Publication number: 20240115263Abstract: An apposition device having a first elongate element movably coupled with a second elongate element. The second elongate element is deployable distal to the structures to be apposed, in a position transverse to the first elongate element. The first elongate element may be pulled to pull the second elongate element to move the structures into apposition. A third element may be positioned proximal to the structures to hold the structures in apposition. The third element may be a ratcheting element fixable in place with respect to the first elongate element. The apposition device may be deployed with a fine gauge needle. The second elongate element may be deployed from a side port in the needle facilitating deployment, and/or movement of the second elongate element with respect to the first elongate element and into a deployment configuration. Such arrangement may allow control of the first elongate element independent of the needle.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 6, 2023Publication date: April 11, 2024Applicant: BOSTON SCIENTIFIC SCIMED, INC.Inventors: Jeff Gray, Katharine Eckerline, Kyle P. Moore, Natalie Byrom, Mark Phillip Olson, Raymond David Gessler, III, Nathan Stenger, Matthew Maciej

Publication number: 20230005696Abstract: A vacuum tube insert assembly includes a flared insert piece having an annular flange and a stem each constructed of glass. The stem extends axially from the flange. The flange surrounds a perimeter edge of a plug concavity defined by the stem. Feed-through pins pass axially through the stem and are sealed thereto. The pins terminate inside of the concavity to form a plug. A socket connects to the plug within the concavity and includes receptacles that removably couple to the pins, with an engagement feature preventing erroneous plug and socket connections. A method includes axially inserting the pins through the stem at a fixed relative position such that the pins are arranged within the plug concavity, sealing the stem such that the stem is vacuum-sealed to the pins, thereby forming the plug, and removably coupling mating receptacles of the socket to the pins.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 29, 2022Publication date: January 5, 2023Applicant: Varex Imaging CorporationInventors: Gregory Robert Spencer, Jesse Hubbard, J.

Patent number: 10871064Abstract: A system can include an upper completion string including an outer mandrel and an inner mandrel positioned coaxially within the outer mandrel. The upper completion string can include a first pressure sensor in communication with a first chamber via a first channel extending through an outer housing of the outer mandrel for detecting a first pressure within the first chamber and transmitting an associated sensor signal. The first chamber can have a boundary that is defined at least in part by (i) an outer surface of the inner mandrel, (ii) an inner surface of the outer mandrel, and (iii) at least two protrusions positioned between the outer surface of the inner mandrel and the inner surface of the outer mandrel. The system can include a computing device in communication with the first pressure sensor for determining a pressure difference between the first pressure and another pressure.Type: GrantFiled: September 2, 2015Date of Patent: December 22, 2020Assignee: Halliburton Energy Services, Inc.Inventor: Steven Kyle Gray

Patent number: 10581126Abstract: A battery assembly is disclosed that includes a battery housing, a battery array, and one or more cooling plates. The battery housing forms a battery compartment having a width and length greater than a height. The battery array includes a plurality of cylindrical battery cells oriented horizontally with an axis substantially perpendicular to the height of the battery compartment. The plurality of battery cells is organized into a plurality of rows within the battery compartment. The plurality of battery cells is stacked two or more battery cells deep within the plurality of rows. The one or more cooling plates are oriented perpendicular to the axis of the battery cells and positioned proximal to an end of battery cells within a row of the plurality of rows.Type: GrantFiled: February 26, 2018Date of Patent: March 3, 2020Assignee: Nikola CorporationInventors: Trevor R.
