Abstract: System, methods and devices for analyzing drilling fluids are presented herein. A fluid analysis system for determining at least one characteristic of a drilling fluid is disclosed. The system includes a pump and two reversible fluid ports each configured, when in a first state, to intake drilling fluid into the fluid analysis system and, when in a second state, to expel drilling fluid from the fluid analysis system. A valve fluidly couples the reversible fluid ports to the pump. The valve controls the respective states of the reversible fluid ports. At least one measurement module is fluidly coupled to the pump to receive drilling fluid therefrom. The at least one measurement module is configured to determine at least one characteristic of the drilling fluid. Filters can be fluidly coupled with each of the reversible fluid ports.

Abstract: Polymer foam is made from a two-component foam system. The foam system includes an A-side component which contains a multifunctional Michael acceptor and a blowing agent that has a boiling temperature in the range -40°C to +100°C. The system also includes a B-side component that contains a multifunctional carbon-Michael donor, a surfactant and a blowing agent that has a boiling temperature in the range -40°C to +100°C. The viscosities of each of the components are 2,500 cPs or lower. Foam is made by separately pressurizing the components, then separately depressurizing them so they each at least partially expand. The partially expanded materials are then combined in the presence of a carbon-Michael reaction catalyst to form a reaction mixture which is cured to form the polymer foam.

Patent CA-2867209-A1 (CA)
Inventor: DUECK FRED P
IPC: A01C5/00
Filed: 2014-10-01
Abstract: A planter with a two-point hitch is converted to a drawbar configuration through use of an existing through-bore in the planter's pull tongue that originally served as part of a swiveling connection between the tongue and the two-point hitch.  A pinned connection to the frame of the conversion unit via this existing through-bore of the planter tongue is augmented with a clamping mechanism that secures the planter tongue in place between two spaced-apart side plates of the conversion unit to prevent relative rotation between the planter tongue and the conversion unit about the axis of the coupling pin. The side plates are shaped so as not to interfere with connection lugs on the pull tongue of the planter where diagonal braces are connected between the tongue and foldable of the planter. Installation requires no modification to the planter, and the conversion unit is entirely removable in a non-destructive manner.

Patent CA-2870615-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BELOUS VLADIMIR IOSIFOVICH
IPC: F02C3/14
Filed: 2013-03-26
Abstract: The invention relates to continuous-combustion open-layout gas-turbine engines, and can be used in transport plants, for example, in aviation plants and in power-generating plants, and also as a drive in gas-pumping units. An at least two-shaft engine (Figure 2) comprises a high-pressure combustion chamber (29) and a low-pressure combustion chamber (30). A bypass channel (31) is constructed, along which some of the flow of working fluid can freely flow from the output of a low-pressure compressor (26) to the input of a turbine stage of corresponding low pressure. In contrast to known engines, the bypass channel (31) is provided with automatically acting flaps (32) and (33) which allow passage of the flow of working fluid only in one direction - from the compressor to the turbine. This makes it possible, in operating conditions when only one high-pressure combustion chamber (29) is in operation, for the entire flow of working fluid to pass through said combustion chamber. This results in a high level of economy in said conditions.
