Publication number: 20240144298Abstract: An apparatus is configured to configured to receive, from a sending device, an electronic communication which includes an executable code for a behavioral tracking process. The apparatus may generate a visible mark associated with an executable code for an engagement tracking process and insert the visible mark into an electronic communication so that the visible mark is accessible in display of the electronic communication. The apparatus may then transmit the electronic communication, including the visible mark and the executable code, to a user device.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 2, 2022Publication date: May 2, 2024Applicant: Validity, Inc.Inventors: Gregory KIMBALL, Thomas BARTEL

Patent number: 9670707Abstract: A door hinge having two hinge leaves joined together at a knuckle defining a hinge axis about which the leaves are relatively pivotal and top and bottom sheet-metal parts forming a housing surrounding one of the hinge leaves. Two rotatable adjustment spindles are each journaled in the housing, rotatable about respective axes extending in a first direction perpendicular to the hinge axis, and operatively threadedly connected to the one leaf so that rotation of the spindles moves the one leaf in a first direction perpendicular to the hinge axis. A base plate between the parts is formed with respective threaded hole receiving the spindles, the base plate being secured to the one leaf for movement of the one leaf in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction relative to the base plate.Type: GrantFiled: August 21, 2015Date of Patent: June 6, 2017Assignee: SIMONSWERK GMBHInventors: Thomas Bartels, Andre Bultschnieder, Sergei Gorenbacher

Patent number: 9145721Abstract: A door hinge has two hinge leaves joined together at a knuckle defining a hinge axis about which the leaves are relatively pivotal. Top and bottom sheet-metal parts forming a housing surround one of the hinge leaves. The top part is formed with a plurality of downwardly projecting side flaps each projecting toward and bearing on an upper face of the bottom part. Each side flap is formed with at least one downward projecting tab that extends past, is bent over, and bears upward against a bottom face of the bottom part. Two rotatable adjustment spindles are each journaled in the housing and threaded in the one leaf so that rotation of the spindles moves the one leaf in a first direction perpendicular to the hinge axis.Type: GrantFiled: November 12, 2014Date of Patent: September 29, 2015Assignee: SIMONSWERK GMBHInventors: Thomas Bartels, Andre Bultschnieder, Sergei Gorenbacher

Patent number: 8624190Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device (1, 100) for determining the sex of fertilized, nonincubated bird eggs (13, 130), where an egg (13, 130) has a solid egg shell (14), an egg yolk (2) which is surrounded by the egg shell and further egg integuments and a blastodisc (3) associated with the egg yolk (2), and where a probe (4, 40) for measuring a spectrum is introduced through a hole (17) of the egg shell (14) towards the blastodisc (3) with blastodisc cells (23), with the following steps: —positioning of the probe (4, 40) in the region of the blastodisc (3), —spectroscopic in-ovo characterization of the blastodisc cells (23), and —identification of the sex by an automatic classification of spectra.Type: GrantFiled: January 14, 2011Date of Patent: January 7, 2014Assignees: Technische Universität Dresden, Universität LeipzigInventors: Gerald Steiner, Edmund Koch, Maria-Elisabeth Krautwald-Junghanns, Thomas Bartels

Patent number: 8413299Abstract: A hinge for mounting a door-panel or window sash to a fixed jamb element has two leaves pivoted together about an axis. One of the leaves is adapted for attachment directly to an edge of one of the elements. A housing is recessed in the other of the elements and has a pair of generally parallel and vertical side walls with inner faces defining a horizontally open cavity. A bar is shiftable in the cavity horizontally perpendicular to the side walls and vertically. At least one fastener releasably securing the other of the leaves to the bar. A pair of spindles extending perpendicular to the side walls in the cavity are threaded into the bar and have opposite ends bearing on the inner faces of the side walls so that rotation of the spindles shifts the bar perpendicular to the side walls.Type: GrantFiled: March 23, 2011Date of Patent: April 9, 2013Assignee: Simonswerk GmbHInventor: Thomas Bartels
