  • Publication number: 20240123555
    Abstract: The present disclosure is generally directed to a high temperature lubricant for use in a preheated welding wire system. The lubricant may comprise one or more high melting point materials in a concentration from 0.5 to 30 wt % by weight of the lubricant. The high melting point materials may comprise graphite, molybdenum disulfide, tungsten disulfide, or boron nitride. The lubricant is configured to remain on a welding wire electrode that has been coated with the lubricant without melting when a preheater heats the welding wire electrode to an elevated temperature (e.g., between 500 and 900 degrees Celsius). The lubricant may be a powder or a liquid. When the lubricant is a liquid, it may further comprise a solvent such as 2-proponal or water.

  • Publication number: 20230237263
    Abstract: Systems, methods, devices, instructions, and other examples are described for natural language processing. One example includes accessing natural language processing general encoder data, where the encoder data is generated from a general-domain dataset that is not domain specific. A domain specific dataset is accessed and filtered encoder data using a subset of the encoder data is generated. The filtered encoder data is trained using the domain specific dataset to generate distilled encoder data, and tuning values for the distilled encoder data are generated to configure task outputs associated with the domain specific dataset.

  • Publication number: 20220197550
    Abstract: The Portable Raid Online Storage (PROS) Unit is a new design in mobile storage. It is the first completely portable and completely self-contained Raid Storage system using a chipset with a Raid Controller, Memory and IOP chips. IO uses a PCIe path using a USB-C (usb 3.1) connector. It is made to go into the field with, and sit under the host computer thus taking very little space. It provides up to 14 TBs of Raid 0, 1, or Raid 5 parity storage. Raid 5 will work with Parity to protect the data in case of a Drive Failure. The PROS unit will use NVMe SSD Drives for faster read/write. The size of the device is 14 inches by 9 inches by ˜0.5 inches. Or 35.56 cm×22.86 cm×13 mm. The PROS Unit will be powered via the USB-C port to a 120v AC power source.

  • Patent number: 11357993
    Abstract: A medical lead includes a lead body, an electrical connector, an electrical conductor, and a sleeve. The lead body includes a distal end and a proximal end defining a longitudinal axis of the lead body. The electrical connector is positioned near the proximal end of the lead body. The electrical conductor extends about the longitudinal axis of the lead body. The sleeve is coupled to an insulative material of the lead body and positioned around the electrical conductor. The electrical conductor is electrically coupled to the electrical connector. The sleeve is not fixed to the electrical conductor. In response to bending of the medical lead, the conductor may move within the sleeve to relieve strain created by the bending.

  • Patent number: 10405839
    Abstract: A minimally-invasive tissue retrieval device includes a flexible, liquid-impermeable bag with wires attached to the interior surface by an attachment mechanism that releases the wires when pulled. The wires extend into the bag from opposing sides of the bag opening, down to the bottom of the bag. Ends of the wires extend vertically upward out of the opening and are attachable to a wire retracting element rotatably attached to a housing, such that rotation of the retracting element relative to the housing winds the wires about the retracting element, pulling them away from the interior surface, and upward towards the opening. The bag is insertable into a surgical cavity, where a tissue sample is inserted into the bag. Rotatably-retracting the wires cuts through the tissue, which can then be removed in sections through the opening positioned outside the surgical cavity to prevent the spread of tissue fragments.

  • Patent number: 10248923
    Abstract: The present disclosure describes approaches for generating an information model of a business process. One example is a method comprising receiving an input of an identifier, wherein the identifier corresponds to a node in a network; recursively tracing data packets in the network, wherein the identifier is utilized as a seed for the tracing; and generating an information model of the business process based on the data packets. In further examples, the recursively tracing data packets in the network comprises: identifying, based on the identifier, data packets transferred between the node and one or more nodes; retrieving, from the data packets, one or more identifiers corresponding to the one or more nodes; and identifying, based on the one or more identifiers, additional data packets transferred between the one or more nodes and one or more additional nodes.
