Patent number: 11908323Abstract: An apparatus for monitoring a network communication system onboard a vehicle comprises a network interface and control circuitry. The control circuitry is configured to obtain location data indicating geographic locations of a plurality of vehicles within a geographic area, generate a first interface comprising a first portion and a second portion, and generate first graphical interface data within the first portion of the first interface. The first graphical interface data represents a map of the geographic area and a plurality of vehicle icons. Each of the plurality of vehicle icons is selectable via user input and at a position on the map corresponding to a respective geographic location of one of the plurality of vehicles. The control circuitry is further configured to generate second graphical interface data within the second portion of the first interface. The second graphical interface data represents vehicle identifiers for the plurality of vehicles.Type: GrantFiled: September 19, 2022Date of Patent: February 20, 2024Assignee: VIASAT, INC.Inventor: Richard G Walsh

Patent number: 11463337Abstract: Systems and methods for timeline representations of trip phases of a mobile vehicle are described. A method may include receiving operational events associated with a voyage of the mobile vehicle. The operational events may include events such as take-off, landing, door open, door closed, engine started, or other types of operational events. Each operational event may have a corresponding event time at which the event occurred or was detected. The method may include receiving network metric values for network communication metrics associated with a network service on the mobile vehicle. Each network metric value may have a corresponding value time at which the metric was measured or detected. The operational events and network communication metrics may be displayed in a time-aligned manner on a timeline representation over a time range indicated by a user.Type: GrantFiled: August 10, 2020Date of Patent: October 4, 2022Assignee: ViaSat, Inc.Inventor: Richard G.

Patent number: 9701524Abstract: A system for moving a shelving system includes a lifting system that is operable to engage a section of a shelving system with a lifting element and to move the section of the shelving system upwardly or downwardly relative to a ground surface. The system also employs a moving device that is positionable between the shelving-system section and the ground surface when the lifting device moves the shelving-system section upwardly. The moving device also receives the section of shelving system onto a receiving area when the lifting device lowers the shelving-system section. The at least one movement component allows the at least one moving element to move relative to the ground surface. A lifting system for lifting a shelving system may include a jack and a lifting bracket that couples operation of the jack to upward or downward movement of the shelving-system section.Type: GrantFiled: August 29, 2014Date of Patent: July 11, 2017Assignee: Gondola TrainInventor: Richard G.

Patent number: 4303239Abstract: The present invention provides a totally adjustable thigh muscle exercise device. The device is totally independent of any other exercise device or structure, is constructed to provide exercise to both the flexor and extensor thigh muscles, and is adjustable as to size, weight and weight location on the thighs so that a single device may be utilized by any user at any amount of weight and for any type of thigh exercise. The device includes a belt, which may be adjusted to any user's waist size and weights suspended from the belt for location at the front of the user's thighs. In preferred embodiments, the location of the weights along the front of the device may be adjusted to accommodate the individual user's needs and the amount of weight may be easily varied. In preferred embodiments, the space between the belt and the weights may also be adjusted to further accommodate the user or the particular exercise being practiced.Type: GrantFiled: September 27, 1978Date of Patent: December 1, 1981Inventor: Richard G.
