Abstract: An excess flow valve (EFV) is disclosed that has an efficient and durable construction. The EFV is efficient in terms of both size and cost. It is durable partly due to a design with few parts and also because of optional all metal construction. In some embodiments, an intumescent material is included that expands to close off the valve by pressing the valve plug into sealing engagement with the valve seat and permanently stopping the flow of gas when a pressure differential or flow velocity threshold is exceeded.

Abstract: A filter is disclosed. The filter includes a sheet of filter media defining a body having an upper portion, a lower portion, a first end surface proximate the upper portion, a second end surface proximate the lower portion, and a first side surface extending between the first and second end surfaces. One or more of the upper and lower portions define a ledge, wherein the ledge defines a third end surface arranged between the first and second end surfaces, and a second side surface extending between the first and third end surfaces; and a seal disposed upon the ledge. A method for manufacturing the seal is also disclosed.

Abstract: An electric motor includes a housing with an inner surface and an outer surface positioned radially outward from the inner surface. The electric motor includes a stator coupled to the inner surface, an electrical component coupled to the outer surface, and a cooling channel positioned within the housing between the inner surface and the outer surface. The housing is additively manufactured with the cooling channel formed therein. The electric motor includes a bus bar assembly formed as an axial stack.

Abstract: An embodiment of the present disclosure of an exercise bag system that includes a bag article, a first closure system, a second closure system and a third closure system. The bag article includes a bottom, a top spaced from the bottom, an opening at the top, and at least first and second side panels that extend from the bottom to the top and defines an internal space such that the opening provides access to the internal space. Each of the first and second side panels have an inner surface that at least partially defines the internal space and an outer surface. The first closure system is at the top and proximate the opening and inside the bag article. The second closure system is at the top and located entirely on the outer surface of the first side panel. The third closure system is at the top and on a foldable panel coupled to the first side panel, such that when the first closure system and the second closure system are engaged, the third closure system is configured to be engaged to seal the bag article.

Abstract: An embodiment of the present disclosure of a pack article that includes an internal space configured to receive a weighted exercise plate, a lumbar support member, and sternum strap for improving stability during use.

Abstract: An embodiment of the present disclosure of a rucking system that includes a stackable plate assembly having a first plate and a second plate.

Abstract: A method for managing data includes generating, by an offload device, predicted active logical partition data using an active logical partition mapping obtained from a host computing device, generating logical partition correlation data using active memory track maps obtained from the host computing device, generating most probable tracks using the predicted active logical partition data and the logical partition correlation data, and sending the most probable tracks to the host computing device, wherein the host computing device evicts data from a memory device based on the most probable tracks.

Abstract: A method and system for proactive data migration across tiered storage that uses machine learning is shown. The method includes receiving first input-output (IO) event metadata describing a first IO event, and analyzing the first IO event metadata using an optimized learning model (OLM), to obtain a first learning model output. The first learning model output is interpreted to generate a first data migration request, and the first data is proactively migrated from a first storage tier to a second storage tier based on the first data migration request.

Abstract: A method and system for proactive data migration across tiered storage that uses machine learning is shown. The method includes receiving first input-output (TO) event metadata describing a first IO event, and analyzing the first IO event metadata using an optimized learning model (OLM), to obtain a first learning model output. The first learning model output is interpreted to generate a first data migration request, and the first data is proactively migrated from a first storage tier to a second storage tier based on the first data migration request.

Abstract: A parallel decompression engine has separate hardware paths for sequence processing and repeated byte copying/placement. Literal byte extraction logic obtains literal bytes from a selected sequence. Literal byte write logic writes the obtained literal bytes into an uncompressed data set that is being generated. Offset and length extraction logic obtains the offset and length of repeated bytes from the selected sequence. In a separate hardware path, copying and placement logic uses the offset and length to find and copy the length of repeated bytes at the specified offset in the uncompressed data set, and place the copied repeated bytes back into the uncompressed data set adjacent to the literal bytes.

Abstract: An insert for the seat of a child is provided. The insert has detachable elements which may be selectively added or changed depending on the size of the child. The insert has a head rest having a removable interior hollow sound channel or a two way traditional speaker system. The head rest has an internal Bluetooth, a micro SD/TF slot and/or an audio port which may connect to an external mp3 player. A plurality of parallel slits through the main body section of the insert allows harness hardware of a child's car seat (or other seat) to be inserted through the main body section of the insert at various locations; therein allowing the insert to be used in connection with various car seats.
