| 20080252469 | Container Power Sensing System and Method - An automated and/or remote method for identifying and/or changing the source of power for these generator sets, which may apply to any environment where there are alternative sources of power available which must be managed remotely (such as for other powered containers not used for refrigeration transport). | 10-16-2008 |
| 20090237258 | Apparatus And Method For Wireless Monitoring - A method of collecting data from (and sending instructions and data to) a reefer is provided, the method includes the steps of connecting a monitoring device on a reefer at an existing connection port for collecting (and delivering) data related to the reefer and wirelessly transmitting the data. A software management system for collecting and monitoring data of a reefer is also provided, the software management system has a monitoring device for obtaining data from a reefer at an connection port of the reefer and wirelessly transmitting the data, and a software system for receiving the data and monitoring and controlling the status of the reefer based on the data received. | 09-24-2009 |
| 20110193710 | REFRIGERATED CONTAINER MONITORING SYSTEM - A monitoring system for a refrigerated container carrying temperature-sensitive cargo. The system includes sensors disposed throughout the container and/or an associated vehicle for measuring parameters of the container or vehicle, including temperature, motion, and fuel efficiency, among many others. The system optionally includes a global positioning system receiver to monitor geographic location. The system communicates with a command center to allow real-time tracking and monitoring of the container. To reduce false positive alerts, the system buffers alerts by at least 30 minutes and blocks signal transmission when the container is located within specified geofences such as loading and unloading sites. | 08-11-2011 |
| 20110304466 | Refrigeration System Management and Information Display - Embodiments of the invention provide methods of displaying information associated with a refrigeration system, methods for managing a refrigeration system, refrigeration systems, methods of providing redundancy to a refrigeration system, and injector systems. A refrigeration system and method for displaying information associated with a refrigeration system includes monitoring a temperature associated with the refrigeration system, detecting events associated with the refrigeration system, and displaying the temperature and at least one event associated with the refrigeration system occurring during a predetermined period of time, including displaying the temperature occurring during the predetermined period of time and displaying a user interface element associated with at least one event occurring during the predetermined period of time. | 12-15-2011 |
| 20120176245 | COMPUTER CONTROLLED AND MONITORED MEDICAL STORAGE SYSTEM - A system is disclosed for monitoring and controlling a refrigerated medical storage unit. The system may include a control station. The control station may receive temperature information from the refrigerated medical storage unit and may cause at least a portion of the temperature information to be stored. The control station may determine whether the temperature is outside a predefined range and may causes an alarm to be generated when the temperature is outside the predefined range. The control station may receive user authentication information from a user, and upon verification of the user authentication information, send unlock instructions to the refrigerated medical storage unit. | 07-12-2012 |
| 20130049967 | System and method for controlling and managing medical supplies stored inside medical refrigerator or freezer - The present invention is directed to a system and method for controlling and managing medical supplies stored inside medical refrigerator or freezer. The system includes a reader and at least two antenna situated in different locations of the exterior of the refrigerator or freezer and are connected to the reader individually; electronic labels attached on the medical supplies which store identification codes of corresponding medical supplies; processing unit which is connected to the reader for receiving identification codes of medical supplies from reader through the antenna, and determines a general position of the corresponding medical supply in the storage space according to the situated location and beam coverage area of the antenna, thus allowing one to quickly retrieve said medical supply. | 02-28-2013 |
| 20140035750 | MULTI LEVEL HAZARD DETECTION SYSTEM - A multi level hazard detection system for home residents or owners or service providers that want to efficiently monitor and detect numerous common hazards in houses, offices or industrial structures. Hazards that may be dangerous their health or to the structural integrity of their houses, offices and industrial structures and all appliances and systems that are of these structures such as heating and cooling systems, pipes and more. By detecting hazards in advance, residents home owners and service providers can better protect their property. The multi level hazard detection system generally includes Single or Multi Sensor Device ( | 02-06-2014 |
| 20140070951 | REFRIGERATOR, AND APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR REFRIGERATOR DIAGNOSIS - The present invention relates to a refrigerator and to an apparatus and method for refrigerator diagnosis. More particularly, the refrigerator converts product information and outputs a tone when a command for storing data and performing a diagnosis is inputted during operation. The refrigerator diagnosis apparatus receives the tone and diagnoses the state of or presence of defects in the refrigerator based on the data contained in the product information so as to analyze the cause of the defect and propose countermeasures to repair the refrigerator. Thus, the diagnosis of defects may be accurately and easily performed upon the occurrence of defect in the refrigerator. | 03-13-2014 |
| 20140368346 | Computer Controlled And Monitored Medical Storage System - A system is disclosed for monitoring and controlling a refrigerated medical storage unit. The system may include a control station. The control station may receive temperature information from the refrigerated medical storage unit and may cause at least a portion of the temperature information to be stored. The control station may determine whether the temperature is outside a predefined range and may causes an alarm to be generated when the temperature is outside the predefined range. The control station may receive user authentication information from a user, and upon verification of the user authentication information, send unlock instructions to the refrigerated medical storage unit. | 12-18-2014 |
| 20160078744 | DEVICE AND METHODS FOR MONITORING ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS - Disclosed herein is a monitoring device comprising a sensor or probe for measuring an environmental condition inside a building, a display unit for displaying the level of the environmental condition, and a communication device that transmits text messages if the level of the environmental condition passes a predetermined threshold level. | 03-17-2016 |
