Patent number: 11884363Abstract: An individual chain wheel for a bicycle front crank arrangement for engaging in a drive chain includes a plurality of teeth formed on a circumference of the chain wheel and having a first and a second group of teeth. The teeth of the second group of teeth are arranged in an alternating manner between the teeth of the first group of teeth. Each tooth has a load flank via which force is transmitted between an adjacent roller of the drive chain and the respective tooth. Each tooth of the first group may also have at least one profile with an opening in the vicinity of the flank, in which a portion of an inner link plate of the drive chain, which portion protrudes beyond the roller, engages.Type: GrantFiled: December 6, 2021Date of Patent: January 30, 2024Assignee: SRAM DEUTSCHLAND GmbHInventors: Markus Reiter, Joachim Hanke, Bryn Johnson, Andreas Vonend, Martin Kehrer, Henrik Braedt, Pedro Miguel Nunes Dos Santos, Luis Figueiredo, Rodrigo Antunes

Publication number: 20230306967Abstract: A computer implemented platform with the responsibility of handling complex tasks provided by users via a natural input interface (voice, text, image, among others). This platform design is based on the principle of full scalability, ambient and context awareness and with multi-domain extensible capability. The proposed computer-implemented system ensures the handling of input data provided by users via natural input interfaces, comprising a set of layers arranged in a modular and loosely coupled architecture, wherein the set of layers are adapted to interpret and manage several types of contextual information from the user input data, while permanently improving decisioning and response times, enabling increasingly complex interactions with the user.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 30, 2022Publication date: September 28, 2023Inventors: Carlos Filipe LOPES TORRAO, Carolina Pimentel FERNANDES MAIO, Bruno SOUSA ROSA CRUZ FERNANDES, Joao Miguel NUNES FERREIRA, Jorge Filipe PINTO SEQUEIRA DOS SANTOS GRACA

Publication number: 20220198050Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices are described herein to query data in an entity data database. A query for information about a set of entities is received from a requesting system. The query is in a predefined format and includes search conditions. A querying strategy is determined based on the received query. The entity data database is queried by identifying a set of user records that fulfill a first search condition. A numerical value of the set of user records is next compared to a threshold. Depending on the numerical value, the set of user records is assigned to a first numerical bucket. Depending on the bucket, the numerical value is changed to a second numerical value, which is used to generate an aggregated count value. The aggregated count value is shared with the requesting system.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 15, 2021Publication date: June 23, 2022Applicant: Apple Inc.Inventors: Deima Elnatour, Elli Shapiro, Muhammad Mohsin K. Niazi, Michael B. Wood, Brandon J. Van Ryswyk, Paul A. Youngblood, Daniela S. Antonova, Andrew M. Bennett, Alex B. McLaughlin, Sebastien P. Sahuc, Cristian B. Opris, Miguel Nunes De Miranda
