  • Publication number: 20180043490
    Abstract: A dust collection system includes a drill that includes an arbor and a hole saw. A vacuum is provided that includes a hose. A bellows is provided and the bellows may be positioned against a surface. The drill is extended into the bellows to cut a hole in the surface. The bellows surrounds the hole saw to contain dust created when the hole saw cuts the hole. The hose of the vacuum is fluidly coupled to the bellows. Thus, the vacuum sucks the dust out of the bellows.

  • Publication number: 20170372813
    Abstract: A system and method for enhanced magnet wire insulation is described. A method of making an enhanced magnet wire insulation suited for an electric submersible motor application includes drawing copper magnet wire to size, cleaning the copper magnet wire, pulling the copper magnet wire through a polyimide wrap machine to produce wrapped copper magnet wire and placing the wrapped copper magnet wire around a spool, heating the wrapped magnet wire by unspooling the wrapped magnet wire through a tube comprising an induction coil, removing moisture from the heated, wrapped copper magnet wire by creating at least a partial vacuum inside the tube, redrawing the wrapped copper magnet wire through an extrusion mold after moisture is removed, applying molten PEEK to the wrapped copper magnet wire to produce enhanced magnet wire, and winding the enhanced magnet wire into an induction motor to be used to operate an electric submersible pump.

  • Patent number: 9800110
    Abstract: A system and method for enhanced magnet wire insulation is described. The system of the invention provides an enhanced insulation for magnet wire that is capable of withstanding high temperatures and provides a seal against water that is needed in electric submersible pump (ESP) applications. The enhanced insulation of the system of the invention provides the dielectric advantages of polyimide tape, such as Kapton tape, while also including the advantages of organic polymer thermoplastic insulation that prevents the delaminating at high temperatures that may occur in pumping applications using a variety of electrical submersible motors.

  • Patent number: 9759480
    Abstract: Described herein is a method of removing refrigerant from a natural gas liquefaction system in which vaporized mixed refrigerant is withdrawn from the closed-loop refrigeration circuit and introduced into a distillation column so as to be separated into an overhead vapor enriched in methane and a bottoms liquid enriched in heavier components. Overhead vapor is withdrawn from the distillation column to form a methane enriched stream that is removed from the liquefaction system, and bottoms liquid is reintroduced from the distillation column into the closed-loop refrigeration circuit. Also described are methods of altering the rate of production in a natural gas liquefaction system in which refrigerant is removed as described above, and a natural gas liquefaction systems in which such methods can be carried out.

  • Patent number: 9694003
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods of treating a mammal in need of a reduction in intraocular pressure by administering an intraocular formulation including a therapeutically effective amount of norketotifen for the reduction of intraocular pressure to the eye of the mammal in need thereof, wherein the intraocular formulation includes about 0.02 wt % to about 1.0 wt % norketotifen or a salt or an isomer thereof, calculated as the norketotifen free base. In certain aspects, the intraocular formulation is free from any added preservative and the intraocular formulation is self-preserving. Also included herein is a method of treating a human in need of a reduction in intraocular pressure by administering an intranasal formulation that includes a therapeutically effective amount of norketotifen for the reduction of intraocular pressure to the eye of the human in need thereof. Also, the beneficial effects of known drugs for high IOP are improved by co-administration with norketotifen.
