Patent number: 11932503Abstract: A proppant delivery assembly receives and supports a plurality of containers having proppant stored therein. A cradle has a top surface which receives and supports the plurality of containers when positioned thereon. The cradle enables the plurality of containers to dispense the proppant stored therein. A proppant mover is positioned to underlie and extend along the top surface of the cradle aligned with the plurality of containers to receive proppant from the plurality of containers. The proppant mover carries proppant away from the plurality of containers. A chute is coupled to the cradle for receiving proppant from the proppant mover and directing the proppant to a blender hopper. A hood assembly is disposed at an end of the chute opposite the proppant mover for directing a vacuum air flow that removes a volume of air containing proppant dust particles directed from the chute.Type: GrantFiled: August 15, 2022Date of Patent: March 19, 2024Assignee: SANDBOX ENTERPRISES, LLCInventors: Joshua Oren, Marty Boros, Pete Berveiler, Dave Hansen, Colin Campbell, Mike Edwards, Thomas Massalone

Patent number: 11603460Abstract: Crosslinkable insulation materials, which are commonly halogen-free, for use in wire and cable applications are provided. The insulation include a crosslinkable thermoplastic polymer and flame retardant material. The flame retardant material may include a metal hydroxide flame retardant, such as a magnesium, calcium, zinc and/or aluminum hydroxide. The crosslinkable thermoplastic polymer includes silane-grafted polymer blend, which includes a polyolefin plastomer blended with one or more other thermoplastic polymers. The crosslinkable thermoplastic polymer may be curable by exposure to moisture and may include moisture curable silane functionality in the crosslinkable thermoplastic polymer.Type: GrantFiled: August 3, 2016Date of Patent: March 14, 2023Assignee: AEI Compounds Ltd.Inventor: Mike Edward Slevin

Patent number: 10926967Abstract: A system is disclosed for conveying proppant from a container to fracking operation equipment. The system includes a proppant delivery assembly having a frame supporting the container adjacent a proppant mover having a conveyor, a shroud enclosing a portion of the conveyor, a proppant chamber coupled to the shroud and a chute coupled to the proppant chamber. The system also includes a dust collection assembly fluidly coupled to the proppant mover to collect the dust particles contained therein. The dust collection assembly includes an air mover, a hood with a dust receptacle, and ductwork coupling the air mover to the dust receptacle. An air flow is generated along a flow path through the dust receptacle and the ductwork to the air mover such that a suction pressure generated by the air mover is sufficient to only capture and remove the dust particles, thus reducing a risk of capturing the proppant.Type: GrantFiled: April 28, 2020Date of Patent: February 23, 2021Assignee: SANDBOX ENTERPRISES, LLCInventors: Joshua Oren, Marty Boros, Pete Berveiler, Dave Hansen, Colin Campbell, Mike Edwards, Thomas Massalone

Patent number: 10676296Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure a system for capturing proppant dust particles when positioned at a fracking operation site including a proppant delivery assembly to receive one or more containers having proppant stored therein. The system dispenses the proppant from the one or more containers and delivers the proppant to other fracking operation equipment. Moreover, the system includes a dust collection assembly positioned proximate and associated with the proppant delivery assembly to capture dust particles released by movement and settling of the proppant when being dispensed and delivered by the proppant delivery assembly. The dust collection assembly is positioned to direct an air flow in a flow path overlying the dust particles to capture the dust particles and move the dust particles away from the proppant thereby reducing risk of dust exposure to fracking operation site personnel.Type: GrantFiled: March 20, 2018Date of Patent: June 9, 2020Assignee: OREN TECHNOLOGIES, LLCInventors: Joshua Oren, Marty Boros, Pete Berveiler, Dave Hansen, Colin Campbell, Mike Edwards, Thomas Massalone
