  • Publication number: 20240137248
    Abstract: A system and method for providing on-demand edge compute. The system may include an orchestrator that provides a UI and that controls an abstraction layer for implementing a workflow for providing on-demand edge compute. The abstraction layer may include a server configuration orchestration (SCO) system (e.g., a Metal-as-a-Service (MaaS) system) and API that may provide an interface between the orchestrator and the SCO. The API may enable the orchestrator to communicate with the SCO for receiving requests that enable the SCO to integrate with existing compute resources to perform various compute provisioning tasks (e.g., to build and provision a server instance). The various tasks, when executed, may provide on-demand edge compute service to users. The SCO API may further enable the ECS orchestrator to receive information from the SCO (e.g., compute resource information, status messages).

  • Patent number: 11264740
    Abstract: A battery post terminal assembly includes a conductive band and a clamp mechanism. The conductive band includes a first free end and a second free end. The conductive band defines an aperture for receiving a battery post of a battery. The clamp mechanism includes a wedge member that defines a recess between a first surface and a second surface thereof. The recess has an open end and a closed end that is narrower than the open end. The first surface is convex. The first free end and the second free end are positioned in the recess. The first free end is movable along the first surface toward the closed end to be moved by the first surface toward the second free end to tighten the conductive band around the battery post.

  • Publication number: 20200378209
    Abstract: A cement head is disclosed that includes a cement head body that houses a moveable cage which protects a cement plug until the cement plug is released into a cement flow path. The cage is moveable between a first position in which cement slurry flows around the cage, and a second position in which cement slurry flows through the cage to facilitate launch of the cement plug into a wellbore. The cage may include a lifting device to assist with moving the cage from the second position to the first position after launch of the cement plug. The cement head may be a modular design that includes multiple cement head bodies, and may also include a pressure balanced plug launch indicator and torque keys.

  • Patent number: 8733597
    Abstract: The liquid dispenser comprises a ratchet assembly, a rotor assembly, a reservoir assembly, and a drive mechanism. The reservoir assembly includes a reservoir and a reservoir tube; and the rotor assembly includes a drive gear and at least one compression element. The ratchet assembly includes a pawl configured to engage the drive gear when the drive mechanism is actuated. Optionally, the liquid dispenser includes a venting assembly and/or a dose control assembly. The venting assembly automatically vents the reservoir when the reservoir is mounted in the liquid dispenser. The dose control assembly allows the user to control the distance the drive mechanism may be actuated and thereby control the amount of liquid that is dispensed. The liquid dispenser of the invention provides accurate control over the amount of liquid that is dispensed as well as ease in replacing the reservoir.

  • Publication number: 20090189498
    Abstract: The cart comprises a platform supported on wheels. A plurality of vertical supports support a frame member at a spaced distance from the platform. The frame member defines a first opening disposed over a compartment. A door closes the opening to allow a user to isolate the compartment from the external environment. The door pivots from the closed position to the open position about two axes such that the door can be opened and the compartment accessed from different positions around the cart. In one open position the door is stopped in an upstanding, substantially vertical position such that the door is easily opened and closed. In a second open position the door extends downward against the side of the cart such that the door does not obstruct access to the compartment.
