  • Patent number: 11266254
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a crib liner suitable for use with a crib, wherein the crib has a perimeter, and wherein a plurality of spaced vertical support elements are provided along the perimeter. In one embodiment, the crib liner may include a first panel configured to cover a portion of the spaced vertical support elements. The first panel may have first and second ends, a breathable body portion, a bottom border, and a top border. In some embodiments, the first panel may further comprise side borders. Fastening mechanisms may be provided at either or both ends for attaching the first panel to the crib. The breathable body portion may have an air permeability of between 385 CFM and 1530 CFM, a light permeability of between 47 and 99%, and a CO2 rebreathing value of less than 20%.

  • Publication number: 20210315392
    Abstract: In general a crib includes a first and second side that each have a first perimeter support having a bottom support portion, a first breathable material retained by the perimeter support, and a lateral support member that further supports the breathable material in a position within the perimeter support and attached to the perimeter support. The crib also includes third and fourth sides, wherein the first, second, third and fourth sides define an interior. The crib further includes a mattress support platform positioned in the interior and movable between a first position proximate the lateral support member and a second, lower position proximate the bottom portion of the perimeter support. The breathable material has an air permeability of between 385 CFM to 1530 CFM and a light permeability of between 47 and 99%.

  • Patent number: 10795325
    Abstract: Processes and systems for preparing sections of pipeline pipe for machine processing to form pin and box ends for assembly into pipelines using mechanical press-fit pipe joints. The prepared pipe sections are prepared to be fully measured and documented during both manufacturing and assembly. Installed pipelines include pipeline data monitoring systems coupled to a pipeline data management center for receiving, archiving, and analysis of the data records to aid in administration, operation and management, and troubleshooting of pipelines.

  • Patent number: 4738145
    Abstract: The torque imposed on premium thread connections between tubular goods is monitored and plotted as a function of time rather than the number of turns. In this manner, the torque at which "shoulder", either by metal-to-metal sealing contact or otherwise, is achieved during make-up of the premium connection can be detected. Further, torque response of the connection after shoulder may be monitored. In addition, torque conditions during back out or disconnection may be monitored. Data obtained indicate if connections and seals are acceptable or not and often furnish evidence of the reason for certain types of unsatisfactory connections.
