Abstract: The present invention relates to improvements in pipe connectors particularly but not exclusively for use in the oil industry for connecting metal pipe sections of a pipe string. The pipe connector comprising a tubular pin member (1) having a generally frusto-conical outer peripheral surface (3) and a tubular box member (2) having a generally frusto-conical inner peripheral surface (4) corresponding to the frusto-conical outer peripheral surface of the pin member and which overlies the frusto-conical surface of the pin member when the members are fully engaged together. The members are provided with interengageable annular projections (5) and grooves (6) on the said peripheral surfaces for axially locking the members together when they are fully engaged together, the projections and grooves being spaced apart along the surfaces. Means (9, 10, 11) are provided for supplying hydraulic fluid under pressure between the overlying parts of the surfaces (3, 4) of the members when fully engaged together to expand the box member (2) and/or contract the pin member (1) to bring the projections (5) out of engagement with the corresponding grooves (6) and permit the members to be disengaged. The members include means (12, 13, 14, 15) for radially restraining the free end of at least one of the members of the connector and the extent ofthe radial overlap at full engagement of at least the projections (5) and grooves (6) in the region of the said free end of the one member and the corresponding inner end of the other member is reduced relative to that in the region of the centre of the connector.

Abstract: A drill string (13) for making boreholes is driven with a drill (14) fixed to it. A pump (11) feeds a liquid flow along a line (12) to the drilling tool. In this new configuration, the pump has a flexible tube (15) fixed to the drill string, around which it is held in part-circular form, at constant spacing. The pump stator (30) is held against rotation against the wall of the borehole, as the drill string rotates relatively to it. The stator has an arm (32) extending radially, located between string and the flexible tube. This locally squeezes and runs over the tube as string and tube rotate together. Also claimed is the corresponding support which transfers torque from a drilling unit to the walls of a borehole. This support has a base with a central opening and bearing through which passes the drill string. At least three holders range radially from the base. These holders have rollers at their ends, rotating perpendicular to the drill string axis and tangential to its direction of rotation. A compression device pushes the holders radially out from the base.

Abstract: A capacitive transducer (10) which provides an output voltage in response to the application of a mechanical stimulus such as pressure or acceleration includes a signal conditioning integrated circuit (12) to which are connected a variable capacitor (C<sub>VAR</sub>), a reference capacitor (C<sub>REF</sub>), a linear correction capacitor (C<sub>LIN</sub>) as well as an integrating capacitor (C<sub>INT</sub>) and associated filtering components. The linear correction capacitor (C<sub>LIN</sub>) is used to offset a fixed parasitic charge associated with the variable capacitor. Any net error charge appearing on a detect, common node (pin 4) between the variable capacitor and the reference capacitor is cancelled out by means of an analog feedback network (22). In a modified embodiment a thermal compensation network (40) allows for correction for thermal error at a second temperature without having any affect at a first temperature.

Abstract: The present invention provides a 3D real-time
graphics generator (Fig.1) for generating progressive
polygon data for rendering 3D graphics that can reduce
the amount of data processing by a computer and a
storage area(106) for polygon data, and facilitates
editing of an object by using the progressive polygon
data so as to reduce the amount of work of an animator.
The progressive polygon data includes information about
vertices of a basic polyhedron approximate to the shape
of a 3D object and information about detailed vertices
of a polyhedron in a level of approximation to the
object that is higher than the basic polyhedron, which
are determined progressively based on the level of
approximation. In the generation of 3D real-time
graphics, detailed vertices are sequentially merged
(1026) into the vertices of the basic polyhedron so as
to produce 3D polygon data.
