Patent number: 10907445Abstract: A wellbore system comprising an autofill and circulation assembly comprising a housing defining a flowbore and comprising a first port and a second port, and a first sleeve slidable within the housing from a first position to a second position and from the second position to a third position, when the first sleeve is in the first position, the assembly allows fluid communication from an exterior of the housing to the flowbore via the first port and does not allow fluid communication from the flowbore to the exterior of the housing via the first port, when the first sleeve is in the second position, the assembly allows bidirectional fluid communication between the exterior of the housing and the flowbore via the second port, and, when the first sleeve is in the third position, the assembly disallows fluid communication between the exterior of the housing and the flowbore.Type: GrantFiled: February 25, 2013Date of Patent: February 2, 2021Assignee: Halliburton Energy Services, Inc.Inventors: Jeffrey Wythe Huggins, Adam Evan Beck, Joseph Steven Grieco

Patent number: 10900324Abstract: A sliding sleeve apparatus that has a flow inhibitor that slows the fluid flow between the interior passageway of the sliding sleeve and the well annulus to allow pressure equalization between the interior passageway of the sliding sleeve and the well annulus to occur prior to placing the sliding sleeve in a fully open position. The inhibited or restricted fluid flow reduces wear on the seals and other components of the sliding sleeve, which extends the operative life of the tool.Type: GrantFiled: December 30, 2016Date of Patent: January 26, 2021Assignee: Halliburton Energy Services, Inc.Inventors: Joseph Steven Grieco, Kevin Robin Passmore, Adam Evan Beck

Patent number: 10736803Abstract: A patient support apparatus comprises a base and a support frame. The patient support apparatus also comprises a lift assembly that operates to lift and lower the support frame relative to the base. The lift assembly comprises lift members that extend and collapse to lift and lower the support frame. Guides operate to guide movement of the lift members during operation. In some cases guided bodies coupled to the lift members move passively in the guides. In other embodiments, driven members coupled to the lift members move actively in the guides to cause lifting and lowering of the support frame.Type: GrantFiled: February 22, 2017Date of Patent: August 11, 2020Assignee: Stryker CorporationInventors: Jason John Connell, Joseph Steven David, Elku, Jeffrey C.

Publication number: 20200198858Abstract: The present disclosure provides a splash guard to minimize potential contact between the chemical product and a vent membrane during transport and/or transfer of containers, thereby resulting in preservation of the integrity of a vent membrane during transport and/or transfer of a chemical product. The splash guard is affixed to the fitment and so can be removed from the interior of the container prior to transfer of the chemical product out of the container. The splash guard may be used with fitments of varied shapes, sizes and/or structures, and with containers of varied shapes, sizes and/or structures. The splash guard is easy and inexpensive to manufacture and easy to install, e.g., by snapping onto a ring (lower perimeter) of a fitment. For example, the splash guard covers the entire circumference of the neck of a container, and is formed of a moldable material that provides rigidity.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 20, 2019Publication date: June 25, 2020Inventors: Matthew Darold Lausted, Joseph Steven Bons, Andrew Richard Sarnstrom, Lisa Anne Kreye, Karl Alan Heinbuch

Publication number: 20200104019Abstract: A system for hierarchical navigation of menus on a screen and particularly from one menu to another menu at the same level of a menu hierarchy. The system may provide side-to-side movement between menu elements to more easily navigate the menu pyramid. It may facilitate access to the details of a list of devices by selecting next and previous devices in the list, without navigating back to the list. The system may provide an operator or user with a simple, convenient method of browsing the details of devices in a list without the need to move back and forth throughout the list. The display may automatically adapt to the disparate properties of each type of device in the list. Also, the displayed details may be unique for a characterization of each device but be rendered in a common format.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 4, 2019Publication date: April 2, 2020Applicant: Honeywell International Inc.Inventors: Joseph Steven Majewski, Joe Stough, Don L.
