Title: Safety intravenous catheter with friction-based retention and disabling feature
Inventor: RAY ISAACSON
IPC: A61M25/06
Filed: 2015-01-02
Abstract: A catheter and introducer needle assembly 200 comprising a catheter hub 204 having an uninterrupted outer surface portion 226, a Luer-connecting feature 228, and a disabling feature 232. The assembly includes an introducer needle 206 disposed in the catheter, a needle shield 210 having a resilient clip 212 adapted to flex between a first and a second position in a plane perpendicular to the introducer needle 206. The resilient clip 212 includes a cantilevered arm 220 with a pawl or finger 222. In the resilient clip's first position, the cantilevered arm 220 is flexed so that the pawl 222 frictionally contacts the catheter hub's outer surface 226 at a position spaced from, but axially aligned with, the disabling feature 232; the pawl 222 thus frictionally retains the needle shield 210 with the catheter hub 204. The normal force applied to the outer surface 226 by the pawl 222 is preferably in the range of 0.4-1.4 N, and a coefficient of friction between the two is in the range 0.25-0.4. In the second position, the pawl 222 no longer frictionally contacts the hub's outer surface 226, thereby permitting the needle shield 210 to be displaced.

Title: Hybrid finite impulse response filter
Inventor: JEFFREY D ALDERSON
IPC: H03H21/00
Filed: 2015-07-21
Abstract: An audio noise-cancellation circuit uses adaptive multirate FIR filters (figure 4) which consume less power and have lower latency than conventional FIR filters. The noise-cancellation circuit receives signals from reference and error microphones (R and E, figure 1A) and generates a feedforward anti-noise signal from the reference microphone signal using an adaptive filter 32. The adaptive filter 34A replicates the playback path from the codec output (ia, figure 24) to the error microphone, providing a signal for subtraction 36 from the error microphone signal. The feedback antinoise signal is generated from the resultant playback-corrected error signal PBCE by an optional filter 44.  The filters 34A and 44 may also comprise multirate filters. The filters 32, 34A,34B and 44 may alternatively comprise FIR filters with an analogue FIR portion and a FIR portion (figure 5).

Title: Modifying mapping of throttle pedal input to torque demand
Inventor: FRANCISCO LUMBRERAS ARCOS
IPC: B60W20/40
Filed: 2018-04-06
Abstract: Method and system of modifying a mapping of throttle pedal input to torque demand, comprising the steps of identifying a pull-away, assessing the pull-away against a criterion related to emissions or fuel-consumption, and when the pull-away is assessed as meeting the criterion, information related to captured throttle pedal position during the pull-away is used to modify the mapping. Modifying the mapping may include modifying one or more pedal scalars. Preferably, the criterion is average CO2 production, fuel-consumption, duration of the pull-away or gradient, wherein the criterion is assessed against a threshold value. Assessment may comprise an anomaly detection algorithm could be utilised, wherein the algorithm uses Gaussian distributions trained on throttle pedal position data captured during prior pull-aways. Assessment could also be determining, from the throttle pedal input, whether the driver’s reaction to the pull-away was consistent with a reaction from previous pull-aways.
