Publication number: 20240106700Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to methods for sending event notifications. In some examples, a controller periodically sends messages concerning a status of an event corresponding to the controller. In some examples, at a first time while periodically sending the messages and in accordance with a determination that the status of the event has changed, the controller sends a message concerning data other than the status of the event. In some examples, at the first time while periodically sending the messages and in accordance with a determination that the status of the event has not changed, the controller continues to periodically send the messages without sending the message concerning data other than the status of the event.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 23, 2023Publication date: March 28, 2024Inventors: Ramy R.

Patent number: 7617946Abstract: A unitary, removable, transportation ring for maintaining the closure of a covered container, such as a cylindrical paint can, snaps into place and securely maintains a lid on the container even in an environment of high pressure within the container. The ring is responsively operable in the presence of elevated and extreme pressures within the container to improve the engagement of the ring with the container, and to improve the engagement of the lid with the container, each in order to maintain the cover tightly sealed over the top opening of the container. An annular flange depends from the inner radial margin of the body of the ring and abuts the lid or cover of the container to maintain the engagement of the lid with the container.Type: GrantFiled: May 21, 2004Date of Patent: November 17, 2009Assignee: Bway CorporationInventors: Steven W.

Patent number: 7556243Abstract: An apparatus for preventing a collision between a vehicle and an end of a Metal Beam Guide Fence. A transition device is attached to a modified section of the Metal Beam Guide Fence. The transition device and modified section are configured to allow passage of cables of a High Tension Cable Barrier through the Metal Beam Guide Fence and the transition device. The High Tension Cable Barrier redirects the colliding vehicle away from the end of the Metal Beam Guide Fence. The transition device and modified section are also configured to interact with the cables of the High Tension Cable Barrier to transfer and spread the collision load from the high tension cables to the Metal Beam Guide Fence.Type: GrantFiled: May 2, 2006Date of Patent: July 7, 2009Inventor: John P.

Patent number: 7048919Abstract: The present invention demonstrates the biological function of a newly identified osteoclast-secreted protein. This protein, mim-1, has sequence homology with but is distinct from a previously identified neutrophil chemokine protein. Mim-1 may be a key signaling protein secreted by osteoclasts that regulates recruitment and/or differentiation of osteoblast and osteoclast precursor cells. This protein may also serve to maintain osteoclasts in a relatively inactive state prior to secretion. This mechanism is essential for regulating the mass and structural integrity of bone. This protein or an analog and/or antagonists of this protein will have potential therapeutic potential in the treatment of a variety of pathological bone diseases including osteoporosis and metastatic bone diseases.Type: GrantFiled: October 4, 2004Date of Patent: May 23, 2006Assignee: The UAB Research FoundationInventors: John P. Williams, Jay M. McDonald, Margaret A. McKenna

Publication number: 20030222129Abstract: A container adhered partition and method of its assembly, includes a container blank, having a dimensioned partition in its collapsed form applied and adhered to its interior walls, so that when the container is fabricated into the tubular form, both the container and its partition will be self-erecting, into the usable configuration. The method of assembly includes the layout of the blank container upon machinery, the precise positioning of the collapsed partition thereon, folding select walls in sequence of the container, into the tubular form, to provide a collapsed partitioned container for shipment or storage, and subsequent erecting for reception of other packaged goods within the integral partition cells.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 3, 2002Publication date: December 4, 2003Inventor: John P.
