Publication number: 20230146852Abstract: A hydraulic valve comprises a proportional piloted valve that controls pressure and includes means for restricting pilot flow through the pilot flow passage. The means for restricting pilot flow defines a restriction in the pilot flow passage when a movable spool disposed in an axial bore of the body of the valve is in a neutral position. The restriction varies as a function of spool movement such that flow of hydraulic fluid through the pilot flow passage is variably restricted as a function of the position of the spool over its range of travel.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 28, 2022Publication date: May 11, 2023Applicant: HydraForce, Inc.Inventors: Kevin Cassaidy, Joel Mekkes, Matthew Meyer

Patent number: 11106808Abstract: A system for applying access permissions to read requests may write a file to a storage media. The file may contain data, an embedded flag, and an embedded verification datum of the embedded flag. The embedded flag may indicate an access permissions requisite for file access. The system may also receive a request to access the file from a user and retrieve an access permission for the user. The system may also compare the embedded flag to the access permission for the user to determine the user has permission to access the file. A verification datum may be calculated, and the calculated verification datum may be compared to the embedded verification datum to determine the embedded flag has not changed.Type: GrantFiled: February 18, 2019Date of Patent: August 31, 2021Assignee: AMERICAN EXPRESS TRAVEL RELATED SERVICES COMPANY, INCInventors: Debasish Das, Kunal Joshi, Matthew Meyer, Jeremy Seideman
