  • Publication number: 20240102575
    Abstract: An equalization shutoff valve includes a housing having an outward extending flange around an open end of the housing, retaining clips attached to the flange configured to engage a battery pack compartment, and piston guides disposed inside the housing; a piston having guide notches engaging the piston guides, and a first flow port; a spring disposed between the housing and the piston to urge the piston in a direction away from a closed end of the housing; and a locking tab cover attached to the housing with the piston inside the housing, and having a second flow port and locking tabs with clip ports. The housing is attached to the battery pack compartment through the retaining clips so that air flows from inside the battery pack compartment, and when pressure inside the housing increases, increased pressure pushes the spring and the piston to allow air to exit from the housing.

  • Publication number: 20240095361
    Abstract: An execution environment has been designed that detects likely data exfiltration by using taint tracking and abstract execution. The execution environment is instrumented to monitor for use of functions identified as having functionality for transferring data out of an execution environment. In addition, heuristics-based rules are defined to mark or “taint” objects (e.g., variables) that are likely targets for exfiltration. With taint tracking and control flow analysis, the execution environment tracks the tainted objects through multiple execution paths of a code sample. After comprehensive code coverage, logged use of the monitored functions are examined to determine whether any tainted objects were passed to the monitored functions. If so, the logged use will indicate a destination or sink for the tainted source. Each tainted source-sink association can be examined to verify whether the exfiltration was malicious.

  • Publication number: 20240090928
    Abstract: Certain embodiments of the invention provide plates for treating periarticular fractures or other non-full body weight bearing applications that combine polyaxial fixation with a low profile and enhanced contouring that more closely conforms to bone. Such plates can be designed to achieve buttressing effect and/or to be used in a reinforcement mode. Other features can be combined with these. Such plates can be created for use on bone sites such as on a tibia, fibula, metatarsal, calcaneous, other foot bone, humerus, radius, ulna, spinal, maxillofacial, as well as sites on other bones.

  • Publication number: 20240086952
    Abstract: An improved computing system can use mobility data corresponding to a particular mobile device to identify one or more geographic locations to which the mobile device traveled within a certain period of time. The computing system can use parcel data to identify parcels that are located at any one of the identified geographic locations. The computing system can further use the parcel data to identify a subset of the identified parcels that are listed for sale or rent. If the computing system identifies at least one parcel that the mobile device visited that is available on the market, this may indicate that the user who operates the mobile device may be shopping for a home. In response, the computing system can update information about the user to indicate that the user may be shopping for a home.

  • Patent number: 11684881
    Abstract: A vapor particle separator includes a housing having an inlet port in fluid communication with the outlet of the fuel tank, an outlet port in fluid communication with the inlet port of the vapor canister and a drain port in fluid communication with the filler neck. The inlet port has deflector ribs and a centralized nose cone creating a straight flow path resulting in less restriction in the fuel vapor flow. As the mixture flows along the inlet passage, it is forced through the deflection ribs and nose cone at which time the droplets and vapors are separated. The separated droplets and vapors flow from the inlet passage into the inlet pipe. The outlet passage and the drain portion allow the lite weight vapors to rise up into the outlet passage and out the outlet portion while gravity pulls the heavier weight droplets down into the return portion.
