Patent number: 12060038Abstract: A trailer door system that comprises at least one trailer door assembly operably engaged with the trailer; and at least one driving assembly operably engaged with the trailer and the at least one trailer door assembly. The at least one driving assembly further comprises an expansion assembly operably engaged with the at least one trailer door assembly. The at least one driving assembly further comprises a rotary actuator operably engaged with the expansion assembly, wherein the rotary actuator is configured to transition the expansion assembly between a collapsed position and an expanded position for pivoting the at least one trailer door assembly between a closed position and an opened position about an axis parallel to a vertical axis defined by the trailer. A trailer monitoring system may be included with the trailer door system for automating the state of the trailer during a towing operation.Type: GrantFiled: November 30, 2021Date of Patent: August 13, 2024Assignee: Jarrett Companies, Inc.Inventors: Abram Lee Fuller, Christopher Lee Indermuhle, W.

Patent number: 9858415Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products are provided for recovering from false positives of malware detection. Malware signatures that are defective may be causing false positives during software scanning for malware. Such defective malware signatures may be detected (e.g., by user feedback, etc.) and revoked. Computers that are using the malware signatures to detect malware may be notified of the revoked signatures, and may be enabled to re-scan content identified as containing malware using malware signatures that do not include the revoked malware signatures. As such, if the content is determined during the re-scan to not be infected, the content may be re-enabled for usage on the computer (e.g., may be restored from quarantine storage).Type: GrantFiled: June 16, 2011Date of Patent: January 2, 2018Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Michael Jarrett, Vishal Kapoor, Charles Turner, Joseph Johnson, Jason J. Joyce
