Title: Ink tank cap and valve linkage
Inventor: CANTRELL JOHN J
IPC: B41L27/04
Filed: 2017-10-20
Abstract: An example ink tank includes an ink tank and a cap assembly attached to the ink tank with a preloaded hinge. The hinge rotates the cap assembly from a closed position to an open position when the cap assembly is unlatched. The cap assembly includes a bung to seal the ink tank during a partial rotation of the cap assembly when the cap assembly is unlatched. The ink tank also includes spring-loaded linkage connected to a valve in the ink tank. An effector extending from the cap assembly engages the spring-loaded linkage when the cap assembly is latched and disengages from the spring-loaded linkage after the cap assembly is unlatched. The spring-loaded linkage opens the valve when engaged with the effector, and closes the valve when disengaged from the effector, while the bung maintains a tank seal until the internal valve is closed.

Title: Methods and devices for transmission by selecting between uplink resources
Inventor: SEBIRE BENOIST
IPC: H04W72/04
Filed: 2017-11-06
Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to methods and devices for transmission by selecting between uplink resources. According to a method implemented by a terminal device in a communication system, a configuration of a first resource is received from a network device, the first resource being a grant-free resource. An uplink grant is received from the network device, indicating a second resource for use in a transmission time interval. The terminal device determines, based on the configuration of the first resource, whether the first resource is available in the transmission time interval. In response to determining that the first resource is available and possibly in response to a predefined condition associated with a logical channel for the terminal device is met, the terminal device transmits uplink data to the network device using the first resource.

Abstract: A system and method for real time estimation of heart rate (HR) from one or more face videos acquired in non-invasive manner. The system receives face videos and obtains several blocks as ROI (Region of Interest) consisting of facial skin areas. Subsequently, the temporal fragments are extracted from the blocks and filtered to minimize the noise. In the next stage, several temporal fragments are extracted from the video. The several temporal fragments, corrupted by noise are determined using an image processing range filter and pruned for further processing. The HR of each temporal fragment, referred as local HR is estimated along with its quality. Eventually, a quality based fusion is applied to estimate a global HR corresponding to the received face videos. In addition, the disclosure herein is also applicable for frontal, profile and multiple faces and performs in real-time.

Abstract: The present invention provides  in ovo  injection devices, including a novel vaccine/substance conservation valve (VCV), a needle depth adjuster (NDA), and methods for selectively delivering vaccines and other substances to eggs in the context of poultry hatcheries. The valve of the present invention allows for the conditional dispensing of vaccines and other substances dependent upon the presence or absence of an egg. When an egg is present, the valve becomes activated, allowing vaccines or other substances to be injected. When an egg is absent, the valve is not activated, thus vaccines and other valuable substances are conserved. The NDA allows embryonated eggs to be more safely injected by reducing the depth of needle penetration, particularly in smaller eggs.
