| 20110067647 | Collapsible umbrella based animal restraint - This system comprises a platform used as a restraint for animals and pets which design is based on an umbrella like motion to collapse and expand for easy use, transport and storage. The platform will connect to any readily available generic harness having a ventral strap, collar strap, and girth strap which by the design of these components provides a secure point of connection between the animal's or pet's front legs and the center of the platform. The platform is circular in form with a centered connection point that uses the animal's own weight and position to prevent free movement. The animal or pet can sit or stand but is limited in directional movement by the connection between the platform and the harness. The platform includes a plurality of umbrella ribs that are installed on a portion of the main hub and are capable of being folded, a plurality of support ribs respectively supporting the platform ribs, a inner locking hub to which an end of each of the support ribs is hingedly coupled and which uncouples from the main hub to fold or unfold the platform. | 03-24-2011 |

| 20090272923 | Adaptable safety nipple for nursing infants - The invention is disclosed as a nipple having a detachable coupler. In a first exemplary form the coupler the coupler is made to receive the nipple and to make a seal at the portion of the nipple abutting the coupler. The seal is made to prevent loss of fluid at the juncture or interface where the nipple meets the coupler. In the first exemplary form, the coupler has threads, which permit the coupler to be screwed onto a bottle having threads around the opening of the bottle. Fluid passes from the bottle into the coupler, through the coupler into the nipple and from the interior of the nipple into the baby's mouth. In a second exemplary form of the coupler, the coupler has an elastic opening to permit the coupler to be stretched over the opening of a fluid container. In the exemplary embodiments the interior of the nipple has a valve, through which all fluid must pass before exiting the nipple and entering the baby's mouth. The valve is made to limit the flow of fluids from the fluid container. When the flow rate is exceeded, the valve closes to prevent the maximum flow rate to be exceeded. | 11-05-2009 |

| 20120085544 | MARINE SUBSEA FREE-STANDING RISER SYSTEMS AND METHODS - A free-standing riser system connects a subsea source to a surface structure. The system includes a concentric free-standing riser comprising inner and outer risers defining an annulus there between. A lower end of the riser is fluidly coupled to the subsea source through a lower riser assembly (LRA) and one or more subsea flexible conduits. An upper end of the riser is connected to a buoyancy assembly and the surface structure through an upper riser assembly (URA) and one or more upper flexible conduits, the riser also mechanically connected to a buoyancy assembly that applies upward tension to the riser. The riser may be insulated for flow assurance, either by a flow assurance fluid in the annulus, insulation of the outside of the outer riser, or both. The system may include a hydrate inhibition system and/or a subsea dispersant system. The surface structure may be dynamically positioned. | 04-12-2012 |
