Title: Deployment of dual reflector systems
Inventor: NGUYEN STEPHEN D
IPC: H01Q1/28

Granted: 2002-11-12
Abstract: A method and system for deploying a multi-reflector antenna system (10). The antenna system (10) includes an antenna structure (12) mounted to a satellite (14), where an antenna feed array (16) is mounted to the antenna structure (12). A  single articulated antenna arm assembly (26) is mounted to the antenna structure (12) by a first spring loaded hinge (28). The arm assembly (26) includes a first arm (30) on which is mounted a first reflector (38), and a second arm (32) on which is mounted a second reflector (40). The first and second arms (30, 32) are connected to each other by a second spring loaded hinge (34) such that the reflectors (38, 40) directly oppose each other and are substantially parallel when the arm assembly (26) is in the stowed position. A plurality of launch locks (44, 46, 50, 54) hold the arm assembly (26) in the stowed position against the bias of the hinges (28, 34) prior to deployment. When the antenna system (10) is ready to be deployed, the launch locks (44, 46, 50, 54) are released in a predetermined sequence such that the arm assembly (26) first moves away from the feed array (16) under the bias of the first hinge (28), and then the second arm (32) moves away from the first arm (30) under the bias of the second hinge (34). When the antenna system (10) is in the fully deployed state, the feed array (16) and the first and second reflectors (38, 40) are oriented relative to each other to define a side-fed geometry.

Title: Pneumatic ground piercing tool with movable chisel head
Inventor: RANDA MARK D
IPC: E21B10/40
Filed: 2001-01-22
Granted: 2006-08-15
Abstract: A ground piercing tool has an elongated tubular tool housing and a striker that reciprocates within an internal chamber of the housing. The striker impacts a front impact surface and drives the tool through the ground. An air distributing mechanism causes the striker to reciprocate in response to a supply of compressed fluid. An anvil providing a front impact surface is disposed in a front end opening of the tool housing. The anvil has a rear frustoconical portion that engages a like-shaped forwardly tapering inner wall of the housing and a lengthwise bore that has an enlarged diameter portion. A chisel is slidably disposed in the bore of the anvil and has an outwardly opening annular groove. A spring is confined in compression in a space defined by the annular groove of the chisel and the enlarged diameter portion of the anvil bore. The spring urges the rear end of the chisel to protrude rearwardly from the bore of the anvil a predetermined distance. The spring compresses as the striker delivers an impact to the chisel and moves the chisel forward until the striker contacts a rear end of the anvil.

Abstract: L'invention se rapporte à un procédé de production de corps à base de nitrate d'ammonium se présentant sous forme particulaire. Selon ce procédé, on utilise un mélange liquide d'eau et de nitrate d'ammonium contenant au moins 92 % et de préférence au plus 97,5 % en poids de nitrate d'ammonium, avec éventuellement une partie du nitrate d'ammonium substituée par un nitrate de métal alcalino-terreux et/ou alcalin, et une petite quantité d'un modificateur des caractéristiques cristallines du sulfonate de polystyrène. On pulvérise ledit mélange de façon à disperser des gouttelettes dans une atmosphère dans laquelle le refroidissement provoque la cristallisation du nitrate d'ammonium et dans laquelle on sèche les particules cristallisées de façon à en extraire l'humidité. Ledit mélange liquide contient également du sulfate d'ammonium, la concentration du sulfonate de polystyrène dans le mélange gazeux est d'au moins 0,01 %, et de préférence comprise entre 0,02 % et 0,06 %, en poids, et la concentration du sulfate d'ammonium dans le mélange gazeux est supérieure à celle du sulfate de polystyrène et égale au moins à 0,04 %, de préférence comprise entre 0,06 et 0,15 %, en poids. Les corps à base de nitrate d'ammonium, de préférence des utricules, produits selon ce procédé peuvent contenir moins de 0,1 % en poids d'eau et être capables d'absorber pas moins de 6 % de leur poids de mazout tout en subsistant sous forme de matière particulaire susceptible d'être versée.

IPC: F28F9/013
Filed: 2001-03-16
Granted: 2004-09-28
Abstract: A lattice high bar for a nuclear steam generator tube support bar array has scalloped indentations along its length. The scalloped indentations are located at points on the high bar where water tubes will contact the high bar. The indentations extend from one edge of the high bar to about two-thirds of the distance across the bar. When the high bars are used in a lattice bar array, only the unscalloped portion of the high bar contacts an adjacent supported tube, thereby reducing the contact area and the likelihood of corrosion and cracking and also reducing the length over which inspection is impeded. Additionally, the flow path created by opposed but overlapping scallops at the 120° intersections at certain points along the high bars improves the flow sweeping over the surface of the supported tube.

Abstract: The improved shock actuated sensor is used with shock activation valves which have a shock activation control mechanism. The control mechanism includes a pedestal with a vertical tube disposed thereround and a weight in the form of a ball supported on the pedestal upper end. When a shock or vibration force is experienced the ball is displaced horizontally from a rest position to a side of the control mechanism where it engages the vertical tube that causes the valve to close. The improvement includes a pedestal upper end with a circumferential step to aid the ball in engaging the vertical tube to activate the valve closing. The step allows gravity, in addition to the shock force, to urge the ball to move the vertical tube. The pedestal upper end may also have a recess in the form of an open cylindrical recess to support the ball.

Title: Tubing conveyed fracturing tool and method
Inventor: MCGILL HOWARD L
IPC: E21B23/00
Filed: 2002-03-07
Granted: 2007-02-06
Abstract: A tubing conveyed multi-position well treating tool having a tubular housing and a tubular inner member which are relatively positionable at "Set", "Treat", "Dump" and "Release" positions actuated by a mechanical indexing mechanism. The indexing mechanism is loaded by a spring, such as a compressed gas spring or mechanical spring, which urges the tubular housing away from the tubing connection of the inner tubular member, thus requiring no set-down forces for tool actuation or indexing. The treating tool is anchored within the well casing by hydraulic pressure actuated buttons, thus eliminating the typical requirement for anchoring actuation by set-down forces. The treating tool is sealed within the casing by pressure energized packers which are activated by the hydraulic pressure of fluid supplied from the tubing. The tool provides a bypass passage to allow communication of the zones above and below the tool while isolating the straddled interval to be treated.
