Publication number: 20230294025Abstract: A transmission filter includes two outlets. One outlet, adapted to feed an engine-driven pump, protrudes diagonally from the front of the filter. The first outlet is sealed to the inlet of the engine-driven pump by a radial seal. The second outlet is arranged in a rear extension and is sealed to the inlet of an electric pump by a compression seal. The differing types of seals and relative orientations of the outlets make the assembly less sensitive to dimension variation due to production and assembly tolerances. The relative locations of the outlets also mitigate any flow interactions between the pumps when both operate simultaneously.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 22, 2023Publication date: September 21, 2023Inventors: Lev Pekarsky, William Rey Patterson

Publication number: 20200388357Abstract: A computer implemented method includes receiving a request at a provider for protected data, the request including a unique identifier corresponding to an authorization to access the protected data or a participant identifier, searching a revocation ledger, denying the request for protected data in response to the unique identifier being stored in the revocation ledger wherein the revocation ledger comprises cryptographically linked blocks of revocations of previous documents granting access to the protected data, denying the request for protected data in response to the participant identifier being stored in the revocation ledger, and granting the request for the protected data in response to neither the unique identifier nor that participant identifier being stored in the revocation ledger.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 28, 2020Publication date: December 10, 2020Inventors: William Rey Johnson, Senthil Nachimithu

Patent number: 9440341Abstract: An apparatus for guiding an anti-rotation key installation tool includes at least one magnet mounting member. A tool positioning member is coupled to the magnet mounting member and has a first end and a second end. An installation tool positioning channel extends from the first end to the second end of the tool positioning member and has an opening at the first end of the tool positioning member for accepting a portion of the anti-rotation key installation tool. At least one mechanically switchable frame securing magnet assembly is mounted to the at least one magnet mounting member for releasably securing the apparatus to an outer surface of a tubular connection.Type: GrantFiled: September 18, 2013Date of Patent: September 13, 2016Assignee: VETCO GRAY INC.Inventors: Gregory Bell, William Rey Patterson, Jr.

Patent number: 9410647Abstract: An anti-rotation system for use in retaining a threaded connection between a pin and a box. The anti-rotation system includes a key that sets in a recess formed in one of the box or pin. The key is selectively in contact with one of the other of the box or pin, and is activated when the threaded connection begins to decouple. The key is profiled and operates in a cam like fashion to wedge itself between the box and pin when these members begin to decouple and prevents further relative rotation.Type: GrantFiled: August 1, 2013Date of Patent: August 9, 2016Assignee: Vetco Gray Inc.Inventors: Thomas Lowell Steen, Joseph William Pallini, Daniel Caleb Benson, David Lawrence Ford, Kevin Edward O'Dell, Stephen David Peters, William Rey Patterson, Jr.

Patent number: 5929842Abstract: A method of displaying digital samples with enhanced image details on a raster display using a limited set of brightness values is provided. Digital samples are interpolated and stored as pixel information in high resolution intensity memory. An adaptive mapping process maps the high resolution intensity information to low intensity brightness information in a manner so as to maximize image details. An equal number of brightness levels from light to dark are allocated in each column along the sweep. An adaptive recombination process combines past and present brightness information in a manner that best preserves image details when the temporal behavior of the display image is changing. A raster display device is employed to display the image which is stored in the display memory as pixels arranged by row and column.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 1996Date of Patent: July 27, 1999Assignee: Fluke CorporationInventors: Maarten Vertregt, William Rey
