Abstract: A resorcinol-modified phenolic resin composition is formed by reacting a basic catalyst, formaldehyde, water and a benzene-ol to form an intermediate composition to which resorcinol is subsequently added to reduce the presence of free formaldehyde.  Optionally, an alkanolamine can be combined and reacted with the resorcinol-modified phenolic resin composition to form a resorcinol-alkanolamine-modified phenolic resin composition. The resorcinol-modified phenolic resin and the resorcinol-alkanolamine-modified phenolic resin compositions can be employed to coat abrasive products having a relatively low free formaldehyde content.

Patent CA-2709759-A1 (CA)
Title: Removable hydraulic-set packer
Inventor: BIRNER WOLFGANG
IPC: E21B33/12
Filed: 2010-07-14
Abstract: A removable hydraulic set packer has a piston activated by fluid in the bore of the packer's mandrel. The piston disengages from the mandrel and pushes a lower wedge unit towards an upper wedge unit. The wedge units push a slip outward from the mandrel toward the surrounding casing. The packer uses a delay between the setting of the slip and the compression of a packing element. In this way, the piston's movement does not compress the packing element until the slip has been able to fully engage the casing. Once the slip is set, the piston assembly can then move a lower gage ring and compresses the packing element against a fixed gage ring fixed. The delay can use a temporary connection between the piston and the lower wedge unit and can use a shoulder distanced from the lower gage ring. Alternatively, a secondary piston with dogs can provide the delay.

Abstract: The present invention relates to annotating images. In an embodiment, the present invention enables users to create annotations corresponding to three-dimensional objects while viewing two-dimensional images. In one embodiment, this is achieved by projecting a selecting object onto a three-dimensional model created from a plurality of two-dimensional images. The selecting object is input by a user while viewing a first image corresponding to a portion of the three-dimensional model. A location corre-sponding to the projection on the three-dimensional model is determined, and content entered by the user while viewing the first image is associated with the location. The content is stored together with the location information to form an annotation. The anno-tation can be retrieved and displayed together with other images corresponding to the location.

Abstract: A method of forming a reconstituted wood block can include providing a recovered wood having a high aspect ratio along wood grains of the recovered wood. The recovered wood can be radially crushed or obtained as strips of recovered veneer.  The recovered wood can be pretreated to increase resin absorption to form a degreased wood. The degreased wood can then be dried sufficient to reduce a moisture content to produce a dried wood. The dried wood can be soaked in a resin solution to form a resin impregnated wood. The resin impregnated wood can be dried to reduce the moisture content without substantially curing the resin to form a dried resin impregnated wood. The dried resin impregnated wood can then be molded having wood fibers oriented in a non-random predetermined pattern substantially common direction and compacted to form an uncured molded wood.  The pattern can be oriented along a substantially common direction or portions may be oriented transverse to others to obtain a knotted appearance. The uncured molded wood can then be cured to form the reconstituted wood block.

Filed: 2001-12-14
Abstract: A data Interface for transferring digital data between a host and a client over a communication path using packet structures linked together to form a communication protocol for communicating a pre-selected set of digital control and presentation data.  The signal protocol is used by link controllers configured to generate, transmit, and receive packets forming the communications protocol, and to form digital data into one or more types of data packets, with at least one residing in the host device and being coupled to the client through the communications path. The interface provides a cost-effective, low power, bi-directional, high-speed data transfer mechanism over a short-range 'serial' type data link, which lends itself to implementation with miniature connectors and thin flexible cables which are especially useful in connecting display elements such as wearable micro-displays to portable computers and wireless communication devices.
