  • Patent number: 10365146
    Abstract: Methods and systems are providing for improving engine coolant level estimation to reduce engine overheating. The level of fluid in a coolant overflow reservoir is inferred based on the fluid level in a hollow vertical standpipe fluidically coupled to the reservoir at top and bottom locations, while the fluid level in the standpipe is estimated based on output from an ultrasonic signal transmitted by a sensor positioned in a recess at the bottom of the vertical standpipe. The sensor uses a combination of raw echo times and processed fluid level data to estimate the fluid level accurately and reliably.

  • Publication number: 20190228487
    Abstract: Embodiments generally relate to providing litigation management for multiple remote content systems using asynchronous bi-directional replication pipelines. In some embodiments, a method includes retrieving, at one or more inbound replicators of one or more respective bi-directional pipelines, metadata associated with documents stored in one or more content repositories. The method further includes resolving, at a governance control hub, conflicts associated with legal holds on one or more of the documents based on the metadata. The method further includes sending conflict resolution results from one or more outbound applicators of the bi-directional pipelines to the content repositories, where the content repositories enforce legal holds on the documents.

  • Publication number: 20190145333
    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for an oxygen sensor heater. In one example, a method may include applying a less than maximum duty cycle of voltage to the oxygen sensor heater during an engine cold start (e.g., when a temperature of the oxygen sensor is less than its light-off temperature) and adjusting the applied duty cycle of voltage to maintain a constant amount of power. In this way, the oxygen sensor may be heated at a constant rate even as a resistance of the oxygen sensor heater increases, decreasing an amount of time before the oxygen sensor reaches its light-off temperature.

  • Publication number: 20180322810
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are simulated fibrous tissue models of anatomical parts for surgical training. The non-dissolvable simulated fibrous tissue model is made of a polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and fibrous material composite to simulate realistic tissue properties and behaviors. The simulated fibrous tissue model may be a standalone model of an anatomical part or may be used in a complementary anatomical simulation kit to provide a more comprehensive training approach.

  • Publication number: 20180286854
    Abstract: A semiconductor device is protected from electrical overstress (EOS) and electro-static discharge (ESD) events by a series protection circuit electrically coupled in series along the transmission line between a signal source and a load. The series protection circuit includes a first field-effect transistor (FET) electrically coupled in series between the signal source and load. A parallel protection circuit is electrically coupled between the transmission line and a ground node. The parallel protection circuit can include a transient-voltage-suppression (TVS) diode.

  • Publication number: 20180232166
    Abstract: An industrial process control system comprises a primary controller coupled with a buffer and a primary memory. The primary controller is configured to create at least one redundant data type based on at least one base data type. The at least one redundant data type includes tracked operators that are different from corresponding operators of the at least one base data type. The tracked operators include an assignment function that is a same assignment function performed by the corresponding operators of the at least one base data type, and a transfer function. The primary controller is further configured to perform the assignment function on a piece of data to assign the piece of data to an address in the primary memory, perform the transfer function to transfer the piece of data to a buffer, and transfer contents of the buffer to a backup memory.

  • Patent number: 10031505
    Abstract: In many aspects, a system for a beverage dispenser can include smartcups and smartcup application management systems configured to validate and identify smartcups for dispensing a beverage. Identifying and validating the authenticity of smartcups as well as identifying registered consumers associated with smartcups may provide more secure beverage dispensers that may be placed in public with minimal oversight. Additionally, by identifying registered users associated with a registered smartcup and providing an individualized and streamlined consumer experience, consumer interactions can be improved with a beverage dispenser/provider and may lead to increased usage by consumers.

  • Patent number: 9990286
    Abstract: A redundant process controller arrangement includes a primary controller and parallel connected secondary controller each coupled to actuators and sensors coupled to processing equipment. The primary and secondary controllers include a main writable memory including a cache data control algorithm, central processing unit (CPU) with cache memory including cache not supporting write-thru, tracker logic coupled to a control cycle database in a tracked memory region and to a primary tracking buffer. A redundancy link is between the CPUs for passing tracked changes. The algorithm implements memory tracking using copy-back including the primary tracker logic each cycle writing tracked changes into the primary tracking buffer, and at cycle end, transferring tracked changes from the primary tracking buffer to the secondary controller over the redundancy link, and writing tracked changes to the secondary control database.
