An apparatus for targeting an injection site using anatomical landmarks includes a first landmark identifier, a second landmark identifier, and a targeting band. The targeting band is connected with the first landmark identifier at a first end and a second landmark identifier at a second end. At least a portion of the targeting band is linearly deformable. In another embodiment, an apparatus for targeting an injection site using anatomical landmarks on a patient includes a targeting band having a first end and a second end, at least a portion of the targeting being linearly deformable, a first landmark identifier pivotably connected to the targeting band at the first end, a second landmark identifier configured to be connected with the second end of the targeting band; and a fastener configured to secure the first and second landmark identifiers to the patient.

Injection site targeting device

A nightcap system and assembly for closing a wellhead assembly positioned about a wellbore. The nightcap assembly includes a boom and a hoist. The boom includes a boom cylinder connectable to the wellhead assembly and a boom piston extendable from the cylinder. The hoist includes a hoist cylinder connectable to the wellhead assembly and a hoist piston extendable therefrom. The hoist piston includes a nightcap support to carry a nightcap. The hoist is connectable to the boom piston and movable therewith whereby the nightcap may be inserted into an opening of the wellhead assembly.

Nightcap assembly for closing a wellhead and method of using same

A ball launcher and method for actuating wellsite equipment at a wellsite is disclosed. The wellsite has wellhead equipment positioned at an inlet of a wellbore. The ball launcher includes a housing, a ball release, and a housing extension. The housing has a passage for receiving balls. The ball is release positionable about the housing. The ball release includes a feeder to selectively and sequentially release the balls from the housing. The housing extension includes a hopper tube and a feed tube. The hopper tube has an inlet to receive the balls from the housing, the feed tube extending at an angle from the hopper tube. The feed tube has an exit a distance above the wellhead equipment to release the balls therethrough whereby the balls are dropped into and activates the wellsite equipment in the wellbore.

An apparatus includes a platform, controller, and first and second extension members, brush tool members, and brush tools. The platform has a length orthogonal to and greater than its width. The first and second extension members are movably coupled to the platform and their longitudinal axes are parallel to the length of the platform. The first and second brush tool members are coupled to and extend along the longitudinal axes of the first and second extension members respectively. The first and second brush tools are coupled to and extend along the longitudinal axes of the first and second brush tool members respectively. The controller moves the first extension member towards the front end of the platform, retracts the first extension member towards the back end of the platform, and at a second time after the first time, moves the second extension member towards the front end of the platform.

A system includes a platform, an extension member, a spray tool member, and a spray tool. The platform is coupled to and positioned above the carriage. The platform has a length greater than and orthogonal to its width. The extension member is coupled to the platform and its longitudinal axis is parallel to the platform's length. The spray tool member's back end is coupled to the extension member's front end. The spray tool is coupled to the spray tool member's front end and includes a first nozzle oriented in a first direction, a second nozzle oriented in the first direction and positioned in line with the first nozzle, a third nozzle oriented in a second direction and positioned between and offset from the first and second nozzles, and a fourth nozzle oriented in a third direction and positioned between and offset from the first and second nozzles.

Robotic arm with spray tool

An apparatus includes a carriage, platform, extension member, brush tool member, brush tool, and controller. The carriage is coupled to and moves along a track. The platform has a length orthogonal to and greater than its width and transverse to the lateral direction when in an operational state. The platform pivots such that its front and back ends move vertically in opposite directions. The extension member is movably coupled to the platform and its longitudinal axis is parallel to the platform's length. The back end of the brush tool member is coupled to the front end of the extension member. The brush tool is coupled to the front end of the brush tool member. The controller configured moves the extension member towards the front end of the platform such that a portion of the brush tool extends beyond the front end of the platform.

An apparatus includes a carriage, a foundation, a pivot coupler, a platform, a coupler, a linear actuator, an extension member, a spray tool member, and a controller. The carriage moves along the track. The foundation is coupled to the carriage. The pivot coupler is coupled to the foundation. The coupler is coupled to the platform. The coupler couples the platform to the pivot coupler. The extension member is coupled to the linear actuator. The spray tool member is coupled to the extension member. The controller is configured to cause the carriage to move along the track, the platform to pivot, and the extension member to move in the lengthwise direction to position a spray tool coupled to the spray tool member at a spray position from which the spray tool may discharge a solution to a teat of a dairy livestock.

An apparatus includes a carriage, a platform, an extension member, and a spray tool member. The carriage moves along the track in a lateral direction. The platform is coupled to and positioned above the carriage. The length of the platform is greater than and orthogonal to the width of the platform and transverse to the lateral direction when in an operational state. The platform pivots about a fulcrum positioned between the platform and the carriage such that the front end and the back end of the platform move vertically in opposite directions. The extension member is movably coupled to the platform and has a longitudinal axis parallel to the length of the platform. The extension member extends away from the carriage in a first mode and retracts towards the carriage in a second mode. The spray tool member is coupled to the front end of the extension member.

Robotic arm with improved motion

An apparatus includes a tube, first and second pairs of electrodes, a reference device, and a processor. The processor determines a speed of a fluid traveling between the first and second pairs of electrodes and determines a reference conductance of the fluid using the reference device. The processor also determines a measured conductance of the fluid using at least one of the first and second pairs of electrodes and determines, based on the reference conductance and the measured conductance, a cross-sectional area of the fluid at an electrode. The processor further adds a correction factor to the determined speed to produce a bulk speed of the fluid. The processor further determines a volumetric flow rate of the fluid based on the bulk speed and the determined area and determines a volume of the fluid based on the determined volumetric flow rate.

Milk meter

An apparatus includes a carriage, camera, spray tool, and controller. The carriage is movably coupled to a track. The camera and spray tool are coupled to the carriage. The controller moves the carriage along the track away from a starting position based on a first signal from the camera, and as the carriage moves away from the starting position, discharges, through the spray tool, a solution for a first time. The controller moves the carriage towards the starting position after the solution has been discharged for the first time, and based on a second signal from the camera as the carriage moves towards the starting position and before the carriage reaches the starting position, moves the carriage away from the starting position. As the carriage moves away from the starting position, the controller discharges, through the spray tool, the solution for a second time.
