Patent EP-2591836-A2 (EP)
Inventor: NELSON DAVID C
IPC: A63H27/10
Filed: 2012-11-06
Abstract: A balloon inflator includes a tank containing a volume of pressurized gas and a regulator assembly removably secured to the tank for reducing the pressure of gas exiting the tank, the regulator assembly including a pressure regulator. A nozzle assembly is also provided and includes a valve for controlling dispensing of the pressurized gas. A flexible hose extends between the regulator assembly and the nozzle assembly, the hose being in fluid communication with the pressure regulator and the valve. The balloon inflator is small and lightweight, and therefore portable and concealable. The flexible nature of the hose allows for easy manipulation of the nozzle assembly, making use of the balloon inflator easier for performers.
Patent EP-2663727-A2 (EP)
Inventor: KIRK ANDREW
IPC: E21B17/10
Filed: 2012-01-13
Abstract: A centraliser is disclosed for an oil, gas or water well, the centraliser having a body, and the body having a bore with an axis, the bore being configured to receive a tubular to be centraliser, the body having at least one resilient device configured to extend radially from the axis of the bore, wherein the body has at least one collar member extending radially inwards from the centraliser body adjacent to an end of the body. The collar can be formed separately from the body and attached subsequently, so that the body and the resilient device can optionally be formed in a single stamping or forming step from a single sheet of resilient material. The collars (typically at each end) are typically fixed co-axially in the bore so as to be resistant to axial movement of the collar member within the bore relative to the body of the centraliser, and can be retained in the body by radially extending a lip formed by forcing material at the ends of the body radially inwards into the bore to retain the collar. The body is typically adapted to receive within the bore at least one anchoring device for connection to the tubular, and the anchoring device is configured to engage the collar member within the bore of the body so that relative movement of the centraliser and the tubular is restricted once the anchoring device is fixed to the tubular and the anchoring device engages the collar member. A method of centralising a tubular in a borehole for an oil, gas or water well, and a method of making a centraliser for centralising a tubular in an oil, gas or water well are also disclosed.

Abstract: This invention relates to a method for production modified polyvinyl alcohol and to a water vapor- and smoke-permeable synthetic food casing, with improved optical properties, containing such modified polyvinyl alcohol. Polyvinyl alcohol powder with the degree of hydrolysis of 70-98 mole % and 3-30 cPs viscosity of 4% aqueous solution is loaded while stirring into a mixer for dry and highly viscous materials and 0.05-3.0% of concentrated aqueous solution of sodium peroxide and/or potassium peroxide and/or calcium peroxide and/or hydrogen peroxide in neat hydrogen peroxide equivalent are added. The dry by touch reaction mixture is stirred at 45-100°C until virtually complete consumption of the peroxide compound and formation of modified polyvinyl alcohol powder. This polyvinyl alcohol can be converted to a form convenient for extrusion, by addition of virtually non-volatile plasticizers and subsequent molding operations. Another object of the present invention is a single- or multilayer water vapor- and smoke- permeable synthetic sausage casing with improved optical properties, comprising in at least one of its layers such modified PVA and polyamide material. The layer comprising such modified PVA is extruded from a blend containing from 10 to 95.5% of polyamide material, and from 4.5 to 50% of modified PVA obtained in one or another form according to the present invention, and also from 0 to 40% of additives.

Abstract: A ternary near eutectic alloy of Ni, Ti, Cr is described having a relatively low melting temperature of approximately 1230 deg. C or less, suitable for fusing cracks in turbine blades and vanes without substantial risk of cracking during the repair process. Such an alloy is suitable for low temperature joining or repair of turbine blades since it contains the same components as typical turbine blades and vanes without foreign elements to lower the melting point of the repaired material or adversely affect the mechanical properties of the repaired component. Exclusion of boron eliminates the formation of brittle boron compounds, detrimental to the properties of the repair or seam

Abstract: In a heterogeneous network with a shared cell-ID, the current power control mechanism only configures common power control parameters for all UE in a macro cell, and this doesn't match the receiving power of a wireless access point associated actually, and may lead to serious interferences. The invention provides a method used for uplink power control in a UE of a heterogeneous network with a shared cell-ID, wherein, a wireless access point informs the UE of power control parameters which is related to an associated wireless access point of the UE in the heterogeneous networks, the UE determines a uplink power according to the power control parameters, and transmits uplink data based on the determined uplink power. The invention may configure uplink power for the UEs associated to different wireless access points in a heterogeneous network with a shared cell-ID, to make them have the power control parameters matching with their wireless access points. Thus it's allowed that a performance equivalence between different tiers of networks in a heterogeneous network.

Abstract: Various implementations provide techniques to prevent excessive parallax, depth, or disparity from being passed through to a viewer. In one particular implementation, it is determined that a depth indicator for an object in a stereoscopic image pair of a video sequence is outside of a target range. One or more images of the stereoscopic image pair is modified so that the depth indicator for the object is within the target range. In other implementations, a depth transition between the object and another portion of the video sequence is smoothed. In further implementations, the stereoscopic image pair is replaced with a 2D image pair that includes the object. In yet further implementations, a resulting video sequence includes (i) one or more stereoscopic image pairs having non-zero disparity and for which the depth indicator is within the target range for the entire image pair, and (ii) one or more 2D image pairs.
