Abstract: Systems and processes may provide field-initiated testing and/or control of fluid regulatory systems. In one aspect, a fluid regulatory testing system may include a field test initiator (110, 200, 300, 510) and a fluid regulator control system (120, 520). The field test initiator may alter control signal (150, 210, 310, 535) delivered to the fluid regulator control system upon activation of a user input device (111, 220, 511). The fluid regulator control system may receive control signals from the field test initiator and generate fluid regulator (130, 540) control signals (150, 535). The fluid regulator control system (120, 520) may also detect whether a control signal (530) has been altered, and initiate a fluid regulator testing sequence (685), if the control signal has been altered. The fluid regulator control system (820) may include a latch mode. When a latch mode is commenced, generation of fluid regulator control signals (830) based on received control signals and/or alteration of a position of a fluid regulator (840, 870) may be inhibited.

Title: Anchorage extractor
Inventor: RIVARD GILLES
IPC: E01B29/26
Filed: 2010-06-01
Abstract: The present invention is directed to an anchorage extractor. The extractor is used to remove post, anchorage or stake from the ground without using a force generated by a motor. The anchorage extractor comprises a base disposed on the ground to provide a stable support. A lever is connected to a driving wheel that is connected to a rack. The anchorage is attached to the rack and when the lever is actuated, the drive wheel drives the rack upward, removing the anchorage from the ground. An advantage of the present invention is that the direction of the extraction force is parallel to the anchorage axis by adjusting the angle of the extractor. The extractor may be folded on itself or dismantled to be transported.
