Patent number: 11921393Abstract: Stable, macroscopic single-crystal chiral liquid crystal compositions are described. The compositions include a single-crystal chiral liquid crystal material on a patterned surface. The patterned surface seeds a particular crystallographic orientation at the substrate-liquid crystal interface. Also described are methods of forming the single-crystal chiral liquid crystal compositions.Type: GrantFiled: March 8, 2021Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignee: The University of ChicagoInventors: Juan Jose de Pablo, Paul Franklin Nealey, Xiao Li, Jose A. Martinez-Gonzalez, Monirosadat Sadati, Rui Zhang, Ye Zhou

Patent number: 11888823Abstract: Systems, methods, and software can be used for securing in-tunnel messages. One example of a method includes establishing a tunneling connection between a server and an endpoint. The method further includes receiving a packet from the server over the tunneling connection. The method yet further includes determining that the packet comprises a tunneling control message based on at least one address in the packet. Based on the determination of a received packet comprising a tunneling control message, the method can ensure the security of in-tunnel messages based on an indication in the tunneling control message.Type: GrantFiled: April 15, 2021Date of Patent: January 30, 2024Assignee: BlackBerry LimitedInventors: Bradford Lawrence Spencer, Yu Tang, Paul Franklin Medynski, Shiladitya Sircar, Christopher Donald MacDonald

Patent number: 11844429Abstract: A cabinet storage system for a cabinet includes a base and a pair of slides. Each of the slides includes a face frame lip standoff extending from a front edge of a respective slide to align the cabinet storage system in a bottom of the cabinet. A bracket may be coupled with each respective slide, the bracket includes a face frame bracket positioned to extend beyond the front edge of the respective slide and the face frame lip. The face frame bracket is available to couple a cabinet front to the cabinet storage system. A slidable portion of each of the slides may include front ears and rear ears. The front ears include apertures to receive a first fastener coupled with the base, and the rear ears including an alignment notch to guide the base into alignment with a respective slide using a second fastener coupled with the base.Type: GrantFiled: January 18, 2022Date of Patent: December 19, 2023Assignee: REV-A-SHELF COMPANY, LLCInventors: Leeman Elliot Stevens, Paul Franklin Chambers, Kevin M.

Publication number: 20230248146Abstract: A cabinet shelving system includes a first set of shelves and a second set of shelves each having an upper shelf. The first and second set of shelves may be mounted on a cabinet mounting frame. The cabinet mounting frame may be installed in an interior cavity of a cabinet. The cabinet mounting frame may be used to slide the second set of shelves within the interior cavity while the first set of shelves is outside the interior cavity. Each of the first set of shelves and the second set of shelves may be independent slid, using a pair of slide out slides, between inside and outside of the interior cavity. The upper shelf of the first set of shelves and the second set of shelves may slide from outside to inside the interior cavity independent of movement of the first shelf frame and the second shelf frame, respectively.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 16, 2022Publication date: August 10, 2023Applicant: Rev-A-Shelf Company, LLCInventor: Paul Franklin Chambers

Patent number: 11659926Abstract: A cabinet storage system includes a base and a pair of slides. The base includes a first planar surface and a second planar surface. The first and second planar surfaces are opposing surfaces of the base and define a perimeter of the base. The pair of slides are coupled with the first planar surface. The system also includes fences positioned away from the second planar surface around the perimeter of the base, and structural columns mechanically coupled with the base. The structural columns are positioned to abut the second planar surface and longitudinally extending away from the second planar surface to rigidly maintain the fences around the perimeter of the base.Type: GrantFiled: January 18, 2021Date of Patent: May 30, 2023Assignee: REV-A-SHELF COMPANY, LLCInventors: Leeman Elliot Stevens, Paul Franklin Chambers, Kevin M.

Patent number: 11070038Abstract: A cabinet system may include a storage container mountable in a cabinet to be movable between being extended out of the cabinet, and being disposed inside the cabinet. The system may include a pair of slide members, and a power connection point. The slide members may slidably connect the storage container and the cabinet. The power connection point includes a cover and an electric outlet. The cover is moveable between a closed position where the electric outlet is inaccessible by a power plug, and an open position where the electric outlet is accessible by the power plug. Slidable movement of the storage container to move the power connection point from outside to inside the cabinet is denied due the cover, in the open position, extending away from the storage container.Type: GrantFiled: May 24, 2019Date of Patent: July 20, 2021Assignee: REV-A-SHELF COMPANY, LLCInventors: Paul Franklin Chambers, Kevin M.

Patent number: 10755942Abstract: Disclosed is a method for the fabrication of polymeric topcoat via initiated chemical vapor deposition (iCVD) or photoinitiated chemical vapor deposition (piCVD) in conjunction with directed self-assembly (DSA) of block copolymers to generate high resolution patterns. A topcoat deposited by iCVD or piCVD allows for conformal, ultra-thin, uniform, pinhole-free coatings. iCVD or piCVD topcoat enables the use of a diversity of block copolymer (BCP) materials for DSA and facilitates the direct and seamless integration of the topcoats for a pattern transfer process.Type: GrantFiled: August 24, 2017Date of Patent: August 25, 2020Assignees: Massachusetts Institute of Technology, University of ChicagoInventors: Do Han Kim, Hyo Seon Suh, Priya Moni, Karen K.

Publication number: 20200064008Abstract: A single-package, wall-mount air conditioner is provided with an economizer unit having a pair of vertical conduits for delivering fresh outside air to a pair of blowers and a damper system that can be selectively positioned to open and close the conduits. The damper system also opens and closes return air recirculation openings through which return air is delivered to the blowers. When the air conditioner is operating in an economizer cooling mode, the return air recirculation openings are partially or completely closed and some or all of the return air is discharged outwardly and upwardly from the air conditioner in a manner to impede any entrainment of the discharged return air with the fresh outside air that is entering the air conditioner.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 31, 2019Publication date: February 27, 2020Inventors: Thompson Joshua MATAMBO, Paul Franklin FAY, William James WILSON, Vikas Dhummi CHANDRASHEKAR

Patent number: 10430400Abstract: Approaches for synchronizing data files across multiple systems are described. A user-specified value of a threshold indicative of a quantity of data is input to a computer processor and stored in processor-readable memory on one of the systems. A set of files of the replicated files that are unsynchronized between the one system and another system of the systems is determined, along with a quantity of data to be synchronized for the set of files. The files in the set of files are synchronized between the one system and the other system in response to the quantity of data to be synchronized satisfying the value of the threshold. Fewer than all of the set of files are synchronized in response to the quantity of data to be synchronized not satisfying the threshold.Type: GrantFiled: May 19, 2015Date of Patent: October 1, 2019Assignee: IOnU Security, Inc.Inventors: David W. Bennett, Paul Franklin Vernon, II, Timothy E. Beres
