Patent number: 12290013Abstract: A perforator quick disconnect system for an aerator device includes a perforator and a retaining device. The perforator has a head with an exterior configured to be received within a mounting block of the aerator device and a female component that extends into the exterior of the head. The retaining device has a connector configured to connect to the mounting block and a male component disposed within the connector and moveable relative thereto from a first position to a second position. The female and male components together form a quick disconnect mechanism such that when the perforator and retaining device are received by the mounting block, the male component engages the female component when the male component is in the first position to connect the retaining device to the mounting block and disengages the female component when in the second position to disconnect the perforator from the mounting block.Type: GrantFiled: May 19, 2022Date of Patent: May 6, 2025Assignee: AmTech InternationalInventor: Von Davis

Patent number: 12239650Abstract: The present invention relates to compounds with high chemical stability and methods for inhibiting the pathological activity of NETs in a subject. In particular, the invention relates to compounds with high chemical stability, uses thereof and methods for inhibiting or ameliorating NET mediated ailments (such as, for example, sepsis, systemic immune response syndrome (SIRS) and ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI)). More particularly, the invention relates to methods and uses of a polyanionic sulfated cellobioside modified with a small uncharged glycosidically linked substituent at its reducing terminus, wherein the presence of the substituent results in a molecule with high chemical stability without affecting the ability of the molecule to be effective in the therapy of NET mediated ailments. For example, the present invention relates to methods and uses of ?-O-methyl cellobioside sulfate (mCBS) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof (e.g., mCBS.Type: GrantFiled: February 25, 2019Date of Patent: March 4, 2025Assignees: The Australian National University, Griffith UniversityInventors: Christopher Parish, Connor O'Meara, Lucy Coupland, Benjamin Ju Chye Quah, Farzaneh Kordbacheh, Anna Orlov, Anna Browne, Ross Stephens, Gregory David Tredwell, Lee Andrew Philip, Karen Knox, Laurence Mark von Itzstein, Chih-Wei Chang, Anne Bruestle, David Anak Simon Davis

Publication number: 20230184517Abstract: An accessory mount system for connection to a rear sight block (RSB) of a Kalashnikov pattern firearm includes a locking insert that has a projection which extends in a first direction. The projection is adapted to be received within a first recess of the RSB for connection thereto. An adapter body is connected to the locking insert and has a projection that extends in a second direction opposite the first direction. The projection of the adapter body is adapted to be received within a second recess of the RSB for connection thereto. A mount body is connected to the adapter body and has an accessory interface which is adapted to connect to an accessory. An adapter body is secured with a push-pivot pin securely wedging the projection of the adapter against an internal wall of the RSB.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 12, 2022Publication date: June 15, 2023Applicant: Exponential Innovation IP Holdings LLCInventors: Von Davis, Daniel R.

Publication number: 20220316832Abstract: A method of removing a trigger assembly from a firearm includes placing a projection of a pin removal tool against a first end of a trigger pin of a firearm. The projection of the pin removal tool extends from a first end of a handle of the pin removal tool. The projection is then pushed against the pin so as to cause the pin to partially unseat from its position within the firearm. The pin removal tool is then turned around and the head is engaged to the pin between the first end and a second end thereof via a notch of the head. The pin removal tool is pulled so that the trigger pin is removed from the firearm so as to release a trigger assembly which is at least partially held within the firearm by the trigger pin.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 2, 2021Publication date: October 6, 2022Applicant: Exponential Innovation IP Holdings LLCInventor: Von Davis

Patent number: 10557673Abstract: A delayed rotary blowback mechanism integrated into a firearm bolt and carrier subassembly. A plurality of lugs are configured at a rear of the bolt and seat within a mating profile of a barrel extension of the firearm in a fully chambered position. Chamfered locations are configured between the lugs and a receiving profile in the barrel extension for influencing linear to rotational motion of the bolt. A cam pin extends upwardly from the bolt and seats through a circumferentially directed slot configured within the bolt carrier. Upon initiating of the discharge cycle of a fired round traveling out the end of the barrel, the chamfered configuration results in the bolt and cam pin rotating within the carrier and the lugs subsequently separating from the barrel extension. The bolt and carrier retain sufficient inertia to cycle through the discharge cycle concurrent with reloading a subsequent cartridge.Type: GrantFiled: December 27, 2018Date of Patent: February 11, 2020Assignee: 22 Evolution LLCInventors: John L. Overstreet, Tyson Bradshaw, Von Davis, Jordan Wilson

Patent number: 10436530Abstract: A delayed rotary blowback mechanism integrated into a firearm bolt and carrier subassembly. A plurality of radial locking lugs are configured at a rear end of the bolt and seat within a mating profile of a barrel extension of the firearm in a fully chambered position. A plurality of chamfered locations are configured between the lugs and a receiving profile in the barrel extension for influencing linear to rotational motion of the bolt. A cam pin extends upwardly from the bolt and seats through a circumferentially directed slot configured within the bolt carrier. Upon initiating of the discharge cycle, signaled by the round traveling through and out the end of the barrel, the chamfered configuration results in the bolt and cam pin rotating within the carrier and the lugs subsequently separating from the barrel extension, with the bolt and associated carrier retaining sufficient inertia to cycle through the discharge cycle to the set position concurrent with reloading a subsequent cartridge.Type: GrantFiled: October 24, 2017Date of Patent: October 8, 2019Assignee: 22 Evolution LLCInventors: John L.
