Patent number: 12226866Abstract: A foreign object debris (FOD) collection drill attachment for attaching to a drill includes with a drill guide bushing holder, a chip breaker bushing, an air supply line, a chip evacuation line, a chip collection hopper, and an air manifold. The drill guide bushing holder includes an inlet channel receiving air from the air supply line, an outlet channel, and a holder center channel. The inlet channel and the outlet channel each open into the holder center channel through which an end protrusion of the chip breaker bushing extends to break up FOD on a drill bit of the drill. The cross-sectional area of the inlet channel is smaller than the cross-sectional area of the outlet channel, creating a Venturi effect between the inlet channel and the outlet channel to pull FOD away from the drill bit and through the chip evacuation line to the chip collection hopper.Type: GrantFiled: March 23, 2023Date of Patent: February 18, 2025Assignee: Spirit AeroSystems, Inc.Inventors: Todd B.

Patent number: 12174799Abstract: A cloud-native global file system is augmented to include a file exporter (or, more generally, a file export tool) that facilitates an enterprise customer's use of a cloud-native tool that would otherwise be unable to operate against the global file system's underlying file system representation. In a typical use case, the file exporter is configured to extract in a native object format and to an unencrypted target all or a portion of a volume's data from the underlying file system representation. In this manner, the exporter creates a copy of the data set that the enterprise user can then leverage against the desired cloud-native tool or other cloud services that are not under the management or control of the global file system service provider.Type: GrantFiled: January 16, 2024Date of Patent: December 24, 2024Assignee: Nasuni CorporationInventors: Russell Andrew Neufeld, Max Picard Perry, John Adam Carter

Publication number: 20240069239Abstract: Methods and systems are provided that perform sonic measurements in a high-angle wellbore or horizontal wellbore or vertical wellbore penetrating highly dipped formation layers where the formation layers can have a high degree of dip relative to the wellbore. Sonic data can be generated from the sonic measurements and processed using multiple arrival event processing to determine formation porosity, elastic rock properties and geometric information for a tool layer and nearby shoulder bed. Such information can be integrated into a 2D or 3D layered model of the formation. The elastic rock properties of the tool layer and shoulder bed derived from the multiple arrival event processing can provide more representative elastic property values, which can account for heterogeneity along the wellbore.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 30, 2023Publication date: February 29, 2024Inventors: Nicholas N.
