Publication number: 20230367475Abstract: Systems and methods of determining whether to initiate a pull of an accumulated data transfer amount are described. An accumulated data transfer amount for a periodic data transfer scheduled to be pushed at a future date is determined. A determination is made of whether an overall data amount in a storage location is expected to be greater at a date on or after the scheduled future date if a pull of the accumulated data transfer amount is performed before the scheduled future date than if a pull operation is not performed and the accumulated data transfer amount is sent at the scheduled future date. When the overall data amount in the storage location is expected to be greater at the scheduled future date if the pull of the accumulated data transfer amount is performed, a pull of the accumulated data transfer amount is initiated.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 13, 2022Publication date: November 16, 2023Applicant: The Toronto-Dominion BankInventors: Jonathan Joseph PRENDERGAST, Christopher Mark JONES, Thomas Osman KELLY

Patent number: 11797962Abstract: Configuring data transfers based on electronic messages. A system includes a communication module, a processor, and a memory. The memory stores instructions that, when executed, configure the processor to: receive, from a client device, an authentication credential and associate the authentication credential with a client record. The processor identifies, based on delegated access to query a message account at a message server, a resource request message associated with the message account using a defined criteria. The processor obtains, based on the resource request message, a resource parameter to define a proposed resource transfer to a recipient entity. The processor generates and transmits, to the client device, a transfer request alert based on the proposed resource transfer for display at the client device. In response to receiving, from the client device, a selection of a selectable option, the processor allocates a resource to the recipient entity.Type: GrantFiled: June 10, 2019Date of Patent: October 24, 2023Assignee: The Toronto-Dominion BankInventors: Christopher Mark Jones, Marc Chalifoux, Sara Knechtel

Publication number: 20230268856Abstract: The invention was conceived to facilitate in the advancement in internal combustion engine driven generators. Generators today consist of either an inverter generator design or a synchronous alternator design. Both designs have their advantages and disadvantages. The inverter generator offers very precise AC power output, lower noise level, and lower fuel consumption rates but can’t handle heavy inductive loads well. The synchronous alternator offers slightly less precise AC power output, greater noise level, higher fuel consumption rates but can power heavy inductive loads very well. The invention incorporates both, known inverter generator design and known synchronous alternator design, connected to an internal combustion engine, to form a hybrid generator design.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 22, 2022Publication date: August 24, 2023Inventor: Steven Mark Jones

Patent number: 11645638Abstract: In a method for advanced identification of a customer, a customer may remotely place an order, intending to later go to a store to pick up the ordered item. The store may have a pick-up area (e.g., at the back of the store) where the customer can go to pick up the ordered item. To save the customer time, the customer may be identified when she enters the store so that an employee can obtain her ordered item and have it ready to pick up by the time the customer walks through the store and arrives at the pick-up area.Type: GrantFiled: March 11, 2020Date of Patent: May 9, 2023Assignee: WALGREEN CO.Inventors: Nimesh S.
