Title: A combustion chamber
Inventor: VARNEY BRIAN ANTHONY
IPC: F23M20/00
Filed: 2001-07-30
Abstract: A three stage lean burn combustion chamber (28) comprises a primary combustion zone (36), a secondary combustion zone (40) and a tertiary combustion zone (44). Each of the combustion zones (36,40,44) is supplied with premixed fuel and air by respective fuel and air mixing ducts (76,78,80,92). Secondary fuel injectors (106) and two secondary fuel manifolds (105A, 105B) supply fuel into different circumferential sectors, halves, of the secondary fuel and air mixing duct (80). The secondary fuel manifolds (105A, 105B) have secondary fuel valves (107A,107B) which supply a greater proportion of fuel to the secondary fuel manifold (105A) than the secondary fuel manifold (105B) so that there is circumferential biasing of fuel in the secondary combustion zone (40). This circumferential biasing of fuel in the secondary combustion zone (40) reduces the generation of harmful pressure oscillations in the combustion chamber (28). Alternatively the biasing of the fuel may be in the primary or tertiary combustion zones (36,44).

Title: Double-ended dual-mechanism retractable blade utility knife
Inventor: BEYERS GREGORY L
IPC: B26B5/00
Filed: 1999-01-13
Abstract: A double-ended dual mechanism retractable blade utility knife (10). The knife (10) includes two separately actuable mechanisms (382, 386) which allow extension and retraction of one or both blades (28, 34) independently of one another. The cutting surfaces (30, 31) of the respective blades (28, 34) are oriented towards opposite sides of the knife (10), thereby facilitating rotation of the knife (10) within the user's hand in order to change which blade (28, 34) is currently being used.

Patent CA-2368175-A1 (CA)
Inventor: VON GYNZ-REKOWSKI GUNTHER
IPC: E21B4/02
Filed: 2000-03-16
Abstract: A simple torque-testing tool (A), particularly for downhole progressing-cavi ty motors, easily bolts on to the bearing housing (10) on one end and the bit b ox (12) on the other end. The assembly is first screwed together where a predetermined amount of preload is applied to opposing clutch surfaces. Opposite ends of the housing are affixed to the bearing housing uphole and t he bit box downhole and a predetermined amount of flow is run through the stato r housing. If the downhole motor is close to its design operating parameter fo r a given flow rate, it should be able to drive the bit box despite the drag applied by the opposing clutch surfaces. Failure of the downhole motor to be  able to overcome the resistance from the device at the predetermined flow ra te indicates that the motor is worn. Torque resistance is applied preferably by  stacked Belleville washers (20) which can be stacked in a number of arrangements to alter the amount of force. The applied force from the Belleville washers can be altered by rig personnel when assembling the devic e. The device can be used on a variety of motor types or applications.

Patent CA-2399582-A1 (CA)
Inventor: WENTWORTH GARY
IPC: C08G18/40
Filed: 2001-02-07
Abstract: La présente invention concerne des compositions à partir de polyols à base de polyester non linéaire à faible masse moléculaire, présentant une faible viscosité et une teneur élevée en solides. On obtient de telles compositions en faisant réagir entre eux, d'une part un alcool polyhydrique ramifié portant au moins 3 groupes hydroxyle tel que le triméthylolpropane, d'autre part un glycol ou un diol, et enfin un composé appartenant à un groupe constitué d'un acide dicarboxylique aliphatique ou aromatique, un alkyle-ester en C¿1?-C¿6?, un anhydride, une halogénure diacide, ou certains de leurs mélanges. Ces polyols non linéaires à base de polyester répondent particulièrement bien aux besoins lorsqu'on doit conserver une teneur élevée en solide tout en abaissant la viscosité en cas de mélange avec d'autres résines de revêtement telles que les résines acryliques, ce qui rend les résines de revêtement plus efficaces dans le cas des revêtements durcis, du fait de l'amélioration, non seulement de la flexibilité, mais aussi de la résistance aux chocs et de la dureté, et ce, sans remettre en cause l'esthétique, la résistance au solvant et/ou le vieillissement aux intempéries. L'invention concerne également le procédé d'enduction d'un substrat avec ces compositions de revêtement.
