Patent number: 11969206Abstract: Intra-cardiac voltage data display systems display a plurality of data sets derived at least from intra-cardiac voltage data sampled by an electrode. In some embodiments, at least some of the data sets are derived from a portion of the intra-cardiac voltage data that excludes an excludable portion of the intra-cardiac voltage data having a relationship with an occurrence of a particular cardiac event to facilitate identification of the existence of a transmural lesion in tissue adjacent the electrode. In some embodiments, the particular cardiac event is the occurrence of an R wave in the cardiac cycle, and the excludable portion is a V wave in the cardiac cycle.Type: GrantFiled: June 28, 2021Date of Patent: April 30, 2024Assignee: KARDIUM INC.Inventors: Daniel Robert Weinkam, Daniel Martin Reinders, Darrell Anthony Harrington, Douglas Wayne Goertzen, Michael Hermann Weber

Patent number: 11884425Abstract: A spacecraft capable of generating an artificial gravity environment comprises frame with a circular track with at least two modules traveling on the track. The two modules are configured to engage the first track opposite the first module to minimize mass imbalance, and a balancing system for the first and second modules configured to mass balance the first and second modules relative to each other. The frame itself does not rotate, and may have other mission supporting structures attached, including storage and supply modules, and observational modules, and spacecraft hangars and spacecraft docking modules. A method of operating a spacecraft to generate artificial gravity in a habitation module comprises operating a frame in space, propelling first and second habitation modules about the frame to generate artificial gravity environments in the modules, and mass balancing the first module relative to the second module to maintain balance of the spacecraft.Type: GrantFiled: March 4, 2022Date of Patent: January 30, 2024Inventor: Robert Weber Mah

Patent number: 11739364Abstract: Systems and methods are provided herein for rapid detection, separation, purification, and quantification of viral particles in a sample. According to some embodiments, a microfluidic device is provided for receiving the sample which may contain viral particles. An electrode of the microfluidic device may be used to generate dielectrophoretic (DEP) and/or electroosmotic (EO) forces acting on the sample. The applied DEP and/or EO forces may immobilize components of the sample on the surface of the electrode, may aggregate viral particles of the sample in one region of the microfluidic device, and may separate other components of the sample from the viral particles. The techniques may be performed rapidly, for example, in eight hours or less, and may not affect infectivity of the viral particles. In some embodiments, the sample may be labeled to enhance a response of one or more of the sample components to the DEP and/or EO forces.Type: GrantFiled: April 23, 2021Date of Patent: August 29, 2023Assignee: FLUID-SCREEN, INC.Inventors: Slawomir Antoszczyk, Monika Weber, Robert Weber

Publication number: 20230160303Abstract: A servo valve in a servo pulser used to restrict flow to a larger main valve includes external stops on a housing to define rotational starting/stopping points and sweep zones for a servo rotor having digits for contacting the stops. The digits extend longitudinally away from the servo valve seat and extend into the sweep zones. Interaction between the stops and the digits in the sweep zones limit rotation of the rotor to a swept arc between the stops. The servo pulser rotor oscillates between stopping points in alternating clockwise/counterclockwise sweeps. Each sweep in a given direction creates one full pulse: closed, open, and closed. The servo pulser carries out a feedback/decision loop between hydraulic pulses (and sweeps) that receives information on one or more previous pulses and calculates how fast or slow it should drive the servo rotor for the current pulse.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 18, 2021Publication date: May 25, 2023Applicant: RIME Downhole Technologies, LLCInventors: Robert A Weber, Manoj Gopalan

Patent number: 11603586Abstract: A method for forming a structure using an interim temper process is provided. A metal material is partially-aged to a stable temper that does not require cold storage. The partially-aging step is completed at a supplier facility prior to the metal material being received by the manufacturer. Once received by the manufacturer, the partially-aged metal material is heated to a first temperature to perform retrogression. A structure is formed from the partially-aged metal material after performing the retrogression. The structure is shaped and inspected. The structure is then heated to a second temperature in an age oven to reach its final aged state. The final aged state may be close to, meet, or exceed a T6 temper.Type: GrantFiled: September 27, 2019Date of Patent: March 14, 2023Assignee: The Boeing CompanyInventors: Gary Robert Weber, Clinton J.
