Patent CA-2565582-A1 (CA)
Title: Threaded connection for oil field applications
Inventor: HUSTON FRED N
IPC: E21B17/042
Filed: 2005-05-03
Abstract: An interconnection for oil field tubular goods operates in a self sealing manner in response to internal pressures which might otherwise cause leakage through couplings or joints. Each coupling sleeve includes an interior fulcrum ring fitted between the nose ends of the tubing or casing, and centrally engaging a fulcrum seating zone centered in the sleeve. Internal pressures tend to bend the ends of the fulcrum ring outwardly toward clearance or relief spans on each side of the fulcrum zone. This deflection increases the contact force and enhances the metal-to-metal seal between the end faces of the fulcrum ring and the pin end faces.

Title: Process for melt dip coating a strip high-tensile steel
Inventor: NOTHACKER GERNOT
IPC: C23C2/06
Filed: 2005-12-02
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for hot dip coating a strip of heavy-duty steel with various alloy constituents comprising zinc and/or aluminium.  According to the invention, the strip is first heated in a continuous furnace in a reductive atmosphere to a temperature of approx. 650 ~C, at which only negligible quantities of the alloy constituents diffuse to the surface of the strip. The surface that predominantly consists of pure iron is converted into an iron oxide layer by an extremely short thermal treatment at a temperature of up to 750 ~C in a reaction chamber that is integrated into the continuous furnace and contains an oxidising atmosphere. Said iron oxide layer prevents the diffusion of the alloy constituents to the surface of the strip during a subsequent annealing treatment at a higher temperature in a reductive atmosphere. The iron oxide layer is converted in the reductive atmosphere into a pure iron layer, to which the zinc and/or aluminium are applied in the molten bath with optimum adhesion.

Title: System and method for optically imaging objects on a detection device by means of a pinhole aperture
Inventor: MACHO HEINZ
IPC: G06V10/145
Filed: 2006-01-19
Abstract: The invention describes systems and methods for optically imaging objects and in particular optical patterns or codes onto a detection device by means of a pinhole aperture. According to the invention these systems have optical attenuation elements between the illumination devices and the object which substantially compensate the system-inherent imaging defects caused by the pinhole aperture and in particular the system-inherent peripheral decrease in brightness of an image of the object formed by a pinhole aperture on the detection device. According to the invention the optical attenuation elements change the illumination intensity of the object in such a manner that the central areas of the object are illuminated at a lower light intensity than its peripheral areas. As a result of the subsequent imaging of the object by means of a pinhole aperture, the central areas of the object are imaged onto the detection device at a higher light intensity than the peripheral areas of the object. The superimposition of the two effects enables the imaging system according to the invention to achieve a substantially uniform system-inherent brightness distribution on the detection device.
