Title: Method for prediction of surface related multiples from marine towed dual sensor seismic streamer data
Inventor: SOLLNER WALTER
IPC: G01V1/28
Filed: 2008-04-09
Abstract: Particle motion sensor signals and the pressure sensor signals data from a towed marine seismic streamer are combined to generate an up-going pressure wavefield component and a down-going particle motion wavefield component. The down-going particle motion wavefield component is extrapolated from the receiver position depth level to the source position depth level. The up-going pressure wavefield component is multiplied by the extrapolated down-going particle motion wavefield component, generating a first product. Then, n<th> order surface related multiples in the pressure wavefield are iteratively calculated utilizing a product of (n-1)<th> surface related multiple free data and the extrapolated down-going particle motion wavefield component. The calculated n<th> order surface related multiples are iteratively subtracted from the recorded pressure wavefield, generating the nth order surface related multiple free data.

Title: Dehumidifier with multistage draining
Inventor: CHIU MING-TSUNG
IPC: F24F3/14
Filed: 2008-07-10
Abstract: A dehumidifier with multistage draining has a container 30 that collects and stores condensed water from a dehumidifying assembly 20. Mounted within the container is a float (40 fig 2) connected to an associated actuator 50. The dehumidifier also includes a drain motor (pump) 60 and an attachment actuator 70 having a switch (711 fig 8). The attachment actuator has a connector (76 fig 8) for receiving an external pipe, which when connected operates the attachment actuator switch. When in use, the condensed water in the container gradually increases causing the float to switch on the float actuator. If a pipe is connected to the attachment actuator so that both the float actuator and the attachment actuator are both switched, then the drain motor will start to pump the condensed water out of the container. This permits the dehumidifier to automatically drain condensed water from the container according to the quantity of condensed water and the connection state of the attachment actuator. The dehumidifier also includes a water storage tank 80 and an associated collection tube 34 which connects the container to the water storage tank for additional drainage in the event of drain motor failure or power loss.

Abstract: 505,862. Packing seeds. HARTLEY, V. Nov. 17, 1937, Nos. 10208/38 (divided out of 488,392), 12294/38, and 19074/38. [Class 94 (i)] A machine for producing sheets for storing and sowing seeds of the kind described in Specification 488,392 comprises tensioning and guiding rolls C, Fig. 1, over which the web a is drawn, and a gumming roller e adapted to apply a viscous adhesive. The roller e is formed' with a number of grooved ridges which pick up the adhesive from a roll e<2>. The web is brought into the proximity of the roller e but does not press upon it, and picks up a series of protuberant lines of adhesive. The web now passes below a bucket conveyer g which drops seeds from a hopper h so that they fall in a direction parallel to the motion of the web. The seeds adhere to the stripes of adhesive and the surplus falls back into the hopper. A second web is gummed by a roller k and is united with the first by pressure bands l. In an alternative arrangement, the web a is provided with spots of gum instead of continuous stripes. In another form, Fig. 1a, the web passes from a roll A to a printing unit 5, an adhesive applying unit 19 and hopper 9. The unit 19 comprises a slotted tube 19 filled with adhesive by gravity from a tank 21. The adhesive passes through the slots on to the paper and forms stripes thereon. The tube is angularly adjustable so that the width of the stripe may be varied. The paper now passes through the hopper, and, in cooperation with edge guides 8, forms the front wall. The seeds pass from the supply 9 over an inclined floor 7, scalloped at the edge to avoid contact with the adhesive, and are picked up by the adhesive and carried away on the web. A roller 50 may be provided with felt strips to beat the underside of the web to cause loose seeds to fall back into the hopper. A second web is fed from a roll B and is supplied with adhesive by another slotted tube 22 and is united with the first web by pressure bands 16. The tube 22 is encircled by a sleeve 24, Figs. 4 and 5, which can be adjusted by a handle 25 to vary the flow of adhesive. The composite web passes into a drying chamber 27 and travels round rollers 28. The guide roller 30 is counterbalanced by weights 32, an alarm device 37 being provided to indicate when the roller 30 has reached the end of its stroke. Jets of hot air are directed on to the web through nozzles 35. The web may be cut into sheets. In a modified form of hopper, Fig. 10, some of the stripes of adhesive are shrouded by shields 41 to prevent seeds in a lower hopper from adhering, so that different seeds may be applied in an upper hopper.

Abstract: 1305763 Evaporators, flash type; desalination of water P R BOM 5 March 1970 [11 March 1969] 10576/70 Heading B1B In an evaporator, for the partial evaporation of crude (e.g. salt) water, comprising a series of flash chambers 6, 20 .. each containing condenser tubes 3 (cooled by water-tobe-evaporated), a condensate receptacle 8 and a hood 10 for collecting non-condensable gases, the condensate obtained in each chamber flows into duct 13 through a separate pipe 24, 25 .. which can be shut off by a valve 26, 27 ... Duct 13 is divided into compartments 18, 19 .. by partitions 16, 17 ... The condensate 9 in chamber 6 flows through pipe 24 into the compartment 18 of duct 13, whence it flows through by-pass 36 into the next compartment 19. The non-condensable gases collected in space 12 under hood 10 in chamber 6 flow through holes 37, 38 into compartment 18 of duct 13, and then flow through aperture 39 into the next flash chamber 20. As the condensate flows from opening 28, some evaporation occurs since the pressure in compartment 18 is lower than that in chamber 6; and the vapours flow through aperture 39 into chamber 20. A short-circuit pipe 30, 31 .. with a valve 32, 33 .. extends from each condensate space to the crude water layer in the bottom of each flash chamber. If a chamber, e.g. chambers 6, begins to produce impure condensate, valve 26 is closed and valve 32 is opened. The condensate from -chamber 6 now flows directly to the crude water layer 5, so that chamber 6 is disconnected from the pure water production process, but the flow of condensate from the chamber (not shown) preceding chamber 6 passes through by-pass 35 and compartment 18 into compartment 19, while the non-condensable gases can also continue their passage through the apparatus. In an alternative evaporator (Fig. 2, not shown), pipes 30 and 31 are omitted, but a U-tube extends from each condensate space into the flash space of each chamber.
