  • Technologies for determining driver efficiency
    Patent number: 11881064
    Abstract: Technologies for determining driver efficiency include receiving, by a telematics server, accelerometer data from a telematics device located in a vehicle driven by a driver. The accelerometer data defines a pattern of acceleration of the vehicle over a time period. The telematics server determines a driver efficiency score of the driver based on the accelerometer data. The driver efficiency score is indicative of an average absolute acceleration of the vehicle over the time period. The determined driver efficiency score may be compared to a reference efficiency score and/or efficiency scores of other drivers to rank the drivers.

  • Keel type ram for use in internal batch mixers with tangential rotors
    Publication number: 20080239866
    Abstract: This invention provides a ram for use in a mixer with counter-rotating non-intermeshing rotors on which the central portion of the ram utilizes a apex, either a point or a line produced by a “V” or similar shape, that protrudes a given distance into the mixing chamber and on which the end portions of the ram are either horizontal such that they do not protrude into the mixing chamber at all or are otherwise shaped such that they protrude into the mixing chamber less than the apex of the central portion of the ram.
