Patent number: 10819100Abstract: The carbon monoxide detector and shutoff system is an electrical switching device. The carbon monoxide detector and shutoff system inserts into an electrical connection between the national electric grid and an electrical load. The carbon monoxide detector and shutoff system senses the carbon monoxide concentration within the atmosphere. Should the detected concentration of carbon monoxide exceed a threshold level, the carbon monoxide detector and shutoff system interrupts the circuit between the national electric grid and the electrical load. The carbon monoxide detector and shutoff system comprises a pass-through circuit, a control circuit, and a housing. The housing contains the pass-through circuit and the control circuit. The pass-through circuit inserts a relay between the national electric grid and the electrical load. The control circuit is an electrical circuit that opens and closes the relay in response to the detected concentration of carbon monoxide.Type: GrantFiled: October 2, 2018Date of Patent: October 27, 2020Inventors: Jose Andrade, Antonio Andrade

Patent number: 10599782Abstract: Improved translation operations are disclosed. A first segment of text in a first language is received, to be translated into a second language. The first segment is evaluated, by operation of one or more processors, of text using the pattern model to generate a first s-score. A second segment of text in the second language is generated based on processing the first segment of text using a machine translation model. Upon determining that the first s-score exceeds a predefined threshold, the first segment of text is flagged for auto-substitution with the second segment of text, such that the first segment of text is not reviewed by a human editor.Type: GrantFiled: May 21, 2018Date of Patent: March 24, 2020Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Francis X Rojas, Saroj K Vohra, Mauricio Kaoru Noriyuki, Almiro Jose Andrade, Jr., Bianca Bonetto Leal Rodrigues, Patricia Pavan Esposito

Patent number: 9311745Abstract: Systems and methods are described for performing mechanical analysis of particulate systems by describing particle morphology of particles within the system using Non-Uniform Rational Basis Spline (NURBS). One embodiment includes generating a NURBS description for the particle morphology of a plurality of particles within a particulate system, determining contact points between at least two particles based on the NURBS description, determining a magnitude of the contact between the at least two particles based on the NURBS description, determining normal forces and associated moments based upon the contact points and the magnitude of the contact between the at least two particles, determining tangential forces and associated moments based upon the contact points and the magnitude of the contact between the at least two particles, and performing mechanical analysis of the particulate system based on the contact between the at least two particles and the resulting forces and associated moments.Type: GrantFiled: January 14, 2013Date of Patent: April 12, 2016Assignee: California Institute of TechnologyInventors: Jose Andrade, Keng-Wit Lim

Publication number: 20090272773Abstract: A multi-function backpack-vest that allows for size adjustment so that the backpack-vest may be worn by any user, regardless of size. The backpack-vest has various compartments in which users may place items. Some of these compartments are so designed that body-armor, personal floatation materials or insulation material may be placed within them. Also, the backpack-vest features a compartment in which a laptop may be placed and when housed in said compartment the laptop will be supported on a work platform, which is supported by straps on either side of said platform, connecting the platform to the backpack-vest.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 1, 2009Publication date: November 5, 2009Inventor: Jose Andrade

Publication number: 20080031915Abstract: The invention relates to a cartilage and bone repair composition comprising a group of human mesenchymal stem cells that are differentiated to the chondro-osteogenic lineage, by means of the amplification thereof with human serum and a transforming growth factor-beta 1 with a molecular domain for binding to collagen I (TGF-?1-DUC) obtained in eukaryotic expression systems, and a biocompatible material which is absorbed by the cells thus treated. The inventive composition can be employed using implants in the area to be repaired or it can be employed directly by injecting the cells in suspension either at the site of the injury or into the systemic circulation for the widespread distribution thereof.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 20, 2005Publication date: February 7, 2008Inventors: Jose Becerra Ratia, Jose Andrades Gomez, Manuel Cifuentes Rueda, Enrique Guerado Parra

Patent number: 6079325Abstract: Trackless gantry press apparatus includes, in one embodiment, a plurality of truss setup tables configured to form a row of spaced truss setup tables. Each table includes wheel guides coupled at opposing ends and extending the width of the table. The guides are configured to be in substantial alignment with the guides coupled to adjacent tables. The apparatus also includes a press assembly for pressing nailing plates into truss members. The press assembly includes a substantially cylindrically shaped roller movably coupled to a substantially inverted U-shaped frame. The press assembly also includes at least four support wheels and at least four reaction pressure wheels coupled to each opposite end of the frame and configured so that at least three support wheels on each end of the press assembly are in contact with the wheel guides at all times as the press assembly traverses the spaces between the spaced setup tables.Type: GrantFiled: September 25, 1998Date of Patent: June 27, 2000Assignee: MiTek Holdings, Inc.Inventors: Robert A. LePoire, Jose A. Andrade, Murray Martin

Patent number: 5189865Abstract: An article wrapping device feeds an article to be wrapped on a conveyor in a generally horizontal direction. A sheet of wrapping material is fed upward from beneath the conveyor to intersect the path of the article. The sheet of wrapping material is maintained in a generally vertical orientation by a flow of forced air between the sheet of wrapping material and a generally vertical displaceable wall suspended alongside the path of the sheet of wrapping material. As the article intersects the sheet of wrapping material and the displaceable wall, the wall is displaced, and forces a leading edge of the sheet of wrapping material over a top side of the article.Type: GrantFiled: June 3, 1992Date of Patent: March 2, 1993Assignee: IDAB IncorporatedInventors: Jose A. Andrade, Leonard A. Watts
