Inventor: BEGUIN PAUL
IPC: G01R27/20
Filed: 2001-10-26
Abstract: The invention relates to a method of surveying a geological formation through which a cased borehole passes, said method being characterized by the fact that:in a first step, current is injected into the casing (11) at a first point (In1) spaced apart longitudinally from said formation so as to cause current to leak into said formation, and electrodes (a, b, c) defining two consecutive sections of casing situated at the level of said formation ,ire used to measure the respective potential drops along said sections;in a second step, current is injected into the casing at a second point (In2) spaced apart longitudinally from the formation and situated on the opposite side thereof from said first point, so as to cause current to leak into the formation, and said electrodes are used to measure the potential drops along said sections;the corresponding measurements of the two steps are combined to obtain the values corresponding to a circuit formed by the casing between the two injection points is and essentially exempt from leakage into the formation; andthe current leakage that is indicative of the resistivity of the formation is determined on the basis of the measurements taken in the first step and in the second step, and of the values resulting from said combination.

Title: Panel mounting system
Filed: 2010-02-05
Abstract: A panel mounting system for mounting a panel (particularly a solar panel) to a structure.

Patent GB-201211411-D0 (GB)
Title: Wireless communication system
Filed: 2012-06-26
Abstract: The invention provides a wireless communication system comprising one or more sensors connected to wireless transmitters and operable to transmit to a wireless receiver a periodic (i.e. t=10,20,30 etc.) digital output signal representing the value of an analogue input signal e.g. sensed gas concentration at a particular location. The transmitter sends an additional digital output signal (e.g. at times T2,T3,T4) representing the value of the analogue input signal if the value changes by more than a threshold value. The rate at which the additional signals are sent may also change depending on the rate of change of the input signal. Thus information is transmitted before the next scheduled periodic signal if the value of the input signal is changing rapidly, but also allows a relatively large interval between transmissions if the value of the input signal only varies by a small amount, thereby providing optimized power consumption.

Title: Tridimensional visualization method and device starting from video signals, especially for electronic microscopy
Inventor: MARRAUD ALAIN ROGER
IPC: G02B21/22
Filed: 1982-01-15
Granted: 1984-10-04
Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of three-dimensional visualization of an object and a device therefor. A video camera, equipped with an image numerator takes photographs supplied by an electron microscope, for different angular positions of an object. The images which are numbered thus are applied to a digital image memory. Under the control of a visualization clock, this memory delivers the line of the same range taken successively in each of the base images to an image visualization member. The member reproduces its lines consecutively, and thus forms a composite image which may be used for relief visualization. In order to re-establish the format of the image, an anamorphosis is carried out, for example, by repeating n times on each line of the composite image each of the image points selected in one of the base images. The composite image which is obtained thus is provided with a lenticular grating of sectors of a cylinder.

Title: A device and method for removing irregularities in or enlarging an underground duct
Inventor: YARNELL IAN ROLAND
IPC: E21B7/28
Filed: 1984-12-11
Granted: 1987-06-11
Abstract: A device for removing irregularities in or enlarging a buried duct comprises a cylindrical housing corresponding approximately in diameter to the required diameter of the duct, an expandable shell comprising a plurality of tapered leaf members pivotally attached at their rear ends to the front of the housing, and remotely controllable drive means for moving the leaf members between contracted and expanded configurations. In operation, the apparatus is drawn through the duct with the leaf members in a contracted configuration in which they enter a portion of the duct of a diameter less than the required diameter. The drive means is operated to force the leaf members outwardly against the sides of the duct to expand the duct. The leaf members are then retracted and the apparatus is drawn forward. The apparatus is particularly intended for preparing damaged sewers prior to fitting an inner, lining pipe. By forming the shell in two sections, of which the nose is cylindrical in the contracted configuration and conical in the expanded configuration, the apparatus can move forward a distance approximately equal to the length of the leaf members with each expansion and contraction cycle, a continuous tension being applied to the chain drawing the device forward.
