Publication number: 20210213817Abstract: An illustrated side view of an exemplary automated car cover device is presented. The automated car cover device is useful for providing a safe and efficient method for covering a car to prevent an exterior of the car from being damaged by the elements, debris, scratches, animals, etc. The automated car cover device further is useful for providing a covering of the car which can be completed by a solo person without being overwhelmed by the size, weight and bulk of the covering. The automated car cover device also provides an easy storage for the covering which can be attached to a hitch of the car or placed on the ground. The device is a canister that houses a reel and a cover. A motor of the device provides the power to extend or retract that cover by rotation of the reel.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 14, 2020Publication date: July 15, 2021Inventor: Larry King

Patent number: 8505013Abstract: Described embodiments provide address translation for data stored in at least one shared memory of a network processor. A processing module of the network processor generates tasks corresponding to each of a plurality of received packets. A packet classifier generates contexts for each task, each context associated with a thread of instructions to apply to the corresponding packet. A first subset of instructions is stored in a tree memory within the at least one shared memory. A second subset of instructions is stored in a cache within a multi-thread engine of the packet classifier. The multi-thread engine maintains status indicators corresponding to the first and second subsets of instructions within the cache and the tree memory and, based on the status indicators, accesses a lookup table while processing a thread to translate between an instruction number and a physical address of the instruction in the first and second subset of instructions.Type: GrantFiled: December 22, 2010Date of Patent: August 6, 2013Assignee: LSI CorporationInventors: Steven Pollock, William Burroughs, Deepak Mital, Te Khac Ma, Narender Vangati, Larry King

Patent number: 6343151Abstract: Methods and apparatus for reducing the bandwidth required to transmit analog information. The analog information is converted to digital data organized in time defined blocks of information called frames. The content of a frame may be modeled as a composite of superimposed objects, which are subsets of information in the frame, that are largely unchanged frame to frame. Each object in a present frame may be represented by an identification of the object and a description of the changes in object-to-frame relationship that occurred from a previous frame to the present frame. The objects in the present frame may then be reconscructed by adjusting the objects in the previous frame in accordance with the change in object-to-frame relationships.Type: GrantFiled: September 26, 2000Date of Patent: January 29, 2002Assignee: Harris CorporationInventor: Larry King
