Abstract: A subsurface safety valve actuation system in well tubing comprising a safety valve, piston assembly, motor, pump, spring, reservoir, first valve, and second valve configured to provide pressure in a chamber of the piston assembly that drives the safety valve to an open position, retain pressure in the chamber that retains the safety valve in the open position, release pressure in the chamber via a first hydraulic release path and/or a second hydraulic release path between the chamber and the reservoir that extends through the first valve and second valve, respectively, and the first and second hydraulic release paths being independent from each other, whereby pressure in the chamber that retains the safety valve in the open position may be released via the first or second hydraulic release path when there is a fault in the other of the first or second release path.

Abstract: A linear actuator comprising a shaft and a nut that translates within a linear range of motion in response to relative rotation between the nut and shaft, a stop positioned at a travel limiting position and having an inner portion connected to the shaft, a radially compliant outer portion axially overlapping the inner portion and configured to rotate relative to the inner portion, and a cam roller portion disposed radially between the inner and outer portions and configured to move relative to a neutral orientation in response to relative rotation between the inner and outer portions, and the outer portion configured to radially bias the cam roller portion towards the neutral orientation; wherein rotation of the outer portion caused by the nut rotating into the outer portion provides an outward radial load at the cam roller portion on the outer portion that is absorbed by the outer portion.

Abstract: A mechanism for loading suspended loops of linked ammunition onto rails of an ammunition magazine includes a guideway and a carriage. The guideway has cam surfaces and cam slots each extending vertically from a lower portion of the guideway and curving near an upper portion of the guideway toward the rails at a loading end of the magazine. The carriage includes a support block slidably received by the guideway and a tandem bucket mounted on the support block by a linkage. The tandem bucket includes inner and outer followers engaging the cam surfaces and cam slots. The tandem bucket is horizontal and may be loaded with two adjacent rounds of a belt of linked ammunition when the carriage is at a lowered position. The carriage may then be raised manually, wherein the tandem bucket is articulated by camming engagement of the followers to a vertical orientation to deposit one of the two rounds onto the magazine rails with the other round and trailing rounds suspended therefrom.

Abstract: An additive manufacturing system uses a trained artificial intelligence module as part of a closed-loop control structure for adjusting the initial set of build parameters in-process to improve part quality. The closed-loop control structure includes a slow control loop taking into account in-process build layer images, and may include fast control loop taking into account melt pool monitoring data. The artificial intelligence module is trained using outputs from a plurality of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) tasked with evaluating build layer images captured in-process and images of finished parts captured post-process. The post process images may include two-dimensional images of sectioned finished parts and three-dimensional CAT scan images of finished parts.
