Title: Measurement-while-drilling assembly using gyroscopic devices and methods of bias removal
Inventor: KAHN JON B
IPC: E21B47/022
Filed: 2001-08-29
Abstract: This invention provides a measurement-while-drilling (MWD) downhole
assembly for use in drilling boreholes which utilizes gyroscopes, magnetometers and
accelerometers for determining the borehole inclination and azimuth during the
drilling of the borehole. The downhole assembly includes at least one gyroscope that
is rotatably mounted in a tool housing to provide signals relating to the earth's
rotation. A device in the tool can rotate the gyroscope and other sensors on the tool to
one of a plurality of preselected positions and optionally lock the sensors. A
processor in the tool combines measurements from the sensors taken at a plurality of
positions at the same depth to determine the systematic bias in the sensors before
further processing. Accelerometers in the MWD tool provide gravity measurements
from which the toolface and inclination are determined. The unbiased gyroscopic
measurements are used in conjunction with the tool face and inclination
measurements to determine the azimuth and tool face with respect to true north.
Additionally, when measurements are made with magnetic, accelerometer and
gyroscopic measurements along three different axes, the unbiased measurements may
be combined to provide an improved determination of the tool orientation. Using the
locking mechanism, measurements may be made with the sensor housing locked in
place during continuing drilling operations. When used with a drilling liner system,
the sensor assembly may be retrieved using a wireline. With the present invention, a
secondary borehole for secondary recovery operations may be drilled with accuracy in
proximity to a producing borehole.

Abstract: A method and system are disclosed for spinning the
spindle motor of a disk drive from a stationary state to an
operable state that is suitable for performing a memory
access operation. The method and system include energizing
the polyphase motor in a first predetermined commutation
phase; detecting whether a zero crossing of a back
electromotive force (bemf) signal corresponding to the first
predetermined commutation phase occurs; sensing whether the
polyphase motor advanced to a next successive commutation
phase relative to the first predetermined commutation phase;
and performing an acceleration procedure to accelerate the
speed of the polyphase motor towards a desired speed based
upon a detected zero crossing of the bemf signal and an
affirmative determination that the polyphase motor advanced
to a next successive commutation phase relative to the first
predetermined commutation phase.

Abstract: Cette invention concerne un gobelet inversable constitué par un gobelet proprement dit et par un couvercle munie d'un bec. Le couvercle comporte également un évent destiné à maintenir la pression ambiante dans la tasse. Cet évent est muni d'une membrane hydrophobe qui permet à l'air de pénétrer dans la tasse, mais empêche le liquide de couler au dehors par ledit évent. Le couvercle comporte un boîtier de clapet sur le côté entrée du bec. Ce clapet comporte un diaphragme maintenu dans le boîtier, qui vient normalement s'engager dans le siège de clapet et empêche le liquide de passer du gobelet dans le bec. Lorsque l'enfant aspire par le bec, la pression régnant sur le côté entrée du diaphragme décolle ce dernier du siège du clapet et laisse le liquide de s'écouler du gobelet dans le bec. Lorsque l'enfant cesse d'aspirer, le diaphragme revient immédiatement sur son siège en position de fermeture, ce qui empêche le liquide de passer de l'intérieur du gobelet dans le bec.

Abstract: Cette invention concerne une alimentation d'énergie non interruptible (UPS) modulaire constituée de multiples modules de puissance. Chacun de ces modules contient un circuit de dérivation interne calculé en fonction du module qu'il équipe et de préférence capable de supporter deux charges par unité. Le système comprend également, pour chaque module de puissance, un circuit de commande interne qui règle le passage entre les modes inverseur et dérivation. On utilise à la fois un bus de communication grande vitesse et une ligne de maintien haut niveau pour réduire la durée de l'interruption due au transfert et garantir simultanément que l'inverseur ne fonctionne jamais en parallèle avec la tension du réseau public. Pour réduire encore la durée de transfert, on utilise un circuit de commutation transistorisé qui assure l'initialisation entre les modes de fonctionnement. Pour maximiser l'efficacité pendant le fonctionnement en mode de dérivation, on fait intervenir un relais électromécanique coordonné avec le dispositif de commutation transistorisé pour assurer les besoins d'énergie de façon soutenue pendant le fonctionnement en mode de dérivation.

Abstract: A videoconferencing application suitable for large conferences with many terminals where displayed speakers are changed dynamically based on some schema employs animation effects to indicate the change. When a new speaker replaces an old, the new speaker's image is gradually transitioned into the place of the old speaker's by an animation that provides a clear cue and a visual metaphor for the event. A preferred embodiment translates the new image in and the old one out as if the new one were pushing the old image out of its place. Various other animations are also described which provide a similar result.

Abstract: A communications packet network is planned by the use of a planning tool. The tool comprises an input for inputting requirements of the network; and an input for determining factors which effect the passage of packet based data through the network. A modelling module determines the performance of the network based on the requirements and factors. The performance of model is compared with that of an objective comparison model. A feedback mechanism iteratively adjusts the input factors to improve the performance and maintain the network requirements. When the desired performance level is achieved, a plan of the network is output from the planning tool.

Abstract: Disclosed are a gas discharge tube used for the backlight of a liquid crystal display (LCD) or the like and a drive method for the same. A flat type gas discharge tube comprises two plane glasses, a barrier and at least one electrode group comprised of a plurality of parallel electrodes. Voltages are applied to each electrode group in one discharge period in such a way that discharges of a rare gas dispersed spatially and along the time are allowed to occur. Even when a single gas discharge tube is used for the backlight of an LCD having a large display area, therefore, it does not suffer luminance unevenness and the locations of discharge can be dispersed spatially and along the time, thus ensuring a high emission efficiency. As the backlight does not require a light guide plate or a diffusion sheet, its manufacturing cost becomes lower.
