  • Patent number: 11283736
    Abstract: Utilizing a computing device executing a master chatbot and one or more modular chatbots to respond to one or more chat messages. A computing device executing the master chatbot receives one or more chat messages. The computing device parses the received one or more chat messages to discover an intent and entities contained within the chat messages. A ranking algorithm is employed to rank the master chatbot and a plurality of modular chatbots, the ranking algorithm scoring the master chatbot and the plurality of modular chatbots based upon the intent and entities contained within the one or more chat messages. The master chatbot responds to the chat message if the ranking algorithm rates the master chatbot highest or forwards automatically the one or more chat messages to a ranked modular chatbot for response if the ranking algorithm rates the ranked modular chatbot highest.

  • Patent number: 9028186
    Abstract: A nut assembly and a holddown assembly using the nut assembly are described, including methods of manufacture and assembly. The nut assembly may include a body portion having first and second openings with an internal wall extending between them. A rotation-inhibiting wall may be included between the first and second openings. A nut portion configured to move axially within the internal wall of the body portion includes structures for co-acting with a rotation-inhibiting wall to limit or prevent rotation of the body portion and the nut portion relative to each other. A nut portion and a body portion extending around the nut portion have limited axial movement relative to each other due to axial engagement between adjacent surfaces on the nut portion and the body portion.

  • Patent number: 8931993
    Abstract: Fastener assemblies, elements for fastener assemblies and methods of making and assembling elements for fastener assemblies, for example for insulation blanket fasteners such as those used on aircraft, may include a formed monolithic metal configuration having first and second side portions with a plurality of panel retaining elements arranged linearly along the side portions. A planar retaining element, for example a disc, may be assembled with the metal portion to form a fastener assembly, such as may be used to retain and insulation blanket. The planar retaining element may include a rolled edge, and if a coated part, may include surface projections to keep adjacent parts from sticking together during the coating process.

  • Publication number: 20130147245
    Abstract: A cushion device is disclosed for covering and protecting the center console and/or armrest in a vehicle. The cushion device comprises an outer covering and a cushion insert. The outer covering comprises an interior hollow cavity with an opening at either end. The cushion insert is disposed interior to the outer covering within the hollow cavity. The cushion device is then removably secured to a vehicle seat armrest or console lid, or other suitable vehicle part. The cushion device is typically secured via a looped component (or sleeve) which is secured to the bottom portion of the outer covering. The outer covering can further comprise a securing component to securely close the opening at either end, and to securely retain the cushion insert within the outer covering.
