Patents by Inventor Ryan Tyler Hilger

Ryan Tyler Hilger has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 11438970
    Abstract: Heating devices, systems, and methods of making and using a heating device. Such a heating device includes a tubular body having a passage therethrough, at least an inner layer surrounding the passage, and an outer layer surrounding the inner layer. The inner layer is electrically resistive and the outer layer is electrically insulating, and the passage is sized and configured to receive therethrough a tubing. The heating device further includes electrical contacts located at oppositely-disposed ends of the tubular body. The contacts are configured to functionally couple with a power source to provide an electrical current to the inner layer, such that applying an electrical current to the inner layer increases the temperature of the inner layer.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 22, 2018
    Date of Patent: September 6, 2022
    Assignee: Purdue Research Foundation
