  • Patent number: 9517181
    Abstract: A cap for a bottle includes a first portion, a second portion, and an end piece having a concave body and a hole. The second portion is configured to retain a first ingredient, and the bottle is configured to retain a second ingredient. The first portion may be threadingly secured to the second portion while the second portion plugs the bottle and the end piece is secured to the second portion. Unthreading of the first portion from the second portion causes the first ingredient to fall through the hole and mix with the second ingredient in the bottle.

  • Patent number: 9109427
    Abstract: A system for plugging an oil well after a blowout comprises a hollow drill string. A connecting device is loosely situated around the string. The connecting device has an upper surface, a side surface and a lower surface having a recess. An inflatable bladder comprises an impermeable material. A skirt has a plurality of rods, each of which are pivotally connected to the lower surface. The first fastening ring is configured to selectively allow the bladder to transition from an unfilled state to a filled state. A second fastening ring is configured to selectively allow the skirt to transition from a closed position to an open position. A stop having a beveled edge is secured to the drill string. The recess is configured to allow the connecting device to mate with the stop beveled edge.

  • Patent number: 8599195
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for modeling all matter by modeling, truncating, and creating general polyhedra without requiring advanced computer processors and computer memory according to one embodiment includes at least one processor, means for inputting vertex data to the processor, a display in data communication with the processor, and computer memory coupled to the processor. The computer memory has recorded within it machine readable instructions for storing vertex data previously input to the processor, truncating a polyhedron created using the vertex data, and actuating the display. The instructions for creating and truncating a polyhedron utilize length data and angle data for triangles formed from the vertex data.

  • Publication number: 20120000656
    Abstract: An apparatus for producing oil from a well comprises a flexible semi-circular shaped skirt with an indentation. A plurality of rods is secured to the skirt and form radially emanating channels in the skirt. The skirt is secured to a hollow drill string via the indentation. The drill string has a drill bit at one end, a distal section above the drill bit, and a holding section above the distal section to which the skirt is operatively coupled. A movable sleeve is selectively wrapped around the skirt to keep the skirt in a closed position. A release that is interactive with the sleeve selectively allows the skirt to move from the closed position to an open position, and an outer area covered by the skirt increases as the skirt moves from the closed position to the open position. The open skirt abuts against and plugs the well.
