Abstract: A system connecting one more flow lines and includes a connector housing and a connector. The connector housing comprises a first connection passage formed through a wall of the connector housing. The connector is disposed withing the connector housing. A first annular flow path connection is formed between the connector housing and the connector. The first housing annular flow path connection is formed by a first housing annular flow path connection groove. The first housing annular flow path connection groove is formed in an outer side surface of the connector. Alternatively, the first annular flow path connection is formed by a combination of the first housing annular flow path connection groove axially aligned with the first connector annular flow path connection groove. The first connection passage through the connector housing intersects with the first annular flow path connection. A related method includes connecting inserting the connector into the connector housing.

Abstract: A pump for delivering a fluid includes a pump housing that defines at least one reservoir having a circumferentially open first end, a circumferentially closed second end and a chamber to receive the fluid. The pump includes a plunger assembly having at least one plunger arm and a cannula fluidly coupled to the plunger arm to dispense the fluid from the pump. The plunger arm is receivable within the first end of the reservoir, and the at least one plunger arm defining an internal conduit to receive the fluid from the at least one fluid reservoir. The internal conduit is fluidly coupled to the cannula. The plunger assembly is movable in a first direction relative to the pump housing to advance the plunger arm within the fluid reservoir to dispense the fluid from the fluid reservoir out of the pump via the cannula.

Abstract: An apparatus is disclosed as including a first material volume with at least a hardened portion and a second material volume that includes at least two layers. The first material volume is composed of at least a hardenable alloy of steel. The at least two layers is located adjacent to a first surface comprising the hardened portion of the first material volume. The at least two layers includes a first layer composed of at least a ductile low-carbon alloy of steel and a second layer composed of at least a cobalt-based hardfacing over the first layer. The apparatus is applicable in preparing shear ram blocks and shear ram blades to provide a hardened blade edge with an adjacent hardfacing surface.

Abstract: Fire-rated wall construction components and wall systems for use in building construction. Embodiments can include tracks for holding studs which incorporate various geometries capable of receiving fire-retardant material, including but not limited to intumescent material. The fire-retardant material can be attached to compressible backer rods inserted within deflection gaps in the wall systems such that the fire-retardant material expands and seals gaps and/or areas between the tracks and wall components such as ceilings, floors, and drywall. Various assemblies and methods can be used to cover the deflection gap.

Abstract: A golf club head includes a forward section and a body section to define a closed internal volume. The forward section has a strike face, a frame that surrounds the strike face, and a flange extending from the frame. The body section is formed from a molded polymeric material, and includes a forward edge that defines a receiving portion adapted to receive the flange and a weight receiving feature spaced apart from the forward edge. The body section further includes a reinforcing structure protruding into the internal volume and extending between the weight receiving feature and the forward edge. The reinforcing structure is operative to transfer impact loads between the weight receiving feature and the metallic forward section.

Abstract: Systems and techniques for storing and analyzing data. For instance, computing device(s) may store sensor data in first data files included within a first data buffer of a first memory, which may include a cache memory. The computing device(s) may then store metadata in metadata files included in a first metadata buffer of the first memory, where the first metadata files correspond to the first data files. After storing the data, the computing device(s) may determine that the sensor data represents an event. As such, the computing device(s) may store the sensor data in second data files included in a second data buffer of a second memory, which may include an archive memory. Additionally, the computing device(s) may store metadata in second metadata files included in a second metadata buffer of the second memory, where the second metadata files correspond to the second data files.
