  • Publication number: 20230365206
    Abstract: An idler wheel includes a hub, an outer rim, and a pair of side plates that form an interior cavity extending radially between the outer rim (110) and the hub, and axially between the pair of side plates. The first side plate defines a maximum side plate axial thickness disposed radially next to the hub in a cross-sectional plane containing a radial direction, and an axis of rotation, as well as a minimum side plate thickness disposed radially next to the outer rim. A ratio of the maximum thickness to the minimum thickness ranges from 1.325 to 1.900.

  • Publication number: 20220194495
    Abstract: An idler assembly includes a cylindrical hub defining an axis of rotation, a radial direction, and a circumferential direction. A stepped circumferential surface of the cylindrical hub has a first radially inner face, and a radially outer cylindrical face. Mounting holes extend radially into the radially outer cylindrical face. A first idler segment is attached to the cylindrical hub, and includes an at least partially flat body having a first planar chain link contacting surface. The cylindrical hub has a first set of metallurgical properties that is different than the second set of metallurgical properties of the first idler segment.

  • Patent number: 11042787
    Abstract: This disclosure describes a system for automatically updating item image information stored in an item images data store and used for processing captured images to identify items represented in those images. In one implementation, once an identity of an item has been verified, captured images of that item are associated with the item and stored in the item images data store. As a result, the item images data store is updated each time an image of the item is captured and the identity of the item is verified.

  • Patent number: 10960837
    Abstract: A backup power supply system that is intended to be installed in a vehicle, the system includes a backup battery, a synchronous voltage step-up circuit, a user device providing an emergency service, supplied with power under normal circumstances by the main battery of the vehicle, and under exceptional circumstances by the backup battery through the voltage step-up circuit. The voltage step-up circuit includes a coil, a first transistor and a second transistor. The system includes a backup battery discharge test circuit. The first transistor is used to draw current from the backup battery according to a predefined pattern, which makes it possible, by simultaneously measuring the voltage of the backup battery, to determine an indicator of the state of health of the backup battery.

  • Patent number: 10812528
    Abstract: Anti-Phishing protection assists in protecting against phishing attacks. Any links that are contained within a message that has been identified as a phishing message are disabled. A warning message is shown when the phishing message is accessed. The first time a disabled link within the phishing message is selected a dismissible dialog box is displayed containing information about how to enable links in the message. After the user dismisses the dialog, clicking on a disabled link causes the warning message to flash drawing the user's attention to the potential severity of the problem. The links may be enabled by the user by selecting the warning message and choosing the appropriate option. Once the user enables the links, future displays of the message show the links as enabled.

  • Patent number: 9781102
    Abstract: An improved technique involves setting an administrator password in a server to a temporary password upon receipt of a request for administrator access to the server. Along these lines, when a support engineer receives a support ticket from a customer, the support engineer sends a request to obtain administrator access to the customer's server to an access control computer. The access control computer, upon receipt of the request, generates a temporary password that grants the support engineer a one-time administrator access to the server. The access control computer then changes the administrator password on the server to the temporary password and reveals the temporary password to the support engineer. At some time either after the engineer obtains administrator access to the server or after some specified time has passed, the access control computer invalidates the temporary password by changing the administrator password to a different password.
