Publication number: 20240081697Abstract: A near-infrared spectroscopy system comprises a substrate, a light source emitting a set of wavelengths, an optical detector detecting the set of wavelengths, a processor in electronic communication with the light source bank and/or the optical detector, and a memory device in electronic communication with the processor. The light source bank, optical detector, processor, and memory device are mounted on the substrate, and a battery is in electronic communication with at least one of these components. Program instructions direct the processor to calculate an oxygenation level, compare that oxygenation level to a predetermined threshold, and optionally, activate a feedback device. A method of detecting an oxygenation level comprises mounting the system in a wearable article, calculating a baseline oxygenation level, regularly executing the program instructions to calculate the oxygenation level, and activating the feedback device.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 4, 2022Publication date: March 14, 2024Applicant: NIRSense LLCInventors: Jared Dale ALLEN, Bretton Robert GOLDBACH, Areej HABIB, Jason Michael STROHMAIER, Ryan Casey BOUTWELL

Patent number: 11846358Abstract: A rotary valve includes a rotary valve body defining a passageway from a first passageway port at an axial end surface of the rotary valve body to a second passageway port at an outer circumferential surface thereof. A valve housing has an inner surface defining each of an opening rotatably receiving the rotary valve body therein, a first housing port through which a fluid flows transverse to the axis of rotation of the rotary valve body, and a second housing port through which the fluid flows transverse to the axis of rotation of the rotary valve body. A flow path is formed between the inner surface of the valve housing and the outer surface of the rotary valve body with the flow path providing fluid communication between the first housing port of the valve housing and the first passageway port of the rotary valve housing.Type: GrantFiled: July 26, 2022Date of Patent: December 19, 2023Assignee: HANON SYSTEMSInventors: Emma Michelle Grissom, Jason Dale Perkins, Sunil Kumar Harihar Onkarachari

Patent number: 11724325Abstract: The disclosure relates to a brazing method for joining substrates, in particular where one of the substrates is difficult to wet with molten braze material. The method includes formation of a porous metal layer on a first substrate to assist wetting of the first substrate with a molten braze metal, which in turn permits joining of the first substrate with a second substrate via a braze metal later in an assembled brazed joint. Ceramic substrates can be particularly difficult to wet with molten braze metals, and the disclosed method can be used to join a ceramic substrate to another substrate. The brazed joint can be incorporated into a solid-oxide fuel cell, for example as a stack component thereof, in particular when the first substrate is a ceramic substrate and the joined substrate is a metallic substrate.Type: GrantFiled: November 4, 2021Date of Patent: August 15, 2023Assignees: BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF MICHIGAN STATE UNIVERSITY, DELPHI TECHNOLOGIES, LLCInventors: Jason Dale Nicholas, Quan Zhou, Thomas Rector Bieler, Rick Daniel Kerr

Publication number: 20220167501Abstract: The disclosure generally relates to a method of creating patterned metallic circuits (e.g., silver circuits) on a substrate (e.g., a ceramic substrate). A porous metal interlayer (e.g., porous nickel) is applied to the substrate to improve wetting and adhesion of the patterned metal circuit material to the substrate. The substrate is heated to a temperature sufficient to melt the patterned metal circuit material but not the porous metal interlayer. Spreading of molten metal circuit material on the substrate is controlled by the porous metal interlayer, which can itself be patterned, such as having a defined circuit pattern. Thick-film silver or other metal circuits can be custom designed in complicated shapes for high temperature/high power applications. The materials designated for the circuit design allows for a low-cost method of generating silver circuits other metal circuits on a ceramic substrate.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 10, 2022Publication date: May 26, 2022Inventors: Jason Dale Nicholas, Quan Zhou, Thomas Rector Bieler
