  • Patent number: 11976668
    Abstract: A flow guiding device for use on a fan assembly with a motor-operated radial impeller rotating about an axis of rotation. The guiding device has an outer housing and an inner diffuser. A flow duct is formed between the outer housing and inner diffuser. The flow duct extends along an axial flow direction. The outer housing forms a receiving space for the integral holding of the radial impeller. The impeller borders, in the axial direction, on the inner diffuser. The impeller, during operation, takes in a flow axially and blows it out radially into the flow duct. The flow duct is adapted to deflect the flow from a radial direction into an axial direction.

  • Publication number: 20240131985
    Abstract: A motor vehicle includes a central light control unit and a plurality of interior light modules, each of which includes a single light source or a plurality of light sources. The motor vehicle also includes a data bus via which the central light control unit and the interior light modules are coupled to one another. The central light control unit is configured to transmit control commands to the interior light modules in order to trigger motor vehicle interior lighting effects, wherein control information, which is included in the control commands and includes at least one color value and one brightness value for the interior light modules, is created based on runtime-variable input data. The runtime-variable input data is based on current ambient conditions of the motor vehicle and/or variable data sources of the motor vehicle.

  • Publication number: 20240096222
    Abstract: System and graphical user interface for managing communications between a remote terminal device operated by a remote pilot or other operator and an uncrewed aircraft. The communication system may include a satellite communication system or other relay communication system that is used to relay voice communication packets between the terminal device and the uncrewed aircraft. A computing system on board the uncrewed aircraft is configured to monitor an RF-communication channel between the uncrewed aircraft and an air traffic control (ATC) facility. In accordance with a state of the RF-communication channel and input provided at the remote terminal device, the computing system may transmit, buffer, delay, store, suppress transmission of, or delete voice communication messages generated by the remote pilot or operator at the terminal device.

  • Patent number: 11880422
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and techniques for application isolation by remote-enabling applications are provided. Example embodiments provide an Adaptive Rendering Application Isolation System (“ARAIS”), which transparently enables applications to run in an isolated execution environment yet be rendered locally in a manner that facilitates preventing theft of sensitive information while allowing users to interact with any third-party application or website via the local environment without overburdening available bandwidth or computational resources by, in some cases, evaluating only select information responsive only to select events, as compared to whitelist/blacklist techniques, monitoring all information provided by the user, or other techniques. The ARAIS typically includes an orchestrator server that comprises one or more of a sensitive-information theft-prevention logic engine, information-theft prevention engines, or a rules engine.

  • Publication number: 20230367836
    Abstract: A server receives from a client device that is executing a web browser application a request to initiate a remote application in the server. The server instantiates an instance of the remote application. The server intercepts draw commands associated with the remote application instance. The server provides the draw commands to the client to cause the web browser application to render portion(s) of output based on the draw commands. The server receives an input event from the web browser application. The server provides the client one or more draw commands based on the input event to cause the web browser application to render portion(s) of output based on those draw commands.

  • Patent number: 11812901
    Abstract: A potting training device for preventing a potty training child's urine stream from passing through an opening between the toilet seat and the toilet bowl is made of a flexible, water-resistant, preferably non-porous flat sheet material, having a folding seam separating the device into an top portion containing a plurality of attachment tabs and a bottom portion containing a urine-deflector. An adhesive material is applied to the surface of each attachment tab and attaches the attachment tabs to the underside of the toilet seat. The flat sheet material, in its unattached configuration, is manipulated into a curved configuration that matches the curvature of the toilet seat, and is attached thereto.

  • Patent number: 11219343
    Abstract: A potting training device for preventing a potty training child's urine stream from passing through an opening between the toilet seat and the toilet bowl is made of a flexible, water-resistant, preferably non-porous material, having a bendable urine-deflector and a plurality of attachment tabs positioned at the top of, and substantially at right angles to, the bendable urine-deflector, thereby forming an L-shaped configuration. An adhesive material is applied to the surface of each attachment tab and attaches the attachment tabs to the underside of the toilet seat. When not attached to the underside of the toilet seat, the bendable urine-deflector has a flat configuration. In order to attach the potty training device to the underside of the toilet seat, it is manipulated into a curved configuration that matches the curvature of the toilet seat, and is attached thereto.
