Publication number: 20230338184Abstract: Described herein is an oral appliance. The oral appliance includes upper and lower trays that each include at least one axial spring configured to contact a palatal/lingual surface of at least one tooth, where each axial spring is coupled to the respective upper or lower tray, and where each axial spring is configured to produce and transmit intermittent, cyclic forces to the palatal/lingual surface of the tooth to promote palatal and upper/lower jaw development. The upper and lower trays each include an expansion mechanism to enable adjustment of the size of the upper and lower trays to account for palatal expansion and upper and lower jaw development. The oral appliance includes first and second adjustable hinge arms that are removably connected to the upper and lower trays so that the oral appliance advances the mandible to provide temporary relief from sleep disordered breathing, sleep apnea and/or snoring.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 29, 2023Publication date: October 26, 2023Inventors: Todd Nickolas Huntsman, Braden Charles Bennett, Justin Dean Harris, Cathryn H.

Publication number: 20230056599Abstract: A computer implemented method for rendering a page that includes one or more dynamic design elements into an output video is described. The method comprises processing the page to generate one or more layers, each layer being either a static layer associated with one or more static design elements of the page or a dynamic layer associated with a single dynamic design element of the page. Output frames are then generated using the layers and then encoded into the output video.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 6, 2020Publication date: February 23, 2023Inventors: Karolina Pawlikowska, Andrew Charles Bennett, Max Scheffler

Publication number: 20220274855Abstract: In an immersed membrane system, the influent flows into an open membrane tank. The membrane tank can have multiple horizontally spaced immersed membrane units. The immersed membrane units may have flat sheet membrane elements within a membrane case. One or more ducts are provided in the tank for directing the flow of influent to the immersed membrane units. In some examples, the influent is divided into sub-streams that are fed through baffles to a corresponding immersed membrane unit, optionally in generally equal amounts, optionally in a single pass flow pattern. In a process of operating a membrane tank, the influent flow is directed across the bottom of the membrane tank and divided into multiple portions. Each of the multiple portions is fed directly to the bottom of a corresponding immersed membrane unit located in the tank. The influent may be mixed liquor in a membrane bioreactor (MBR).Type: ApplicationFiled: July 16, 2019Publication date: September 1, 2022Inventors: Diana BENEDEK, Charles BENNETT, Babak LAKGHOMI

Patent number: 9625102Abstract: Systems and methods are provided herein for gas storage and the safe release of gas using cascading burst discs. A vessel for storing gas is in pneumatic communication with a first flow path. A first burst disc is disposed in the first flow path such that gas flow is prevented when the disc is intact. A second flow path is in pneumatic communication with the first flow path and configured to receive gas flow when the first burst disc is ruptured. A second burst disc is disposed in the second flow path and configured to prevent a gas flow while the second burst disc is intact. At an operating pressure, the first burst disc may be punctured by an operator allowing normal use of the system. In the event of a gas overpressure, the first and second burst discs will rupture permitting safe release of the gas.Type: GrantFiled: October 21, 2014Date of Patent: April 18, 2017Assignee: AVOX SYSTEMS INC.Inventors: Frank J. Forkl, III, Frank Dorogi, Duard Charles Bennett, Adam Fetzer, Greg Gutekunst
