Publication number: 20240059462Abstract: Drink bottles, or drink containers with cap assemblies that include a drink spout. The drink spout is pivotally coupled to a base of the cap assembly and includes a mouthpiece. In some embodiments, the cap assembly includes a dust cover configured to at least partially cover the mouthpiece when the mouthpiece and pivotal mount are in the stowed position. In some embodiments, the cap assembly includes a dispensing guard configured to at least partially cover the dispensing outlet when the mouthpiece and pivotal mount are in the stowed position. In some embodiments, the cap assembly includes a handle, which may include at least one guard for the drink spout and/or mouthpiece.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 2, 2023Publication date: February 22, 2024Inventors: Robert CHOI, Barley A. FORSMAN, Jeremy GALTEN

Patent number: 11884608Abstract: A system and a process for dimerizing cyclopentadiene (CPD) including producing a C6+C7 rich bottoms stream and a C5 rich side draw from a debutanizer, where the C5 rich side draw and at least a portion of the C6+C7 rich bottoms stream are directed to a dimerizer where the CPD is thermally dimerized to dicyclopentadiene (DCPD). DCPD is more stable than CPD and thus safer to handle.Type: GrantFiled: April 26, 2022Date of Patent: January 30, 2024Assignee: KELLOGG BROWN & ROOT LLCInventors: David Sellinger, Robert Choi, Quo-Chen Yeh, Alok Srivastava, Kristine E. Hamilton, Michael A. Radzicki
