Patent CA-2444507-A1 (CA)
Inventor: NOWICKY DAVID A
IPC: E05B63/24
Filed: 2003-10-09
Abstract: This lockable latch with catch for use with briefcase type fireproof safes allows the user to carry the safe by its handle (briefcase style) without the lid being locked to the body. It has both a latch and a catch that can pivot or move away from their engagement positions in a plane parallel to, and within, the body of the safe. A release button pivots the latch away from its engagement position ana thereby unlatches the latch. Alternatively, a locking member can be interposed so as to prevent the latch from pivoting away from its position of engagement with the catch when the safe is locked. When the locking member is engaged and the latch is thereby locked into engagement position, the ability of the catch to temporarily pivot or move out of the way of the latch still allows the safe lid to snap shut.

IPC: G01V3/32
Filed: 2002-04-18
Abstract: An apparatus (Figure 1) and a method for measurement of NMR relaxation parameters of earth formation (25) uses a coil (13) on a logging tool (11) to substantially polarize nuclear spins within a volume of earth (25). The polarizing pulses then switch off adiabatically. The magnetization of the spins then processes around earth's magnetic field (21) at a Larmor frequency corresponding to the earth's field (21). A second coil (15) on the logging tool (11) is pulsed with a carrier signal having this frequency and modulated by CPMG sequence to obtain spin echo signals. The spin echo signals may be received by the same coil (13) or by a second coil (15). Alternatively, beem steering of two coils (13 and 15) on the tool (11) may be carried out to ensure a resultant field that has a significant component transverse to the earth's field (21) for carrying out the spin echo measurements.
