Publication number: 20240114199Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes accessing, by a computing device local to a cinema, a manifest identifying dynamic content from a supply-side platform that may be placed in a digital cinema package (DCP) for that cinema during a period of time and storing, by the computing device local to the cinema, each item of dynamic content identified in the manifest for that period of time. The method further includes requesting a dynamic content item for a particular slot in a DCP for display at the cinema during the period of time; receiving an identification of a particular dynamic content item for the particular slot; accessing the identified particular dynamic content item from the dynamic content items previously stored by the computing device local to the cinema; and generating, by the computing device local to the cinema, a DCP including the particular dynamic content item to transmit to the TMS.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 29, 2023Publication date: April 4, 2024Inventors: Joseph Edgar Edwards, VIII, Ricardo Cabrera

Publication number: 20230235458Abstract: Additively manufactured showerheads for semiconductor processing operations are disclosed that may have various features enabled by the use of such manufacturing techniques. In some implementations, such showerheads may have multiple independent flow paths featuring transverse passages arranged to form a rhombic lattice pattern and gas distribution ports and/or riser passages that are located at various intersections between such transverse passages. Such showerheads may also include features that improve their manufacturability while providing desired gas flow performance. For example, the cross-sections of the transverse passages may be designed such that they are generally triangular or pentagonal in shape, which may allow for more efficient use of available material volume within the showerhead for the purposes of providing gas flow passages while also providing geometries that take into account the limitations of typical additive manufacturing processes that may be used.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 22, 2021Publication date: July 27, 2023Inventor: Joseph Edgar Morgan

Publication number: 20220337049Abstract: A circuit interrupting device including a phase conductor, a neutral conductor, an interrupter configured to disconnect the phase conductor and the neutral conductor from a load, and a sensor configured to generate a signal indicative of current flowing through the phase conductor and the neutral conductor. The circuit interrupting device further includes a microcontroller that includes an electronic processor and is electrically connected to the first sensor and the interrupter. The microcontroller is configured to generate a reference signal, receive a first signal from the sensor, determine whether a difference between a voltage of the first signal and a voltage of the reference signal exceeds a threshold, determine whether the microcontroller has performed a ground fault self-test, and activate the interrupter when the difference exceeds the threshold and the microcontroller has not performed the ground fault self-test.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 19, 2022Publication date: October 20, 2022Inventors: John E. Brower, James Casey Musson, William Vernon Miller, III, Joseph Michael Meady, Joseph Edgar Dupuis, Brian S. Chia

Patent number: 9858232Abstract: An apparatus and method is disclosed for providing an extensible information handling system (IHS) bus implemented on predetermined channels of a digital video interface. IHS video signal information is multiplexed with IHS bus information by a host multiplexer for transmission across a digital video connector. The multiplexed IHS video signal and IHS bus information is received by a display multiplexer, where it is demultiplexed. Demultiplexed IHS video signal information is received by a video interface receiver, where it is used to generate an image on a digital display. Demultiplexed IHS bus information is received by a host bus interface transmitter/receiver, where it is used to support peripheral devices attached to the digital display.Type: GrantFiled: October 31, 2014Date of Patent: January 2, 2018Assignee: Dell Products L.P.Inventors: Joseph Edgar Goodart, Shuguang Wu

Patent number: 9787039Abstract: An electrical connector adapted to receive a mating plug utilizes low-profile jack terminal contacts that can flex in their PCB-anchored base portions, which are substantially parallel to the PCB. Any bend in the distal connecting portion or in the intermediate transition portion of each terminal contact is gradual and forms an obtuse angle, thus minimizing stress concentrations. The contacts preferably are arranged in two oppositely facing and interdigitating rows of four contacts each. In one embodiment, the terminal contacts are anchored to the PCB by a contact cradle that constrains the base portion of each terminal contact at two spaced anchoring locations, allowing the base portion to flex therebetween. In another embodiment, the base portions of the terminal contacts are embedded in at least one elastomeric member, which is fitted to the PCB.Type: GrantFiled: October 20, 2016Date of Patent: October 10, 2017Assignee: Hubbell IncorporatedInventors: Shadi Alex AbuGhazaleh, Joseph Edgar Dupuis, Christopher Wayne Gribble, Naved Shah Khan, Douglas Paul O'Connor
