  • Patent number: 11947876
    Abstract: A method of modifying a CAD system model performed on a data processing system includes receiving a dataset of co-ordinates representing an article in 2d, or in 3d and receiving 2d or 3d constraints respectively, to be applied to any changes to the dataset of co-ordinates for the article. A modification to be applied to the dataset is received and combined with the relevant 2d and 3d constraints to produce a constrained modification for each of the article and associated article. The constrained modification is solved in 2d and in 3d to determine whether a solution exists in which all constraints are met. If the solve is successful, the constrained modification is applied to each dataset simultaneously and, updated datasets are stored. If the solve fails, the constraints may be reduced and the solve step repeated, or the process is terminated.

  • Publication number: 20240073669
    Abstract: Described herein are systems, devices, methods, and media for connecting a user for providing emergency response assistance to victims and emergency service providers. In some embodiments, a method for automatically populating an incident report includes the steps of: generating a victim code for display at a first electronic device; receiving an emergency data request comprising the victim code from a second electronic device associated with an emergency service provider (ESP) personnel; gathering emergency data associated with the victim code; transmitting the emergency data associated with the victim code to the second electronic device associated with the ESP personnel; and automatically populating, at the second electronic device associated with the ESP personnel, one or more fields of an incident report using the emergency data associated with the victim code.

  • Patent number: 11239507
    Abstract: Lead from lead acid battery scrap is recovered in two separate production streams as clean grid lead and as high-purity lead without smelting. In preferred aspects, lead recovery is performed in a continuous process that uses an aqueous electroprocessing solvent and electro-refining. Spent electroprocessing solvent and/or base utilized to treat lead paste from the lead acid battery scrap can be recycled to the recovery process.

  • Patent number: 10689769
    Abstract: The inventive subject matter is directed to continuous electrochemical production of highly pure micro- or nanostructured lead that at least partially encloses the electroprocessing solvent and molecular hydrogen and optional guest compounds to form a mixed matrix. Such compositions are particularly suitable for cold forming of various structures and/or for alloy and composite material production.

  • Publication number: 20080164427
    Abstract: The present invention relates to components in ion implanters having surfaces adjacent to the path of the ion beam through the ion implanter. Such surfaces will be prone to deposition and the present invention addresses problems associated with delamination of deposited material. An ion implanter component is provided that has a surface defining at least in part an ion beam path through the ion implanter, wherein at least a portion of the surface has been roughened. The portion of the surface may be roughened to provide surface features defined at least in part by sharp changes in orientation of adjacent parts of the surface.
