  • Patent number: 11958681
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a ventilating and blanking device for a coal storage Eurosilo. The ventilating and blanking device includes a top blanking pipe, an axial flow fan and a baffle door, the top blanking pipe including a first pipeline and a second pipeline, an air supply pipe is connected to a side wall of the second pipeline, and the baffle door is connected to a driving mechanism; during blanking, the driving mechanism drives the baffle door so as to make the baffle door close the air supply pipe and the axial flow fan is shut off; and during ventilation, the driving mechanism drives the baffle door so as to make the baffle door close the first pipeline, and the axial flow fan is turned on. Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the advantages of ventilation efficiency, good ventilation effect, etc.

  • Patent number: 10078740
    Abstract: A method and system for fetching functionalities across various user interfaces and providing, for execution, instructions to invoke a function that is not present at a particular user interface are disclosed. The method implemented in the system can include receiving i) data identifying a first function associated with a first user interface, and ii) instructions for invoking the first function in one or more user interfaces; receiving, from a second user interface, a request for invoking the first function; selecting, using a processor, an instruction configured to invoke the first function in the second user interface; transmitting the instruction to the second user interface; and invoking, using the transmitted instruction, the first function in an application associated with the second user interface.

  • Patent number: 8732613
    Abstract: In one example, a computing device executes a plurality of application processes, each of which has an associated graphical user interface element. The computing device renders a common graphical user interface on a presence-sensitive screen. The common graphical user interface includes a currently rendered graphical user interface element associated with a currently selected application process from among the plurality of application processes; a tab row comprising a plurality of tabs, wherein each of the graphical user interface elements corresponds to one of the plurality of tabs; and a slide bar positioned proximate to the tab row. The computing device renders a first tab in the tab row with a larger size than other graphical tabs in the plurality of tabs responsive to receipt by the presence-sensitive screen of a gesture input associated with a region of the slide bar that is closest to the first tab.
