Patent number: 11362895Abstract: An external processing system includes a port to exchange signals with a router. The external processing system also includes a processor to receive, from the router via the port, information representing an operating system and a hypervisor in response to the external processing system being connected to the router via the port. The processor instantiates the operating system and the hypervisor based on the received information. The router includes a port allocated to an external processing system and configured to exchange signals with the external processing system. The router also includes a controller to provide, to the external processing system via the port, information representing the operating system and the hypervisor in response to the external processing system being connected to the external processing system via the port.Type: GrantFiled: February 10, 2020Date of Patent: June 14, 2022Assignee: Nokia Solutions and Networks OyInventors: Steve Morin, John Fischer, Peter Tregunno

Publication number: 20220170332Abstract: Certain embodiments of the present application relate to a variable frequency drive (VFD) cabin for a pump configuration including a mobile trailer on which the VFD cabin is to be mounted. The VFD cabin generally includes a medium-voltage VFD and a ventilation system. In certain embodiments, the ventilation system is configured to generate an overpressure condition within the cabin to discourage the entry of dust and debris into the cabin. In certain embodiments, one or more components of the medium-voltage VFD are coupled to the floor of the cabin via a vibration damping system. In certain embodiments, the VFD cabin may be directly coupled to a chassis of the mobile trailer without an intervening suspension being provided between the VFD cabin and the chassis.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 14, 2022Publication date: June 2, 2022Inventors: John Fischer, David Kubricht, Richard Cheatham, Jeffrey Pollack, Chad Lawman, David Todd, Tyler Nolen, John J.

Patent number: 11320235Abstract: A firearm carrier that is design and configured to hold a firearm. In one embodiment, the firearm is a pump-action (or slide-action) firearm, such as a scattergun. The firearm can have a rear portion with a pistol grip, and a forward portion with a barrel and a pump-action (or slide-action) receiver. The firearm carrier can be secured to a user's waist and leg, and then the firearm can be removably secured to the firearm carrier. Advantageously, the firearm carrier is configured to receive a portion of the barrel of the firearm and can thus be secured to the firearm carrier. The firearm can also be rapidly removed from the firearm carrier should the user desire to remove the firearm from the firearm carrier.Type: GrantFiled: September 26, 2018Date of Patent: May 3, 2022Inventor: David John Fischer

Patent number: 11319762Abstract: An electric driven hydraulic fracking system is disclosed. A pump configuration that includes the single VFD, the single shaft electric motor, and the single hydraulic pump that is mounted on the single pump trailer. A pump configuration includes a single VFD configuration, the single shaft electric motor, and the single shaft hydraulic pump mounted on the single pump trailer. The single VFD configuration converts the electric power at the power generation voltage level distributed from the power distribution trailer to a VFD voltage level and drives the single shaft electric motor to control the operation of the single shaft electric motor and the single hydraulic pump. The VFD voltage level is a voltage level that is required to drive the single shaft electric motor. The VFD configuration also controls operation of the auxiliary systems based on the electric power at the auxiliary voltage level.Type: GrantFiled: September 21, 2021Date of Patent: May 3, 2022Assignee: National Service Alliance—Houston LLCInventors: John Fischer, John J.

Publication number: 20220127945Abstract: An electric driven hydraulic fracking system is disclosed. A pump configuration that includes the single VFD, the single shaft electric motor, and the single hydraulic pump that is mounted on the single pump trailer. The single VFD converts the electric power of at least 13.8 kV to a VFD rated voltage level of at least 4160V and drives the single shaft electric motor at the VFD voltage level of up to 4160V to control the operation of the single shaft electric motor and the single hydraulic pump. The single shaft electric motor drives the single hydraulic pump with the rotation at the rated RPM level of at least 750 RPM. The single hydraulic pump continuously pumps the fracking media into the well at the HP level of at least 5000 HP. The single hydraulic pump operates on a continuous duty cycle to continuously pump the fracking media at the HP level of at least 5000 HP.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 11, 2022Publication date: April 28, 2022Inventors: John Fischer, John J.

Patent number: 11286736Abstract: An electric driven hydraulic fracking system is disclosed. A pump configuration includes the single VFD, the single shaft electric motor, and the single hydraulic pump mounted on the single pump trailer. A controller associated with the single VFD and is mounted on the single pump trailer. The controller monitors operation parameters associated with an operation of the electric driven hydraulic fracking system as each component of the electric driven hydraulic fracking system operates to determine whether the operation parameters deviate beyond a corresponding operation parameter threshold. Each of the operation parameters provides an indicator as to an operation status of a corresponding component of the electric driven hydraulic fracking system. The controller initiates corrected actions when each operation parameter deviates beyond the corresponding operation threshold.Type: GrantFiled: October 26, 2021Date of Patent: March 29, 2022Assignee: National Service Alliance—Houston LLCInventors: John Fischer, John J.
