Patent number: 11084447Abstract: A “universal” airbag system according to embodiments of the present disclosure provides for occupant protection in both conventional and unconventional seating orientations (rotated, reclined, and lying positions), when impacted in various directions. The universal airbag system features a seat mounted airbag which may be used with a seat-integrated seatbelt. The material may be selected, constructed, and attached such that it does not fail or tear under application-specific loading conditions, is strong enough to capture the occupant, has the elongation/expansion properties for a flexible yet stable shape with excursion limiting functionality, and is optionally inflatable.Type: GrantFiled: August 6, 2019Date of Patent: August 10, 2021Assignee: NIO USA, Inc.Inventors: Jeffrey D. Rupp, Samantha L. Schoell, Jane Williams, Colin J. Stevens, Teh Feng Fang

Publication number: 20190276729Abstract: A process for reducing the permeability to water of a thief zone of a porous and permeable subterranean petroleum reservoir includes injecting a composition comprising a dispersion of betainised crosslinked polymeric microparticles in an aqueous fluid down a well and into a thief zone. The betainised crosslinked polymeric microparticles have a transition temperature that is at or below the maximum temperature encountered in the thief zone and greater than the maximum temperature encountered in the well. The betainised crosslinked polymeric microparticles are solvated by water, expand in size and optionally aggregate in the thief zone when they encounter a temperature greater than the transition temperature so as to reduce the permeability of the thief zone to water.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 11, 2017Publication date: September 12, 2019Applicant: BP Exploration Operating Company LimitedInventors: Emma Jane CHAPMAN, Rachel Kerry O'REILLY, Helen WILLCOCK, Rebecca Jane WILLIAMS
