Title: Method for restoring used railroad ties where the old spike hole is filled with a polymeric material
Inventor: STOLARCZYK CRAIG B
IPC: E01B9/12
Filed: 2005-04-15
Abstract: A method for restoring a railroad spike hole located in a used railroad tie is disclosed. The method restores the railroad tie so it can be reused in subsequent rail replacement operations. The restored railroad tie is capable of having a railroad spike penetrate and be retained within the confines of the restored railroad spike hole without substantial bending problems. The method forms in each hole a polymeric plug made of a polymeric material. The polymeric material includes a plurality of flexible, readily deformable micro-inclusions which allow for spike insertion pathways for the railroad spike as it is driven into the polymeric plug. The micro-inclusions facilitate the introduction of the railroad spike into the polymeric plug, the polymeric plug infiltrating and tightly bonding with the railroad spike hole. This additionally prevents moisture infiltration thereby impeding substantial tie rot due to moisture, and to dam the railroad spike hole to enable complete filling thereof. The inclusions may be formed by micro-balloons within the polymeric material.

Title: Flow chamber for online fluorometer
Inventor: TOKHTUEV EUGENE
IPC: G01N35/08
Filed: 2013-03-29
Abstract: A fluorescence analysis system may include a sensor head that has a light source configured to emit light into a flow of fluid, a detector configured to detect fluorescent emissions from the flow of fluid, and a temperature sensor. The system may also include a flow chamber that includes a housing defining a cavity into which the sensor head can be inserted. In some examples, the housing is configured such that, when a flow of fluid enters the housing, the flow of fluid divides into at least a major stream passing adjacent the light source and the detector and a minor stream passing adjacent the temperature sensor. Such a flow chamber may direct fluid past different sensors components while inhibiting a build-up of solids particles, the generation of air locks, or other flow issues attendant with continuous or semi-continuous online operation.

Patent NZ-707527-A (NZ)
Title: Method and apparatus for winding a liner inside a host pipe
Inventor: WEAVER RONALD JOHN
IPC: F16L55/16
Filed: 2013-10-29
Abstract: The invention provides methods and apparatus for producing a spirally wound pipe or pipe liner, and also to a web for forming a spirally wound pipe or pipe liner. One aspect of the invention provides a method and an associated machine of winding a helically wound pipe from a web (200) having transversely spaced apart connecting formations (310, 320) adapted to interlock when the web is wound in a helical path and adjacent edge portions (300a, 300b) of the web overlap one another, wherein an exterior support means (400) for the connecting formation at the terminus of the pipe being helically wound from the web is provided, and a radially outwardly directed force is applied against an inner face (220) of the web and the support means (400) to pinch connecting formations into interlocking engagement. A further aspect of the invention provides an elongated web (200) for use in the above method or machine comprising a wall portion (210) bound by edge portions (300a, 300b) and adapted to form a pipe by spirally winding said web and joining adjacent said edge portions, wherein a distal end of joined edge portions (330) of the web projecting from the wall portion (210) of the web is less than a spacing distance defined by a spacer rib (350) projecting from the wall portion, when the web is spirally wound and adjacent edge portions are joined together. The invention enables the formation of a pipe or pipe liner by the application of an compressive force while allowing the pipe or pipe liner to be formed in intimate contact with a host pipe. Additionally, the invention allows a pipe or pipe liner to be wound without the need to have a relatively stiff/rigid web.
