Title: A circulating sub apparatus and method
Inventor: HILLIARD PAUL
IPC: E21B21/10

Granted: 2010-03-02
Abstract: A circulating sub apparatus and method is described. The apparatus has an outer body member and an inner body member each having one or more holes, and a displacement mechanism for producing relative movement between the outer body member and the inner body member. The inner body member and the outer body member may be moved between a first configuration, in which the one or more holes on the inner body member are substantially in fluid communication with the one or more holes on the outer body member, and a second configuration, in which fluid communication between the one or more holes on the inner body member and those on the outer body member is substantially prevented. The apparatus is arranged such that when the inner and outer body members are in the first configuration, fluid need not flow through the displacement mechanism. A restraint device for restraining movement of the inner body member with respect to the outer body member is also described, wherein the restraint device is disposed within a chamber which is isolated from fluid located outwith the chamber.

Abstract: 17 A plurality of closing cylinder devices are provided between a bolster of a press machine and a bed containing a lower mold of a hydroforming device. An upper mold is attached to a slide of the press machine. The upper mold and lower mold come together to form a cavity having the shape of the exterior of the desired molded product. A closing block, being movable between a first position which is between the slide and a crown of the press machine, and a second position, which avoids the slide, permitting free movement of the slide from the crown to the lower mold. When a material to be hydroformed is place in the lower mold, the upper mold is lowered. The closing block is fit into its first position, thereby restricting movement of the slide in the vertical direction. A inner work pressure is provided by a fluid inside the material to be molded. The closing cylinder devices provide a pressure, based upon the inner work pressure, to maintain the cavity at the desired shape, preventing the upper mold and the lower mold from being separated by the inner work pressure.

Abstract: A suspension system supports an implement on a work vehicle and includes a linkage mechanism providing pivotal connection between the work vehicle and the implement and adapted to pivot in such manner as to permit relative upward and downward movement between the vehicle and the implement while maintaining a controlled or selected orientation between them. A hydraulic actuator capable of extending and retracting is operatively connected between the work vehicle and the implement so as to effect the pivotal motion of said linkage and relative motion between the vehicle and implement. A shock absorber is interposed between the hydraulic actuator and one of the work vehicle and the implement for absorbing shock loadings tending to pass between the vehicle and the implement via said hydraulic actuator when in use. The shock absorber includes an elongated link mounted for pivotal motion at a point between opposing ends thereof. One end portion of the elongated link is connected to an end of the actuator and the other end of the link is in a load transmitting relation to a resilient cushion whereby forces exerted by or on said actuator tend to effect pivotal motion of the elongated link and are transformed into compression forces on the resilient cushion.

Patent CA-2352003-C (CA)

Abstract: A method and apparatus for generating a video image which produces a superior image of a subjects facial features for the purpose of physical identification of a subject involved in a crime. A camera is mounted adjacent to an egress from the premises, directed toward the interior of the premises at approximately the height of a subjects face, provides a clear image of a suspect leaving the premises because the camera is oriented generally horizontally and thus gathers a close-up image of the subject taken from directly in front of the subjects face, and because the sunlight streaming in through the doorway properly lights the subjects face for a video or photographic image. The positioning and angle of the camera makes it more difficult for a suspect to obscure his or her facial features from the camera. In the preferred embodiment the camera is concealed within a height measuring scale, which renders the subject less likely to be aware of the presence of the camera and provides the advantage that employed personnel can use the measuring scale to make an accurate determination of the subjects height as the subject is leaving the premises, to thereby enhance the ability to subsequently identify the suspect.

Title: Binder resin and synergist composition including a parting agent and process of making lignocellulosic articles
Inventor: MENTE DONALD C
IPC: B27N3/00
Filed: 2001-11-23
Granted: 2010-08-10
Abstract: A method for preparing compression molded or pressed lignocellulosic articles is disclosed. The method involves forming a binder resin by combining a polyisocyanate component with a parting agent and preferably a synergist. The parting agent is the reaction product of an isocyanate compound and an isocyanate-reactive compound of the general structure R-(ao)n-Y where: R is a hydrophobic group containing alkyl, alkaryl, polyaryl, or siloxane moieties; (ao) is an alkylene oxide or mixture of alkylene oxides; n is from 1 to 25; and Y represents a monofunctional isocyanate-reactive group. A resinated lignocellulosic mixture is formed by combining the binder resin with lignocellulosic particles. Then a compression molded or pressed lignocellulosic article is formed by compressing the resinated lignocellulosic mixture at an elevated temperature and under pressure. It is particularly preferred that the binder resin further include a synergist of either a C1-4 N-alkylpyrrolidone, gamma-butyrolactone, or a mixtures of them. The most preferred synergist is N-methyl-2-pyrrolidine.

Title: Improved pulsed operation method for a silent discharge lamp
Inventor: VOLLKOMMER FRANK
IPC: H05B41/28
Filed: 2001-01-09
Granted: 2010-11-30
Abstract: The invention improves an operating method, already described in the prior application 198 39 329.6, for a silent discharge lamp L, in which, using the forward transformer principle, a voltage pulse effecting a forward ignition is impressed from a primary circuit P via a transformer T into a secondary circuit S containing the silent discharge lamp L, and the secondary circuit S thereafter executes a half wave which, as a consequence of the polarization, leads to a back ignition in the discharge lamp L. The improvement consists essentially in that an inductance of the transformer T which governs a transformer current is temporally varied.

Abstract: A method and system that detects protocol and configuration messages in a PPP  packet without having to unframe the entire packet. The method includes a communication device (MT2) that receives a plurality data frames (S306), wherein the communication device is capable of ascertaining the beginning of an information portion (S305) within the received frames. The communications device detects whether the information portion contains configuration information, such as protocol and configuration messages of a predetermined type. In a first embodiment, the detection is achieved by the communication device unescaping (S315) the contents of a plurality of bytes and determining (S325, S330, S335) whether the escaped bytes contains the desired configuration information. In a second embodiment, the communication device determines whether the contents of a particular byte contain the desired configuration information, in escaped or unescaped form, and the communication device continues to sequentially process the bytes within the information portion until the bytes typically containing the desired configuration information are processed.
