  • Publication number: 20240172565
    Abstract: A device which includes a free layer and a current channel. The free layer has a configurable magnetization state. The current channel includes a low-symmetry crystal with only one mirror plane. The low-symmetry material has relatively large unconventional spin Hall effect (SHE). A current through the current channel applies a spin-orbit torque that sets the magnetization state of the free layer.

  • Patent number: 11950177
    Abstract: A method, a device, and a non-transitory storage medium are described in which an blocking delivery service is provided. The service may use an identifier of a source end device, destination address information associated with a destination end device, and configurable criteria as a basis to block delivery of application service layer data. The service may be configured to apply to end devices based on an addressing scheme of the service. The service may be configured on a network device that provides an application service. The service may block delivery without the use of class of service or subscriber provisioning.

  • Patent number: 11446931
    Abstract: A controller determines, for each cartridge, whether a remaining amount in a first liquid chamber is smaller than a first liquid amount; in response to determining that a first cartridge exists for which the remaining amount is smaller than the first liquid amount, determines, for each cartridge other than the first cartridge, whether the remaining amount is smaller than a second liquid amount larger than the first liquid amount; in response to determining that a second cartridge exists, determines whether a remaining amount of the second cartridge is smaller than the first liquid amount, the second cartridge having the remaining amount smaller than the second liquid amount; and in response to determining that a particular second cartridge exists, displays a first screen including a first object that prompts replacement of the first cartridge and the particular second cartridge having the remaining amount smaller than the first liquid amount.

  • Patent number: 11372605
    Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes: a communication interface configured to communicate with an order receiving apparatus; a memory configured to store an upper limit value of the number of orders of the consumable product and administrator's authentication information; an input device; an output device; and a controller. The controller determines whether the number of orders of the consumable product inputted via the input device is more than the upper limit value. When the controller has determined that the number of orders is more than the upper limit value, the controller requests input of authentication information via the output device. The controller determines whether the authentication information inputted via the input device in response to the request matches the administrator's authentication information.

  • Patent number: 11242589
    Abstract: A steel processing line includes a dip tub and a stab roll. The dip tub is filled with a quantity of molten metal. At least a portion of the stab roll is submerged in the quantity of molten metal. The stab roll includes two journals. Each journal is received by an opening defined by a roller sleeve including a ceramic or refractory material. The roller sleeve is disposed between each journal and a bearing block. An inner dimension of each roller sleeve and an outer dimension of each respective journal defines a clearance. The inner dimension of each roller sleeve and the outer dimension of each respective journal is configured such that the clearance persists as the stab roll and the pair of roller sleeves are heated by the molten metal. Alternatively, inserts are fastened to an outer surface of each journal in lieu of the roller sleeves.

  • Publication number: 20220009242
    Abstract: An image recording device includes a cartridge mount to which a cartridge is mounted, a cartridge interface, a memory, a communication interface, a print engine configured to execute printing, and a controller. The controller is configured to obtain a transmission address stored in a cartridge memory of the cartridge through the cartridge interface, store the obtained transmission address in the memory, obtain, from the memory, notification information including at least one from a group of remaining amount information indicating a remaining amount of consumable in the cartridge mounted to the cartridge mount, order information indicating an order for the cartridge and status information indicating a state of the print engine, and transmission source information, and transmit the obtained notification information and the obtained transmission source information to the obtained transmission address through the communication interface.

  • Patent number: 11168388
    Abstract: A steel processing line includes a roller submerged in a quantity of molten metal. The roller includes two journals. Each journal is received by an opening defined by a roller sleeve having a ceramic or refractory material. The roller sleeve is disposed between each journal and a bearing block to reduce or prevent wear on the journal. An inner dimension of each roller sleeve and an outer dimension of each respective journal defines a clearance. The inner dimension of each roller sleeve and the outer dimension of each respective journal is configured such that the clearance persists as the roller and the pair of roller sleeves are heated by the molten metal.

  • Patent number: 11104518
    Abstract: A dispensation system having a hopper that is located remote to the remainder of the dispensation system. The hopper can be located remote from a delivery system and a conveyor or other transmitting device can connect the hopper to the delivery system. The hopper can therefore be located in an area that is more accessible or less valued than the area in which the products or objects are dispensed, allowing a more efficient product distribution system.

  • Patent number: 10953661
    Abstract: When a correction request is received, a printing correction pattern is printed. Thereafter, a screen prompting to scan the printed correction pattern is displayed. When the scan notification screen is displayed, if the scanning request is received, an image is scanned. Next, the driving information is corrected based on a scanned image. When a particular standby condition is satisfied without the scanning request being received, a process of setting non-completion information is performed. When a particular standby release condition is satisfied without the scanning request is received, a screen corresponding to the satisfied standby release condition is displayed at a particular timing. When the correction request is input when a screen different from the scan notification screen is displayed, information regarding necessity determination of the pattern printing process is received.
