Abstract: An aluminum riser assembly (40) has a plurality of riser joints (42) connectable together to form a riser string. When upper and lower joints are assembled, clamps (145) support auxiliary pipes for carrying hydraulic lines. A drive (220) rotates a sleeve rotatably (170) supported on the upper joint, and the sleeve rotates a union nut (160) rotatably disposed on the upper joint. As the union nut rotates, it moves axially along the riser joint and threads onto the lower joint. The union nut is tightened until it engages an external collar (136) to complete the coupling between the upper and lower riser joints. The entire process can then be repeated for additional upper riser joints to make up a riser string.

Title: Tracking filter apparatus for wheel monitoring systems
Inventor: AINSWORTH CHRISTOPHER
IPC: B60C23/04
Filed: 2010-09-17
Abstract: A wheel monitoring system that includes a tracking filter apparatus for tracking a signal that has a varying main frequency. The tracking filter apparatus has an adjustable filter and a filter controller arranged to measure the amplitude of the filtered signal and to compare amplitude against a reference value. The filter controller adjusts the cut off frequency of the filter if the measured amplitude differs from the reference value by an amount that exceeds a threshold value. The filter controller adjusts the cut off frequency such that the main frequency lies within the roll off region of the filter's frequency response. The system may be used to track signals that are produced by shock sensors in a wheel mounted monitoring device.
