Publication number: 20250033016Abstract: An array of membranes comprising amphipathic molecules is formed using an apparatus comprising a support defining an array of compartments. Volumes comprising polar medium are provided within respective compartments and a layer comprising apolar medium is provided extending across the openings with the volumes. Polar medium is flowed across the support to displace apolar medium and form a layer in contact with the volumes, forming membranes comprising amphipathic molecules at the interfaces. In one construction of the apparatus, the support that comprises partitions which comprise inner portions and outer portions. The inner portions define inner recesses without gaps therebetween that are capable of constraining the volumes comprising polar medium contained in neighbouring inner recesses from contacting each other. The outer portions extend outwardly from the inner portions and have gaps allowing the flow of an apolar medium across the substrate.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 6, 2024Publication date: January 30, 2025Applicant: Oxford Nanopore Technologies PLCInventors: Jason Robert Hyde, Pedro Miguel Ortiz Bahamon, Clive Gavin Brown, Andrew John Heron, Paul Raymond Mackett

Patent number: 12097537Abstract: A solvent containment and solvent handling process interlocking system is described that can be used as a ventilation and spill management system for the storage and use of hazardous and volatile chemicals and solvents in an ordinary or non-hazardous location. The vented solvent containment system has a containment tray for secondary solvent containment and air regulatory to supply negative air pressure to draw in any evaporated solvent from the containment tray to a safe exhaust location. A safety sensor in the solvent containment system is interlocked with the solvent handling and solvent control system to slow or stop solvent flow in the event of a potentially hazardous solvent leak.Type: GrantFiled: April 22, 2022Date of Patent: September 24, 2024Assignee: Vitalis Extraction Technology Inc.Inventors: James Anthony Seabrook, Raymond Brown, Chelsea Walker

Patent number: 10830401Abstract: A ceiling mounted light fixture includes a lens assembly including a central lens and a pair of side lenses. The central lens extends along a longitudinal axis, and each side lens extends parallel to the central lens and is positioned on a lateral side of the central lens. The fixture further includes at least one central light emitter for emitting light directly through the central lens and a pair of side light emitters. At least one control component operatively connected to the central light emitter and the side light emitters is configured to operate in a first mode in which the central light emitter is deactivated and the side light emitters are activated, and a second mode in which the central light emitter and the side light emitters are activated.Type: GrantFiled: April 18, 2017Date of Patent: November 10, 2020Assignee: Hubbell IncorporatedInventors: Eric Miller, David Rector, Chris Bailey, John Hollander, Raymond Brown

Patent number: 10654435Abstract: A sensor module for use in a low-cost weight-measurement and sensing system is provided. The sensor module may include a substrate configured to be mounted between a floor pan of a vehicle and a seat of the vehicle. The sensor module may further include a force sensing element disposed upon the substrate. The force sensing element may be configured to sense a force applied thereupon, and generate a reading representative of the force applied thereupon in response thereto to provide a sensor reading. The sensor module may also include a wiring harness connected to the force sensing element. The wiring harness may be configured to transmit the sensor reading to a control module. The substrate may define an aperture configured to surround a fastening element used to fasten the seat to the floor pan of the vehicle.Type: GrantFiled: December 15, 2017Date of Patent: May 19, 2020Assignee: BGM Engineering, Inc.Inventors: Lawrence Dale Butts, Joseph Francis Mazur, Louis Raymond Brown
