Abstract: A suspension system for a cryostat includes a coupling mechanism, a fixation body, and a pin. The coupling mechanism is joined to an outer vessel and coupled with a strap. The fixation body is joined to an inner vessel. The fixation body extends between a front side that faces the coupling mechanism and an opposite receiving side with an interior channel extending from the receiving side to the front side. The channel defines a front opening in the front side and a rear opening in the receiving side. The pin is loaded into the fixation body through the rear opening in the receiving side of the fixation body with the strap looped around the pin and extending through the front opening to the coupling mechanism. The pin secures the coupling mechanism to the fixation body via the strap by engaging the fixation body inside the channel.

Abstract: A container and a closure for the container are disclosed. The container has a projection extending outwardly from a sidewall that surrounds a central space. The projection is received within a channel having inner and outer legs that form a perimeter of the closure. The projection engages an inwardly projecting shoulder formed by a lip attached to the outer channel leg. The lip is removable to allow removal of the closure from the container. The lip serves a tamper-evident function. The projection takes the form of a flange arranged at an acute angle or a rib formed of reverse folded sidewall portions. A method of forming the container is also disclosed. A first sidewall portion having a free edge is folded over and attached to a second sidewall portion adjacent the free edge.

Abstract: Apparatuses and methods to allow tools disposed upon a conduit to enter the bore of a drillstring is presented. The apparatuses and methods include the use of one or more articulated knuckle joints at ends of an entry sub. The articulated knuckle joints are capable of articulating the entry sub among various conduit entry and load carrying positions.

Abstract: An apparatus for modifying the temperature of the effluent of a fluid stream entering a flow cell which includes a counterflow heat exchange between the outlet fluid and the inlet fluid and a thermally equilibrating the flow cell with the inlet fluid after it has passed through the counterflow heat exchange and before it enters the flow cell.
