Title: Use of dicarbonyl compounds for increasing the thermal stability of biopolymers in the field of oil and gas exploration
Inventor: LANGE PETER
IPC: C09K8/40
Filed: 2007-06-25
Abstract: The invention relates to the use of dicarbonyl compounds to increase the temperature stability of biopolymers in watery, liquid phases during crude oil and natural gas exploration. The biopolymer component should preferably consist of polysaccharides produced by fermentation, such as, e.g., scleroglucane or welan gum. The watery, liquid phase typically constitutes a drilling rinse, which can also contain high salt concentrations ("brines"). Glyoxal is a particularly suitable form of dicarbonyl. Glyoxal can either be added to the liquid phase or, preferably, has already been integrated during the production phase of the biopolymer. The invention is particularly advantageous when used at rock formation temperatures of more than 250° Fahrenheit.

Title: Twisted extruded aluminum baluster, picket or spindle
Inventor: CROFT LEROY E
IPC: B21D11/14
Filed: 2009-04-06
Abstract: The invention provides an improvement in the aluminum baluster, picket or spindle, which can be used internally or externally in a home or commercial building. It is manufactured utilizing a 6000 series square aluminum extrusion. The aluminum extrusion must be thermally and mechanically processed in order to complete the manufacturing cycle. The raw extrusion is cut to length then annealed by an aluminum heat treat process. It is then filled with a medium that will allow it to be twisted without collapsing within itself. The extrusion is plugged at each end and held stationary at one end whilst turned on the other end to produce the twist. The medium is removed and the extrusion is again heat treated to return the mechanical properties to the maximum tensile strength the material is capable of.

Title: Single waistband belt system convertible between a sit harness and quick release utility belt
Inventor: KOPP CHRISTOPHER
IPC: A62B35/00
Filed: 2009-05-26
Abstract: A belt system convertible into and out of a sit harness configuration for selective use as a harness or a utility belt features a pair of leg loops and a waistband equipped with a quick release buckle. Support straps projecting from the leg loops are arranged for releasable engagement to the waistband and releasable engagement to one another so that the releasable engagement to one another when also engaged to the waistband provides a second closure thereof so that the waistband remains closed by the connection between the support straps even if the quick release buckle on the waistband is inadvertently disengaged. Using only a single waistband, the belt system provides a quick release function when used only as a utility belt, yet avoids the hazard of having the waistband open by inadvertent release of the quick release waistband buckle during use as a harness.

IPC: B43M3/04
Filed: 2009-07-16
Abstract: A cross-fold system for use in combination with a device for folding sheet material and includes a rigid guide structure having a stationary reaction surface for supporting and guiding folded sheet material along a feed path between a sheet feed mechanism and a tensioning mechanism. Furthermore, the cross-fold system includes a paper break assembly disposed between the sheet feed mechanism and the tensioning mechanism. The paper break assembly, furthermore, includes an abrasion bar disposed transversely of the feed path and in opposed relation to the rigid guide.  Moreover, the paper break assembly is repositionable from an active position to an inactive position such that, in the active position, the abrasion bar pressingly engages the sheet material against the stationary reaction surface of the guide assembly, and, in the inactive position, the abrasion bar permits the sheet material to pass to the tensioning mechanism without engaging the sheet material. When the paper break assembly is in the active position, the tensioning mechanism is operative to pull the folded sheet material across the abrading bar to yield the adhesive bond between the reinforcing fibers of the sheet material. As such, a subsequent cross-fold of the folded sheet material is facilitated.

Abstract: A method of mining a mineral deposit includes setting a plurality of explosive charges at spaced pre-blast locations in the deposit, wherein at least selected pre-blast locations also carry respective markers that are such that the post-blast location of at least a useful proportion will be detectable after explosion of the charges. After the charges are exploded to fragment the deposit, the post-blast locations of certain of the markers are detected to obtain an indication of the relative positions of selected components of the mineral deposit after the fragmentation of the deposit by the exploding of the charges. Also disclosed is a method utilising a plurality of markers arranged to emit a detectable signal after blast fragmentation, and detecting the post-blast locations by triangulation techniques employing a plurality of receiver detectors. A further aspect proposes the use of secondary explosive charges as post-blast markers.
