Abstract: A linear motion brake (10) includes a channel shaped shoe guide (90) straddling a linear race (20) and having shoe bores (95) defined in leg plates (92) for receiving brake shoes (12). A piston (100) is reciprocally received in a piston cavity (86) of a plate-shaped housing (80) secured to the shoe guide (90). The piston (100) includes first and second protrusions (76, 134) extending from the piston head (102) in the reciprocation direction. Springs (114) are sandwiched between the shoe guide (90) and the piston (100). Ribs (116) of the piston (100) are slideably received in cutouts (96) formed in the connecting plate (94) of the shoe guide (92). Reciprocation of the protrusions (76, 134) cams the brake shoes (12) against the linear race (20).

Abstract: A combustion air supply apparatus 9 of alternating heat exchange type supplies combustion air and discharges combustion exhaust gas at a flow velocity of 80 to 200 m/sec.  A burner assembly 4 is configured in such a manner that low-caloric fuel gas is pre-heated with heat of pre-combusting high-caloric fuel gas before the low-caloric fuel gas reaches a mixing starting space CA  in the combustion chamber where the pre-combusting high-caloric fuel gas and the low-caloric fuel gas come to burn together in a full scale in the mixing starting space CA. When an air amount of the combustion air supplied through the high-temperature air supply ports of the plurality of fuel gas combustion apparatuses is defined as Q1 and an air amount of the pre-combustion air to be mixed with the high-caloric fuel gas, supplied from the fuel gas combustion apparatuses, is defined as Q2, a total air amount (Q1+Q2) is 1.02 to 1.10 times more than a theoretical air amount QS required for combustion, and a ratio of Q2/(Q1+Q2) is 0.011 to 0.047.

Abstract: A telecommunications satellite having a phased array antenna, wherein the beam-forming function within the phased array is simplified by partitioning it into two stages, in which the sub-array stage relates to a fixed, or infrequently changed,set of overlapping sub-arrays and the main stage provides the main pattern reconfiguration, typically in the form of multiple reconfigurable spot beams within a defined coverage region. The key advantage lies in the significant reduction in number of second stage beam--forming control points (at which independent amplitude and phase is applied) when compared with a conventional phased array (where amplitude and phase control is applied for each element of the array). The sub-array stage beam-forming may be implemented in analogue technology. The main beam-former may be implemented in digital technology, where the key processing functions of A/D or D/A conversion, frequency (de)multiplexing and digital beam-forming all scale with the number of control points.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un appareil destiné à estimer l'emplacement d'un trépan souterrain. L'appareil comprend un générateur de sons acoustiques actionné par la boue de forage qui alimente le trépan. Le générateur de sons émet une chaîne d'impulsions caractéristique qui peut être qualifiée de signature ou de clé. La clé se répète toujours. Des moniteurs (en fait des capteurs) situés en surface écoutent cette clé. La clé est distordue par la vitesse angulaire irrégulière du trépan. De ce fait, les données ne correspondent pas précisément à la clé. Sur la base d'algorithmes numériques, un signal ou une clé de référence numérique corrigée sont identifiés afin de cartographier la clé de référence corrigée avec les données observées qui correspondent le mieux. Les facteurs correctifs sont ensuite appliqués pour cartographier la clé de référence corrigée aux autres données recueillies sur d'autres capteurs appartenant à un ensemble de capteurs montés en surface. En déterminant le déphasage et le temps de trajet des signaux au niveau des différents capteurs, et après avoir déterminé la vitesse de la propagation de l'onde dans le milieu géologique, on peut obtenir la position du trépan ou, tout au moins, une approximation assez proche. Les facteurs correctifs appliqués à la clé de référence peuvent également permettre de déterminer la vitesse de rotation instantanée du trépan.

Abstract: There is provided a frac adapter configured to couple a frac tree to a wellhead component. The frac adapter may couple the frac tree to a casing head without a tubing head, thereby enabling the well to be fractured before the tubing head is installed. As a result, the tubing head used in well production may be pressure-rated for production pressures rather than for fracing pressures. The frac adapter may be coupled to or integral with the frac tree. In addition, a union-nut coupling may be employed to quickly and easily assemble and disassemble the frac adapter from the wellhead component, such as the casing head. The union-nut coupling may further enable the components to be pressure-tested before the fracturing process is initiated.
