Patent CA-2153832-A1 (CA)
Title: Ready to assemble cabinet
Inventor: PHILLIPS ERNEST LEVI JR
IPC: A47B47/00
Filed: 1995-07-13
Abstract: Office furniture, particularly file cabinets are constructed from metal wall panels having cooperating hems and flanges along predetermined edges thereof.  The hems and flanges are formed out of the component parts of the cabinet such that when two edges come together, one contains a hem and the other a flange.  The hem contains a slot in which the flange fits to secure the walls of the cabinet.  The hem is constructed with holes to receive inclined tabs formed in the flange such that the assembled hem and flange form a square, rigid connection that cannot be disassembled.  This construction allows furniture to be shipped unassembled in compact boxes, reducing the cost of shipping and storage, and assembled on site by the customer.

Patent CA-2163845-A1 (CA)
Inventor: DUGGAN JAMES A
IPC: B21K1/06
Filed: 1995-11-27
Abstract: A method for forming a one-piece steering shaft member, such as an externally splined male steering shaft member (or yoke shaft) or an internally splined female steering shaft member (or slip yoke) is disclosed. A hollow cylindrical tube is initially provided which is preferably formed from a blank of a metallic material, such as aluminum, having an elongation factor of at least fifteen percent. It is desirable that the tube have a uniform wall thickness and define an outer diameter which is substantially uniform along the length thereof. The outer diameter of one end of the tube is reduced from its original diameter. A splined surface is formed in the reduced diameter end portion of the tube. The splined surface is formed on the external surface of the yoke shaft and on the internal surface of the slip yoke. The other end of the tube is then deformed so as to provide a generally hollow rectangular cross sectional shape. This can be done in such a manner as to provide uniform wall thicknesses for all four of the sides of the hollow rectangular end of the tube. Alternatively, a first pair of opposed sides of the hollow rectangular end of the tube may be formed having a first wall thickness, while a second pair of opposed sides may be formed having a second wall thickness different from the first wall thickness. U-shaped portions of material are next removed from two of the opposed sides of the hollow rectangular end of the tube. Lastly, a bore is formed through each of the yoke ears, and the square corners of the yoke ears are rounded off. The finished steering shaft member may be heat treated in a conventional manner if necessary.

Title: Formation density measurement apparatus and method
Inventor: SPROSS RONALD L
IPC: G01V5/12
Filed: 1994-12-07
Abstract: A method and apparatus (10) for determining at least one characteristic of a formation is provided which includes storing a plurality of counts received from both a long space radiation detector (12) and a short space radiation detector (14). The counts are detected during a plurality of short duration time periods which are brief compared to rotary drilling speed, A count rate mean is determined and used to sort each of the plurality of count measurements into one of at least three bins, Count information accumulated in at least one of the bins is used to calculate a corrected density. A short space collimator (20) enhances the count rate of singly scattered gamma rays detected by the short space detector (14) and blocks gamma rays from the formation radially outwardly of the short space detector (14) to improve spine-rib correction characteristics for relatively short standoffs. The method of sorting the plurality of short duration time period measurements improves the accuracy for short standoffs to larger standoffs.

Title: Thionation process using elemental phosphorus and sulfur
Inventor: GRIFFITH EDWARD JACKSON
IPC: C01B25/14
Filed: 1995-03-27
Abstract: There is disclosed a novel process for preparing products of the reaction of elemental phosphorus and elemental sulfur under reaction conditions wherein the phosphorus and sulfur are combined in a pre-mix at temperatures below the reaction temperature. The pre-mix may contain a diluent which is preferably the product of the reaction. Phosphorus pentasulfide can be prepared by heating the pre-mix to reaction temperatures wherein lower exotherm temperatures and reduced vibration are observed. Organophosphorus and thionated products can be prepared by the reaction of elemental sulfur and elemental phosphorus together with an organic compound wherein the ratio of phosphorus and sulfur generally corresponding to P2S5. The process obviates the need for separately preparing phosphorus pentasulfide to prepare thionated and organophosphorus compounds.
