  • Patent number: 11646754
    Abstract: An apparatus includes a power management circuit to receive an input voltage and to generate and provide a first output voltage to an energy storage device. The power management circuit further generates and provides a second output voltage to a load. The first output voltage is greater than the input voltage, and the second output voltage is smaller than the first output voltage. The apparatus further includes a monitor circuit to monitor the first output voltage and to provide a signal to the load to indicate when the load may perform an operation.

  • Patent number: 11619377
    Abstract: A light includes a body, a front housing secured to a front end of the body, a translating retainer rotatably engaged with the front housing, a slip ring positioned around the front housing and between the translating member and the front end of the body, a compressible ring positioned around the front housing and between the slip ring and the front end of the body, a lens mounted to the front housing, an electronic assembly, and a light emitting element in electrical communication with the electronic assembly and positioned within the lens. Rotation of the translating retainer in a first direction causes the translating retainer to drive the slip ring toward the front end of the body, compressing the compressible ring and causing the compressible ring to bulge outward to contact, and removably engage, an inner wall of a pipe or conduit that the light is positioned in.

  • Publication number: 20190190986
    Abstract: A plurality of long poll HTTP GET requests are received from a plurality of clustered applications. The plurality of long poll HTTP GET requests comprises a plurality of identifiers for the plurality of clustered applications. A plurality of event queues are created for the plurality of clustered applications based on the plurality of identifiers. A plurality of events are added to the plurality of event queues based on a plurality of communication sessions. For example, multiple events can be added to the plurality of event queues based on a plurality of incoming calls. A plurality of responses are sent based to the plurality of long poll HTTP GET requests. The plurality of responses includes the plurality of events. This process allows for identification of a corresponding clustered application that is managing a communication session.

  • Publication number: 20110113942
    Abstract: A divider insert feed system having a first air knife 120 and a second air knife 125 that are capable of displacing the divider insert 230 to a cutting position 500. If the first air knife 120 does not properly position the divider insert, then the second air knife 125 is activated to displace the divider insert. If after activating the second air knife 125 it does not properly displace the divider insert, then the first air knife 120 and second air knife 125 toggle back and forth to unjam the divider insert, and properly locate it in a cutting position.
