  • Publication number: 20230172686
    Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to systems and medical sponge for cleaning needleless connectors. A medical sponge can include a shaped foam configured to engage a portion of the needless connector and a disinfecting solution applied to the shaped foam. A system can include the medical sponge and a liquid-impermeable pouch in which the medical sponge is separately retained. The medical sponge can include highly-abrasive and highly-conforming foam material in place of wipes or other sponge products. The foam material may be an open-cell micro abrasive material such as melamine foam. The foam material may contain disinfecting solutions such as isopropyl alcohol, chlorhexidine gluconate, or povidone-iodine.

  • Publication number: 20230028274
    Abstract: A device and a method for controlling an update of a vehicle are configured to control an over-the-air (OTA) update of the vehicle. The device is disposed in the vehicle performing the OTA update to obtain information on a state of charge of a battery of the vehicle, transmit information on the OTA update to an update target device, and adjust a transmission time interval between data of the information on the OTA update transmitted to the update target device. The present disclosure can prevent a situation in which starting of the vehicle is impossible because of a lack of a capacity of the battery after performing the OTA update.

  • Publication number: 20220340152
    Abstract: Provided is a vehicle and a method of controlling the same that are capable of detecting a faulty ECU that fails to be switched to a sleep mode, and allowing the faulty ECU to be normally switched to the sleep mode through a rest of the faulty ECU. The method includes performing communication monitoring on a plurality of electronic control units (ECUs) connected to each other through a network; detecting a faulty ECU that does not enter a sleep mode under a sleep mode entry condition from among the plurality of ECUs based on a result of the communication monitoring; and performing a reset on the faulty ECU to allow the faulty ECU to enter the sleep mode.

  • Patent number: 10051091
    Abstract: A network system for a vehicle includes one or more first communication controllers and one or more second communication controllers. The one or more first communication controllers transmit a message in a first communication scheme. The one or more second communication controllers are connected to the one or more first communication controllers through a network and transmit a message in a second communication scheme different from the first communication scheme. When a transmission controller selected from the one or more first communication controllers and the one or more second communication controllers transmits a message, a communication controller using a communication scheme different from that of the selected transmission controller stops its own message transmission and resumes its own message transmission once the message transmission of the selected transmission controller is complete.

  • Patent number: 9300559
    Abstract: The present invention provides a message processing method of a gateway, which can improve the reliability of a routing operation of the gateway by changing the moment of message transmission. The message processing method of the gateway includes steps of (a) calculating a time difference between the transmission time of a message transmitted to the gateway and the transmission time of a message routed and transmitted from the gateway, and (b) comparing the transmission period of the message transmitted to the gateway and the transmission period of the message routed and transmitted from the gateway, when the time difference is less than a target value. (c) A message transmission timing offset is calculated according to the compared result between the transmission periods of the messages, and (d) the transmission time of the message transmitted to the gateway is changed and corrected using the message transmission timing offset.
