Granted: 2007-03-27
Abstract: An illuminating optical system for focusing a radiant light of a light source (1) onto a reflecting light valve (6) and a projection lens (7) for magnifying and projecting a reflected light from the reflecting light valve (6) onto a screen are provided, a diaphragm (31) is disposed at a substantially conjugate position of an entrance pupil of the projection lens (7) on an optical path of the illuminating optical system, the diaphragm (31) has an opening whose area is changed by a light-shielding member, and a shape of a shielded portion of the diaphragm (31) shielded by the light-shielding member is rotationally asymmetric to an optical axis (12) of the illuminating optical system. Accordingly, shielding of necessary light can be better avoided compared with a diaphragm for changing the light-shielding area in a rotationally symmetric manner, for example, a diaphragm for narrowing the opening concentrically, making it possible to improve contrast performance while minimizing brightness reduction.

Title: Estimation of transversal motion of the nmr tool during logging
Inventor: BEARD DAVID
IPC: G01R33/44
Filed: 2002-05-01
Granted: 2007-03-06
Abstract: NMR measurements made with a moving tool are affected by incomplete polarization of the nuclear spins in the region where the Larmor frequency o f static field matches the RF signal frequency. Simulation results show that t he in-phase and quadrature components of spin echo signals are affected by the velocity of lateral motion of a logging tool in a borehole. A phase drift indicator is obtained by summing the quadrature and in-phase components over a window and taking the ratio of the windowed sums. The phase drift indicator shows an increase with time. In a tool with a gradient magnetic field, the phase drift indicator increases with time even for no tool motion. The reduction in magnitude of spin echo data due to tool motion alone may be obtained by comparing the magnitude of simulated echoes with and without too l motion.

Abstract: A high performance cable tie includes an elongate strap, and a head extending from one end of the strap. The strap and pawl teeth each have convex portions which engage one another during insertion of the strap through the head. The strap and pawl teeth also each have planar portions which engage one another to obstruct retraction of the strap from the head. The longitudinal spacing of the strap and pawl teeth are equivalent. The surface of the pawl between the exit end of the passageway and the pawl tooth nearest thereto has a concave portion which engages the convex portion of the opposing strap tooth when the pawl pivots in response to retraction of the strap from the head. This pivoting of the pawl is limited by a heel which engages an inner surface of the head.
