Abstract: Méthode de détermination du parcours de descente d'un outil sur un câble et placé dans un puits d'un champ pétrolifère. La méthode consiste à déplacer un treuil sur une surface du champ pétrolifère pour faire bouger l'outil sous la surface dans le puits. Le treuil peut ensuite être arrêté, l'outil se trouvant toujours dans le puits, mais il arrive souvent que l'outil continue de se déplacer, ou de « cheminer » pendant quelque temps après l'arrêt du treuil. Après l'arrêt, des données indiquant un mouvement de l'outil peuvent être enregistrées. Ces données peuvent alors servir à déterminer la longueur du parcours de descente.

Abstract: A pressurized fluid flow system for a reverse circulation down-the-hole hammer comprising a cylinder (40) coaxially disposed in between the outer casing (1) and the piston (60); and two chambers (2, 3) defined by respective recesses on the inner surface of the outer casing (1) and separated by a dividing wall (5). During the operation of the hammer, the first chamber (2) is permanently connected to the source of pressurized fluid for supplying said fluid to a front chamber (240) and to a rear chamber (230) formed inside the hammer and located at opposite ends of the piston (60) for enabling it to reciprocate due to the changes in pressure of the pressurized fluid contained therein; and the second chamber (3) is permanently communicated with the bottom of the hole for discharging the pressurized fluid from said chambers (240, 230); wherein the flow into and out of said chambers (240, 230) is controlled solely by the overlap or relative position of the piston (60) and the cylinder (40). In a second embodiment of the invention the control of the flow of the pressurized fluid into the chambers (240, 230) is achieved by the overlap of the sampling tube (130) extending along the center of the hammer, with the inner sliding surfaces (69) of the piston (60); while the flow of the pressurized fluid out of the chambers (240, 230) is controlled by the overlap of the piston (60) and the cylinder (40). An internal chamber (74) is provided in between the piston (60) and the sampling tube (130) for a more efficient filling of the chambers (240, 230), said internal chamber (74) being defined by a recess of said surfaces (69) of the piston (60) and being permanently connected the supply chamber (2).

Title: Communication system
Inventor: OSHIMA MITSUAKI
IPC: H04N19/89
Filed: 1994-03-25
Granted: 2009-09-15
Abstract: At the transmitter side, carrier waves are modulated according to an input signal for producing relevant signal points in a signal space diagram. The input signal is divided into, two, first and second, data streams. The signal points are divided into signal point groups to which data of the first data stream are assigned. Also, data of the second data stream are assigned to the signal points of each signal point group. A difference in the transmission error rate between first and second data streams is developed by shifting the signal points to other positions in the space diagram expressed at least in the polar coordinate system. At the receiver side, the first and/or second data streams can be reconstructed from a received signal. In TV broadcast service, a TV signal is divided by a transmitter into, low and high, frequency band components which are designated as a first and a second data streams respectively. Upon receiving the TV signal, a receiver can reproduce only the low frequency band component or both the low and high frequency band components, depending on its capability. Furthermore, a communication system based on an OFDM system is utilized for data transmission of a plurality of subchannels, wherein the subchannels are differentiated by changing the length of a guard time slot or a carrier wave interval of a symbol transmission time slot, or changing the transmission electric power of the carrier.

Title: Fluid intake and exhaust fittings for a compressor or pump
Inventor: LEU SHAWN ALAN
IPC: F04B39/12
Filed: 2007-09-05
Granted: 2014-10-28
Abstract: We provide a compressor or vacuum pump fluid intake manifold having a fluid intake and a pair of ports provided by male and female fittings that are slidably engaged to one another. The male fitting has a portion which forms a hollow plug which fits within a respective fluid intake of the compressor housing. The plug portion, or plug, is integrally molded with a longitudinal section of the male fitting member. In similar fashion, the female fitting includes a plug portion which interfaces with a fluid intake in the compressor housing. The plug portion is integrally molded with a longitudinal portion of the female fitting. In one embodiment, each of the plugs includes three extending flanges forming an integral portion of the plug. Two of the three flanges are furtherest away from the plug. These two flanges provide a contact pressure seal with portions of the compressor housing that define the fluid intakes which receive the plugs. The other plug serves to prevent the plugs from slipping out of the fluid intakes during normal use of the fluid intake manifold. Further, instead, each of the plugs can have a raised insert surface defining a groove with an O-ring and a flange integral with and extending from a surface of the plug. The O-ring provides a contact pressure seal with portions of the housing defining the compressor intake. The radially extending flange serves to inhibit the removal of the plug from the compressor intakes during normal use of the fluid manifold.
