Title: Seat assembly with counter for isolating fracture zones in a well
Inventor: NAEDLER MARK HENRY
IPC: E21B23/00
Filed: 2013-05-07
Abstract: A specially designed rotary indexing system and associated operational methods are incorporated in a downhole control device, representatively a sliding sleeve valve, having an outer tubular member (41) in which an annular plug seat (42) is coaxially disposed. The plug seat (42) is resiliently expandable between a first diameter and a larger second diameter and is illustratively of a circumferentially segmented construction. The rotary indexing system is operative to detect the number of plug members (50) that pass through and diametrically expand the plug seat (42), and responsively preclude passage of further plug members (50) therethrough when such number reaches a predetermined magnitude. Such predetermined magnitude is correlated to the total rotation of an indexing system counter ring portion (55) rotationally driven by axial camming forces transmitted to the rotary indexing system by successive plug member (50) passage-generated diametrical expansions of the plug seat (42).

Patent CA-2881287-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SHENG PINGCHUN
IPC: B29C45/26
Filed: 2013-11-05
Abstract: An encapsulation mold is provided, which may include an upper mold, a lower mold and a clamping device. The clamping device includes a rubber anti-slip block fixed to a joint surface of the upper mold, and a rubber anti-slip block fixed to a joint surface of the lower mold, wherein both of the rubber anti-slip blocks can fix the glass tightly. Therefore, after the upper mold and the lower mold are pressed against each other, these rubber anti-slip blocks may deform and apply a couple of forces having opposite directions to the glass. Under this couple of forces, the glass can be completely fixed in the encapsulation mold, which can avoid glass to be crushed caused by glass moving during injection molding. Meanwhile, because these rubber anti-slip blocks are elastic, they can play an anti-slip role and prop the glass, which may prevent the glass 40 from breakage.

Abstract: A computing method and system is disclosed for analyzing interactions between a user and a customer support agent. Typical interactions include inquiries about a product or service, and a service call. When the user purchases a good or service, or successfully completes a service call, the customer converts, e.g. the sales pitch or service solution was successful. If the customer does not convert, then the interaction between user and agent is analyzed to determine why the user did not convert and whether the user should be categorized for potential retargeting.

Inventor: TURNER DAN
IPC: G07C9/00
Filed: 2014-02-14
Abstract: A customer may collect a package from an automated collection point (ACP) operated by an entity having a central computer system, even when there is no functional communications link between the ACP and the central computer system. A first collection code is generated at the central computer system by means of an algorithm based on a data item particular to the package, such as a package identification code (package ID). The first collection code is sent to the customer who inputs it at the ACP, where it is validated independently using a corresponding algorithm based on a corresponding data item which is independently available to the ACP, preferably the same package ID which is carried by the package and scanned when the package is delivered. The ACP may be a stand-alone unit without a data link, or may be networked but temporarily out of communication with the central computer system. When communication between the ACP and the central computer system is fully functional, the first collection code may be disabled and collection made instead using a random or pseudorandom second collection code sent to the customer from the central computer system and validated at the ACP by means of a corresponding authorisation code.
