  • Publication number: 20250044823
    Abstract: A brake lever end cap includes an elongated leg portion in which at least a portion of the brake lever is seated, and a foot portion joined to the leg portion and an end of the leg portion. The leg portion has a lower durometer value that the foot portion to help absorb the energy of an impact and prevent the end of the brake lever from passing through the foot portion.

  • Publication number: 20230397047
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for alleviating congestion of data traffic in a wireless network in a cell site. The methods determine congestion levels for respective data connections from mobile computing devices to a network through a cell tower in a cell site. The method further determines a congestion level associated with the cell site based on a weighted aggregate of varying congestion levels associated with the respective data connections in the cell site. The disclosed technology includes flow policies associated with congestion levels. The flow policies determine weights used for determining the weighted aggregate and maximum network bandwidth enforced for the respective data connections. The disclosed technology identifies data connections that consume abnormally high amount of network bandwidth and throttles with bias against data traffic associated with these data connections with heavy traffic.

  • Patent number: 11618526
    Abstract: A brake lever end cap includes an elongated leg portion in which at least a portion of the brake lever is seated, and a foot portion joined to the leg portion and an end of the leg portion. The leg portion is joined to the foot portion such that the end of the leg portion joined to the foot portion is off center relative to the foot portion, and nearer the rear of the foot portion such that the majority of the foot portion extends forward of the leg portion.

  • Patent number: 11378953
    Abstract: Autoscrubbers are capable of being operated in a manual (e.g. walk-behind) mode and an autonomous (operator free) mode and capable of switching between such operational modes. Apparatus and methods for steering such autoscrubbers use steering torque mechanisms to apply steering torques independently to left and right drive wheels. Steering systems for autonomous operation may be retrofit onto existing walk-behind autoscrubbers to implement this functionality. The autonomous control capability may not detract appreciably from an operator's ability to use the autoscrubber in a manual (walk-behind) mode.

  • Patent number: 10325520
    Abstract: Simulated padlock devices and associated training devices are provided, which allow simulated forcible entry of padlocks using cutting or lock breaking devices. For example, a simulated padlock includes first and second metallic plates, a u-shaped metallic rod, and connecting elements (such as threaded bolts) to connect the first and second metallic plates together with end portions of the u-shaped metallic rod secured between the first and second plates by compressive forces applied from connecting the first and second metallic plates together using the connecting elements. The u-shaped metallic rod is configured to simulate a shackle of the simulated padlock device. The first and second metallic plates, which are connected together with the end portions of the u-shaped metallic rod secured there between, are configured to simulate a lock body of the simulated padlock device with the simulated padlock device in a simulated locked state.
