Patent CA-2920255-A1 (CA)
Inventor: PLANTAN RONALD S
IPC: F16D65/28
Filed: 2014-08-05
Abstract: A braking system is provided that enables application and release of a parking brake with fluid control and that also maintains application of the brake during a loss of fluid pressureall without using springs and using only a single fluid control conduit. The brake actuator for the system includes a housing defining service and parking chambers. A pushrod in the parking chamber is configured for movement with a diaphragm in the chamber. The parking brake is applied by introducing fluid on one side of the diaphragm. A clutch surrounds the pushrod and includes a tooth configured to engage corresponding teeth on the pushrod to hold the position of the pushrod even during a loss of fluid pressure. The clutch is rotated under fluid control to move the clutch tooth into and out of alignment with the teeth on the pushrod to hold and release the parking brake.

IPC: C02F1/28
Filed: 2016-02-25
Abstract: The disclosure provides an improved process of removing sulfites, such as but not limited to free, molecular, ionized, bound and combined sulfur dioxide (SO2), from wine and other beverages, by combining sequential steps of passing wine or other beverages containing sulfites through catalytic compound (activated carbon) in step one, and through overflow sorption material (amorphous silica or other suitable silicate compounds) in step two. This sequential treatment of wine results in depletion of sulfites from wine and other beverages, and subsequently removes the untoward substances (derived from atomic sulfur) created by the catalytic treatment.  Together, these steps comprise Method 1 as described in the disclosure. Method 2 is based on treating wine and other beverages containing sulfites with solid phase alumunosilicate ion-exchange compounds. The utilization of Methods 1 and 2 of this invention preserves the integrity of the remaining chemical composition of wine and other beverages tested, notwithstanding combined SO2.  The disclosures of Methods 1 and 2 provide a device for the effective and food-safe removal of sulfites from wine and other beverages.

IPC: E21B43/11
Filed: 2015-08-31
Abstract: [0035] In wellbore completions it is desirable to access multiple formation zones in a single well where the more formation zones that can be accessed tend to make the well increasingly economically viable. In an embodiment of the current invention a dart having a tapered or angled spline with a particular width on the darts exterior surface is pumped into a casing string having a number of devices Incorporated at strategic locations along the casing string. Each of the devices incorporated into the casing string have a slot as a part of the device. Each slot also has a particular width. As the dart passes through the devices incorporated in the casing string but towards the surface of the targeted device, the width of the tapered or angled spline is less than the minimum width of the slots in each of those upper devices. Therefore the dart does not engage or otherwise affect any of the upstream devices. However when the dart reaches the targeted device the width of the spline matches the width of the slot such that the slot captures the spline and the dart to which the spline is attached thereby sealing the wellbore at the targeted device.
