  • Publication number: 20230174366
    Abstract: A product delivery system includes a product transport vehicle having at least a plurality of tank compartments, internal valves, control valves, fluid property sensors, temperature sensors, overfill sensors, pressure sensors, a system controller, and a memory module. The product delivery system may be operable to communicatively connect with the loading system at a loading station, a fleet management system, or a cloud system to obtain information, such as the amount of liquid product to be loaded into a tank compartment. The product delivery system may be operable to compare the volumes of the tank compartments with the amounts of liquid product to be loaded at a loading station and maintain the internal valve or control valve in a locked state or transition the internal valve or control valve to an unlocked state based on the comparison. Other comparisons based on liquid type or distribution tank volume can also be made.

  • Publication number: 20230092734
    Abstract: A transparent tattoo stencil transfer and associated method are provided herein. The transparent tattoo stencil transfer allows a tattoo artist to transfer a selected design onto a transparent plastic sheet for accurate and precise placement of the design from the transparent plastic sheet onto a client's skin. The transparent tattoo stencil transfer may comprise at least a backing sheet, a polyester carbon sheet positioned on top of the backing sheet, a plastic sheet positioned on top of the polyester carbon sheet, and a semi-transparent tissue sheet positioned on top of the plastic sheet. A tattoo design may be placed between the backing sheet and the polyester carbon sheet. A heat transfer process is performed using a thermofax machine to transfer a carbon image of the tattoo design onto the plastic sheet using the polyester carbon sheet.

  • Patent number: 11416423
    Abstract: A peripheral device is tracked between connections to host devices. A peripheral driver is dynamically configured and associated with a peripheral of a host device. A current association between the peripheral device and a current host device is maintained for purposes of providing the peripheral driver of the peripheral device on the current host device to remotely executing applications. The association is dynamically changed/updated based on a connection between the peripheral device and a given host device.

  • Patent number: 11373121
    Abstract: The computing device transforms lab data and field data into a first format suitable for execution with a supervised machine learning model to determine an input variable importance for a first set of input variables in predicting a field outcome. Based on the determination, the computing device generates one or more logical rules of decision metrics, selects the one or more input variables that yields a higher input variable importance, and generates one or more pass-fail indicators. The computing device combines the one or more pass-fail indicators and generates one or more prediction factor rules. The computing device transforms the field data and the one or more prediction factor rules into a second format suitable for execution with a model to determine a treatment effect for the one or more prediction factor rules. The computing device selects the prediction factor rule that maximizes the treatment effect.

  • Publication number: 20220188740
    Abstract: A distributed collaboration interface interacts with a workflow system. A job of the workflow system comprises a series of tasks. Each task of a single job may be performed via the collaboration interface by multiple principals. When a first principal is performing a first task of the job through a first instance of the distributed collaboration interface, second principals performing second tasks of the job may view but may not modify the first task. Moreover, second instances of the distributed collaboration interface associated with the second principals update in real time to lock the first task from being modified by the second principals as soon as the first principal obtains control of the first task within the first instance of the collaboration interface.

  • Patent number: 10882733
    Abstract: An optical fluid sensor (OFS) is disclosed that includes a body defining a chamber and having one or more apertures to allow a fluid to enter the chamber, a light source optically coupled to the chamber and configured to emit light into the chamber, and a detector optically coupled to the chamber and configured to receive light from the chamber. The light source may emit IR, visible, and UV light into the chamber, and the detector may measure an intensity of one or more wavelengths of IR or visible light received by the detector. When fluid is disposed within the chamber, the light emitted by the light source may pass into and through the fluid disposed in the chamber before being received by the detector. A crossover protection system is also disclosed that includes an OFS for determining a transported liquid type.

  • Patent number: 10221522
    Abstract: A cable gripping and tensioning apparatus is provided for attaching a cable to an anchor point such as a wooden post as part of a cable railing system. In one form, the apparatus includes a tubular component and a ferrule. The tubular component includes external threads to engage the wall of a hole in the post, an internal axial bore through which a cable may pass, a first end which may engage a wrench to rotate the tubular component and a second end which may provide a thrust bearing surface. The ferrule is swaged to an end portion of the cable. The ferrule provides a thrust bearing surface for contact with the second end of the tubular component, allowing for the rotation of the tubular component to tension the cable while the cable does not rotate.

  • Publication number: 20170114507
    Abstract: A system for securing a semi-rigid foam member with respect to a poured curable material structure includes a semi-rigid foam member and a stabilizing bracket. Each stabilizing bracket comprises a body and at least one protrusion extending from a facial surface of the body. Each protrusion is configured to be manually and toollessly inserted into the semi-rigid foam member to secure the body of the respective stabilizing bracket to the semi-rigid foam member. The body of each stabilizing bracket can be secured to a support structure to secure the body and the semi-rigid foam member to a support surface of the support structure, with a base surface of the body and a base surface of the semi-rigid foam member abutting the support surface. The semi-rigid foam member is disposed adjacent to the poured curable material structure during curing.

  • Patent number: 9157566
    Abstract: Insulation systems employing expansion features to insulate elongated containers subject to extreme temperature fluctuations, and related components and methods are disclosed. Elongated containers, such as pipes, tanks, vessels may have contents that need to be insulated to prevent heat exchange with the outside environment. Insulation systems are disposed along the perimeter of the elongated containers to prevent the heat exchange. In cases where the insulation systems are subject to extreme temperature fluctuations, components of the insulation may thermally expand and/or contract, and may form gaps between the components. Alternatively, damaging stresses may be formed as the thermal dimensional changes may be restricted as part of the installation. The insulation system comprises expansion features to better enable the gaps to be filled and relieve damaging stresses. In this manner, the elongated containers may be efficiently insulated even while subjected to extreme temperature fluctuations.
