  • Patent number: 11044823
    Abstract: An electronics device includes a folded printed circuit board which is folded about at least one fold region which defines a first section and a second section. A housing has a plurality of side portions. The first section of the folded printed circuit board is secured along an outer surface of a first side portion of the plurality of side portions. The housing further includes an interior. At least one first slot is defined within the interior and disposed along or near a second side portion arranged opposite the first side portion. At least one first pin member is disposed partly within the at least one first slot and extends therefrom. A distal end portion of the at least one first pin member engages with the second section of the folded printed circuit board so as to hold the second section in position over the interior of the housing.

  • Patent number: 10753565
    Abstract: A parabolic reflector is utilized for a vehicle head lamp having a housing, lens, light emitting diodes and control circuits for the light emitting diodes. The parabolic reflector comprises a plurality of reflective panels in an upper array for the low beam and a lower array for the high beam. The upper array is formed by three rows of twelve panels in side-to-side configuration. The lower array is divide into two separate groups, with each group having a two outermost panels, two intermediate panels and two innermost panels. The reflective panels of the upper array and the lower array are so positioned with respect to the light emitting diodes as to form a desired luminous intensity distribution from the head lamp.

  • Patent number: 10465695
    Abstract: In accordance with some embodiments of the present disclosure, a thrust washer and a diffuser for use in a downhole electrical submersible pump are disclosed. The pump may include a shaft and a motor communicatively coupled to the shaft. The motor may be operable to rotate the shaft. The pump may further include an impeller coupled to the shaft. The impeller may contain a balance ring, a balance hole, and a hub. The pump may further include a diffuser disposed adjacent to the impeller. The pump may further include a thrust washer coupled to the impeller. The thrust washer may be located between the balance ring and the hub without blocking the balance hole to allow fluid flow through the impeller and the diffuser. The pump may further include a discharge operable to direct fluid flow out of the multi-stage electrical submersible pump.
