Publication number: 20240071593Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed that provide smart alerts to users, e.g., alerts to users about diabetic states that are only provided when it makes sense to do so, e.g., when the system can predict or estimate that the user is not already cognitively aware of their current condition, e.g., particularly where the current condition is a diabetic state warranting attention. In this way, the alert or alarm is personalized and made particularly effective for that user. Such systems and methods still alert the user when action is necessary, e.g., a bolus or temporary basal rate change, or provide a response to a missed bolus or a need for correction, but do not alert when action is unnecessary, e.g., if the user is already estimated or predicted to be cognitively aware of the diabetic state warranting attention, or if corrective action was already taken.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 24, 2023Publication date: February 29, 2024Inventors: Anna Leigh DAVIS, Scott M.

Patent number: 6840361Abstract: A torque converter clutch solenoid assembly for controlling the converter clutch apply cycle of a General Motors 4L60-E transmission. The present solenoid assembly includes a solenoid snout having a longitudinal bore terminating in a fluid orifice wherein a one-way check valve has been installed to prevent transmission fluid backflow from the torque converter when not operating. The present check valve effectively replaces and performs the function of the original equipment converter clutch signal orifice check valve located in the converter clutch signal circuit, which actuates the torque converter clutch apply valve. The present solenoid assembly precludes the malfunction of the original equipment torque converter clutch apply valve resulting from physical displacement of the original equipment signal orifice check valve under fluid pressure.Type: GrantFiled: May 22, 2003Date of Patent: January 11, 2005Assignee: Sonnax Industries, Inc.Inventor: Scott C. Jackson

Patent number: 6810771Abstract: A replacement overdrive piston retainer for an automatic transmission that rotationally engages and interconnects the reverse drum within the transmission housing to the overdrive clutch assembly, which is mounted on the exterior of the housing is disclosed. An integral hub diameter formed on the present piston retainer provides a plurality of lubrication sites positioned at predetermined angular locations to deliver automatic transmission fluid to the interface of the hub diameter and the reverse drum in timed relation to the rotation of the reverse drum in an amount sufficient to maintain clearance and to minimize premature wear and galling at the interface of the components. In addition, lubrication reservoirs have been integrally formed within the hub diameter in fluid communication with the lubrication sites to improve the flow of automatic transmission fluid through the piston retainer to the mating interface of the hub diameter and the reverse drum.Type: GrantFiled: June 27, 2002Date of Patent: November 2, 2004Assignee: Sonnax Industries, Inc.Inventor: Scott C.

Patent number: 6793053Abstract: A replacement torque converter clutch regulator valve assembly for an automatic transmission that controls clutch apply circuit pressure to the lockup piston within the torque converter clutch is disclosed. The present torque converter clutch regulator valve assembly includes an internal pressure relief valve that regulates clutch apply circuit pressure in the range of 90 to 100 pounds per square inch in comparison to the original equipment manufacture line pressure of 130 to 140 pounds per square inch thereby preventing deflection and malfunction of the lockup piston in operation. The present torque converter clutch regulator valve assembly also includes a modified switch valve having a fluid restricting baffle formed thereon that eliminates the initial spike in clutch apply circuit pressure at the start of each apply cycle to the torque converter clutch, which reduces shudder and provides improved control of the clutch apply and release circuits.Type: GrantFiled: March 21, 2003Date of Patent: September 21, 2004Assignee: Sonnax Industries, Inc.Inventors: Scott C. Jackson, Robert C. Warnke

Patent number: 6776736Abstract: A self-regulating reverse boost valve assembly for installation within the hydraulic pump of an automatic transmission is disclosed. The present reverse boost valve assembly operates in conjunction with the pressure regulator valve to control line pressure generated by the hydraulic pump boosting line pressure in relation to engine torque. The present reverse boost valve assembly includes an internal check valve mechanism that is actuated whenever torque signal fluid pressure (proportional to engine torque) exceeds a predetermined level. When the internal check valve mechanism is actuated, the excess torque signal fluid pressure is diverted via an internal exhaust channel to the transmission sump. Thus, any drastic rise in main line hydraulic pressure or high line pressure in reverse gear, which can result in broken direct clutch drums and/or broken transmission cases, is prevented.Type: GrantFiled: December 18, 2002Date of Patent: August 17, 2004Assignee: Sonnax Industries, Inc.Inventors: Maura Jane Stafford, Scott C.

Patent number: 6712726Abstract: A Lube Regulated Pressure Regulator Valve including an internal check valve that passes transmission fluid from the hydraulic pump in an amount sufficient to fill the torque converter in the Park gear range and at low engine speeds is disclosed. The internal check valve opens at a substantially lower line pressure than is required to open the original equipment manufacture pressure regulator valve to ensure the torque converter is operational at engine startup. As engine speed increases and sufficient line pressure builds up within the torque converter charge circuit, the internal check valve is closed and the pressure regulator valve opens as it would normally to feed line pressure to the torque converter directly. When the engine is shut off, the internal check valve is biased to a closed position preventing automatic transmission fluid from draining back from the torque converter through the pressure regulator valve to the fluid sump.Type: GrantFiled: October 1, 2002Date of Patent: March 30, 2004Assignee: Sonnax Industries, Inc.Inventors: Scott C.

Patent number: 5944627Abstract: A replacement mechanism or servo assembly for applying a band to an input member of an automatic transmission includes a housing in which an apply piston is located and to which an apply pin is connected. The piston is sealably movable in the housing and includes a major piston member having a first distal reaction face and a minor piston member integral with the major piston and having a second distal reaction face. A pressure fluid distribution device applies a working fluid against both of the first distal reaction face and the second distal reaction face in order to move the piston with the resultant force of the pressures on both reaction faces and to cause the apply pin to move toward the band to compress the band about the input member with this resultant force. In a preferred embodiment, the housing further includes a pressure separator immovably disposed between the first distal reaction face and an adjacent second proximal face of the minor piston member.Type: GrantFiled: December 9, 1997Date of Patent: August 31, 1999Assignee: Sonnax Industries, Inc.Inventors: Douglas L.
