Patent CA-2957709-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SIMPSON ALLEN
IPC: F16D65/12
Filed: 2015-08-10
Abstract: The present disclosure describes brake rotor preforms and brake pads configured to reduce fracturing and failure of brake rotors by distributing the axial force applied during braking across butt joints between abutting segments of preforms and rotors manufactured therefrom. The preforms comprise a spiral annular structure formed about a longitudinal axis from a plurality of carbon fiber precursor tow segments having a partial annular shape. Each segment is asymmetrical when viewed in the longitudinal axis direction and configured so planes defined by the segment's ends are never coplanar with planes extending radially from the longitudinal axis. The brake pads have a partial annular shape and ends adapted to prevent planes defined by the ends from being coplanar during use with a plane extending radially from a brake rotor longitudinal axis.

Abstract: A method for determining maximum horizontal stress in a subsurface formation includes using recordings of seismic energy detected proximate the subsurface formation to determine hypocenters of microseismic events. A focal mechanism for each microseismic event is determined. A measurement corresponding to vertical stress magnitude at a depth of the subsurface formation is used to normalize horizontal stress magnitudes for formation depth. The focal mechanism is used to determine a maximum horizontal stress direction. A measurement corresponding to a depth normalized minimum horizontal stress magnitude and the focal mechanism are used to determine a depth normalized maximum horizontal stress magnitude.

Inventor: KNOTT CHRISTOPHER M
IPC: E21B33/03
Filed: 2017-10-26
Abstract: A method for pre-pressurizing fluid control valves is provided. The fluid control valves may be part of a hydraulic fracturing tree, or may be part of a so-called zipper frac manifold. In either instance, the method uses a lubrication unit for pre-pressurizing the cavity of a valve by injecting lubricant under high pressure. The fracturing tree or zipper frac manifold is useful for conducting hydraulic fracturing operations as part of the completion of a well. Each control valve has an upper lube fitting extending to an upper lube channel which communicates with an upper pocket. Similarly, each control valve includes a lower lube fitting extending to a lower lube channel which communicates with a lower pocket. A pressurized lubricating fluid is forced into the lube fittings to pre-pressurize the control valves prior to the fracturing fluid passing through the control valves. The method of pre-pressurizing the control valve restricts scarring by the fracturing fluid of the internal components of the control valve by equalizing pressure.

Abstract: Golf carts are typically large and relatively heavy vehicles that either needs to be stored at the golf course, or to be transported home or to another golf course on a trailer. This adds cost and complexity to the use of a golf cart. And since golf carts are often used by people with limited physical strength, the handling problems become more significant. The present invention minimises these problems by providing a relatively simple and light weight vehicle that can be operated on golf courses, and which can be disassembled to fit into the back of a car, or can be mounted on a tow bar. The vehicle is lightweight, stable on golfing fairways and is simple to steer, due to an innovative lean steering system, in which the body of the vehicle is able to pivot in a controlled manner relative to both a front and a rear axle.
