  • Patent number: 10221663
    Abstract: Disclosed techniques include a method of removing wellbore liquid from a wellbore that extends within a subterranean formation, comprising positioning a pump downhole in the wellbore, electrically powering the pump, expanding and contracting a membrane by pumping a fluid with the pump, wherein expanding and contracting the membrane creates a pressure for removing the wellbore liquid from the well, and removing the wellbore liquid from the well using the pressure.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 7952848
    Abstract: Electrostatic discharge protection, also known as ESD protection, is provided in the form of a discrete array with a voltage variable material (VVM) or a VVM device. The array is fabricated with a common electrode for connection to ground, and one or more electrodes configured for connection to an electrical component. The electrical component is a connector attached to an electrical circuit containing devices subject to damage by ESD events. The array is placed into a pocket or space on the connector and is held in place mechanically by spring force or by soldering to leads or electrodes of the connector. The array may be soldered to a ground connection or held in place by pressure, such as from a spring or from an outer housing or shell. In some embodiments, the array is removable from the component without affecting component circuits other than removal of ESD protection.

  • Patent number: 7083553
    Abstract: The dumbbell is a weight lifting device. The dumbbell comprises a one piece barrel having integral metal alloy blocks on either side. Transverse and integral holes on the blocks on the end allow insertion of common or modified weight lifting bars. Integral holes on the blocks also have the property of being able to thread in weight slugs of varying poundage and designs in various combinations with the aforementioned weight lifting bars lifting bars. The barrel or handle has a threaded insert in the middle providing the insertion of a ring attachment that would provide an alternate means of mounting on a weight lifting bar. The dumbbell can be mounted on a weight lifting bar via the transverse holes on either head or thru the removable attachment on the handle.
