  • Patent number: 12291248
    Abstract: A system and method for automating railroad maintenance for a tie gang using electronic tie marking (ETM) configured to optimize railroad asset maintenance. The system enables the automating of an adaptive maintenance process for the asset that is being maintainanced. The system can identify a railroad asset scheduled for maintenance using various forms of inspection including real-time kinematic (RTK)-corrected GPS data, radar signal processing data, and real-time imaging. The system also provides for the acquisition and upload of asset pictures for verification and analysis of a railroad asset. The system can identify a next location to perform maintenance and can calculate an optimum path based on sensor input incorporating machine-specific and environmental characteristics. The system further can provide a customizable user interface to identify, track, and process information related to maintenance of the railroad asset.

  • Patent number: 10564701
    Abstract: Microcomputer with a sleep mode system uses a non-volatile memory stack for saving system variables, then switches the microcomputer completely off to go into sleep-mode. In sleep-mode, the microcomputer sleep mode system uses a low powered clock and sensors to trigger time events and device events that power up the microcomputer when needed. When in awake-mode, the microcomputer logs any data from connected device(s). The microcomputer turns on an internet radio and transmits data logged, updates its clock time and receives any configuration updates before powering back down into sleep-mode.

  • Patent number: 10440962
    Abstract: A system and method for controlling blisters. The method begins by mixing the ingredients to form a dough with a moisture content between about 35% and 60%. The dough is sheeted and cut. Thereafter, the dough is pre-heated to reduce the moisture content to between about 10% and about 45%. The preforms are then docked and dehydrated. The docking system, in one embodiment, has a backing plate and a docking device with at least two docking pins of varying lengths. The docking device is adjustable relative to the backing plate. The system also has a removing plate which removes preforms from the docking pins.

  • Publication number: 20190279166
    Abstract: An apparatus and method that manages preventive-maintenance procedures among users and machines in a cloud network. It employs machine-readable language to: collect written documentation; convert digital audio recordings of crowd-sourced information; parse data; aggregate, normalize, compile and output the data into user-specified reports. Procedures, manuals, equipment maintenance data, and credential data go in; detailed histories of equipment maintenance and user information go out. The apparatus and method facilitates documentation of institutional-equipment-maintenance procedures at various participating locations as the maintenance is performed by a technician. It provides reports about machines in an organization, and groups of machines of identical model numbers among organizations, for use by technicians, managers and manufacturers. It serves to share the workload of managing preventive-maintenance procedures among organizations that use the data, and to provide information lifecycles of equipment.
