Patent number: 12371996Abstract: A hollow airfoil body includes a baffle that is arranged in the airfoil body that extends in a radial direction and provides a fluid flow direction. The baffle has multiple holes that include first and second holes that are configured to conduct the cooling airflow in a chordwise direction toward the trailing edge of the airfoil body. The airfoil has a first standoff that extends from the airfoil body to support the baffle. The first axial standoff has a first length that defines an axial passage including the multiple holes. The airfoil includes a second standoff that has a second length less than the first length. The second standoff is arranged radially between the first and second holes. The first hole is smaller than the second hole. The second hole is downstream from the first hole relative to the fluid flow direction.Type: GrantFiled: August 5, 2022Date of Patent: July 29, 2025Assignee: RTX CorporationInventors: Daniel P. Preuss, Dominic J. Mongillo, Jr., Jeremy B. Fredette, Robin Michael Patrick Prenter

Publication number: 20240281073Abstract: A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium is provided that includes instructions that, when executed by a computing device in electronic communication with an extended-reality device controller, cause the computing device to detect, via one or more force sensors of the controller, an input that includes a magnitude of force being applied in a direction generally normal to a plane defined by a portion of a housing of the controller. And the computing device detects a position of the input relative to the plane defined by the portion of the housing. The computing device, based on a determination that the magnitude of force of the input and the position of the input satisfy a positionally-specific predefined force value, causes a haptic feedback to be provided. The haptic feedback is selected from among a set of available haptic feedback events based on both the magnitude of force and the position of the input.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 19, 2024Publication date: August 22, 2024Inventors: Robin Michael Miller, Raymond Louis Nicoli, Chin-Yuan Cheng

Patent number: 11934588Abstract: A method includes, at a controller, sensing a magnitude of a first force applied to the thumbstick in a substantially downward direction relative to a top portion of the housing while the thumbstick is in the stationary default position, and a magnitude of a second force applied to the thumbstick in the substantially downward direction relative to the top portion of the housing while the thumbstick is in a position other than the stationary default position. The method includes receiving the magnitude of the first and the second force, and determining whether the magnitude of the first force or the second force satisfies a predefined force value. The method further includes providing haptic feedback to the user in response to a determination that the magnitude of the first force or the second force satisfies the predefined force value.Type: GrantFiled: February 22, 2022Date of Patent: March 19, 2024Assignee: META PLATFORMS TECHNOLOGIES, LLCInventors: Robin Michael Miller, Raymond Louis Nicoli, Chin Yuan Cheng

Patent number: 11556548Abstract: Systems and methods are provided that automatically process a message input, construct an intelligent query based on the processing of the message input, and provide at least one attachable entity according to the processing results and the intelligent query. In some example aspects, a message is received. A natural language processor to determine if the message is requesting content may then process the message. If the message is determined to be requesting content, then candidate sub-queries may be generated to serve as a training set for a query that will be sent to an external search engine to retrieve the attachable entity. The sub-queries may be ranked in order of relevance and performance score. The highest ranked sub-queries may then be used in the actual query that is fired against the external search engine. The external search engine may search local and remote repositories for the top K most relevant attachable entities and present them to a user for attachment in a reply message.Type: GrantFiled: August 8, 2017Date of Patent: January 17, 2023Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Amy Huyen Phuoc Nguyen, Bhaskar Mitra, Christophe Jacky Henri Van Gysel, Grzegorz Stanislaw Kukla, Lynn Carter Ayres, Mark Rolland Knight, Matteo Venanzi, Nicola Cancedda, Rachel Elizabeth Sirkin, Robin Michael Thomas, Roy Rosemarin, Shobana Balakrishnan, Sri Ramya Mallipudi, Tariq Sharif, Yamin Wang
