  • Publication number: 20250104942
    Abstract: A device for reversed operation of a first handle is provided. The first handle is of a circuit breaker. The device includes a housing that is attachable to the circuit breaker, and a lever that is rotatably attached to the housing. The lever includes a body, and an arm and a second handle each extending away from the body. The lever is movable in a first direction relative to the housing in response to a force at the second handle, such that when the housing is attached to the circuit breaker and the lever moves in the first direction relative to the housing, the first arm is configured to press against and move the first handle of the circuit breaker in a second direction relative to the housing, the second direction being away from the first direction.

  • Publication number: 20250069839
    Abstract: A circuit breaker accessory for reverse handle operation of a circuit breaker installed in a vertically inverse orientation includes a housing configured for attachment to a face of a circuit breaker on which a switching handle of the circuit breaker is arranged. A reverse switching handle is configured with a transverse sleeve for a pivot axis of operation between a down position and an up position with a top to protrude through the housing. An extension arm has a pivoting connector at a first end for coupling with the bottom end of the reverse switching handle, and a collar at a second end for coupling with the switching handle of the circuit breaker. A pivot shaft couples the transverse sleeve of reverse switching handle with the housing, arranged to fit through the transverse sleeve. The reverse switching handle operates in a direction opposite to the switching handle of the circuit breaker due to extension by the extension arm.

  • Patent number: 12060759
    Abstract: An internal locking ring assembly for a wellhead system that includes a compact single body locking ring design that eliminates the need for a separate casing head and housing configuration or the use of numerous lockdown pins, therefore increasing the safety of the entire drilling operation. The internal locking ring includes outer and inner diameter grooves and angles to accommodate a running tool for collapsing the locking ring for positing into wellhead seats all at lower forces than what is typical due to the lower retrieving torque when trying to retrieve the packoff. Such lower retrieving torque and force allows the use of smaller cross sections of a running tool.

  • Publication number: 20240230600
    Abstract: A method for determining the set of focal laws of a plurality of focal points located in a test object includes the steps of providing a bidimensional array of transducer elements in a coupling medium and defining at least a scan line by a set of focal points. For each scan line, the method comprises performing the sub-steps of choosing a two preliminary focal points, calculating a first auxiliary time-of-flight corresponding to the time-of-flight of a wave emitted from the corresponding transducer element and received in the first preliminary focal point, and a second auxiliary time-of-flight corresponding to the time-of-flight of a wave emitted from the same transducer and received in the second preliminary focal point.

  • Publication number: 20240144558
    Abstract: In some implementations, a monitoring system may capture a set of screenshots that depict behavior associated with a bot during an automation run. The monitoring system may obtain one or more logs that include information describing the behavior of the bot during the automation run. The monitoring system may create, based on a portion of the set of screenshots, video data that includes a sequence of frames related to an anomaly or a failure event that occurred during the automation run. The monitoring system may annotate, based on the information included in the one or more logs, the sequence of frames with metadata describing the behavior of the bot. The monitoring system may provide, to a user device, user interface data that includes the video data and the metadata used to annotate the sequence of frames.

  • Publication number: 20240112229
    Abstract: A monitoring platform may obtain information that identifies a product or service and may collect one or more reviews associated with the product or service from a plurality of sources, wherein each review includes respective review information. The monitoring platform may process the one or more reviews to determine respective additional review information associated with each review of the one or more reviews. The monitoring platform may select, using a machine learning model, a particular review, of the one or more reviews, based on the review information and the additional review information associated with the one or more reviews. The monitoring platform may cause display, on a display of a client device, of a prompt for a response to the particular review and may obtain the response from the client device. The monitoring platform may cause the response to be posted to a source associated with the particular review.
