Inventor: HALEY RICHARD P
IPC: B05D1/04
Filed: 2000-01-21
Abstract: An atomized fluid, such as a mist of water, is applied to a preheated substrate, such as wood, a wood product, paper, or ceramic just prior to or contemporaneously with electrostatically applying a coating powder to the substrate. The atomized fluid is absorbed or adsorbed by the substrate so as to enhance the charge-carrying capacity of the substrate to an extent necessary to promote efficient electrostatic application of the coating powder to the substrate.

Title: Rapporteur d'angle de fourche pour chariot elevateur
Inventor: DALPHOND PIERRE
IPC: B66F9/075
Filed: 2000-02-29
Abstract: Nom:      Rapporteur d'angle de fourche pour chariot élévateur.      But:      Indiquer en tout temps au conducteur le degré d'inclinaison exacte de ses fourches et automatiquement celle de son mat.        Explication du fonctionnement:      Peut-être positionné à gauche ou à droite du mat à la hauteur des yeux du conducteur, le rapporteur d'angle indique par un système de mesure de degré d'inclinaison à chaque extrémité, donc deux repères, la position exacte de son mat et de ses fourches.        Quand les fourches sont au niveau à l'horizontal, donc le mat est au niveau à la vertical, le point de repère indique le centre de la mesure du degré d'inclinaison, zéro degré. Si on penche les fourches vers l'avant, le point de repère se déplace vers la partie supérieur de la mesure d'inclinaison. Et vice versa, lorsque les fourches penchent vers l'arrière, le point de repère se déplace sur la partie inférieur de la mesure d'inclinaison.

Title: Method for the sampling of biphase coded digital signals
Inventor: PILZ AXEL
IPC: H03M5/12
Filed: 2000-07-13
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the sampling of biphase coded digital signals by reception means which have at least one signal input having switchable signal edge sensitivity or at least two signal inputs having different signal edge sensitivity for the reception of such signals. The signals to be received are sampled precisely once per data bit, namely during the transmission of the first half-bit. The signal edges (Fl-F5) of each bit are utilized for synchronizing the signal input with the control signal and for detecting transmission errors. Each signal sampling (S1-S5) is followed by a time window (At) within which the reception of the signal edge of the present bit is expected and evaluated as permissible. The signal edge sensitivity of the at least one signal input is set as a function of the sampled logic level of the first half-bit of the respectively transmitted bit of the signal.

Title: Stack-sealable, heat-shrinkable multilayer packaging film
Inventor: WOLF JOHN R
IPC: B32B27/08
Filed: 1999-03-04
Abstract: A heat-shrinkable multilayer film comprises (A) a first layer, which is an outer layer, and which comprises polyolefin; (B) a second layer comprising at least one member selected from the group consisting of polyolefin, polystyrene, and polyurethane, wherein the second layer has a thickness of from about 10 to 50 percent, based on a total film thickness; (C) a third layer comprising a polyamide having a melting point of 160 °C and below; and (D) a fourth layer, which is an outer layer, the fourth layer comprising polyester. The first layer preferably serves as a seal layer in a heat-shrinkable bag. The third layer provides enhanced orientability of the tape from which the film is formed, thereby providing improved total free shrink and lower shrink temperature. The third layer also provides greater optical clarity and permits the presence of a thicker polyamide layer, thereby increasing impact strength and improving the O2-barrier of the film. The high melting polyester of the fourth layer permits at least two bags, having product therein, to be stacked on top of one another and sealed simultaneously, without sticking to one another, thereby doubling the output of a vacuum chamber machine. A bag and a process of making a packaged product are also disclosed.

Title: Downhole separation of produced water in hydrocarbon wells, and simultaneous downhole injection of separated water and surface water
Inventor: ZAHACY TODD
IPC: E21B43/12
Filed: 2001-03-05
Abstract: A method and system for the downhole separation and injection of surface water and water contained in a produced mixture from an underground formation of a hydrocarbon well containing hydrocarbon and water. Downhole separation of the produced mixture into a predominately water component and predominately hydrocarbon component is achieved using an oil-water separator. Surface water is delivered to a downhole fluid- driven pump under pressure so as to drive the pump. The downhole-separated predominately water component of the produced mixture is directed to the pump, by way of the pump and combined with surface water to obtain a combined fluid. The combined fluid is directed to a downhole injection formation by way of the pump. Oil is transported to the head of the well either naturally under the eruptive force of the well, or with the assistance of regular artificial lift methods, including gas-lift. This invention allows for injection of surface water and downhole-separated water in the same wellbore while producing oil to surface.

Abstract: Coussin gonflable plié à l'intérieur d'un module housse d'un volant et bordure périphérique d'une ouverture dans le coussin gonflable fixée à un dispositif de retenue supportant un gonfleur. Le coussin gonflable plié est recouvert de l'arrière d'un véhicule à l'avant du véhicule par une feuille de limitation de déploiement disposée le long d'une surface interne du module housse et fixé à une extrémité au dispositif de retenue. La feuille de limitation de déploiement est plus longue qu'une longueur d'une périphérie interne du module housse dans une direction longitudinale de la carrosserie du véhicule. Ainsi, il est possible d'empêcher le coussin gonflable de s'ouvrir vers l'arrière de la carrosserie du véhicule à un stade initial du déploiement par la feuille de limitation de déploiement, évitant ainsi l'interférence prématurée avec un occupant.
