IPC: B31B19/90
Filed: 2003-05-20
Abstract: The apparatus applies a transverse zipper strip to a film (10) moving continuously in a direction (12). A continuous belt (18) is driven by sprock et wheels (16a, 16b) and carries upper seal bars (22a, 22b, 22c) which receive pre-cut lengths of zipper at station (3). The pre-cut lengths are attached t o the film (10) by a lower seal bar (24) which moves towards the film (12) at position A when an upper seal bar carrying a zipper strip is located directl y above the film. Sealing takes place as the upper and lower seal bars move at the same speed as the film (12) from position A to position B where the zipp er is released from the upper seal bar (22c). The process then repeats for the next zipper strip length.

Title: Downhole process control method utilizing seismic communication
Inventor: BELL WILLIAM T
IPC: E21B43/1185
Filed: 2003-03-27
Abstract: A seismic communication system suitable to communicate information to an underground device (150) is disclosed. A seismic source (110) (preferably on or near the surface of the earth) generates a timed series of seismic shots. These shots are then detected by one or more seismic receivers (141) underground. Depending on the timing of these seismic shots, and the communication protocol selected, various information may be communicated to the underground target. Such a system is particularly desirable when the underground device includes a perforating gun because the perforating gun ma y not only be remotely detonated without the drawbacks of previous methods, bu t the detonation of the perforating gun charges may also be detected, giving a n indication whether substantially fewer than all of the explosive charges detonated.
