Abstract: A boot comprising a foot mold and a leg portion extending upwardly therefrom includes an extendable sleeve secured about an exterior of the leg portion at a location spaced below the top end of the leg portion. The sleeve is extendable from a stowed position concealed within a pocket on the exterior side of the leg portion to an extended position in which height of the leg portion is considerably extended along the length of the leg of the user. Securement of the sleeve below the top end of the leg portion permits an upper portion of the boot to remain breathable and unaffected by the waterproof material of the extendable sleeve for maximum comfort when the sleeve is not in use. The sleeve and the portion of the boot therebelow are formed of waterproof or at least water- resistant material to form a continuous barrier between the user and the surrounding environment when the sleeve is extended.

Abstract: Des ouvertures sont créées entre un puits et une formation en actionnant un pistolet perforant à proximité d'une zone dans la formation et des fluides de production sont produits avec tout débris issu de la formation. Un tube de production provenant de la formation est pressurisé pour actionner le pistolet perforant et actionner simultanément un orifice d'injection de fond. Presque immédiatement les fluides sont injectés dans le puits de forage à proximité des ouvertures et amenés à la surface pour l'enlèvement des débris et la production de fluides de la formation. Un orifice d'injection optionnel et dans la partie supérieure du puits permet d'ajuster la tête hydrostatique au-dessus du pistolet perforant avec l'enlèvement ou l'ajout de fluide avant de l'actionner. Le tube de production s'étend suffisamment à la surface au-dessus du puits pour permettre l'abaissement de l'orifice d'injection de fond en dessous des ouvertures au cours de la circulation des fluides pour un meilleur enlèvement des débris.

Patent CA-2501728-C (CA)
Inventor: WHEELER ROBERT DON
IPC: B65B23/00
Filed: 2005-03-21
Granted: 2009-02-17
Abstract: The invention is a thermoplastic film having a heat resistant coating. The film is particularly useful in the preparation of bags and associated packaging systems that are used for protecting and packaging articles. Typically, the heat resistant coating has a melting range that is greater than the melting temperature of the thermoplastic film and exceeds the temperature of the heat generated during foam formation. As such, packaging films and bags that are prepared in accordance with the invention help prevent foam-in-bag cushions from fusing together. Particularly useful heat resistant coatings include ink varnishes and resins that are solvent-based, water-based, or energy cured.

Title: System and method for adapting to barrier nuisances and obstructions
Inventor: GREGORI ERIC
IPC: E05F15/00
Filed: 2005-05-26
Granted: 2013-08-20
Abstract: A barrier movement operator moves a barrier between open and closed positions. The operator receives a first request to move the barrier. The actual force required to move the barrier is measured. An obstruction to barrier movement is determined by comparing the measured actual force to a first predetermined force threshold. Responsive to the detection of an obstruction, the direction of travel of the barrier is reversed. The operation of the barrier movement operator is modified, by permitting the use of a higher force threshold in future measurements. A second request to move the barrier is received. The actual force required to move the barrier is measured a second time. An obstruction to barrier movement is detected by comparing the measured actual force with the new, higher force threshold.

Inventor: MAEV ROMAN GR
IPC: B23K11/25
Filed: 2005-09-27
Granted: 2012-12-18
Abstract: A method and apparatus for ultrasonic in-process monitoring and feedback of resistance spot weld quality uses at least one transducer located in the electrode assembly transmitting through a weld tip into an underway weld. Analysis of the spectrum of ultrasonic waves provides the operator with an indication of the size, thickness, location, dynamics of formation and quality of the spot weld. The method presents a fundamentally new physical approach to the characterization of the spot weld quality. Together with transmission mode it includes new modes of operation of ultrasonic probes such as a reflection mode and simultaneous use of transmission and reflection modes, and a new physical interpretation of the signal analysis results.

Granted: 2012-08-07
Abstract: The present invention is directed to methods of integrating carbon nanotubes into epoxy polymer composites via chemical functionalization of carbon nanotubes, and to the carbon nanotube-epoxy polymer composites produced by such methods. Integration is enhanced through improved dispersion and/or covalent bonding with the epoxy matrix during the curing process. In general, such methods involve the attachment of chemical moieties (i.e., functional groups) to the sidewall and/or end-cap of carbon nanotubes such that the chemical moieties react with either the epoxy precursor(s) or the curing agent(s) (or both) during the curing process. Additionally, in some embodiments, these or additional chemical moieties can function to facilitate dispersion of the carbon nanotubes by decreasing the van der Waals attractive forces between the nanotubes.
