Title: Portable office having a removable computer workstation and shock isolation means therefor
Inventor: STEPHEN HARVEY
IPC: H05K5/00
Filed: 2001-05-07
Abstract: A portable office (1) having a shock resistant case (2) within which to carr y a computer workstation that includes a personal computer (18) and one or mor e computer peripherals (20, 24, 25, 26, 28). In the packaged configuration, th e computer workstation is detachably connected to a flat table surface (34) th at extends across the carrying case (2). In a detached configuration, the computer workstation is lifted off the table surface (34) and separated from the carrying case (2) to be transported to a remote worksite outside the confines to the carrying case. A shock isolation system (58, 72) suspends th e computer workstation above the carrying case (2) and absorbs potentially damaging impact forces and vibrations that are created when the carrying cas e (2) is subjected to physical forces during transit. The shock isolation syst em (58, 72) also permits the computer workstation to be operated from a moving motor vehicle.

Abstract: A bulk box transport container is able to be transported by ship, train and truck. Because of the design of the bulk box transport container, mined material can be transported in one container from its source to a processing facility. The transport container is constructed to be loaded, unloaded and transported while resting on a side, top, bottom or ends, and multiple transport containers can be stacked on one another without causing deformation of the underlying transport containers. Preferably, the transport container has enclosed sides, top and bottom and is provided with end doors hinged so that each end door swings out along one edge surface of the container. Most preferably, the doors are provided to each swing parallel to a respective edge along the top surface of the transport container so as to pivot about an axis parallel with the top edge of the end of the transport container. According to this design, tipping the transport container towards either end will cause the lower end door to swing out, opening towards the top of the transport container and allowing the contents to fall out.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for plugging a wellbore (10) in a trip saving manner includes a cement retainer (30) disposed on a run-in string (40) and a radially expanded perforating assembly disposed below the cement retainer. In a single run, the apparatus provides for perforating a wellbore and squeezing cement (8) through the perforations and into the formation (7) therearound.  After the cement retainer is set, a firing head is actuated to cause the perforating gun to discharge. After perforations are formed, cement is introduced from the cement retainer into the isolated area and squeezed through the perforations. Thereafter, the run-in string disengages from the cement retainer leaving behind the plug formed. In yet another aspect, a firing head (70) capable of being actuated by different means is used to discharge the perforating assembly.
