Patent number: 9228369Abstract: A portable protection system including a selectively collapsible truss for supporting a protection member. The truss is movable between a collapsed position and an expanded position. The protection member includes at least one layer of ballistic armor material for disrupting a projectile. The truss includes suitable connectors for releasably connecting the protection member to the truss, and also suitable connectors for releasably connecting the truss to an adjoining truss so as to form a protection wall.Type: GrantFiled: July 3, 2012Date of Patent: January 5, 2016Assignee: Dynamic Defense Materials, LLCInventors: John Carberry, George Forsythe, Harvey Kliman, Katherine Leighton, John Garnier, Ray Ballario, Wiktor Serafin, Jason Ickes

Patent number: 8945395Abstract: A vessel for use in settling particulate matter from a fluid stream is provided. Fluid is introduced to the vessel through an angled inlet, with flow into the vessel both disrupted and deflected by an inlet baffle, to redirect the fluid stream parallel to a horizontal axis of the vessel. The velocity of the fluid stream is reduced within the vessel, allowing the particulate matter to settle along the bottom of the vessel.Type: GrantFiled: November 29, 2011Date of Patent: February 3, 2015Assignee: Bonavista Energy CorporationInventors: Travis Bjarne Tweit, Robert John Garnier

Patent number: 8251940Abstract: A vibration dampening device is a patch with one or more step members that have distal ends extending from the patch. The patch is removably engaged or adhered to a wearer's skin. With the patch engaged, the distal ends of the step members have freedom of movement with respect to the patch. The patch optionally may further include one or more wing sections integrally formed therein that also have freedom of movement with respect to the portion of the patch engaged or adhered to skin. Step member and/or wing section movement counteracts longitudinal and/or radial vibrations traveling through soft tissue and musculature to dampen such vibrations.Type: GrantFiled: June 4, 2004Date of Patent: August 28, 2012Inventors: Charles Harris, Jr., John Garnier

Patent number: 7478579Abstract: An encapsulated ballistic structure for limiting the transfer of impact force from a projectile. An encapsulant substantially encases and confines a core material. The core material absorbs a part of the compressive stress of a projectile impact. The encapsulant absorbs a part of the tensile stress of a projectile impact. The encapsulant is fabricated from an organic compound having a greater tensile strength than the tensile strength of the core material.Type: GrantFiled: July 20, 2006Date of Patent: January 20, 2009Inventors: John Carberry, John Garnier, Katherine Leighton

Publication number: 20050131322Abstract: A vibration dampening device includes a strap or band wrapped around a human body part. The strap includes one or more wing sections, either integrally formed or engaged thereto, that extend beyond the nominal width of the strap and have freedom of movement with respect to the strap. The distal ends of step members engaged to the strap may form wing sections. Wing section movement counteracts longitudinal vibrations traveling through soft tissue and musculature to dampen such vibrations. Optionally, a tension limiter may be provided to help maintain wrapping tension at or below a desired level, such as 3 pounds-force or below, which applied at a strap area of 0.093 square inches is about 32 psi.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 12, 2003Publication date: June 16, 2005Applicant: Wristband Enterprises LLCInventors: Charles Harris, John Garnier
