Abstract: A movable writing tablet for a chair comprising of a tablet mounted to a tablet support. A double rotating hinge connects to the tablet and support on one end, and is connected to a support block on the other end. The other end of the support block is connectable to a stack chair. The double rotating hinge enables the writing tablet to rotate about a horizontal and a vertical plane such that it can be positioned in the open or closed position.  The tablet can be positioned in a vertical position adjacent to the support block allowing vertical stacking of chairs equipped with similar writing tablets. When the writing tablet is in the closed position it enables vertical stacking of chairs by automatically shifting from its vertical to a tilted position, allowing the tablets to stack on top of each other. Vertical stacking of two or more chairs allows their associated writing tablets to "nest" one on top of the other.

Abstract: An internal combustion engine has a throttle controlling mechanism, a valve characteristics varying mechanism for controlling an internal EGR rate by controlling an overlap time (Pa) and a non-overlap time (Pb), and output setting means for setting a demand amount of an engine output. The throttle controlling mechanism controls the degree of opening of a throttle valve so that the throttle valve is fully opened at a predetermined load (Da) as an operation amount (D) increases in a first load region (Fa) where a load up to the predetermined load (Da) in a low load region (F1) is covered, and controls the throttle valve so that the throttle valve is fully opened at a second load region (Fb) where the predetermined load (Da) is exceeded. The valve characteristics varying mechanism controls in the entire load range the overlap time (Pa) or the non-overlap time (Pb) depending on the demand amount to control an engine output, and controls valve operation characteristics so that the maximum internal EGR rate is achieved at the predetermined load (Da).

Title: Method, system and tool for reservoir evaluation and well testing during drilling operations
Inventor: WIEMERS TIM
IPC: E21B47/10
Filed: 2001-09-19
Abstract: A novel method, system and tool for performing formation and well evaluation while drilling are disclosed. These inventions determine the properties of a particular formation within a reservoir as the reservoir is being intersected during well construction. In one form of the invention, the formation evaluation is made using a direct measurement of the formation's ability to flow fluids. The flow potential of a reservoir during underbalanced well construction is determined as the well is being constructed. The methods produce an understanding of the volumes and types of the fluids such as oil, gas, and/or water, that can be produced out of discrete sections of a formation within a reservoir as the reservoir is intersected. The trajectory and path of the wellbore through the reservoir are modified to intersect formation having more desirable permeability and productivity to decrease the time to market of the hydrocarbon reserves within a reservoir without the time delay inherent when conventional formation evaluation techniques are applied. A downhole flow measurement instrument is used to obtain actual flow ratios. The instrument is integrated into a near-bit stabilizer and can be used for early kick and benign "breathing" fractures detection in the open hole wellbore.
