  • Publication number: 20230076994
    Abstract: A container for a plurality of articles comprising a main body, a hollow member fixedly coupled to an end of the main body and a cup member movably coupled to the hollow member. When the cup member is in an open position the cup member and the hollow member are spaced defining an opening. A slider is movably coupled to the cup member. The slider has a spring, such that when the slider is moved relative to the cup member in a radial direction the slider carries an article towards the opening and the spring on the slider is flexed. After dispensing, the spring gradually relaxes, resetting the slider.

  • Patent number: 10787900
    Abstract: A differential pressure indicator (DPI) for use with a downhole isolation valve includes a tubular mandrel for assembly as part of a casing string and for receiving a tubular string. The mandrel has a stop shoulder and a piston shoulder. The DPI further includes a tubular housing for assembly as part of the casing string and for receiving the tubular string. The housing is movable relative to the mandrel between an extended position and a retracted position and has a stop shoulder and a piston shoulder. The DPI further includes a hydraulic chamber formed between the piston shoulders and a coupling in communication with the hydraulic chamber and for connection to a sensing line. The housing is movable relative to the mandrel and to the extended position in response to tension exerted on the DPI.

  • Patent number: 10180453
    Abstract: Methods and systems for sourcing and/or sinking current from power supplies of differing voltage levels. A driving circuit may, for example, receive power from first and second power supplies, where the first power supply provides current to the driving circuit at a first voltage level and the second power supply provides current to the driving circuit at a second voltage level, and where the first voltage is greater than the second voltage. As a result, the first power supply allows the driving circuit to provide current over a wide voltage range, and the second power supply allows the driving circuit to provide current at lower voltages with less power consumption.

  • Patent number: 9930935
    Abstract: A single-sided or reversible belt includes a single-sided or double-sided belt strap without any adjusting hole, any popular belt buckle of a frame style or plate style with its prong or projection removed, and new belt fastening means. The belt buckle is providable with a retainer loop on the rear side adjacent an outer end to keep the outer end portion of the belt buckle from dangling after belt buckling. A first fastening element is installed on underside or double sides of a belt strap free end portion, for example. An adjustably slidable locking belt clip is then used to engage a belt strap fixed end portion and carries a mating second fastening element. For belt fastening, the belt clip is manually slid along the engaged belt strap end portion to keep the two fastening elements aligned, leading to having them fastened together. This kind of belt may be used on such articles as trousers and shoes.
