Patent BR-9907018-A (BR)
Inventor: PASCOE DAVID MARK
IPC: B60R3/02
Filed: 1999-01-19
Abstract: A power-retractable step assembly for a motor vehicle comprises a substantially sealed housing assembly, a pivoting structure including a step structure, a gear assembly, and a motor assembly. The step structure presents an upper load carrying surface, and the pivoting structure is mounted for pivotal movement about an axis. The gear assembly is disposed in the sealed housing assembly and coupled to the pivoting structure. The motor assembly is drivingly coupled with the gear assembly and is constructed and arranged to pivot the pivoting structure about the axis and thereby drive the pivoting structure between deployed and stored positions. The step structure is moved in an outboard vehicle direction when the pivoting structure is moved from the stored position to the deployed position, and is also moved in a fore-aft vehicle direction when the pivoting structure is moved between the stored and deployed positions. The axis is disposed at an angle such that, as the axis extends upwardly, i) the axis extends in the outboard vehicle direction and ii) the axis extends in a same fore-aft vehicle direction as the fore-aft direction that the step structure moves when the pivoting structure is moved from the stored position to the deployed position.

Filed: 1999-09-06
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing knitted goods in general, hose in particular, with tridimensional effects or shaped goods, preferably fitted with at least one pocket automatically produced with the continuous motion of the needle cylinder. The usual knitted fabric production is modified by excluding, according to a preestablished order, sequences of needles (retaining the last loop or stitch) that are preferably alternated (1:1-2:2-3:1-etc.), even by groups. The knitted tube production goes on, even over several courses, with a differentiated growing, i.e. regions having full needles or ribs and regions having non-full needles or ribs, forming knitted layers or tubes (5, 6) concentric with the inner knitted tube folded upwardly and only partly interstitched or closed in the horizontal direction. The remaining part, which is open, corresponds to the two-layer pouch-like pocket, being the object of the invention.

Title: Downhole gamma ray data correction
Inventor: PLASEK RONALD E
IPC: G01V5/10
Filed: 2000-01-26
Abstract: To correct measured gamma ray data, such as downhole gamma ray logs, for spectral degradation, reference gamma spectra are degraded, a correction factor is calculated between the degraded and reference gamma ray spectra, and the measured gamma ray spectra are corrected using this correction factor. The degradation may be due to inherent differences in measuring instrument characteristics or to elevated temperatures downhole. The appropriate correction factor may be determined according to the amount of spectral degradation shown by the measured gamma ray data or to the temperature of the measurement environment. To correct for temperature effects, a downhole tool including a neutron source and gamma ray detectors is disposed in simulated downhole conditions and the temperature is varied while the simulated environment is irradiated by the neutron source and gamma rays produced by nuclear reactions in the materials of the simulated environment are detected. Characteristics of the simulated environment and of the detector are determined and correlated to determine correction factors for a range of temperatures.
