  • Patent number: 12286830
    Abstract: A pocket door guide having a first arm for extending into a pocket slot and seating against an inner side of a wall component that defines a side of the pocket slot and a second arm connected to and extending transversely from the first arm for seating against an end of the wall component. The arms are connected together to form an apex. A roller assembly having a roller is mounted to the second arm and protrudes, or is adjustable to protrude, beyond the apex. The roller assembly includes a roller base having axle supports mounted to the roller base and an axle extending through the axle supports and roller. The roller assembly can slide along the second arm and has fasteners engaging the roller base for fixing the roller assembly at a selected position. The second arm joins the roller base with a dovetail ridge and mating dovetail slot.

  • Patent number: 11078742
    Abstract: A blowout preventer (BOP) health monitoring system includes a controller having a tangible, machine readable-medium storing one or more instructions executable by a processor. The one or more instructions are configured to receive feedback from a sensor, where the feedback is indicative of a pressure within a BOP stack over time, determine a position of a plurality of components of the BOP stack, determine a start point and an end point of a pressure test based on the feedback, determine a decay and a hold duration of the pressure test based on the feedback, the start point, and the end point, determine a health index of the BOP stack based on the decay and the hold duration, and provide an output indicative of a condition of the BOP stack based on the health index.

  • Patent number: 9897712
    Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide a method for acquiring de-ghosted data that can be utilized for calibration of a seismic source (air gun) model. Positions of a plurality of seismic receivers can be determined to enable efficient removal of an interference effect of ghost signals originating from mirrored versions of at least one seismic source that are received at the plurality of seismic receivers (hydrophones). Data (de-ghosted or near de-ghosted) can be acquired from the plurality of seismic receivers located at the determined positions by operating the at least one seismic source. A calibrated model of the at least one seismic source can be prepared based on the acquired (de-ghosted) data.

  • Patent number: 9389879
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes receiving a request for web-widget manipulation. The request includes a scope of manipulation. The method further includes identifying at least one managed web widget as being covered by the scope of manipulation. In addition, the method includes identifying at least one instance of the at least one managed web widget as being covered by the scope of manipulation. Further, the method includes extracting a plurality of user-interface (UI) display items relative to the at least one managed web widget and the at least one instance. The plurality of UI display items includes at least one global UI display item and at least one website-level UI display item.

  • Publication number: 20080074866
    Abstract: A vanity for a visor having a cover attached to a frame at a pivot point is disclosed. An extension arm is connected to the cover and a metal pin extends from the extension arm. At least one metal stamping extends from the frame. When the cover is closed, the extension arm rotates the metal pin into contact with the metal stamping. When the cover is opened, the extension arm rotates the metal pin out of contact with the metal stamping. First and second actuation tabs may be connected to the cover and a pair of stamping legs extend from the frame. When the cover is closed, the first actuation tab prevents contact between the pair of stamping legs but permits contact between the pair of stamping legs when the cover is open. When the cover is opened, the second actuation tab causes contact between the pair of stamping legs.

  • Publication number: 20060098446
    Abstract: A vanity mirror frame (70) has insert-molded electrical contacts (117, 118) for holding a lamp in place in the frame and which, when assembled to a visor core, makes aligned electrical connections with the visor core electrical supply. Further, the vanity mirror frame includes a unique socket (78) for pivotally receiving and holding a mirror cover in place. Detent springs extend between the frame and cover for snap opening and closing of the cover between closed and open positions. The cover includes an additional cam (95, 97) which cooperates with an electrical switch when the cover is open to provide operating power to the lamp.
