Title: Water-powered hand-washing system and method
Inventor: STINE PATRICK
IPC: A47K3/18
Filed: 2010-12-02
Granted: 2015-05-14
Abstract: Abstract of the Disclosure: A hand-washing system for washing fingernail beds and cuticular regions of human fingers and thumbs (collectively "digits"). The hand-washing system includes a work enclosure for containing ones of the digits and a high-velocity, high-flow water spray during a washing operation. The work enclosure defines an interior space, part of which defines an energy-dissipation region that, during use, provides a water reservoir for dissipating energy in the high-velocity, high flow water spray. The work enclosure includes a high-energy spray nozzle and a digit portal sized to receive the four fingers of one hand simultaneously in closed-fingered, upwardly-curled configuration. A mixing valve may be provided to allow a user to adjust the temperature of the water during washing. A quick-disconnect fluid-coupling assembly may also be provided and be used to quickly select between work enclosures of differing size. . 164 108 C2 -160 128--' 148 144-' 208- 24,- 148--20 K- --1 104 132 140 -120 208-- 204,,, 0 -208 - -------- 200 r' 152B 228 224: ~ 220 - - - - -- - - - : -- - - - - - - - -------- 2216A

Title: Core drill bit with extended matrix height
Inventor: DRIVDAHL KRISTIAN SHAYNE
IPC: E21B10/26
Filed: 2011-04-15
Granted: 2013-03-28
Abstract: Core drill bits with extended matrix heights are described. The core drill bits have a series of slots or openings that are not located at the tip of the cutting portion and are therefore enclosed in the body of the matrix. The slots may be staggered and/or stepped throughout the 5 matrix. As the matrix of the drill bit erodes through normal use, the fluid/debris notches at the tip of the bit are eliminated. As the erosion progresses, the slots become exposed and then they function at the proximal face of the bit as fluid/debris ways. This configuration allows the matrix height to be extended and lengthened without substantially reducing the structural integrity of the drill bit. With an extended matrix height, the drill bit can last longer and 10 require less tripping in and out of the borehole to replace the drill bit.

Title: Fracturing method to reduce tortuosity
Inventor: O'CONNELL MARIA M
IPC: E21B43/26
Filed: 2011-05-23
Granted: 2014-08-28
Abstract: A series of jet nozzles have a telescoping structure designed to impact the borehole wall and initiate a fracture. The nozzles can be extended through fluid pumped through them or with some mechanical force from within the bottom hole assembly. The leading ends of the telescoping assembly can be sharp and hardened to facilitate the initiation of a formation fracture in an open hole. The telescoping structures can be disposed in a single or multiple rows with the circumferential spacing being such that each telescoping structure is designed to cover a target circumferential distance of 45 degrees or less so that jetted fluid from at least one jet will be within 22.5 degrees of a location of maximum formation stresses to reduce the tortuosity of the created fractures from jetting through the nozzles with possible enhancement of the fracturing from added annulus pressure.

Title: Collapsible intermodal transport platform
Inventor: HANN SIMON
IPC: B65D88/12
Filed: 2011-09-27
Granted: 2014-01-30
Abstract: A collapsible intermodal transport platform and methods for its operation are disclosed. The invention comprises structural ribbings that rotate about an axle disposed beneath the loading surface of the platform. The ribbings are positioned along the platform so as to provide lifting and stacking fitments at the standard overhead crane lifting points when in a lift configuration. The ribbings may be rotated inboard down to the loading surface, thereby presenting stacking blocks at the crane lifting points for stacking several platforms together. Alternatively, the ribbings may be rotated outboard to accommodate full size loading of cargo. The ribbings are rotated under electric or hydraulic power, according to the various embodiments disclosed. The stacking blocks provide flip-up fitments for use when the ribbings are in a lowered configuration for stacking transport platforms with other transport platforms or with standard intermodal containers. The stacking blocks may be lifted directly or may be locked in to adjoining fitment housings, such that the transport platform will cling to the adjoining platform or intermodal container above it that is being lifted. Other features and aspects disclosed lend to the invention's low weight and high carrying capacity, as well as its unique load securing features.
