Publication number: 20210291538Abstract: An example of apparatus including an attachment assembly to mate a liquid supply with a reservoir is provided. The apparatus includes an outlet port disposed on the attachment assembly, wherein the outlet port is to dispense liquid from the liquid supply to a receiving port of the reservoir. The apparatus includes a main vent port disposed on the attachment assembly, wherein the main vent port is to receive air from the reservoir as the liquid enters the reservoir. The apparatus includes a plug disposed on the attachment assembly, wherein the plug is to seal a secondary vent when the attachment assembly is mated with the reservoir, and wherein the plug is to break a seal with the secondary vent prior to detachment of the attachment assembly to recover the liquid from the attachment assembly.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 30, 2018Publication date: September 23, 2021Applicant: Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P.Inventors: Kenneth Williams, Steve A.

Publication number: 20210254955Abstract: An explosive detonating system comprises connectable components to connect/disconnect a pathway that ignites an explosion. A firing actuator activates primers (percussion caps). An adapter connects the firing actuator to shock tube and channels the ignition force into the shock tube. A cap box houses blasting caps coupled to the end of the shock tube. A priming well is coupled to the cap box/blasting caps and the detonating cord. When the firing actuator is initiated, the percussion caps ignite, sending an explosive wave into the adapter, which channels the wave into the shock tube and ignites the shock tube. The explosive wave travels through the shock tube and activates the blasting caps, which activate the detonating cord in the priming well. The explosive is placed in a location to provide a desired explosive effect. For example, the system may be employed as a system to breach structures or other applications.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 30, 2018Publication date: August 19, 2021Inventors: Steve A O'Hara, Kenneth Williams, Kevin Lo
