Patent EP-0202013-A2 (EP)
Inventor: PITTARD GERARD T
IPC: E21B47/022
Filed: 1986-04-04
Abstract: A steering and control system is disclosed for percussion boring tools for boring in the earth at an angle or in a generally horizontal direction. The steering mechanism comprises a slanted-face nose member attached to the anvil of the tool to produce la turning force on the tool and movable tail fins in the trailing end of the tool to be selectively positioned relative to the body of the tool to negate the turning force. The fins assume a netural position relative to the housing of the tool when the tool is allowed to turn and to assume a spin inducing position relative to the housing of the tool to cause it to rotate when the tool is to move in a straight direction. The tool optionally has a cylindrical body with overgage sleeves located over a portion of the outer body affixed so that they can rotate but cannot slide axially. The overgage areas at the front and back of the tool, or alternately, an undergage section in the center of the tool body permits a 2-point contact - (front and rear) of the outer housing with the soil wall as opposed to the line contact which occurs without the undercut. The 2-point contact allows the tool to deviate in an arc without distorting the round cross-sectional profile of the pierced hole. Thus, for a given steering force at the front and/or back of the tool, a higher rate of turning is possible since a smaller volume of soil needs to be displaced. A control system guides the tool in a borehole in response to control signals. The control system includes an axial electromagnetic source for generating an axial alternating magnetic field directed along an axial source axis. A sensing assembly remote from the source means includes first and second pickup coils for sensing the aftemating magnetic field. Each of the first and second pickup coils has a respective coil axis and is rigidly mounted in respect to the other with their respective axes at a substantial angle with respect to each other, defining a sensing assembly axis substantially normal to both coil axes. Each coil generates a respective null electrical signal when the lines of magnetic flux at the respective coil are normal to the respective coil axis. Either the source or the sensing assembly is rigidly mounted on the tool, preferably the source. The outputs of the sensing coils are used to determine the direction of lines of magnetic flux at the sensing assembly, and indicate the attitude of the source relative to the sensing assembly.

Abstract: A post dry etching process for restoring wafers damaged by dry etching such as RIE, comprising the steps of removing any dry etch residue layer from the etched portions of the wafer and forming an oxide on those etched portions; rapid thermal annealing the wafer to drive the oxygen from the oxide layer down into the wafer by a small amount, to getter impurities to this oxide layer, and to restore crystallinity below the oxide layer; and removing the oxide layer via an HF bath or a low power dry etch process. This is clearly demonstrated in the attached drawing which is a plot of the delta measurement in the ellipsometry calulcation versus photon energy, where it can be readily seen from curve 100 that the use of the full process sequence of steps including the oxide removal step as the last step in the sequence essentially restores the delta measurement for the RIE-exposed wafers to a close approximation of the delta measurements for the control wafers.

Abstract: Monoclonal antibodies specific for the glycosylated lysine residue at position 525 in glycoalbumin and a method for producing such antibodies. The monoclonal antibodies are useful as reagents in immunoassays for the specific determination of glycoalbumin in human blood samples which is indicative of the severity of the diabetic condition. The monoclonal antibodies are secreted by hybridomas obtained by fusing a myeloma cell with a lymphocyte that has been taken from an animal, usually a mouse, immunized with a peptide immunogen and which produces antibody to the lysine 525 residue in glycoalbumin. The synthetic peptide immunogen comprises a peptide residue which includes an -amino glucosylated lysine and an adjacent amino acid sequence in which at least one of the amino acid units is in a position corresponding to the peptide sequence of human albumin adjacent to lysine 525, the glycosylated peptide residue being linked to an immunogenic carrier.

Abstract: A baffle plate (18) arranged perpendicularly to the injection axis of the plasticising cylinder (28b) can be moved in rear, linear guides of the mould support (10) out of a position of rest, in which the baffle plate is located outside the path of movement of the plasticising cylinder (28b), into a position of impact, in which it intersects the injection axis of the plasticising cylinder. In the case of such a design, the cleaning work necessary on the plasticising cylinder when changing over to a new plastic can be carried out more quickly and cleanly and with less for the operator to do. In addition, extensive automation of the conversion of the injection-moulding operation to the new plastic is possible by breaking down the cleaning process into programable steps which, thanks to the baffle plate (18), resemble the steps of a normal injection-moulding cycle (Fig. 2). <IMAGE>

Abstract: Stalling of liquid ring pumps during start-­up is prevented, without the need for a separate liquid pump or other means for initiating or sustaining the flow of make-up pumping liquid into the pump, by providing a bypass conduit for initially conveying some pumping liquid from the relatively high liquid pressure side of the pump to the rela­tively low liquid pressure side of the pump. This helps the pump establish the internal liquid distribu­tion needed to form a viable liquid ring and create the gas pressure differential necessary to initiate and sustain the inflow of make-up pumping liquid.
