Inventor: RINGLAND SIMON
IPC: H04W92/20
Filed: 2018-02-05
Abstract: Method and apparatuses are disclosed for controlling wireless communication between a first wireless access point and one or more user devices, the first access point having an interface for communication with the user devices on one or more wireless communication channels in a predetermined frequency range, and also being configured to communicate with one or more other wireless access points. The access points each have a radar detector operable to detect possible radar signals within the frequency range, and are configured to provide information indicative of whether or not possible radar signals have been detected. According to the method, the first access point receives communications relating to information provided by the other access points, and starts or stops wireless communications with its user devices on a particular channel based on information indicative of whether or not it has detected possible radar signals together with information indicative of whether or not the other wireless access points have detected possible radar signals.

Abstract: A machine for converting a sheet material into a relatively less dense dunnage product includes a forming assembly and a feeding assembly downstream of the forming assembly. The forming assembly is configured to cause lateral edges of the sheet material to roll towards one another, forming a tubular shape. A deflector at a downstream end of the forming assembly is configured to engage the lateral edges of the sheet material and to urge the lateral edges into an interior of the tubular shape. This juxtaposes lateral edge portions of the sheet material adjacent the respective lateral edges. A forming channel at a downstream end of the forming assembly faces the deflector to receive the lateral edge portions and shape them into a tab. Finally, the feeding assembly includes rotating connecting members that engage and connect together the overlapping lateral edge portions of the sheet material forming the tab.

Abstract: Apparatuses, methods, and systems for adjusting scale(s) of a refrigerant recovery system (RRS) are described. The RRS can determine pressure and weight measurements of content within a refrigerant storage tank. The RRS can determine weight measurements of content within oil storage containers. The RRS can compare the pressure and; weight measurements to thresholds to determine whether the scale(s) require adjusting, whether the RRS should be locked to prevent farther use of the RRS until after servicing of the RRS, or whether additional functions of an operating state of the RRS should be performed. The RRS can compose a processor to automatically adjust the scales, determine the pressure and weight measurements, and compare pressure and weight measurements to the thresholds. Locking the RRS can prevent the RRS from recovering refrigerant from a cooling system, such as an air conditioning system in a vehicle.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to additive manufacturing systems and methods on a large-scale format. One aspect involves a build unit that can be moved around in three dimensions by a positioning system, building separate portions of a large object. The build unit has an energy directing device that directs, e.g., laser or e-beam irradiation onto a powder layer. In the case of laser irradiation, the build volume may have a gasflow device that provides laminar gas flow to a laminar flow zone above the layer of powder. This allows for efficient removal of the smoke, condensates, and other impurities produced by irradiating the powder (the "gas plume") without excessively disturbing the powder layer. The build unit may also have a recoater that allows it to selectively deposit particular quantities of powder in specific locations over a work surface to build large, high quality, high precision objects.

Abstract: A product [11] includes a foldable clamshell-type housing [10] folded to a closed position to contain a pre-formed sensor pad [17] that was formed  in situ  therein when the housing [10] was in an open position, prior to closing. The housing [10] has an enclosed volume [12] bounded by relatively thin and flexible walls [23, 34], and outwardly extending tabs [18] which facilitate opening. This structure enables the user to easily open the housing [10] to remove the sensor pad [17], a cured silicone composition, by pushing inward on an outer surface of the outer wall [34] of a base section [15] of the housing [10]. This product [11] reduces the amount of manipulation needed to place the sensor pad [17] in a desired position, for example, during installation of a rain sensor system for a vehicle windshield.

Abstract: A call path identifier is maintained which is permuted in response to a calling instruction for calling a target function, based on a function return address. The call path identifier is used as a modifier value for authentication code generating and checking instructions for generating and checking authentication codes associated with source values. In response to the authentication code checking instruction, if an expected authentication code mismatches a previously generated authentication code for a source value then an error handling response is triggered. This is useful for preventing attacks where address pointers which are valid in one part of the code are attempted to be reused in other parts of code.
