  • Patent number: 11805014
    Abstract: Mesh network resiliency technology, in which a first routing configuration for nodes of a mesh network is determined, the first routing configuration being appropriate when a first power source of the mesh network is available. Routing data that indicates routing responsibilities within the first routing configuration is provided to first nodes of the mesh network. An interruption of the first power source for the mesh network is detected by nodes of the mesh network. In response to detecting the interruption, a second routing configuration for nodes of the mesh network is determined, the second routing configuration being appropriate when the first power source of the mesh network is unavailable. Routing data that indicates routing responsibilities within the second configuration is provided to second nodes of the mesh network, each of the second nodes including a second power source that is different than the first power source.

  • Publication number: 20230300029
    Abstract: A method is described that determines that a replacement node device has been connected to a mesh network, the replacement node device corresponding to an original node that has been removed from the mesh network. In response to determining that the replacement node device has been connected to the mesh network, network topology data is accessed that specifies one or more data routing configurations that are each associated with a node device included in the mesh network. From among the one or more data routing configurations specified by the network topology data, a particular data routing configuration is identified that is associated with the original node device that has been removed from the mesh network. Data that specifies the particular data routing configuration that is associated with the original node device that has been removed from the mesh network is provided to the replacement node device.

  • Patent number: 10830335
    Abstract: An agricultural vehicle including a frame, a prime mover supported by the frame, and a header connected to the frame. The header includes at least one drive line, at least one transmission, at least one rotating cross shaft, and at least one gearbox operably connected to the at least one rotating cross shaft. The at least one gearbox includes a housing connected to the header and configured for housing a working fluid. The housing has an inlet, an outlet, and an end. The at least one gearbox also includes a gear train housed within the housing and an auxiliary sump connected to the end of the housing and fluidly coupled to the inlet and the outlet of the housing such that the working fluid circulates through the housing and the auxiliary sump.

  • Publication number: 20200138021
    Abstract: The present disclosed subject matter relates to an aqueous cleaning composition consisting essentially of malic acid, citric acid, and water, wherein the ratio of the weight ratio of malic acid to citric acid in the antimicrobial composition is between 1/1 and 50/1, and wherein the concentration of the malic and citric acids mixture in the aqueous cleaning composition is between 1% and 20%. The aqueous cleaning composition provides a minimum 3 log kill of microbes, bacteria, or viruses. The aqueous cleaning composition may optionally further include a pH indicator that provides a visual indication to the user of the effectiveness of the composition. The aqueous cleaning composition may be used to deodorize, clean, sanitize, or disinfect porous or hard surface articles and hard surfaces.

  • Patent number: 10154770
    Abstract: The device cleans and disinfects sponges. The device has a tub with a cavity of sufficient space to hold paddles for wringing a sponge, a cartridge for holding a slow-dissolving disinfectant, and a sponge. The cavity is filled with a disinfectant solution. The device can be mounted on the inside wall of a sink or cabinet with an included bracket or can be stood in a base on a countertop. The device includes a warning light programmed to remind the user when to change the slow-dissolving disinfectant. The user inserts a sponge between the paddles, inserts the paddles into the cavity, and squeezes the paddles together. The user then releases the paddles, causing the sponge to absorb the disinfectant solution. When the user removes the paddles, specially-designed fluid channels quickly drain the sponge.

  • Patent number: 9967534
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for a digital video recorder (DVR) video editing system provides a user interface and video editing environment for content stored on a DVR's storage device. A visual progress indicator is displayed over the program content that the user has selected to edit. The user moves a position indicator within a cache bar in the visual progress indicator that indicates how much of the program content has been stored on the storage device. The user can delete sections of the program content. The user can also add other recorded program content into the program content. The deleted sections and added content are highlighted in the cache bar by colors that are different from the normal color used for the cache bar.
