Title: Determination of envelope volume and density of porous samples
Inventor: DUMMER ANDREW KIRK
IPC: G01N15/14
Filed: 2003-07-31
Granted: 2010-06-29
Abstract: A method is provided for nondestructively determining a material property of a porous sample. A first vessel (100) is evacuated to a sub-atmospheric pressure, while a test pressure, greater than the sub-atmospheric pressure, is established in a second vessel (200) containing the sample (300). The pressures of the first and second vessels are equalized by opening a valve mechanism (400) therebetween. The resulting pressure change in the second vessel exhibits an initial pressure drop followed by a transition to an equalization pressure. The envelope volume of the sample is determined from a minimum pressure attained by the second vessel upon initial opening of the valve mechanism, wherein the minimum pressure is related to the initial pressure drop. The envelope density of the sample is thus a quotient of the mass and the envelope volume of the sample. The absolute density and relative absorption of the sample may also be determined and an associated system is provided.

Abstract: A bumper having an outer compressible layer, such as foam, positioned to absorb an impact and an inner layer of fiberglass laminated end- grain balsa for transferring residual load. The layers are wrapped in a fiberglass skin or urethane coating. The bumper is particularly useful when integrated into a frame used to mount fuel cylinders onto a vehicle roof. The bumper is attached to the frame using struts or balsa pillars and mounting plates so that loading resulting from an impact is transferred from the bumper and into the frame for preventing damage to the fuel cylinders. The mounting system can be configured to mount cylinders longitudinally in the direction of travel of the vehicle or transverse to the direction of travel. A bumper is attached at the front of the frame and a second bumper may be positioned at the back of the frame depending upon the configuration of the mounting.

Granted: 2008-06-10
Abstract: The invention is directed to an optical reader station for reading an object and a method of controlling an illumination source in the station for illuminating the object. The optical reader station comprises a mount for an optical reader and a stand with a surface for receiving the object; the optical reader includes an imager (320) with an object field (x) of view in which the object to be read (140) is positioned. The station further includes a radiation source (550) positioned within the object field of view and arranged to be obstructed by the object when the object is in position to be read. A detection mechanism, which is positioned to receive radiation from the radiation source when the radiation source is not obstructed by the object, deactivates the illumination source when radiation source radiation is detected. The detector mechanism may form part of an auto-exposure control in the imager, which senses ambient light impinging on the imager including the radiation from the radiation source for controlling the illumination level of the illumination source, or it may be a separate detector, which senses the radiation from the radiation source for deactivating the illumination source.  The radiation source, which may be an infrared source, a visible light source, a UV source or a luminescence emitter activated by a UV source, may be mounted within the surface of the stand.

Abstract: A casing is provided with a sealable shifting sleeve. A whipstock is insertable into the casing and may be supported off of the casing in a predetermined location so that it is oriented toward an open window in the casing when the shifting sleeve is selectively moved upwardly. By presenting an open window for the whipstock oriented toward the window, a drillbit may be lowered through the casing to interact with the whipstock to immediately begin the drilling of the deviated wellbore. The drillbit cuts through any cement, if present, and into the formation. A bore is presented in the whipstock to allow production from pay zones below the whipstock while it is in place. Should it become necessary, the sliding sleeve may be subsequently closed to isolate the deviated wellbore which has been drilled with the whipstock through the open window.
