Publication number: 20220406142Abstract: A gaming machine includes a processor and a presentation device coupled to the processor. The processor is programmed to determine that a free play trigger condition is satisfied, and to execute one or more free plays based on the free play trigger condition to create one or more free play outcomes. Each free play outcome is a winning free play outcome or a non-winning free play outcome. The presentation device is configured to present winning free play outcomes when at least one free play outcome is a winning free play outcome. Non-winning free play outcomes are not presented.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 22, 2022Publication date: December 22, 2022Inventors: Mark Daniel Eubanks, Sarah Jean Gozdecki, Steve Nicodemus, Richard Kerr Sisson, Jeremy Michael Webb

Patent number: 11398645Abstract: Processes and reaction mixtures including non-aqueous solvent mixtures are presented. Non-aqueous solvent mixtures including fluoride salt and non-aqueous solvent combinations are provided that possess high fluoride ion concentrations useful for a range of applications, including organic synthesis. Further non-aqueous solvent mixtures are provided including a salt possessing a non-fluoride anion and a non-aqueous solvent that, when contacted with aqueous fluoride-containing reagents, extract fluoride ions to form non-aqueous fluoride-ion solutions possessing high fluoride-ion concentrations. The salts include an organic cation that does not possess a carbon in the ?-position or does not possess a carbon in the ?-position having a bound hydrogen. This salt structure facilitates its ability to be made anhydrous without decomposition. Example anhydrous fluoride salts include (2,2-dimethylpropyl)trimethylammonium fluoride and bis(2,2-dimethylpropyl)dimethylammonium fluoride.Type: GrantFiled: September 25, 2019Date of Patent: July 26, 2022Assignees: California Institute of Technology, The Regents of the University of CaliforniaInventors: Simon C.

Patent number: 11279492Abstract: A method for managing icing conditions on a rotary aircraft via one or more ice protection controllers. The method includes steps for receiving an icing condition signal from an icing rate sensor at an ice protection controller, determining, in response to the icing condition signal, a de-icing signal based at least in part a liquid water content (LWC). The method further includes steps for transmitting, via a digital communication bus disposed in at least part of a slip ring assembly, the de-icing signal to a upper distributor to cause the upper distributor to transmit power to one or more heating elements for a respective rotor blade.Type: GrantFiled: November 14, 2019Date of Patent: March 22, 2022Assignee: Rosemount Aerospace Inc.Inventors: Harold Edward Garnett, Matthew Michael Webb, Jason Lee Skoglund

Patent number: 11069921Abstract: Electrolyte solutions including at least one anhydrous fluoride salt and at least one non-aqueous solvent are presented. The fluoride salt includes an organic cation having a charge center (e.g., N, P, S, or O) that does not possess a carbon in the ?-position or does not possess a carbon in the ?-position having a bound hydrogen. This salt structure facilitates its ability to be made anhydrous without decomposition. Example anhydrous fluoride salts include (2,2-dimethylpropyl)trimethylammonium fluoride and bis(2,2-dimethylpropyl)dimethylammonium fluoride. Combining these fluoride salts with at least one fluorine-containing non-aqueous solvent (e.g., bis(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)ether; (BTFE)) promotes solubility of the salt within the non-aqueous solvents. The solvent may be a mixture of at least one non-aqueous, fluorine-containing solvent and at least one other non-aqueous, fluorine or non-fluorine containing solvent (e.g., BTFE and propionitrile or dimethoxyethane).Type: GrantFiled: June 10, 2020Date of Patent: July 20, 2021Assignees: California Institute of Technology, Honda Motor Co., Ltd.Inventors: Simon C. Jones, Victoria K. Davis, Christopher M. Bates, Nebojsa Momcilovic, Brett M. Savoie, Michael A. Webb, Thomas F. Miller, III, Robert H. Grubbs, Christopher Brooks, Kaoru Omichi

Patent number: 11057479Abstract: A method may include obtaining a first dependency of a first calling service on a called service and a second dependency of a second calling service on the called service. The method may further include generating a first routing configuration for the first calling service that maps a name of the called service to an ingress point of a first cluster, generating a second routing configuration for the second calling service that maps the name of the called service to the ingress point of the first cluster, detecting a relocation of the called service to a second cluster, modifying the first routing configuration to map the name of the called service to an ingress point of the second cluster, and modifying the second routing configuration to map the name of the called service to a local name of the called service within a namespace of the second cluster.Type: GrantFiled: December 30, 2019Date of Patent: July 6, 2021Assignee: Intuit Inc.Inventors: Jason Michael Webb, Anil Kumar Attuluri, Laurent R.

Patent number: 10853796Abstract: Techniques are described for automatically presenting workflow(s) in an application based at least partly on detected signal(s). A radio-frequency signal may be emitted from a transceiver included in, attached to, or otherwise associated with a payment card. The signal may be received by a transceiver of a user device when the card is in proximity to the device and, in response, an application may launch a workflow including one or more pages of content in the application. The launched workflow may include functionality for activating a payment card, based on a determination that the card is not yet activated. The launched workflow may also include functionality for viewing account information, based on a determination that the card is already activated.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 2016Date of Patent: December 1, 2020Assignee: United Services Automobile Association (USAA)Inventors: Matthew David Nolte, William Michael Webb, Shiloh Huff, Shane J.
