  • Publication number: 20240175720
    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to obstruction detector assemblies, systems, and related methods for detecting obstructions along oil and gas equipment. In one implementation, an obstruction detector assembly includes a driver housing having an internal chamber and a plurality of fastener openings. The obstruction detector assembly includes a driver stem disposed at least partially in the internal chamber of the driver housing. The driver stem is movable partially out of the internal chamber of the driver housing. The obstruction detector assembly includes a driver head disposed outside of the driver housing and coupled to the driver stem. In one implementation, movement of the driver stem and the driver head is used to detect obstructions (such as a wireline) in a wellhead structure. In one implementation, movement of the driver stem and the driver head is used to detect obstructions (such as sand) in a valve.

  • Publication number: 20240175171
    Abstract: A comforter has a first fabric sheet and a second fabric sheet. Each of the fabric sheets include a knit cover layer formed from a base yarn, and knitted into this base layer is a fibrous fluffy yarn in such a manner that a looped pile results. The looped pile is then sheared to create a cut pile nap. The first and second fabric sheets are stitched together around a perimeter with perimeter stitching to contain a fill material between the first and second fabric sheets and within the perimeter stitching. The first and second fabric sheets are also stitched together via lateral stitching that extends laterally at least partially across the comforter at spaced longitudinal intervals, so that the first and second fabric sheets are connected via the longitudinal stitching and movement of the fill material is constrained.

  • Publication number: 20240172582
    Abstract: An agricultural machine includes a body configured to traverse a field, the body carrying tillage elements configured to engage soil. At least one lift element is configured to raise the tillage elements above ground. A sensor is configured to detect a position of tillage elements above the ground. A computing device is configured to compare the detected position to a reference to detect damage to the agricultural machine. A method includes generating a first representation of tillage elements, traversing a field with the tillage elements engaging soil of the field, raising the tillage elements above ground to disengage the soil of the field, generating a second representation of the tillage elements while the tillage elements are above the ground, and comparing the second representation to the first representation to detect damage to the agricultural implement. Generating and comparing the representations are performed by at least one computing device.
