Publication number: 20240422165Abstract: A computing system and a method performed by the computing system are presented. The system may provide a cybersecurity analysis platform, and the method may include outputting a plurality of content access options for selection by a user or group of users of the platform, wherein the content access options are associated with different amounts of content access to a cybersecurity intelligence content source. The method may further involve receiving a selection of one of the content access options, and updating, based on the selection, a profile that indicates an amount of content access allocated to the user or group of users. The method may involve receiving a content request from the user or group of users for cybersecurity intelligence content, and responding to the content requested based on whether the allocated amount of content access has been completely depleted.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 24, 2024Publication date: December 19, 2024Inventors: John CASSIDY, Peter PRIZIO, JR., Matthew WALNOCK, Melissa K.

Patent number: 10730495Abstract: The invention relates to an improved plunger assembly for a vehicle brake system. The plunger assembly is operable as a pressure source to control brake fluid pressure supplied to one or more wheel brakes. The plunger assembly comprises a housing defining a cylinder; a reversible motor supported by the housing and having a rotor; and a linear actuator such as a ball screw/nut mechanism driven by the motor. A plunger head is mounted in the cylinder and driven by the linear actuator in first and second opposite directions. Improvements include an elastomeric tubular torque coupler connected to a ball screw/nut anti-rotation member; and a clamped connection at an inner race of a motor bearing for securing the rotor to the ball screw/nut component.Type: GrantFiled: December 31, 2018Date of Patent: August 4, 2020Assignee: ZF Active Safety US Inc.Inventors: Blaise Ganzel, John Cassidy, William Caldwell

Patent number: 10370177Abstract: A dual component insert for use with a spray actuator for dispensing a pressurized product. The dual component insert comprises a support insert and an insert disk. The support insert includes a base wall which has a support discharge orifice formed therein and a cylindrical wall is formed integral with and extends from the base wall so as to define an insert cavity. The insert disk has a disk discharge orifice, a diameter of the disk discharge orifice is smaller than a diameter of the support discharge orifice, and the insert disk is received and captively retained within the insert cavity so that the disk discharge orifice is axially aligned with the support discharge orifice. The insert disk is manufactured from a relatively thin durable material which facilitates fabrication of a consistent, accurate, uniform and well defined small diameter discharge orifice which results in dispensing a fine mist spray.Type: GrantFiled: November 22, 2016Date of Patent: August 6, 2019Assignee: SUMMIT PACKAGING SYSTEMS, INC.Inventors: John Cassidy, Kevin G.

Patent number: 7772483Abstract: An immersion thermocouple is described. The immersion thermocouple includes a heat resistant sheathing, the interior of which is substantially filled with a heat resistant cement, a first U-shaped tube enclosing a thermocouple fixed in the heat resistant cement, and a second U-shaped tube fixed in the heat resistant cement. The second U-shaped tube bridges the first U-shaped tube at an angle of approximately ninety degrees. The immersion thermocouple also includes a shield circumferentially surrounding the first and the second U-shaped tubes proximate to where the first and the second U-shaped tubes are fixed to the heat resistant cement.Type: GrantFiled: April 7, 2006Date of Patent: August 10, 2010Assignee: Heraeus Electro-Nite International N.V.Inventors: John Cassidy, Thomas A.

Publication number: 20070258101Abstract: A method and system reconstructs a contone image from a binary image by first tagging pixels to identify one of a multiplicity of image content types. The tag information and the pattern of bits surrounding the pixel to be converted to a contone value are used to reconstruct a contone image from a binary image. The pattern of bits in the neighborhood is used to generate a unique identifier. The unique identifier is used as the address for a lookup table with the contone value to be used wherein each lookup table corresponds to an image context type.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 10, 2005Publication date: November 8, 2007Applicant: Xerox CorporationInventors: Ramesh Nagarajan, Francis Tse, Chia-Hao Lee, John Cassidy, John Wu

Publication number: 20070134037Abstract: Embodiments herein observe the backing of the document handler to determine if a document was left on the platen and would block the scan head from scanning the documents as they are moved by the document handler. An embodiment herein comprises a transparent platen and a document handler on a first side of the platen. The document handler has a backing, and the backing is adapted to move media within the document handler. A scan head is positioned on a second side of the platen. The scan head remains stationary when scanning the media being moved by the document handler and the scan head moves when scanning media on the platen. The backing of the document handler has a surface that is distinguishable from the media such that the scan head can detect whether the media is on the platen and would block the scan head from scanning the media being moved by the document handler.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 14, 2005Publication date: June 14, 2007Inventors: Francis Tse, John Cassidy

A filter also generates a contone value. A selector selects between the look-up table contone value and the filter contone value based an image context type.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 17, 2005Publication date: May 17, 2007Applicant: Xerox CorporationInventors: Francis Tse, Ramesh Nagarajan, John Cassidy, Chia-Hao Lee, John Wu
