber defining a plurality of cooling zones and a lighting assembly comprising a plurality of lighting zones corresponding to the plurality of cooling zones. A climate control system generates and selectively directs a flow of cooling air into the plurality of cooling zones such that the temperature in each zone is independently regulated and the lighting assembly selectively illuminates the plurality of lighting zones to provide user feedback regarding the operation of the climate control system, e.g., by indicating which zones are receiving the flow of cooling air, by notifying a user when a zone has reached a setpoint temperature, or by identifying the presence and location of a flow restriction.

  • GOLF CLUB HEADS
    Publication number: 20230118646
    Abstract: Described are embodiments of golf club heads having an internal cavity and features that cause the golf club head to have an improved acoustic performance when striking a golf ball. Some embodiments include one or more weight tracks and/or weight ports formed in the sole for receiving adjustable weights. The golf club heads can include one or more internal ribs, thickened wall regions, and/or posts positioned within the cavity that increase the rigidity of the club head and improve the acoustic performance of the club head when striking a ball.
