Abstract: A method for evaluating sedimentary basins for hydrocarbon potential using aqueous fluid inclusions. Aqueous fluid inclusions are identified in a rock sample. The homogenization temperatures of the fluid inclusions are determined, the optical spectra of the water and methane in the fluid inclusions are measured, and the formation pressures are estimated from the relationship of homogenization temperature and optical spectrum to formation pressure. Formation pressure of the fluid inclusions can be combined with history of the fluid inclusion formation to reconstruct the paleo-history of the basin to evaluate hydrocarbon potential.

Abstract: A hydraulic accumulator, especially a bladder accumulator, includes an accumulator housing (10), and a separation element disposed in and separating the accumulator housing interior into a gas chamber (16) adjoining an inlet (14) on the gas side from a fluid chamber (18) adjoining an inlet (20) on the fluid side. The inlet on the fluid side has a fluid connecting neck (22) having a valve support (40) disposed in the neck. The valve support has fluid openings (42), and a disk-shaped valve body (32) that tapers towards the valve shaft (46) on its side facing the valve support (40). The valve shaft can be pretensioned via a force accumulator (62) into the open position releasing the fluid opening, can be displaced into its closed position by a displacement of the separation element (12), and projects into the fluid chamber (18) in the open position. The valve body (32) is an integral, especially one-piece, component of the valve support (40) that is guided along its outer periphery (56) within the connecting neck (22) so as to be displaceable in it, creating a hydraulic accumulator that is comparatively simple and inexpensive in production.

Abstract: Polyurethane foams are made using a prepolymer that is the reaction product of an organic polyisocyanate, a hydroxy-functional acrylate or methacrylate, and a polyol. This prepolymer is reacted at specified volume ratios and isocyanate indices with a polyol component that includes at least one polyol. The foam is made in the presence of a blowing agent and catalyst. Preferred blowing agents are water and chemical blowing agents that generate carbon dioxide in the reaction. Preferred catalysts have primary or secondary amine groups that allow them to react into the resulting polymer structure, thus decreasing the level of volatile components.

Abstract: L'invention concerne une agrafeuse chirurgicale destinée à effectuer des anastomoses circulaires. L'agrafeuse chirurgicale comprend une partie utilisée comme poignée, une partie formant un corps allongé et une portion de tête présentant un ensemble à enclume et un ensemble à enveloppe. La poignée comprend un bouton d'approche rotatif destiné à rapprocher les ensembles à enclume et à enveloppe, ainsi qu'une gâchette de mise à feu, servant à l'actionnement d'un mécanisme de mise à feu provoquant l'éjection d'agrafes positionnées dans l'ensemble à enveloppe. La gâchette de mise à feu forme un élément de liaison d'une tringlerie double tige prévue pour actionner le mécanisme de mise à feu. L'ensemble à enclume comprend une enclume culbutable qui bascule automatiquement après mise à feu du dispositif et non rapprochement des ensembles à enclume et à enveloppe. La portion de tête comprend également un ensemble à trocart rétractable, positionné coulissant dans un élément de retenue de l'enclume et qui est avancé et rétracté automatiquement par attachement et détachement de l'ensemble à enclume sur l'élément de retenue de l'enclume. Il est prévu un tube de verrouillage, positionné autour de l'élément de retenue de l'enclume, de manière à permettre l'engagement amovible d'un ensemble à enclume. Le tube de verrouillage empêche l'ensemble à enclume de se détacher par inadvertance de l'élément de retenue de l'enclume. L'agrafeuse chirurgicale comprend également un ensemble de verrouillage de mise à feu qui empêche l'actionnement de la gâchette jusqu'à ce qu'une enclume ait été attachée au dispositif et se soit rapprochée. Un indicateur tactile est également prévu pour informer le chirurgien que le dispositif a été mis à feu et que la tête de l'enclume a été maintenue non rapprochée d'une distance suffisante pour permettre à la tête d'enclume de basculer.

Abstract: A component interface module (CIM) arbitrates through priority logic component command signals from redundant systems and integrates the selected priority command signal with component feedback signals in component logic to generate a control signal for a component in a complex plant. The non-software based CIM is programmable for use with a variety of plant components. The component logic includes blocking logic that prevents or terminates generation of the control signal such as when component activation has been completed. Diagnostics incorporated into the CIM include: an input port interface test, a pulse test that continuously checks fo r proper propagation of test pulses through the priority and component logic, and a test of the functioning of the CIM output device such as a relay.
