Patent number: 11953889Abstract: An adapter of a common gateway platform associated with an industrial automation system is described for communicating data acquired from various devices using a data model of the common gateway platform with external components using various data models. The computing device may determine a relationship between datasets of the native data model and datasets of an external component based on obtaining an application programming interface (API) and/or software development kit (SDK) of the external component. Accordingly, the adapter may enable the common gateway platform to interact with the external component by providing functionalities of the external component as native functions of the computing device. That is, the adapter may provide functions to connect, create, read, write, update, delete, run commands and queries, and disconnect from the external component using native commands and actions of the common gateway platform.Type: GrantFiled: May 6, 2021Date of Patent: April 9, 2024Assignee: Rockwell Automation Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Dale A. Hawthorne, Stephen C. Briant, Nicholas J. Marangoni

Patent number: 11822981Abstract: Systems, methods, and software disclosed herein relate to a common gateway platform system. In an implementation, program instructions direct a computing system to execute a common gateway platform environment comprising an adapter comprising an adapter name identification, a broker connected to the adapter, and an application connected to the adapter. The application also generates an action configured according to a common gateway platform protocol, transmit the action to the broker, and receive a reaction from the broker. The broker is configured to identify the adapter based on the adapter identifier and transmit the action to the adapter. The broker also receives the reaction from the adapter and transmit the reaction to the application. The adapter is configured to acquire the data from the industrial automation environment based on an adapter instruction in the action, generate the reaction comprising the acquired data, and transmit the reaction to the broker.Type: GrantFiled: January 18, 2022Date of Patent: November 21, 2023Assignee: Rockwell Automation Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Douglas J. Reichard, Nicholas J. Marangoni, Stephen C. Briant, Sonal R. Dubey, Sharath Chander Reddy Baddam, Paul C. Whitten, Deepa S. Bekal

Patent number: 11816312Abstract: Techniques to facilitate interactions with industrial devices in an industrial automation environment are disclosed herein. In at least one implementation, a realtime communication connection is established through a common gateway platform to an industrial controller. A realtime notification message is received comprising industrial data and display instructions encoded into a text string generated by the industrial controller, the display instructions comprising display properties for the industrial data that specify how to display the industrial data on a computing device. The text string is processed to generate and render a display of the industrial data for display on the computing device according to the display properties provided in the display instructions.Type: GrantFiled: January 10, 2022Date of Patent: November 14, 2023Assignee: Rockwell Automation Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Douglas J. Reichard, Sharath Chander Reddy Baddam, Deepa S. Bekal, Nicholas J. Marangoni, Ike C. Mao, Dan W. Guendelsberger, Brian J. Gelly
