Patent number: 11662062Abstract: A cryogenic energy storage system comprises at least one cryogenic fluid storage tank having an output; a primary conduit through which a stream of cryogenic fluid may flow from the output of the fluid storage tank to an exhaust; a pump within the primary conduit downstream of the output of the tank for pressurising the cryogenic fluid stream; evaporative means within the primary conduit downstream of the pump for vaporising the pressurised cryogenic fluid stream; at least one expansion stage within the primary conduit downstream of the evaporative means for expanding the vaporised cryogenic fluid stream and for extracting work therefrom; a secondary conduit configured to divert at least a portion of the cryogenic fluid stream from the primary conduit and reintroduce it to the fluid storage tank; and pressure control means within the secondary conduit for controlling the flow of the diverted cryogenic fluid stream and thereby controlling the pressure within the tank.Type: GrantFiled: March 22, 2021Date of Patent: May 30, 2023Assignee: Highview Enterprises LimitedInventors: Richard Riley, Miriam Zubizarreta, Nicola Castellucci, Paul Currie

Patent number: 11552952Abstract: A method and system for initiating message listening and routing message content to authorized user devices is disclosed. For a second user device to receive notifications regarding records of a first user, the second user device provides information identifying the first user to a notification service. The notification service verifies the identifying information. The notification service initiates one or more listeners to listen for messages flowing over a messaging bus that are relating to the first user. Once a message is identified, at least a portion of the message is used to generate a notification that may be sent to the second user device.Type: GrantFiled: December 31, 2019Date of Patent: January 10, 2023Assignee: C/HCA, Inc.Inventors: Gabriel O. Perez, Michael A. Houston, David Fowler, Milind Madhukar Borkar, Thomas Andrew Doyle, Alan Scott, William Michael Gregg, Jim Najib Jirjis, Jonathan Perlin, Paul Martin Paslick, Paul Currie

Patent number: 11451622Abstract: Systems, methods, and machine-readable media for process-performing resources and process specifications particularized to loads are provided. A provisional electronic composite for a load may be created. A type of process-performing resource may be identified. Performance data may be accessed to identify a process-performance duration that corresponds to a process type, the type of process-performing resource, process-performance locations, and process-performance times. A process-assignment duration may be defined, and an availability of a process-performing resource may be detected. A performance time may be determined based on the availability of the process-performing resource. Instruction to perform the process at the performance time may transmitted to at least one resource-controlling device. The provisional electronic composite for the load may be modified based on the performance time and the instruction to form an updated electronic composite.Type: GrantFiled: October 21, 2020Date of Patent: September 20, 2022Assignee: C/HCA, Inc.Inventors: Gabriel O. Perez, Michael A. Houston, Alan Scott, Ryan Staggs, Tim Dunnington, Paul Currie
