Abstract: A low head water turbine (2) comprising a runner (6) having a cylindrical outer surface (8) extending between opposite ends (10) and a plurality of similar blades (12) having inner (14) and outer (16) sides extending to ends.  The blades are similarly pivotably secured along their inner sides (14) to the outer surface of the runner so as to pivot in the direction of rotation of the runner between closed position lying adjacent the outer surface of the runner and open position at an angle thereto. A housing having (24) end walls (26) and a rounded side wall (28) extending therebetween, completely encases the runner and its blades. The runner is eccentrically mounted to the end walls of the housing for rotation about a horizontal axis (A) so that the cylindrical outer surface of the runner is spaced closer to an upper portion (30) of the housing side wall and farther from a lower portion (32). A water inlet (34) opening is located in a lower, forward portion of the housing, below the axis of rotation of the runner. A water outlet opening (38) is located in a lower, rearward portion of the housing.

Title: Impact dispersal device
Inventor: LOVE PHILLIP W
IPC: F16F9/34
Filed: 2006-04-27
Granted: 2012-10-02
Abstract: An apparatus for impact dispersal of a force applied to a vehicle, which is a motor vehicle or other carrier. In various embodiments, the apparatus includes at least one hydraulic cylinder (112) in fluid communication with a relief valve (302) and a flow restrictor (116) connected in series. The piston rod (106) of each cylinder (112) receives the force of an impact, which causes the fluid in the cylinder (112) to undergo an increase in pressure, which is relieved by multiple relief valves (302) and serially connected flow restrictors (116). In one embodiment, the relief valves (302) and the flow restrictors (116) are incorporated into a single valve (302~). The system responds to an amount of force caused by an impact and disperses the force accordingly at a controlled rate. Applications for such an embodiment include connection to vehicle bumpers (102), to a seat back (504) where the cylinder (112) is double-acting, and to landing feet (612) for air-drop carriers.

Title: Method and composition of preparing polymeric fracturing fluids
Inventor: PARRIS MICHAEL D
IPC: C09K8/68
Filed: 2006-11-16
Granted: 2011-10-04
Abstract: In the presence of certain polyols, a guar gum or similar polysaccharide thickener solution is boron crosslinked before achievement of complete hydration of the thickener, without compromising the viscosity level achieved in a fracturing fluid by the time it is pumped into the wellbore and fractures the subterranean formation adjacent the wellbore. Methods continuously involve hydrating a polysaccharide thickener to an extent of 10% to 75%, but less than full hydration. Before 75% hydration is exceeded, a boron crosslinker is added. Upon addition of the boron crosslinker, the fluid is injected into the wellbore to stimulate hydrocarbon production. Because less time is needed for hydration, well site mixing equipment is down-sized smaller to achieve better efficiency and cost savings.
