Publication number: 20240076123Abstract: A sanitary product disposal container includes a container housing having a movable housing top cover. A cover hinge assembly allows the top cover to pivot between open and closed positions. Accordingly, a used feminine hygiene product may be placed in the interior space of the container housing in the open position of the housing top cover while minimizing touching the container housing to open the housing top cover. The housing may be selectively opened to facilitate removal of the used feminine hygiene products from the interior space all without exposure to the used products or the escape of unpleasant odors.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 5, 2023Publication date: March 7, 2024Inventors: Richard R. Bing, Megan Kathryn Helms, David Steven Mesko, Emily Yeager, Pil Ho Chung, Joshua Meador, Marco Perry, Brooke Williams

Patent number: 11775435Abstract: To deliver up-to-date, coherent user data to applications upon request, the disclosed technology includes systems and methods for caching data and metadata after it has been synchronously loaded—for future retrieval with a page load time close to zero milliseconds. To provide this experience, data needs to be stored as locally to a user as possible, in the cache on the local device or in an edge cache located geographically nearby, for use in responding to requests. Applications which maintain caches of API results can be notified of their invalidation, and can detect the invalidation, propagate the invalidation to any further client tiers with the appropriate derivative type mapping, and refresh their cached values so that clients need not synchronously make the API requests again—ensuring that the client has access to the most up-to-date copy of data as inexpensively as possible—in terms of bandwidth and latency.Type: GrantFiled: December 7, 2021Date of Patent: October 3, 2023Assignee: Salesforce, Inc.Inventor: Richard Perry Pack, III

Publication number: 20230092528Abstract: An ultra-low profile coaxial cable connector (i.e. plug) is provided that implements a lateral coupling of a coaxial cable inner conductor and center pin of a mating PCB-mounted coaxial receptacle. The overall height of a mating coaxial receptacle center pin is also reduced by way of a cutout in the receptacle ground ring as well as a cutout in a mating outer shell of the coaxial cable connector. The ultra-low profile coaxial cable connector achieves a reduction in mated height of less than 1.0 mm for both 1.13 mm diameter and 0.81 mm diameter coaxial cables. In both cases, the coaxial cable connector designs as discussed herein enable a further reduction in the total thickness of communication module boards to 1.25 mm, thereby meeting the high demands for thinner electronic device designs.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 14, 2021Publication date: March 23, 2023Inventors: Richard Perry, Robert Schum

Publication number: 20220166166Abstract: Disclosed embodiments include a modified M.2 interface that is configured to allow an increased current capacity on power-carrying pins. The power-carrying pins are implemented using an alloy that can sustain current levels in excess of those specified in the M.2 standard while remaining within M.2 standard specified temperature limits. Sockets and corresponding cards in embodiments are modified so that a card requiring the higher current capacity cannot fit into a legacy M.2 standard socket, while a legacy M.2 card can fit into a modified high current M.2 socket. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 22, 2021Publication date: May 26, 2022Inventors: Richard Perry, Robert Schum, Mythili Hegde

Patent number: 11054262Abstract: A method for improving the accuracy of an inertial navigation system (INS) by performing a synchronization procedure to align the INS to a compass-derived initial heading comprises the steps of determining a heading of minimal error for the compass and defining that heading as the initial heading; orienting the INS to align with the so-defined initial heading; synchronizing the internal navigation system to that heading; and proceeding with navigation by use of the INS. The INS may be vehicle mounted or be contained in a portable navigation unit for swimmers or other users. The heading of minimal error may be determined by placing the compass within a multi-axis Helmholz coil system and monitoring compass readings and deviation errors as a function of actual compass positions.Type: GrantFiled: April 2, 2019Date of Patent: July 6, 2021Assignee: STIDD Systems, Inc.Inventor: Richard Perry

Patent number: 10938084Abstract: Techniques are disclosed to remedy thermal issues associated with antenna systems. These techniques include implementing heat pipes coupled between an external mast having antenna circuitry mounted thereon and an internal heatsink inside an environmentally-controlled location. This configuration thermally regulates heat associated with active antennas mounted to the mast, which is externally mounted onto the roof of a vehicle. The heat pipes carry heat from the mast down through the roof to the internal heatsink. The aspects described herein allow for car manufacturers to integrate mmWave technology into their vehicles while avoiding large and unsightly cooling mechanisms that would otherwise adversely impact aerodynamics and fuel efficiency.Type: GrantFiled: December 7, 2018Date of Patent: March 2, 2021Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: Shallu Bhalla, Daniel Cox, Bhagyashree S.
