Patent CA-2446711-A1 (CA)
Inventor: OHTA TOSHIAKI
IPC: E04C5/08
Filed: 2002-05-17
Abstract: According to a post-tension process, carbon fiber bundles 13a, 13b, which extend from a straight carbon fiber cable 10, are folded and inserted in a sheath 21. U-shaped carbon fiber anchors 33 (burial anchors) are bonded to the folded part of the carbon fiber bundles 13a, 13b. After green concrete is aged to a hardened concrete body 23, the straight carbon fiber cable 10 is stretched by pulling tentative anchors 40a, 40b, and grout 22 is poured in the sheath 21. After the grout 22 is hardened, the straight carbon fiber cable 10 is released from tension by cutting off the tentative anchors 40a, 40b.     Consequently, a concrete member 20 is pre-stressed due to shrinkage of the straight carbon fiber cable 10. According to a pretension process, a carbon fiber hoop is wound on and bonded to a plurality of straight carbon fiber cables, which are arranged parallel to each other. Green concrete is poured in a molding box under the condition that the straight carbon fiber cable are stretched. After the concrete is hardened, the straight carbon fiber cables are released from tension. In any process, the straight carbon fiber cable 10 is held in a loose-free state and provided with carbon fiber anchors instead of conventional steel anchors. As a result, a pre-stressed concrete member excellent in mechanical strength, fatigue properties and corrosion-resistance is manufactured at a low cost.

Title: Hydraulic jar lock
Inventor: LEACH DONALD L
IPC: E21B23/04
Filed: 2004-04-28
Abstract: An internal, positive engagement lock that locks a tool, such as a hydraulic drilling jar, in the fully open position when the tool is racked back and when tripping in and out of the hole close to the surface. The lock mechanism is spring biased into a locked position that provides a positive engagement between two axially translatable components, thus preventing any actuation of the tool. As the tool is run in the hole, increasing hydrostatic pressure within the tool will cause the locking mechanism to shift to a disengaged position and the tool will operate normally. The spring-biased locking mechanism will return to the locked position as hydrostatic pressure decreases as the tool is retrieved to the surface
