Publication number: 20230251382Abstract: Computerized methods for determining a volume of an agricultural product in a container include using an image scanning system to determine a first and second point cloud of distance points. The distance points are classified as corresponding to one of the product or the container. The distance points classified as corresponding to the product are used to determine a volume change of the product. A topography of the product can also be isolated from the distance points classified as corresponding to the product, and the topography can be provided at an interview of a computing device.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 18, 2023Publication date: August 10, 2023Inventors: Luke KELLY, Tianyu LIN, Corey BARKHURST, Chad VAN HORN, Mohammad AL-SHORMAN

Publication number: 20230180686Abstract: A fogponics apparatus is provided. The apparatus comprises a fog channel and an air channel. The fog channel has a first fog channel end that is open, and a second fog channel end that is closed. The air channel is within the fog channel and has a first air channel end extending past the first fog channel end, and a second air channel end within the fog channel. The second air channel end is distanced away from the closed second fog channel end such that when vaporized liquid is sent from the first air channel end to the second air channel end, the vaporized liquid egresses the second air channel end and travels through the fog channel to the first fog channel end.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 21, 2021Publication date: June 15, 2023Inventors: Albert AGUILAR SANDRA, Kiwa LANG, Luke KELLY, Andres TORRES

Patent number: 11668433Abstract: A locking system securing an image scanning device to a container includes a compressible material. The compressible material is disposed between a first securing plate and a second securing plate. A rotational element is disposed within curved edges of the first and second securing plates, where the curved edges each curve away from the compressible material. A shaft extends from the rotational element to the image scanning device. A fastener is secured through the first and second securing plates, and into the securing surface to lock the rotational element, and subsequently the shaft and image scanning device, in place. The locking system can be secured to a pitched surface to naturally position the image scanning device perpendicular to level ground.Type: GrantFiled: June 22, 2022Date of Patent: June 6, 2023Assignee: AGI SURETRACK LLCInventors: Luke Kelly, Corey Barkhurst, Cole Fincham

Patent number: 11662468Abstract: An image scanning system for determining a volume of product in a container, such as a grain bin, is secured to the container with a locking system. The image scanning device comprises an image scanning head rotatable in a first direction about a body housing, while the body housing is rotatable in a second direction about a securing arm. The first direction is perpendicular to the second direction. An image scanning device, which can be a LiDAR device, is housed within the image scanning head to image the container and the product as the device components are rotated. Software for controlling the system and outputting a volume change and a typographical representation of the product within the container is further provided.Type: GrantFiled: January 21, 2022Date of Patent: May 30, 2023Assignee: AGI SURETRACK LLCInventors: Luke Kelly, Tianyu Lin, Corey Barkhurst, Chad Van Horn, Mohammad Al-Shorman

Patent number: 11415265Abstract: A locking system securing an image scanning device to a container includes a first and second compressible material. A first securing plate is disposed between the first and second compressible materials, while a second securing plate is adjacent to the second compressible material on a surface opposite a surface of the second compressible material that is adjacent to the first securing plate. A ball is disposed within curved edges of the first and second securing plates, where the curved edges each curve away from the second compressible material. A shaft extends from the ball to the image scanning device. A fastener is secured through the first and second securing plates, and into the securing surface to lock the ball, and subsequently the shaft and image scanning device, in place. The locking system can be secured to a pitched surface to naturally position the image scanning device perpendicular to level ground.Type: GrantFiled: January 21, 2022Date of Patent: August 16, 2022Assignee: AGI SURETRACK LLCInventors: Luke Kelly, Corey Barkhurst, Cole Fincham

Patent number: 9538878Abstract: The present invention is a froth wand for an espresso machine that can generate a high velocity stream of steam to foam a beverage at the beverage brewing apparatus. The wand includes an adapter for attaching to the beverage brewing machine at a steam supply outlet, and a conduit for communicating the steam to a steam tube. The steam tube has a cylindrical body with an annular recessed exit, and is surrounded by a cylindrical sheath. The sheath includes a cylindrical plug with a small longitudinal aperture that fits into the outlet of the steam tube. The mating of the sheath's plug and the steam tube forces the steam through the aperture, accelerating the steam at the exit.Type: GrantFiled: April 13, 2015Date of Patent: January 10, 2017Assignee: B/E Aerospace, Inc.Inventors: Luke Kelly, Keith R. DeBald

Patent number: 9532677Abstract: A brewing system for brewing a beverage is disclosed having an inlet for receiving fresh water for brewing, and a first solenoid for directing water to a water storage tank when a level in the water storage tank falls below a predetermined level. A pair of pumps direct water from the storage tank to a second solenoid. Two or more brew paths lead away from the second solenoid, each brew path including a heating element to heat the water flowing therethrough. The second prevents overpressurization in the brew paths by routing excess pressurized water from the respective brew path back through the second solenoid and out a drain line leading to a drain, where the path to the drain is not part of the brew path.Type: GrantFiled: October 6, 2014Date of Patent: January 3, 2017Assignee: BE INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY, INC.Inventors: Luke Kelly, Winston Fliess
