  • Publication number: 20220363347
    Abstract: The powered retractable ship ladder replaces the current technology of manually-lowered ship ladders. The powered ladder includes powered extension and retraction, with the added capability of being able to lift a user during ladder retraction. The ladder is formed from a collection of links. The links only permit the ladder to bend in one direction, thus keeping the extended ladder against the side of the ship, rather than swinging toward and away from the ship.

  • Patent number: 11386490
    Abstract: The disclosure describes embodiments of systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable storage media that utilize a machine learning model and a credit value model to generate user interface elements that present credit values and credit value conditions in real time for user accounts. For instance, the disclosed systems can generate an activity score using an activity machine learning model with internal user activity data of a user account. Then, utilizing a credit value model with the activity score and a user activity condition, the disclosed systems can determine a dynamic credit value range for the user account. Indeed, the disclosed systems can display user interface elements with selectable credit values from the dynamic credit value range. Additionally, the disclosed systems can utilize the credit value model to determine and display one or more dynamic credit value conditions for a selected credit value received from the selectable credit values.

  • Patent number: 11214326
    Abstract: A portable conveyance footrest has a support portion having a substantially planar base surface to receive a foot. A tow handle portion is connected to an end of the support portion and forms a substantially planar tow handle that is within a same plane as the substantially planar base surface. The tow handle is spaced apart from the end of the support portion to define a void between the tow handle and the second end of the support portion. The tow handle is disposed within the same plane as the substantially planar base surface so that a user's fingers, when gripping the tow handle, extend into the void between the tow handle and the end of the support portion and through the plane of the substantially planar surface.
