A tube with an integrated cleanout port includes a medical-grade tube, a suction adaptor, and a check valve, The medical-grade tube that connect between the patient's endotracheal tube and the Y-pipe of the mechanical ventilator includes a tubular body, a first connector end, and a second connector end. The suction adaptor is laterally positioned to the tubular body and hermetically connected to the tubular body that may be corrugated or not corrugated. The check valve is hermetically connected within the suction adaptor, wherein the tubular body is in fluid communication with the suction adaptor through the check valve. Due to the configuration of the check valve, any fluid buildup such as condensation, sputum, blood, and mucous within the tubular body can easily be removed via the suction adaptor without having to shut off the mechanical ventilator or break the circuit which could potentially cause harm to the patient.

The present invention refers to a device with diametral magnetic arrays for installations in magnetic SUBs, aiming the remediation and mitigation of inorganic and organic scales in production columns. The proposed magnetic device meets several specific criteria based on the magnetohydrodynamic model (MHD). After applying the said device with the proposed magnetic field, an efficiency of the scale inhibition was experimentally observed through laboratory tests, obtained from the values of the masses encrusted in the walls of the experimental bench system in the laboratory, with respect to the application without magnetic field. The device described herein can be installed in any pipeline used to transport fluids, including underwater pipelines for oil wells. These fluids can be oils, lubricants, gases, steams, water, petroleum or liquids in general.

An electromagnetic protection device is proposed to prevent adhesion of paraffin and other impurities dissolved in a hydrocarbon liquid to the inner surface of a metal pipeline. The device includes a power supply (battery or industrial electric grid), microprocessor unit, radiating antenna, antenna amplifier including solenoid, MOSFET transistor, capacitors, current and voltage sensors. A virtual capacitor, participating in generating electromagnetic waves preventing the adhesion, is formed between surfaces of the pipeline and a conductive part of the radiating antenna. The microprocessor allows setting an optimal operating mode of the device. The device is preferably furnished with two mount units including extendable rotatable spacers and flexible bands, adjustably fixing the device and radiating antenna to the pipeline. Each spacer includes a bushing including three connected hollow cylinders, two of which have threadings on inner surfaces, and two rods with mating threadings, enclosed in the cylinders, providing for moving the rods therein.

A thermally conductive cover improves workability of attachment and detachment. The thermally conductive cover includes a first thermal conductor on which a coupling hole is formed and a second thermal conductor on which a coupling hole is formed. The thermally conductive cover further includes a coupling member having a first inserted part to be inserted into the coupling hole and a second inserted part to be inserted into the coupling hole. At least one of the inserted parts is elastically deformable in a direction perpendicular to an inserting direction of the coupling member.
