Publication number: 20230408004Abstract: Fittings that generally include a unitary body having an outer surface and an inner lumen forming a void within said unitary body. The lumen is configured to receive threads for mating with the threads of a female sub end of a pipe or tube. The outer surface includes at least one aperture for receiving a tool that can be inserted within said aperture so as to rotate the fitting about an axis that extends through the lumen of the unitary body. The at least one apertures provide a safe and convenient way to tighten and loosen the fitting during the process of coupling pipe or tubing.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 29, 2023Publication date: December 21, 2023Applicant: 3SC Global, LLCInventors: Don William Broussard, JR., Ronald Kent Swain, Jeffery Allen Bess, Johnnie Rae Burrows, Jerad Norman Richardson

Patent number: 5856811Abstract: A visual display and helmet assembly is configured to function in the presence of a harsh environment, e.g., high wind, vibration and shock and strong ambient light. The visual display preferably includes a transmissive liquid-crystal display to reduce the display's size and to enhance the intensity of a virtual image. In addition, the display is preferably reconfigurable so that different display indicia can be programmed as desired. To reduce probability of injury to a user, the visual display is carried on the exterior of the helmet with its center of mass positioned substantially on the midsagittal plane of the user. In addition, a mount permits the visual display to detach from the helmet when it is subjected to forces above a predetermined threshold. The mount is also permits yielding movement between the visual display and the helmet to enhance viewing of the image.Type: GrantFiled: January 31, 1996Date of Patent: January 5, 1999Assignees: Delco Electronics Corp., Hughes Electronics, Bell Sports, Inc.Inventors: I-Fu Shih, Ning Wu, David E.
