Patent CA-2506835-A1 (CA)
Inventor: WANG CANYUN
IPC: G06F19/00
Filed: 2005-05-09
Abstract: Methods and related apparatus for generating dispersion curves and conducting shear slowness logging are set forth.      The methods include backpropagating detected dispersive waveforms in the Fourier domain while accounting for dispersion in an anisotropic and inhomogeneous formation, and stacking the processed waveforms. The stacking may occur in the frequency or time domains. The semblance of the stacked and windowed waveforms is compared against the detected waveforms. In accounting for dispersion during backpropagation, a plurality of parameters which describe dispersion curves are varied over ranges in order to optimize semblance. At each depth of interest, it is then possible to obtain a dispersion curve of greatest semblance. Where both an x-dipole and y-dipole are used to generate the waves, a dispersion curve of greatest semblance for each may be generated. In addition, from the dispersion curves, formation shear slowness(es) may be plotted as a function of formation depth and orientation.

Title: Crop harvesting header with drive reversal
Inventor: MACGREGOR DON
IPC: A01D69/03
Filed: 2005-10-25
Abstract: A crop harvesting machine including a header mounted on a tractor is hydraulically driven by a pair of pumps on the tractor and a series of motors on the header. A first circuit control includes variable rate valves controlling the rate of supply of fluid from the unidirectional pumps to the motors to vary rate of the knife, conditioner, reel and converging systems in a forward harvesting direction. A  second circuit controls reverse rotation of at least some of the elements for releasing a blockage by taking the fluid from one of the pumps and passing it through the separate second circuit to the required motors in series. The second circuit is provided in a separate block which can be omitted and thus constitutes an option.  The drive of the motors in reverse direction in series ensures that they are driven at common speed without need fro individual speed control. The use of unidirectional pumps and the separate circuits for forward and reverse allows the use of a single return and a filter at the return which is advantageous in a system which allows disconnection of couplings to allow the header to be replaced.
