  • Patent number: 11921795
    Abstract: A data ingestion system normalizes ingested documents and extracts data based on a template that is applied to the documents. In an aspect, the system accesses a document of a document type and determines a template to apply to the document. The system normalizes the document, extracts data values from the document based at least in part on the template, and generates structured data based at least partly on the extracted data.

  • Patent number: 11576293
    Abstract: A calibration block provides a deck with a slot for receiving a first plate for supporting a distal end of the planter unit when setting its gauge wheels, whereby the first plate is flush with the deck at a predefine distance from the soil. The calibration block also provides a gauge block and associated second plate for increasing the predefined distance.

  • Publication number: 20220000004
    Abstract: A calibration block dimensioned and adapted to set a consistent, repeatable furrow depth for planter units. The calibration block provides a deck with a slot for receiving a first plate for supporting a distal end of the planter unit when setting its gauge wheels, whereby the first plate is flush with the deck at a predefine distance from the soil. The calibration block also provides a gauge block and associated second plate for increasing the predefined distance, if the user so desires.

  • Patent number: 10402358
    Abstract: A system and approach for addressing modules on a platform bus that may incorporate a master module and one or more slave modules. The platform bus may run through sub-base connectors that interlock modules together on a rail. Addressing of the modules may occur automatically and dynamically in that the master module may have a first address by default, and a first slave module adjoining the master module may be assigned a second address. A second slave module adjoining the first slave module, if there is one, may be assigned a third address. Each of the other slave modules, adjoining a preceding slave module assigned an address, may be assigned a next address after an address assigned to a preceding slave module. Addresses may be assigned in a numerical order to each module based on a physical position of the respective module on a rail.

  • Patent number: 10288286
    Abstract: A modular flame amplifier system having a base module, a burner control and one or more flame amplifier modules connected to the burner control. One or more sensors may be connected to the one or more flame amplifier modules. Some of the flame amplifiers may be a long distance from the burner control module. Some of the flame amplifiers may be connected to the burner control via a cable. The connection between some of the flame amplifiers and the respective sensors may be less noise tolerant than the long cable connection between the one or more flame amplifiers and the burner control. One or more flame amplifiers may be mounted on the same rail as the burner control or another rail remote from the burner control. Two or more sensors may be connected in one or more of several configurations along with delay in some configurations.

  • Publication number: 20160091903
    Abstract: An integrating system incorporating a programmable logic module, input/output (I/O) modules connected to the programmable logic module, and safety device modules connected to the programmable logic module. The modules may be connected with one another with connectors on each module. The modules may talk to each other via a common communication protocol carried by wires in the connectors. The programmable logic module may monitor and/or control signals on input and output terminals of the I/O modules that are connected to the actuators and sensors in controlled equipment. The programmable logic module may control non-safety aspects of the safety devices and inputs and outputs of the safety device modules and be modeled and appear in a same context as the signals of the input and output terminals of the I/O modules. A programmable display may be incorporated by the integrating system.

  • Publication number: 20160091204
    Abstract: A system and approach for a programmable display. The system may incorporate a display designed to operate a combustion control mechanism, dedicated purpose devices having a status represented by a set of defined data items referred to as registers, programmable behavior logic designed by a customer, other registers created by the customer to provide data generated by the programmable behavior logic, and a standard interface for serving the other registers to the display. The standard interface may be a protocol used by a web server. The web server may receive requests for data from a client and provide responses to the requests from the client. The customer, by data from the programmable logic, may control content, appearance or behavior of one or more objects on the display. The objects may send altered values to registers for operating the combustion control mechanism.

  • Patent number: 9242262
    Abstract: A body spray configured to be supported within a shower wall. The body spray includes an outer housing and an inner waterway supporting a sprayhead for axial movement relative to the outer housing. Water pressure against the inner waterway causes the sprayhead to move axially outwardly from a refracted position to an extended position.
