  • Patent number: 11920903
    Abstract: A conducted electrical weapon may include an interposer. The interposer may be disposed in a bay of the conducted electrical weapon or may be coupled to a magazine insertable within the bay of the conducted electrical weapon. The interposer may include a cartridge separator. The cartridge separator may logically or physically define a plurality of cartridge compartments. Each cartridge compartment may be configured to receive and align with a cartridge loaded into a magazine.

  • Publication number: 20230146388
    Abstract: Magazines of conducted electrical weapons (CEW) comprise a set of magnetic elements having positions, polarities, and magnitudes corresponding to a type of magazine. The CEW uses sensors to detect an indicator magnet indicating that a magazine is inserted into a bay of the CEW. The CEW additionally uses sensors to detect information about the set of magnetic elements and determines, based on the detected information, a type of the magazine.

  • Publication number: 20230066624
    Abstract: A safety switch for a conducted electrical weapon (“CEW”) may be configured to operate between at least one fixed position and at least one momentary position. In response to the safety switch being operated into the at least one momentary position, the safety switch may return to the at least one fixed position. In the fixed position, the safety switch may be configured to perform a firing mode operation. In the momentary position, the safety switch may be configured to perform a non-firing mode operation.

  • Publication number: 20230021927
    Abstract: A conducted electrical weapon (“CEW”) comprises one or more mechanisms for receiving, aligning, and maintaining a position of a magazine within a bay of the CEW. Bias spring and datums may be used to align the magazine to be coupled to the CEW, wherein bias springs are configured to apply pressure to push the magazine to interact with datums to align the magazine. A spring and ramp mechanism may be used to maintain a position of the magazine coupled to the bay of the CEW. Respective grades of a locking ramp and a release ramp are used to lock a spring in place when a magazine is coupled to the bay of the CEW.

  • Publication number: 20220404126
    Abstract: A magazine for a conducted electrical weapon may include a bore configured to receive a cartridge. The bore may be sized and shaped to receive a cartridge having a specific cartridge type. A cartridge may comprise a cartridge identifier coupled to an outer surface of the cartridge. The cartridge identifier may include a physical property indicating a cartridge type of the cartridge. The cartridge identifier may allow the cartridge to be correctly received into the bore of the magazine.

  • Publication number: 20220374994
    Abstract: A system for electronically automating risk selection, rating, disaggregation, and assignment is provided. The system includes Quoting System interface software that generates graphical user interfaces that are output to a display screen of an end user computing device and that accept data relating to a risk subject to be analyzed and assigned. The risk subject data is used by a Triton software engine that interfaces with supplemental risk subject data application programming interfaces (API) to secure supplemental risk subject data relevant to analyzing and assigning the risk subject. The Triton software engine performs a risk selection analysis, a risk rating analysis, a disaggregation analysis, and a capacity analysis to quantify the risk presented by the risk subject and to determine a set of qualified facilities capable of accepting assignment of the risk subject. The Triton software engine evenly assigns the risk subjects to facilities using a market assignment process.

  • Patent number: 10151475
    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a system for determining scaling in a boiler. At least one sensor may monitor a boiler during operation and provide sensor data to a boiler monitoring module including a boiler scaling determination module that may determine an amount of scaling in the boiler. Example sensor data may comprise power input, a temperature of liquid in the boiler and an air temperature within an enclosure housing the boiler. The boiler monitoring module may determine thermal energy transfer to the boiler based on the liquid and enclosure temperatures. A machine learning engine may determine a rate of thermal energy transfer to the liquid in view of the power input, the rate of thermal energy transfer being evaluated by the machine learning engine to identify delay in the rate of thermal energy transfer that quantifies an amount of scaling in the boiler.
