  • Patent number: 11623577
    Abstract: A garment rack for a vehicle. The rack includes a horizontal rod for clothes hangers. The front end of the horizontal rod is pivotally supported on the upper end of a vertical rod positioned behind the front seat of the vehicle. The upper end of the vertical rod is secured behind the headrest of the front seat, and the rear end of the horizontal rod is removably attached to the top of the headrest of the rear seat. The horizontal rod is adjustable telescopically so that, as the front or rear seat is moved forward or backward, the rod extends and retracts automatically. The height of the vertical rod also is adjustable.

  • Patent number: 7252700
    Abstract: A method and mobile system for cleaning dirty gas from a newly stimulated gas well. The entire system is supported on a trailer or other mobile support so that it can be driven from well site to well site for short-term, post-stimulation use only. The system comprises a gas separator, such as a membrane separator. The system also includes a pretreatment assembly for preparing the gas for the gas separator. The pretreatment assembly may include separators, a heater, a guard vessel and a polishing filter. A chiller or heat exchanger cools the treated gas to a marketable temperature. A generator and a hydraulics plant provide power to the system. Each mobile system will be designed to treat gases with widely different operating conditions varying from well to well.

  • Patent number: 5335728
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for disposing of water at gas wells. Water from the water holding tank is collected periodically in a heating vessel. Hot fluid from an auxiliary engine system, such as the oil pump or the water pump for the compressor engine, is pumped through a heat conductive coil around the heating vessel to heat the well water in the heating vessel. The heated well water then is injected into the hot exhaust line from the compressor either between the compressor and the muffler or alternatively is injected directly into the muffler. The heating vessel is pressurized with gas from the well to assist in the evacuation of the heated water from the heating vessel and the injection of the well water into the hot exhaust. A system of valves controls the delivery of water to the heating vessel, ensures that the heating vessel will not be over pressurized and deactivates the apparatus when the gas compressor is not running.

  • Patent number: 5143371
    Abstract: A golfer's aid having a body in the shape of a clip which can be attached to the belt, pocket or waistband of the user or to a golf bag or other article. A strip of hook and look fabric is attached to the straight outer surface of the body for attaching the user's glove. A blade is rotatably attached to the end of the body. One end of the blade is a divot repair tool and one end is a curved surface for checking the roundness of golf balls. One square tooth and one pointed tooth are provided on the arms of the divot repair tool for cleaning the grooves in the heads of golf clubs. Ball markers may be included with the accessory. The ball markers preferably are equipped with a spot of hook and loop fabric on one the side so that the ball marker can be carried on the hook and loop strip on the body. Alternately, a hole surrounded by a small magnet may be provided in the body above the strip for receiving the spike of a ball marker which is either made of metal or provided with a metal collar.

  • Patent number: 4995460
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for disposing of water at gas wells. Water from the gas-water separator is circulated through an evaporator kept partially filled with water. Hot exhaust from the gas compressor is circulated through the evaporator in heat exchange relation with the water under conditions which permit the water to vaporize. The steam is vented to the environment. Venting of the steam from the evaporator is facilitated by feeding a stream of hot exhaust from the muffler into the evaporator.
