Granted: 2014-12-09
Abstract: A pneumatic system for a surgical machine includes a reservoir, first and second proportional valves, and a controller. The reservoir holds pressurized gas. The first proportional valve is located on an input side of the reservoir and allows a variable amount of pressurized gas to enter the reservoir. The second proportional valve is located on an output side of the reservoir and allows a second variable amount of pressurized gas to exit the reservoir. The controller controls the operation of the first and second proportional valves. The controller adjusts the first and second proportional valves so that a constant gas pressure range is maintained at an output of the reservoir over a first range of input gas pressures and a second range of gas usage.

Abstract: The foamed article is produced starting from a core layer (1) which comprises a flexible, open-cell foamhaving voids forming at least 90% of the volume of the open-cell foam. The core layer (1) is applied in a mould (6, 8), optionally together with an upper (3) and/or a lower cover layer (2), between a lower (5) and an upper mould surface (9) thereof. The mould (6, 8) is closed and a curable, foamable composition (7) is allowed to foam in the mould to produce a further foamfilling the voids of the open-cell foam. In order to enable to use less foamable composition (7) to fill the voids of the open-cell foam, the core layer (1) is laid onto the lower mould surface (5) and the foamable composition (7) is sprayed onto the corelayer (1) lying onto the lower mould surface so that the foamable composition (7) can penetrate at least partially by gravity into the open-cell foamcore layer (1). Moreover, the foamable composition (7) has a dynamic viscosity, measured at a shear rate of 1/s, of lower than 1000mPa.s when arriving onto the core layer (1).

Title: Optimisation du processus de recuperation domine par un solvant
Inventor: DAWSON MATTHEW A
IPC: E21B47/00

Granted: 2016-11-01
Abstract: Linvention décrit des procédés de répartition dun solvant qui réduit la viscosité parmi un ensemble de puits se terminant en un gisement de pétrole souterrain où la variation dans la vitesse dinjection nette de solvant est minimisée. La vitesse dinjection nette de solvant est la différence entre la vitesse dinjection totale de solvant et la vitesse de production totale de solvant à partir de lensemble de puits, par exemple, sur une base de vitesse instantanée ou quotidienne. La minimisation de cette variation peut réduire les coûts associés à lentreposage de solvant de surface, lentreposage de solvant souterrain et un approvisionnement de solvant, puisque lapprovisionnement de solvant est souvent moins dispendieux lorsquil est approvisionné presque à un taux fixe. Une option est de faire fonctionner des paires de puits et dinjecter un solvant dans un puits de la paire tout en produisant du pétrole et un solvant à partir de lautre puits de la paire. Ces procédés sont particulièrement utiles dans des processus de récupération de pétrole visqueux cycliques et non cycliques par apport de solvant.

Abstract: An apparatus is provided for compressing a loose solid feedstock. The apparatus includes a two stage compressor. The first compression stage is a screw compressor. The second compressor stage is a reciprocating compressor. The reciprocating compressor operates co-axially with, and receives its feed from, the screw compressor. A choke cone maintains pressure in the outfeed from the compressor stages. The reciprocating compressor includes a piston that is driven by a pair of hydraulic rams. The position and operation of the hydraulic rams, the screw conveyor, and the choke cone is monitored by sensors. The reciprocating compressor, the screw conveyor, and the choke cone are all adjustable in real time to control the compression of the feedstock according to a pre-programmed schedule that need not have equal compression and retraction strokes. The operation of the screw conveyor may be advanced or eased off depending on the motion of the reciprocating compressor. The operation of the choke cone may be actively controlled to obtain a coordination with the compressor stages.

Abstract: A seating unit that includes a linkage mechanism adapted to move the seating unit between extended and reclined positions, and a chassis is provided. The linkage mechanism includes a seat-mounting link, a base plate fixedly mounted to the chassis, a back- mounting bracket rotatably coupled to the seat-mounting link, a back drive link in generally laterally-spaced relation to the seat-mounting link, and a front-lift assembly that is rotatably coupled to the seat-mounting link. In operation, a rearward occupant force on the back- mounting bracket generates a rearward bias that is converted to a laterally-directed force through the back drive link to the front-lift assembly. Upon receiving this force, the front- lift assembly translates the seat- mounting link forward and upward in relation to the base plate, such that, the seat-mounting link is consistently biased in a particular inclination angle with respect to the base plate throughout adjustment.
