Title: Ultrasound testing
Inventor: SKOGLUND ESKIL
IPC: G01N29/50
Filed: 2014-07-31
Abstract: Structural features (107, 108, Fig 1) below the surface of an object are imaged using ultrasound pulses sent and then received from reflections. One or more signals received are processed to recognise a reflection caused by a first structural feature (107, Fig 1) and a reflection caused by another structural feature (108, Fig 1) at least partly behind the first feature, deeper in the object. Each reflection is associated with a relative depth at which the reflection occurred. An image (505, Fig 5a) is generated from the recognised reflections that represents the structural features and their relative depths. A user adjustable time gate may be applied to the received signal, and the receiver unit may be configured to receive multiple reflections of a single transmitted pulse while in a stationary position. The transmitted pulse may have a particular shape suitable for transmission in the object, and a match filter may be used to recognise it. A handheld device (801, Fig 8) may have a matrix array of transducers and use a dry coupling medium.

Title: Elevating decks for vehicles
Inventor: JACKSON PETER MAITLAND
IPC: B60P1/44
Filed: 2014-09-18
Abstract: An elevating deck provides an additional storage surface in the interior of a vehicle.Â  The movable deck 24 is supported between a pair of struts 14, each of which is connected through a parallelogram linkage 20, 22 to a respective upright post 4, whereby the platform 24 is kept horizontal as it moves with the linkage.

Title: Liner hanger/packer apparatus with pressure balance feature on anchor slips to facilitate removal
Inventor: TOM ANDY
IPC: E21B43/10
Filed: 2013-12-13
Abstract: A liner hanger/packer apparatus operates by sequential expansion of a slip ring and then a sealing element. The hanger slips are set by pressure on a seated ball actuating anchor slips to grip followed by a stroker assembly and a swage making a first movement. The ball seat is defeated and the liner is cemented. A pickup force extends landing dogs so that a subsequent set down force releases a flapper to close and closes off fluid ports associated with the anchor slips so that pressure on the closed flapper sets the anchor and strokes the swage a second stroke to set the sealing element. A rupture disc breaks in the flapper after further relative movement of mandrel components to open the fluid displacement ports so that the anchor is in pressure balance to backpressure developed from fluid moving through the now broken disc as the running tool is removed.
