Publication number: 20240143662Abstract: One implementation of the present disclosure is a system including one or more memory devices having instructions stored thereon, that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to receive a selection including a context and a twin function and generate an operation to monitor a graph based on the context, the operation identifying whether one or more new events are added to the graph, the one or more new events affecting a processing result. The instructions cause the one or more processors to cause the twin function to execute responsive to identifying the one or more new events added to the graph that affect the processing result, execute the twin function based on the one or more new events and the context to generate the processing result.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 4, 2024Publication date: May 2, 2024Inventors: Trent Mark Swanson, Richard J. Campero, Justin J. Ploegert, Dominick J. O'Dierno, Brian Scott Otto

Patent number: 7404572Abstract: A new and useful curtain air bag having an inflatable fluid cushion with inflatable fluid sections, and a flexible bladder located within the inflatable cushion. A fluid inlet conduit is configured to direct inflation fluid into the bladder from an inflation fluid source. The bladder is configured to redirect, diffuse and distribute the inflation fluid to the inflatable sections of the inflatable cushion, to inflate the portions of the inflatable cushion in a predetermined manner. Another type of curtain air bag assembly includes an inflatable cushion with a pair of similar volume inflatable sections, on opposite sides of an inlet conduit. In each type of air bag assembly, the fluid can be redirected by the bladder or the inflatable cushion, or by a transverse fluid conduit disposed in the bladder or the inflatable cushion.Type: GrantFiled: August 13, 2003Date of Patent: July 29, 2008Assignee: Key Safety Systems, IncInventors: Shakir M. Salmo, Pongdet P. Wipasuramonton, Mark Otto Olson, Jovica J. Jakovski, Charles Stanley Emil Walczak

Patent number: 6962364Abstract: A side curtain air bag assembly is provided, which has an inlet configured to receive inflation gas, a plurality of inflatable chambers; and a distribution tube in fluid communication with the inlet of the air bag. The inlet and the distribution tube are configured to cause inflation gas to flow along the air bag in a predetermined direction, and the distribution tube has a conical portion configured to reduce the pressure of the inflation gas pressure that is communicated from the inlet, and to distribute the inflation gas to the inflatable compartments of the air bag.Type: GrantFiled: May 16, 2003Date of Patent: November 8, 2005Assignee: Key Safety Systems, Inc.Inventors: Chang-Hwan Ju, Shakir M. Salmo, Kenneth Douglas Moniaci, Jeffrey S. Coon, Pongdet Paul Wipasuramonton, Mark Otto Olson, Kaustubh Bedekar, Paul Raymond Weber

Patent number: 6642469Abstract: An electrode clamping system for an EDM-sinking system provides a two-sided dielectric fluid supply to a clamped electrode by placing supply channels in both the fixed and movable parts of the electrode clamping holder. An automatic control circuit controls the flow of the dielectric fluid with reference to a contamination particle concentration in the gap between the electrode and the workpiece, and automatically reduces the flow to a value at which electrode vibrations disappear when changing from rough machining to fine machining.Type: GrantFiled: May 7, 2001Date of Patent: November 4, 2003Inventors: Marjan Dobovsek, Mark Otto, Marina Paradizova, Boris Mrhar, Tomaz Martincic

Patent number: 5371334Abstract: A pair of electrodes are spaced from one another so as to define a gap. One of the electrodes constitutes a workpiece to be machined and the other electrode constitutes a machining tool. To machine the workpiece, groups of electrical discharges are generated between the electrodes. The different groups are separated by pauses which are free of discharges, and the electrical resistance of the electrode gap is measured during the pauses. When the resistance decreases to a critical value, the lengths of the pauses and the spacing between the electrodes are increased until the resistance begins to increase from the critical value. Electrical discharge activity is continued during this time. In the event that these measures fail to cause an increase in the resistance so that the critical value is obtained during several pauses, the electrical discharges are stopped and the machining electrode is abruptly shifted away from the workpiece electrode.Type: GrantFiled: October 9, 1992Date of Patent: December 6, 1994Inventors: Mark Otto, Marjan Dobovsek

Patent number: 4078392Abstract: A direct contact refrigeration system utilizes magnetic fluids, sometimes referred to as ferrofluids, in combination with a suitable refrigerant. The ferrofluid is separated from the refrigerant by magnetic means and circulated to the cooling load. At the same time, the evaporated refrigerant is compressed, condensed and then expanded into direct contact with the warmer ferrofluid returning from the cooling load.Type: GrantFiled: December 29, 1976Date of Patent: March 14, 1978Assignee: Borg-Warner CorporationInventor: Mark Otto Kestner
