Patent number: 11306384Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method, system, and apparatus that adds one or more reinforcing structures to a thermally sprayed layer of metallic material onto a substrate to reinforce and/or further support the formed substrate coating. The reinforcing structure may be a metallic or non-metallic wire, filament, whisker, mesh, or similar structure and may be coupled to the substrate before or during the thermal spray process, thereby embedding the reinforcing structure(s) into the resulting thermal spray matrix. The type, material, size, shape, and application technique of the reinforcing structure is variable based upon the desired characteristics of the ultimate coating. The durable coating may be formed by a plurality of separate and/or distinct layers. The resultant coating (e.g., the reinforcing structure(s) with the one or more thermal spray layers) provides numerous benefits, including increased strength and resistance to spalling, breaking, cracking, deforming, crack formation, and corrosion.Type: GrantFiled: June 15, 2018Date of Patent: April 19, 2022Assignee: Resops, LLCInventors: Joe L.

Patent number: 11225723Abstract: A system and a method are provided for making hypochlorous acid using saltwater with sodium bicarbonate. The system includes an electrolytic cell, a quantity of saltwater solution, and a quantity of sodium bicarbonate. The quantity of saltwater solution is poured into the electrolytic cell and then undergoes an electrolytic process. As a result of the quantity of saltwater solution going through the electrolytic process, a hypochlorous acid solution is yielded. In order to ensure a pure hypochlorous acid solution is formed, the quantity of sodium bicarbonate can be added into the electrolytic cell along with the quantity of saltwater solution before the electrolytic process or the quantity of sodium bicarbonate can be added into the hypochlorous acid solution after the hypochlorous acid solution is yielded. This process adjusts the pH level of the hypochlorous acid solution, and thus, produces a purer hypochlorous acid solution.Type: GrantFiled: March 30, 2021Date of Patent: January 18, 2022Inventors: Hien Tu Le, Gia Thanh Le, Joseph Tu Le

Patent number: 11110030Abstract: A massage chair includes a back massage system and a thigh massage system with a roller mechanism configured to move a roller in a three dimensional orbital motion. The roller mechanism is driven by a single motor that can change the direction in operation. Also included is a roller motion drive element within the roller mechanism. A shaft is configured to pass through the roller motion drive element in an offset non-perpendicular angle relative to the end face thereby forming an angle between the shaft and the end face that is less than 85 degrees. The offset causes the orbital motion of the roller when rotated. The electronics of the massage chair facilitate facial recognition and a medical assessment device to detect bodily characteristics. The backrest of the massage chair can elongate to stretch the user. A plurality of airbags are also available for the twisting of the user.Type: GrantFiled: November 16, 2020Date of Patent: September 7, 2021Assignee: Luraco, IncInventors: Kevin Le, Thanh Le, Matthew Palmore
