Charles Peter Caruso, Jr., Bountiful, UT US

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100181746AIRBAG MODULE HOUSING - A passenger airbag module that includes an airbag and a tubular inflator. The tubular inflator produces a quantity of inflation gas sufficient to inflate the airbag. The module also includes a housing that receives the inflator; and a retainer positioned within the airbag. The retainer clamps the airbag and the inflator to the housing, thereby creating a retainer/housing assembly having an annular gap proximate the inflator, the gap allowing the gas to exit the inflator and enter the airbag. In some situations, the gap will gap circumscribe the inflator.07-22-2010

20100019487Coupling with Low Friction Material - A female coupling includes a body defining a fluid pathway therethrough, and a slot extending transversely with respect to the fluid pathway, and a latch positioned in the slot to move between locked and unlocked positions. One or both of the body and the latch are molded of a material including a reduced friction additive.01-28-2010

20110203846METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR SEISMIC DATA ACQUISITION DURING DRILLING OPERATIONS - An apparatus and method are provided for obtaining formation data while drilling. The apparatus may include a drill string and a plurality of sensors. At least two of the plurality of sensors are spaced apart along the drill string a approximately the same distance as a length of a segment of the drill string. The segment of the drill string is either added to or removed from the rest of the drill string as the drill string moves in the borehole during a drilling operation. The method may include providing numerous sensors along a drill string and repeating a cycle of various functions. The cycle may include performing an operation moving the drill string relative to the borehole and stopping movement of the drill string. Additional functions may include changing an overall length of the drill string and performing the formation property while the drill string is relatively stationary.08-25-2011

20100212709TAILGATOR/SUNSHADE PROTECTIVE COVER - A portable sunshade used in conjunction with and supported by a vehicle. The sunshade has a lightweight protective fabric cover engaged by a up to five flexible poles. The protective cover rear is magnetically attached to the vehicle. The protective cover front terminates in two fabric legs, which are engaged by an elongated, flexible pole inserted through the legs and the front of the protective cover. The leg bottoms are engaged by a footing or a stake driven into the ground. Removable sidings may also be attached to the protective cover for enclosing the area beneath the protective cover. The portable is easily assembled and disassembled.08-26-2010

20110052393CONTROLLABLE MAGNETIC SYSTEMS - This invention relates to methods and devices for propulsion through a fluid, in particular at low Reynolds number. We describe a method of propelling one of a magnetic device and a fluid relative to the other, the magnetic device comprising a pair of magnetic moments linked by an elastic coupling element, one of said moments having a greater resistance to a change in orientation due to an external applied magnetic field than the other, the method comprising applying an elliptical or ellipsoidal rotating magnetic field to the device to cause a change in mutual attraction or repulsion between said magnetic moments to thereby change a physical configuration of said device, propelling said device relative to said fluid.03-03-2011
