Patent number: 10572892Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for evaluating a transaction concluded at a POS (point of sale) device. Prices for competitive retail stores within a geographic region of the POS may be evaluated after concluding a transaction. Price differences between items and corresponding prices in the third party data are identified. Where the purchase price exceeds the corresponding third-party price, a credit is assigned to the customer, such as in the form of a gift card or code that may be redeemed in a subsequent transaction. Credits may also be assigned to a debit card associated with a user, either with or without applying some multiplier. A credit may be applied to an online transaction of the user. Based on the use of the credit, the user's in-store purchases and online purchases may be related to the same individual and used to better characterize interests of the user.Type: GrantFiled: May 30, 2014Date of Patent: February 25, 2020Assignee: WALMART APOLLO, LLCInventors: Joseph Y. Wang, Venkata Syam Prakash Rapaka, Vivek Parekh, Paul Kay Hatch, Ronald G. Benson, Nella Shapiro

Patent number: 10438228Abstract: A method and system for providing a consumer comparative pricing data from at least two merchants is discussed. In one aspect of the invention a customer queries a database containing time and location specific pricing data for competitors of a first merchant. If the query shows that the customer could have purchased the same item or items for a lower price at a competitor, the first merchant awards the customer an on-line credit that is redeemable at the merchant. In another aspect, a consumer uploads an image of a competitor's receipt. The item specific data on the receipt is converted to UPC codes on an item-by-item basis. These UPC codes are then compared against the merchant's pricing database and the consumer is provided data set comparing the prices the consumer paid to the prices the consumer would have paid had the consumer shopped at the merchant.Type: GrantFiled: May 30, 2014Date of Patent: October 8, 2019Assignee: Walmart Apollo, LLCInventors: Joseph Y.

Publication number: 20160305270Abstract: The off-shore gas turbine system comprises a floating structure with at least one deck and a baseplate mounted on the deck. The baseplate supports a gas turbine having: a low pressure compressor, a high pressure compressor, a combustor, a high pressure turbine, an intermediate pressure turbine and a low pressure turbine. The low pressure compressor is driven into rotation by the intermediate pressure turbine and the high pressure compressor is driven by the high pressure turbine. The low pressure turbine has a load coupling. The system further comprises a driven equipment mechanically connected to the load coupling of the low pressure turbine and driven into rotation by the low pressure turbine. An intercooler is provided between the low pressure compressor and the high pressure compressor. The baseplate is supported on the deck separately from the intercooler.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 5, 2014Publication date: October 20, 2016Inventors: Daniele MARCUCCI, Massimo CARMIGNANI, Francesco CAPANNI, Ian Paul KAY, Paolo BIANCHI

Patent number: 7544144Abstract: A geared disk driven by a repositionable drive gear, with two independent and concurrent axes of rotation; both axes rotating and orbiting on one plane, about the transmission's central axis. The first axis of rotation being the gear's center. The second user-actuated axis of rotation concurrently varying its motive pivot point between the disk's center and edge, while concentrically transversing around the disk, to infinitely variably swing the disk gear. This variable swing motion is mechanically extracted and cycled through the transmission to progressively compound the combined motions to modify and sustain user-selected, infinitely variable, output speeds. Two interconnecting, clutch-free, geared-neutral, bidirectional, output mechanisms are included; one integrated within the transmission, and one separated from the transmission, to produce a continuously engaged, all-geared, complete range of transmission functions.Type: GrantFiled: August 22, 2005Date of Patent: June 9, 2009Inventor: Paul Kay Coronel
