Title: Downhole calibration system for directional sensors
Inventor: WU JIAN-QUN
IPC: E21B47/022
Filed: 2004-01-22
Abstract: A method and apparatus is disclosed for improving the accuracy of directiona l surveys using magnetometers and accelerometers. The method corrects errors in bias, scale-factor, misalignment of cross-axial magnetometers, and bias or scale- factor of axial magnetometer by requiring the magnitude of measured cross-axial magnetic fie ld to be as constant as possible over several tool face angles at a survey point in a wellbore and the magnitude of the measured total magnetic field and dip angle equal to the reference values, respectively. The axial component of the measured magnetic field is also determined. The method also corrects accelerometers similarly. The calibrati on parameters obtained at one survey point are applied to measurements at other survey points to improve the accuracy of surveys and the efficiency of drilling operations.

Title: Knee joint assembly
Inventor: ANDERSON JACK CONAN
IPC: A01B63/26
Filed: 2004-02-25
Abstract: A knee joint assembly for an agricultural implement or a vehicle includes a relatively short knee casting with an apertured end of rectangular cross section which is inserted in a mating steel knee tube. The apertures in the casting end align with beveled apertures in the side walls of the knee tube. Steel pins of length approximately equal to the spacing of the side walls are pressed into the casting through the beveled apertures. Groove welds then secure the steel pins to the knee tube. The casting is relatively small and does not require any welding. Inexpensive ductile iron and common steel tubes can be used for most or all of the assemblies on a machine. The apertured end of the casting includes concave walls to accommodate knee tube concavity and weld flash on the inside of the knee tube.

Patent CA-2475203-A1 (CA)
Inventor: DIDOSYAN YURI S
IPC: G02F1/09
Filed: 2003-02-12
Abstract: A magnetic, single-axis crystal is used to modify the polarisation state of light, whereby light passes through predetermined areas of the crystal. To change the polarisation state of the light, a magnetic field pulse is applied to the crystal with a magnetic field amplitude, at which the crystal no longer remains in the single-domain state at the end of the pulse, but returns to a defined multi-domain state that is determined by the direction of the applied magnetic field, thus achieving large usable apertures of the switching element and extremely short change periods. According to the invention, energy is only required for the change operation and not for maintaining a specific state.

Patent CA-2480815-A1 (CA)
Inventor: ABDELHADI ABDERRAHIM
IPC: G01V3/02
Filed: 2004-09-07
Abstract: Apparatus for conducting geophysical surveys comprising a multiplicity of intelligent electrodes provided on a multi-conductor cable, for receiving a command signal in response to which predetermined electrodes are connected to selected conductors in the cable. Each intelligent electrode is identical in all respects, including its programming, resulting in simplified construction of the cable and easy replacement of the intelligent electrodes. Instead of assigning a unique address code to each switch in a series of take-outs on a multi-conductor cable, each electronic switch is programmed with the same address code. That is, each switch is programmed to be activated when it receives a code command that, for example, is prefaced with a particular address, e.g. the number 1.  The second part of the code (y) instructs the switch as to which conductor in the multi-conductor cable is to be connected to the local electrode at the location of the switch. When the controller issues a code command that is prefaced by a number which is larger than 1, (e.g. n), then the first switch in the sequence of switches along the cable decrements the preface number. The first switch then re-transmits the code command, with only the preface portion having been changed, (i.e. to n-1), along the cable to the next switch in the series. Each successive switch performs a similar modification to the preface number, and retransmits the progressively modified code command to the next switch in the series. Ultimately, when the modified command reaches the nth switch, it is prefaced with the number 1, whereupon that switch then recognizes it as a valid command to operate. The second part of the command (y) remains unaltered through the repeated re-transmissions, and determines which conductor in the cable is to be connected to the electrode (i.e. to ground).
