  • Patent number: 12216797
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described for managing personal data on a client computer, in which personal data associated with the client computer is identified by a policy management module. An analysis may be performed for the client computer by a server using fake personal data. To identify applications which may attempt to access the personal data, the fake personal data is tracked for access on the client computer. A policy is then created that disallows access of the personal data by any applications identified by the analysis of the client computer as accessing the fake personal data. The policy is then assigned to the client computer.

  • Patent number: 12215829
    Abstract: A hydrogen fuel coupling system may include a hydrogen fuel tank and a hydrogen fuel supply connector. The tank has a first connector, and a second connector disposed around the first connector. The second connector has a boil-off inlet port for receiving gaseous hydrogen from the tank. The hydrogen fuel supply connector may include a hydrogen fuel transfer line, a third connector for operably sealably connecting the transfer line to a first connector of the tank for supplying liquid hydrogen, and a shroud extending around the third connector and the transfer line defining a gap therebetween. A fourth connector operably sealably connects a first end of the shroud to a second connector of the tank. A second end of the shroud is operably sealably engageable with the transfer line. A boil-off vent is connected to the shroud for venting gas from the gap.

  • Publication number: 20250022277
    Abstract: A system for networked occupancy detection and prediction is disclosed. The system may include two or more modular control units configured to be communicatively coupled to each other, each modular control unit configured to define a detection zone and control power to at least one load device, which may include a device control assembly configured to be removably coupled to a backplate. The device control assembly may include an occupancy sensor configured to detect a current occupancy state of a detection zone. The device control assembly may be configured to determine occupancy routines based on historical occupancy states of the detection zone and to predict future occupancy states. The device control assembly may be configured to control the power to the at least one load device based on the predicted future occupancy states.

  • Publication number: 20240174824
    Abstract: An uncured or partially cured, flexible fusion bonded epoxy (“FBE”) film for application to a metal substrate, such as an oil and gas pipeline pipe and pipeline pipe weld areas includes an epoxy resin, a curing agent, accelerator, filler, and optional additives. The epoxy can include a blend of solid epoxy resin and liquid epoxy resin. Also included are methods of applying the FBE film to pipe in the shop and on field joints. Methods also include using a flexible, electric heat blanket or heat belt to cure FBE film and epoxy liquid coatings on field joints.

  • Patent number: 11005289
    Abstract: An uninterruptible power supply for providing an output power signal to a load comprises a ferroresonant transformer, a resonant capacitor, and an inverter. The resonant capacitor is operatively connected to the ferroresonant transformer. The inverter is operatively connected to the ferroresonant transformer. The inverter is configured to generate the output power signal based on at least one inverter control signal such that the output power signal is a quasi square wave having at least one change of phase and an upper limit. The at least one inverter control signal is held in an OFF state during at least a portion of the at least one change of phase, pulse-width modulated during at least a portion of the at least one change of phase, and held in an ON state when the output power signal is at the upper limit.

  • Patent number: 10592869
    Abstract: Methods and structure for presenting and analyzing schedule data. One exemplary embodiment is a system that includes an interface and a controller. The controller is able to identify a schedule comprising multiple events occurring over a length of time, to select a cyclic period within the length of time, and to generate a representation of the length of time as a view of a three dimensional (3D) helix wherein each revolution of the 3D helix corresponds with an iteration of the cyclic period. The controller is also able to determine an event location for each of the events along a path defined by the 3D helix, and to direct the interface to transmit instructions for presenting the 3D helix and the event locations via a display.
