  • Publication number: 20220106183
    Abstract: An apparatus, system, and method for receiving proppant into a storage container is disclosed. In certain embodiments, an apparatus for receiving proppant into a storage container may comprise a housing that further comprises a first planar surface having an outlet port and a second planar surface substantially perpendicular to the first planar surface, the second planar surface having a tubular slot formed therein. In certain embodiments, the apparatus comprises a diverter plate coupled to the housing and adjacent the outlet port, the diverter plate being oriented at an acute angle to the first planar surface of the housing.

  • Patent number: 10905940
    Abstract: A baseball table game playable by a batter and a pitcher, the baseball table game including a playing field surface, a ball launching device disposed at a first corner of the playing field surface to expel a ball therefrom toward a second corner opposite the first corner, and a batting arm holder disposed at the second corner of the playing field surface to hold an arm of the batter while the batter uses a bat to attempt to hit the ball expelled from the ball launching device.

  • Patent number: 6011981
    Abstract: An oxide superconducting multilayered thin film structure having a laminated layer structure of oxide superconductor thin film layers and non-superconductor thin film layers constituted by a combination of material groups for making strain free interfaces among both thin film layers. For example, an oxide superconductor multilayered film constituted by a laminated layer structure where thin films of an oxide superconductor represented by the chemical formula of M'Ba.sub.2 Cu.sub.3 O.sub.7-.delta. (M'; a rare earth element of Nd, Sm, Eu or the like or an alloy of these, .delta.; oxygen depletion amount) and thin films of an oxide represented by the chemical formula of M*Ba.sub.2 Cu.sub.3 O.sub.7-.delta. (M*; an element of Pr, Sc or the like or an alloy of these, .delta.; oxygen depletion amount) are alternately stacked. The oxide thin films are thin films fabricated by a pulsed laser deposition process or a sputtering process. A Josephson device can be provided by using the multilayered film.
