Patent CA-2695267-A1 (CA)
Title: Pressure balanced shaft seal assembly
Inventor: ORLOWSKI DAVID C
IPC: F16C33/80
Filed: 2010-03-03
Abstract: A pressure balanced shaft seal assembly that allows a seal to dynamically respond to angular or radial misalignment of a shaft is disclosed. The pressure balanced shaft seal assembly includes a fixed stator, a floating stator, and a labyrinth seal. In one embodiment, the floating stator and labyrinth seal are mounted within an annular groove formed in the fixed stator such that the floating stator and labyrinth seal may move a predetermined amount in the radial direction with respect to the fixed stator. A spherical interface between the labyrinth seal and floating stator may allow the labyrinth seal to pivot with respect to the floating stator during angular misalignment of a shaft around which the pressure balanced shaft seal assembly is mounted. A pressure balancing annular channel formed in the floating stator allows pressurized seal fluid to balance the axial pressure exerted on the floating stator by the process fluid.
Patent CA-2702894-A1 (CA)
Inventor: FLANDERS PATRICK S
IPC: G05D7/06
Filed: 2008-10-09
Abstract: An ESP variable speed drive controller functions in conjunction with a safety logic solver, dedicated pressure sensors and a surface emergency isolation valve, or safety shut-off valve (SSV), to perform a full functional test of the complete wellhead flowline system. The method includes the step of using a plurality of pressure transmitters to monitor the flowline pressure during normal operations and during a full stroke test of the safety shutoff valve and adjusting the speed of the downhole ESP during the test to maintain the pipeline pressure within predetermined safe pressure limits.  This wellhead flowline protection system and method utilizes the downhole ESP speed controller and an SSV to ensure that dangerous pressure levels are not reached and provides for full functional safety testing of the wellhead system. The ESP motor speed controller is used to permit functional testing and remove the pressure source from protected downstream flowline piping.

Patent CA-2705935-A1 (CA)
Inventor: HILDEBRANDT GEORGE
IPC: A47K3/40
Filed: 2008-11-21
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a jointless shower tray, which is installed in baths, or as a separate shower stall, with or without supporting bodies, which is advantageously level with the adjoining floor, and to a jointless shower tray. The drainage surface (4, 11, 19, 23, 25, 30) that collects water and guides it to the drainage opening (6, 14, 16, 27, 31, 32) of the shower tray (1, 10, 15, 18, 21, 24, 28, 29) is created from a material block having at least one plane-parallel surface by way of a material removal machining method. According to the invention, the drainage surface (4, 11, 19, 23, 25, 30) is produced in one operation using a program-controlled three-dimensional machining method, wherein the edge region (5, 26) of the shower tray (1, 15, 18, 24, 28, 29) transitions continuously into the drainage surface (4, 19, 25, 30) at least in the entrance and exit region thereof.  This very convenient machining method can be used to configure the surface of the shower bottom, in one uninterrupted operation, in various shapes and without any shoulder whatsoever. In this way, custom-produced shower trays can be produced relatively inexpensively, in any shape desired by the customer, and without edges that would be detrimental to slip-free conditions.
