Publication number: 20240075212Abstract: A hand grip adapter for a syringe formed from a body having a first end wall and a second end wall with a support base therebetween. The support base includes a centrally disposed receptacle for receipt of a syringe flange. The first end wall formed perpendicular to the support base having a curvature outer surface to conform to the palm of an individual's hand. The second end wall is formed parallel to the first end wall and includes four finger depressions wherein an individual can place their index, middle, ring, and little finger. At least one of the depressions includes a rim forming a circular opening for ease of grasping. The first side wall is configured to rest in the palm of an individual's hand and said second end wall is configured to receive the finger tips from the individual's hand with a syringe secured in the support base.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 2, 2022Publication date: March 7, 2024Inventors: Donald Russell Peterson, John W. Birk, Simon Kudernatsch

Publication number: 20240075232Abstract: A bite block to assist with upper Gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopy procedures. A main body of the bite block employs a rectangular shaped lumen to provide a large access port for insertion of variety of endoscopes and endoscopy equipment, individually or multiple instruments at the same time, and to guide them more precisely into the esophagus. The main body having a lumen shaped with respect to the anatomy of the oral cavity, where a curvature of the body is designed to act as a tongue depressor preventing airway blockage due to tongue collapse. Assigned channels run along the entire length of the device and are used to secure tubing in place for oxygen and monitor maximal concentration of carbon dioxide.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 2, 2022Publication date: March 7, 2024Inventors: Donald Russell Peterson, John W. Birk, Simon Kudernatsch

Patent number: 9490917Abstract: Apparatus for and method of processing radio frequency signals, the method including: obtaining a signal indicative of a first frequency (e.g. by obtaining a sample of a transmitted signal), the first frequency being a frequency of the transmitted signal; and using the signal indicative of a first frequency, establishing a second frequency depending on the first frequency, the second frequency being a frequency to which to tune a filter for filtering a received signal. An antenna for receiving and/or transmitting a signal may be a co-site antenna with respect to at least one other antenna.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 2011Date of Patent: November 8, 2016Assignee: BAE SYSTEMS PLCInventors: Lawrence Cain, Simon Russell Radford

Publication number: 20160005607Abstract: A method may include providing a substrate having a surface that defines a substrate plane and a substrate feature that extends from the substrate plane; directing an ion beam comprising angled ions to the substrate at a non-zero angle with respect to a perpendicular to the substrate plane, wherein a first portion of the substrate feature is exposed to the ion beam and wherein a second portion of the substrate feature is not exposed to the ion beam; directing molecules of a molecular species to the substrate wherein the molecules of the molecular species cover the substrate feature; and providing a second species to react with the molecular species, wherein selective growth of a layer comprising the molecular species and the second species takes place such that a first thickness of the layer grown on the first portion is different from a second thickness grown on the second portion.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 21, 2014Publication date: January 7, 2016Inventors: Simon Russell, Thomas R. Omstead, Anthony Renau

Patent number: 8822370Abstract: Aspects of the invention relate to hydrogenation catalysts, and hydrogenation processes using these catalysts, having particular characteristics, in terms of the amount and type of metal hydrogenation component (or catalytic constituent), as well as the support or substrate. The catalyst compositions, comprising both a noble metal and a lanthanide element on a substantially non-porous substrate, provide advantageous performance characteristics, including conversion, selectivity, and activity stability, as demanded in industrial hydrogenation and selective hydrogenation applications.Type: GrantFiled: May 16, 2011Date of Patent: September 2, 2014Assignee: UOP LLCInventors: Paula L. Bogdan, Valeria Nemeth, Simon Russell Bare

Patent number: 8693626Abstract: Methods are disclosed utilizing synchrotron X-ray microscopy including x-ray fluorescence and x-ray absorption spectra to probe elemental distribution and elemental speciation within a material, and particularly a solid that may have one or more elements distributed on a solid substrate. Representative materials are relatively homogeneous in composition on the macroscale but relatively heterogeneous on the microscale. The analysis of such materials, particularly on a macroscale at which their heterogeneous nature can be observed, provides valuable insights into the relationships or correlations between localized concentrations of elements and/or their species, and concentrations of other components of the materials. Sample preparation methods, involving the use of a reinforcing agent, which are advantageously used in such methods are also disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: June 17, 2011Date of Patent: April 8, 2014Assignee: UOP LLCInventors: Simon Russell Bare, Shelly D Kelly, Wharton Sinkler, Nan Greenlay
