Abstract: An intubation assembly and shield configured to at least partially reduce the risk of contagion of airborne illnesses. The intubation assembly comprises an intubation apparatus assembly, which may comprise an intubation apparatus such as a laryngoscope, endoscope, bronchoscope, or other fiberoptic device. The intubation apparatus assembly may be operatively disposed on the shield assembly. The intubation apparatus may be placed on a correspondingly dimensioned sleeve. The shield assembly comprises a body with a plurality of side segments and a first transparent component with a shield opening disposed thereon. The shield opening may be used for insertion of the intubation apparatus assembly. The shield assembly may also comprise a second transparent component with at least one longitudinally disposed slot for insertion of an endotracheal tube or other intubation apparatus(es). The shield assembly may be provided with ports to attach a vacuum device to provide negative pressure.

Abstract: A system includes a measuring device configured to receive a returned mud mixture from a riser and to direct the returned mud mixture to a mud processing system. The measuring device includes a duct, a first load cell coupled to the duct, and a mud level sensor. The duct has a first end disposed at a first level and a second end disposed at a second level lower than the first level. The first load cell is configured to determine a mass of a quantity of the returned mud mixture within the duct during a drilling operation. The mud level sensor is configured to determine a height of the returned mud mixture in the duct. The mass of the quantity of the returned mud mixture may be used to determine a density of the quantity of the returned mud mixture and a cleaning efficiency ratio of the drilling operation.

Abstract: A device includes at least one float. The at least one float is configured to provide a buoyancy force away from a seabed when placed in water. The device also includes an enclosure configured to house the at least one float. The enclosure comprises at least one connection configured to couple the enclosure to a self-elevating unit used in offshore oil operations or offshore gas operations.

Abstract: A steering cylinder mounting assembly includes a cylinder housing having a longitudinal opening formed therethrough, a groove formed along a longitudinal face of the cylinder housing, a protruding rib formed at opposite longitudinal ends of the cylinder housing and formed spaced apart from and parallel to the groove, and a plurality of apertures formed in a surface of the cylinder housing opposing the groove and transverse to a longitudinal axis of the cylinder housing. A mounting bracket is selectively connected with the cylinder housing and positioned between the protruding ribs. The mounting bracket includes a tongue portion engageable with the groove of the cylinder housing, and a plurality of apertures formed therein transverse to a longitudinal axis of the cylinder housing. Connecting members are aligned with the apertures of the cylinder housing and the mounting bracket for securing the cylinder housing to the mounting bracket.

Abstract: A refrigeration system includes an evaporator coil with a drain pan having alternative drain openings which receive movable primary and secondary drain plugs. A drain pan for use with horizontal A-coils is provided with alternative drain pan openings permitting a variety of configurations whereby the evaporator coil may be oriented in the space conditioning system in the most effective manner depending upon on-site conditions. A combination horizontal coil support and drainage duct with coil baffle provides a channel for effective communication of drainage fluid from the coil to the drain pan.
