Patent number: 11801535Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods and systems for autonomous data collection and system control of a material recovery facility (MRF). A control system receives data from set of sensors that reflect a status of the MRF. The control system determines an operating status of various MRF components (e.g., material handling units (MHUs), sensors, and/or other elements) and/or a composition of a waste stream being processed by the MRF. The control system controls MHU(s) based on the data to optimize the recovery and/or purity of recoverable materials from the waste stream. The control system may rearranging MHUs within the MRF and/or re-tasking individual MHUs to perform different handling functions. Machine learning (ML) and/or artificial intelligence (AI) mechanisms can be used to optimize the operation of the MRF in an autonomous fashion. Other aspects are also disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: December 15, 2022Date of Patent: October 31, 2023Assignee: Emerging Acquisitions, LLCInventors: Christopher Parr, Thomas Brooks, James Cole

Patent number: 11407265Abstract: The trailer docking device is a trailer hitch mounting dock with which can be secured to a trailer when the trailer is detached from the tow vehicle. The trailer docking device enables its user to load and unload the trailer while it is parked in a garage, warehouse, carport or parking slab. The trailer docking device is steel constructed, height-adjustable, permanently mounted receiver hitch that is bolted to concrete slab flooring. The trailer docking device is vertically adjustable and includes a mounting base which may be used to affix the device to a permanent surface, such as a cement slab or asphalt surface, and a trailer hitch mounted at the top of a telescoping riser assembly. An empty trailer can be secured to the trailer docking device in the same fashion as mounting a trailer to a tow vehicle, and once coupled, the trailer can be loaded and unloaded. This allows for more efficient use of garage space.Type: GrantFiled: February 20, 2020Date of Patent: August 9, 2022Inventors: Thomas Brook Townsend, IV, John Marian

Patent number: 11135620Abstract: Disclosed embodiments include methods and systems for autonomous data collection and system control of a material recovery or recycling facility. In some embodiments, a central control system receives inputs in the form of at least one data stream from each of one or more environmental sensors that reflect the status of a material recovery facility (MRF). The inputs are used to determine the operating status of one or more components of the MRF, and/or composition of a waste stream being processed by the MRF. At least one material handling unit is controlled in response to the inputs to optimize the recovery and/or purity of recyclable or recoverable materials from the waste stream. A service unit or mechanism may also be controlled in response to the inputs indicating that a component of the MRF requires servicing.Type: GrantFiled: January 14, 2019Date of Patent: October 5, 2021Assignee: EMERGING ACQUISITIONS, LLCInventors: Christopher Parr, Thomas Brooks, James Cole
