Joseph Tyrrell has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 10042342
    Abstract: A system and method for remotely monitoring, measuring and controlling power to an electrically powered device with the use of a temperature sensor is disclosed herein. The temperature sensor is configured to transmit temperature readings for room temperatures to the central command computer to prevent harm to equipment within the facility, wherein the central computer is configured to perform reactive operations for other equipment in order to prevent damage to the other equipment based on the temperature readings received from the temperature sensor.

  • Patent number: 9759591
    Abstract: An undershot gate system controls flow of liquid through an open channel or pipe. The system includes a gate leaf adapted to be raised and lowered by a control to allow flow of liquid along the open channel or pipe. The gate leaf has a flow diverter at an end of the gate leaf to guide liquid under the gate leaf and through an opening when the gate leaf is in an open position.

  • Patent number: 9528864
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method of detecting a buildup of silt in a pipe or open channel of a fluid flow network. The pipe or open channel has a system with at least one set of velocity sensors to measure flow velocities at predetermined horizontal levels. The method includes the steps of computing flow using measured flow velocities and cross-sectional areas for each flow layer, summing the flows to provide a total flow, monitoring the measured flow velocities and storing the measured flow velocities to detect any ongoing reduction in flow velocity of at least a lowermost velocity sensor to provide an indication of a buildup of silt in the pipe or open channel.
