    查看更多>>摘要:Reporters obtained the following quote from the background information supplied by the inventors: “As technology continuously improves, organizations increasing ly rely on technological channels to engage customers and increase revenue. Such exemplary technological channels typically include electronic mail communicatio ns as well as mobile applications, through which customers can enroll in a loyal ty program with the organization. Typically, customers may receive incentives to frequently transact at such organization through rewards or offerings from the organization. Conventional platforms, however, are simply unable to adapt such i ncentives to individual customers. Instead, conventional platforms issue a gener ic offering to all customers even though the means through which rewards or offe rings may be achieved are not preferable for each customer.”

    159-162页
    查看更多>>摘要:The following quote was obtained by the news editors from the background informa tion supplied by the inventors: “1. Field “The present disclosure relates to palletizing, and more specifically to a syste m and method for palletizing. “2. Brief Description of Related Developments “Many robotic palletizing cells are known in the art. Typically, such a palletiz ing cell includes one or more robot arms equipped with a product picking tool, a system that brings an empty pallet near the robot arms, and one or more conveyo rs that brings products to the robots to be picked thereby and positioned on the pallet. “A drawback of conventional palletizing cells is that there is waiting time inhe rent to the bringing of an empty pallet near the robot arms and of the exiting o f a full pallet before a further pallet is filled with products. “Also, the new requirements of manufacturers and distribution centers ask for be tter productivity of the robotic arm, where waiting time should be minimized.”

    'System For Early Detection Of Operational Failure In Component-Level Functions Within A Computing Environment' in Patent Application Approval Process (USPTO 20 240143426)

    162-166页
    查看更多>>摘要:The following quote was obtained by the news editors from the background informa tion supplied by the inventors: “Application performance management (APM) is the monitoring and management of performance and availability of devices and applic ations by diagnosing complex application performance problems to maintain an exp ected level of service. Operational elements of a computing environment are beco ming increasingly difficult to manage as they move toward highly distributed, mu lti-tier, multi-element constructs. Any operational failure detection and mitiga tion in services, processes, hosts, logs, networks, and/or the like, often invol ves manual intervention which can become a tedious process. Therefore, there is a need for an intelligent system for early detection of operational failure in c omponent-level functions within a computing environment.”

    'A Swing Arm Manipulator For Displacing Objects On An Object Carrier Surface Of An Object Carrier' in Patent Application Approval Process (USPTO 20240140730)

    167-171页
    查看更多>>摘要:The following quote was obtained by the news editors from the background informa tion supplied by the inventors: “Additive manufacturing (AM) production faciliti es are versatile in that they allow production of many varieties of objects havi ng characteristics which are only confined by the specifications of the product designer. In the AM industry physical three dimensional (3D) objects are produce d by means of adding material in layers using mechanical or chemical deposition rather than removing material by mechanical or chemical processes. Objects manuf actured by means of Additive Manufacturing are typically infinitely diverse in g eometry with bounding box sizes ranging from less than 1 mm cubed to more than 4 0 cm cubed. This poses problems when automating production lines as the equipmen t that is used in handling the products cannot be designed in anticipation of an y particular shape or template and therefore needs to solve the general problem for its problem domain specification. Also the materials used in an AM manufactu ring process may be very diverse, ranging from glass to metal to nylon, to flexi ble polymers and therefore pose a similar problem to handling facilities in the sense that in the ideal case of a fully automated n=1 production facility offeri ng a wide variety of material no assumption can be made on the material properti es of the products. Therefore the handling equipment must be designed to solve t he general case of handling the possible varieties of objects. Whereas the produ cts may be very diverse, they may also share common steps in their manufacturing process, such as a curing process and a cleaning process. Other processing step s however are mutually different. For example mutually different objects may nee d mutually different color treatments. This necessitates sorting of objects at t he output of a common processing stage. At least in the final stage, the objects should be sorted for delivery to the customer.

    Patent Issued for Inspection robots with independent drive module suspension (US PTO 11969881)

    177-179页
    查看更多>>摘要:Reporters obtained the following quote from the background information supplied by the inventors: “The present disclosure relates to robotic inspection and trea tment of industrial surfaces.” In addition to obtaining background information on this patent, NewsRx editors a lso obtained the inventors’ summary information for this patent: “Previously kno wn inspection and treatment systems for industrial surfaces suffer from a number of drawbacks. Industrial surfaces are often required to be inspected to determi ne whether a pipe wall, tank surface, or other industrial surface feature has su ffered from corrosion, degradation, loss of a coating, damage, wall thinning or wear, or other undesirable aspects. Industrial surfaces are often present within a hazardous location-for example in an environment with heavy operating equipme nt, operating at high temperatures, in a confined environment, at a high elevati on, in the presence of high voltage electricity, in the presence of toxic or nox ious gases, in the presence of corrosive liquids, and/or in the presence of oper ating equipment that is dangerous to personnel. Accordingly, presently known sys tems require that a system be shutdown, that a system be operated at a reduced c apacity, that stringent safety procedures be followed (e.g., lockout/tagout, con fined space entry procedures, harnessing, etc.), and/or that personnel are expos ed to hazards even if proper procedures are followed. Additionally, the inconven ience, hazards, and/or confined spaces of personnel entry into inspection areas can result in inspections that are incomplete, of low resolution, that lack syst ematic coverage of the inspected area, and/or that are prone to human error and judgement in determining whether an area has been properly inspected.
