Publication number: 20240068318Abstract: A hanger assembly has at least one elongated channel disposed on the outer surface of the hanger assembly. An alignment/anti-rotation tab member is moveably disposed within each elongated channel and can selectively alternate between a first retracted configuration and a second extended configuration. In the second extended configuration, each alignment/anti-rotation tab member can be received within a mating channel along the inner surface of the central through bore of the wellhead. Each extended alignment/anti-rotation tab member can engage against a mating recess or channel in order to align and orient the hanger assembly within the central through bore of the wellhead (permitting orientation and alignment of ports in the hanger assembly and the surrounding wellhead), while also preventing rotation of the hanger assembly relative to the wellhead.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 23, 2023Publication date: February 29, 2024Inventor: JACK ALLEN

Patent number: 11428053Abstract: In various implementations, a hydraulic fracturing piping system may include one or more rotatable elbows to connect other components of the hydraulic fracturing piping system. Using rotatable elbows may facilitate connections in the hydraulic fracturing piping system. For example, when using a rotatable elbow, in the assembly of the system, the rotatable elbow may be capable of rotating to different positions to facilitate alignment of the hydraulic fracturing manifold and hydraulic fracturing stack (e.g., christmas tree), when the hydraulic fracturing manifold and the hydraulic fracturing stack are not in alignment. In some implementations, the elbow may include an internal radial transition (e.g., of approximately 90 degrees) to control the media being injected into the wellbore. The internal radial transition of the elbow may create a more uniform media flow and/or less turbulence, which may significantly reduce erosion of the inner surfaces the bore of the elbow.Type: GrantFiled: September 9, 2020Date of Patent: August 30, 2022Assignee: VAULT PRESSURE CONTROL, LLCInventor: Jack Allen

Publication number: 20220239741Abstract: Dynamic storage management in cloud storage synchronization is provided. A limit may be specified for amount of data associated with hydrated content in local storage. Upon detecting the limit being exceeded, the system may automatically begin to dehydrate files in local storage and replace them with placeholder files. Placeholders may also be specified on by default and content may initially synchronize as placeholders. As the user hydrates content, some files that were previously hydrated may be reverted to the placeholder state as the limit for amount of data in local storage is approached or exceeded. In some examples, specific limits may not be defined, but content may be heuristically dehydrated based on usage and size. In yet another example, the synchronization and local content dehydration may be performed on a per-folder basis.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 19, 2022Publication date: July 28, 2022Inventors: Jack Allen NICHOLS, Ed AVERETT

Patent number: 10936548Abstract: Systems, components, devices, and methods for synchronizing files between a local file system and a server are provided. In an example, synchronization of individual files is paused by placing the individual files in a hold state. A non-limiting example method accesses a file stored on the local file system for synchronization with an associated file on the server and determines whether differences between the file and the associated file prevent synchronization. When determined that differences between the file and the associated file prevent synchronization, the method places the file in a hold state. The hold state pauses synchronization of the content in the file with the content of the associated file. In some examples, the method continues to synchronize topological changes to files that have been placed in the hold state and/or resumes synchronization after it is determined that the file is no longer different than the associated file.Type: GrantFiled: June 30, 2016Date of Patent: March 2, 2021Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Yisheng Chen, Amnon Itamar Govrin, Francisco Jose Garcia-Ascanio, Jack Allen Nichols

Patent number: 10929350Abstract: A system to enable a user to generate copies of files at a client device and to cause a file hosting platform to generate backups of these copies in a cloud database without transferring file content data for these files between the client device and the cloud database. When a user copies a file from a first folder on a client device to a second folder on the client device, the system may determine that the file content data for this file is already present in the cloud database. Then, rather than uploading the file content data to the cloud database from the client device, the system may cause a file hosting platform to access the file content data directly from the cloud database to perform a file copy operation.Type: GrantFiled: December 4, 2017Date of Patent: February 23, 2021Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Neal Robert Christiansen, Ping Xie, Trevor Van Leeuwen, Jack Allen Nichols, Brian David Jones
