  • Publication number: 20190203527
    Abstract: A pet door is provided herein. The pet door includes a pivotal flap and a frame that defines a through-way. A rotatable knob is mounted to the frame and has a handle portion and a stop wall. The handle portion and stop wall include various profiles and configurations that work in concert to control the flap's direction of pivotal movement. In a first configuration, the flap may swing outwardly or inwardly. A second configuration prevents the flap from swinging inwardly. A third configuration prevents the flap from swinging outwardly. A fourth configuration places the flap is in a locked position to prevent swinging in either direction. The electronic door also includes an electronic latch mechanism which selectively latches and unlatches the flap. The latch mechanism unlatches the flap in response to a wireless signal from an electronic transmitter that may be affixed to a pet.

  • Patent number: 10214697
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a process for reducing the sulphur content of hydrocarbon feedstocks such as Natural Gas Condensate, Kerosene, Jet Fuel, Diesel, Vacuum Gas Oil and Fuel Oil. The process uses a tailored oxidation process comprising one or two oxidation steps to produce sulphoxides and/or sulphones. These sulphoxides and sulphones, while being still present in the liquid hydrocarbon streams, are subsequently extracted thereby producing a low sulphur hydrocarbon stream and optionally following further treatment of the sulphoxides and/or sulphones, produce a low sulphur aromatic hydrocarbon stream and an aqueous stream of sodium sulphite or sulphuric acid. The low sulphur hydrocarbon stream and low sulphur aromatic hydrocarbon stream may be individually recycled or combined for recycling.

  • Patent number: 10200478
    Abstract: Systems and methods for pre-login of user(s) to sessions or resources in an information handling system are disclosed. A method for pre-login may include the steps of determining if any users are to be pre-logged on to a session or resource within a select period of time from a current time, and counting the number of users to be pre-logged on. A pre-login time for the users may be calculated and scheduled, and the users may be pre-logged on to the session or resource at the pre-login time.

  • Patent number: 9792426
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method is performed on a shared-resources system. The method includes creating an anonymous target. The method further includes assigning shared resources to the anonymous target. In addition, the method includes receiving a request for anonymous access from an anonymous user of a client system. The method also includes, responsive to the request, performing the following: generating anonymous-user credentials for the anonymous user; determining the shared resources assigned to the anonymous target; based, at least in part, on the determining, communicating a list of authorized resources to the client system; receiving a request from the client system to access a target resource from the list of authorized resources; and causing an anonymous-user account to be created on the target resource using the anonymous-user credentials.
