  • Patent number: 11278143
    Abstract: An absorbent pad holder and containment system includes a frame that can be adjustable in length on all sides to accommodate a varying range of absorbent pad dimensions. The frame design allows the absorbent area of the pad to remain flat while the ramped perimeter design of the frame and the corner attachment system holds the outer edge of the absorbent pad into an upward position. This creates a containment barrier for liquid that would normally flow over the edge of the pad and onto the floor surface. The perimeter design of the liner keeps the pad centered and provides flow of all liquid landing on the pad within the absorbent area of the pad.

  • Patent number: 11163880
    Abstract: A security agent for a host computing device may be implemented with multiple levels of indirection from an operating system (OS) kernel of the computing device in order to facilitate software upgrades for the security agent. An unserviceable kernel-mode component of the security agent may directly interface with the OS kernel and hook into a function (e.g., a security callback function) of the OS kernel in a first level of indirection, while a serviceable kernel-mode component of the security agent, which is upgradable, may indirectly interface with the OS kernel via the unserviceable kernel-mode component in a second level of indirection. The serviceable kernel-mode component may be configured to process events, and/or data related thereto, received from the OS kernel via the unserviceable kernel-mode component in order to monitor activity on the computing device for malware attacks.

  • Publication number: 20210317987
    Abstract: Air Assisted Enclosed Combustion Devices (AAECD) and methods are disclosed that provide maximum destruction efficiency of VOC's and methane greenhouse gases produced by oil production, site processing, storage, and transmission operations and produces no visible emission (smoke, soot, particulates) in the process. An exemplary AAECD may include a housing with an outer housing and a burner housing separated by an air gap. The AAECD is provided with a burner assembly, a blower assembly, and a suite of sensors in communication with an electronic control module having logic configured to receive input signals from the sensors, calculate an actual fuel-air ratio using the received input signals, compare the actual fuel-air ratio to a fuel-air ratio setpoint, and adjust a position of a throttle valve to control a rate and volume of air from a blower motor to the burner if the actual fuel-air ratio and the fuel-air ratio setpoint are different.

  • Patent number: 11027210
    Abstract: An inverted Stewart platform assembly includes a first platform having a first surface, a second platform having a second surface facing the first surface of the first platform, and six legs extending between and coupling the first platform and the second platform. The six legs are configured to be actuated between a first arrangement in which adjustable lengths of the six legs, measured from the first platform to the second platform, are substantially equal to one another, and a plurality of second arrangements in which the adjustable lengths of the six legs are not substantially equal to one another, wherein each leg of the six legs forms, in the first arrangement, an angle of less than or equal to 45 degrees with a plane defined by the first platform.

  • Patent number: 10664262
    Abstract: A remote security system may generate multiple different binary programs for corresponding operating system (OS) kernel versions that are to receive a software upgrade. A suppression process may then compare code in the code sections between pairs of binary programs, and may also compare the data in the data sections between the pairs of binary programs to identify subsets of “identical” binaries. The remote security system may send a representative binary (while suppressing the remaining binaries in a subset of identical binaries) to host computing devices that run different OS kernel versions. On the receiving end, a host computing device that runs a particular OS kernel version may receive a binary program, and prior to loading the binary program, modify the binary program to render the binary loadable by (or compatible with) the particular OS kernel version running on the host computing device.
