摘要:
An apparatus (100) for obtaining a plurality of fluid samples in a subterranean well includes a carrier (104), a plurality of sampling chambers (102) and a pressure source (108) of the apparatus (100). The carrier (104) has a longitudinally extending internal fluid passageway (112) and a plurality of externally disposed chamber receiving slots (159). Each of sampling chamber (102) is positioned in one of the chamber receiving slots (159) of the carrier (104). The pressure source (108) is selectively in fluid communication with each of the sampling chambers (102) such that the pressure source (108) is operable to pressurize each of the sampling chambers (102) after the samples are obtained.

A composition and method for protecting pipeline joints is disclosed. A mold covers the exposed pipeline joint. A reaction composition including a polyol, an isocyanate, and an ester, preferably 2,2,4-trimethyl-1,2-pentanediol diisobutyrate, is added to the mold and allowed to react to form a polymer.

A method offsetting the cost of wireless telecommunication device usage through the placement of advertisements onto wireless telecommunication devices. Wireless telecommunication providers sell advertisers the opportunity to place visual advertisements on to the devices of its customers. The wireless telecommunication providers can enhance the revenue generated by such sales by providing user demographics to enable specific advertisements to target specific demographics. The method enables the providers to offset the cost to its customers by receipt of such advertisement generated revenue. The wireless telecommunication device user will have advertisements on the devices display that will not materially affect the operation of the device and be able to use such device at substantially lower costs.

Computer-implemented methods and systems are provided for predicting how business decisions will impact an enterprise. A group of models may be used to model aspects of an enterprise and business units over a multiyear period. Models relating to different business parameters may be linked so that it may be determined how business decisions that result in a change to an input to one model impact aspects of the enterprise that are not modeled by the model. An iterative process may be used to obtain optimal results.

Disclosed herein is a hierarchical data storage and retrieval system implemented using a computed statistically unique signature for the content of given computer data as its basis. The data storage and retrieval system can be used to catalog computer information for easy indexing and retrieval. The signature is computed by any number of techniques so long as it is able to produce a statistically unique signature, one example being the SHA-1 algorithm. The system is able to reduce the amount of data that is stored and the time required for retrieving the data. Provide a way to move electronic data in an encrypted secure manner that requires the complete data set being moved for decryption of the data. Even if a portion of the data is compromised that portion would still remain secure. The data is encrypted and separated into two or more portions all of which would be needed to decrypt the data. Detailed information on various example embodiments of the inventions are provided in the Detailed Description below, and the inventions are defined by the appended claims.
摘要:
A modular refrigeration unit for use in a refrigeration cabinet has a condenser assembly, an evaporator assembly, and a bulkhead assembly positioned between the condenser assembly and the evaporator assembly. The refrigeration cabinet includes a condenser chamber and an insulated main chamber and mating surfaces defining an opening there between. The modular refrigeration unit includes a gasket assembly coupled to a periphery of the bulkhead assembly. The gasket assembly includes one vane mounted on a thermal breaker and engageable with the mating surfaces to form a substantially air-tight seal between the condenser chamber and the main chamber. The modular refrigeration unit is adapted for movement substantially transverse to the bulkhead assembly to engage the vane with the mating surfaces to form the substantially air-tight seal.
摘要:
A container assembly comprises first and second containers. The first container includes a first body portion and a first rim. The first rim has a first plurality of ribs projecting generally upwardly therefrom such that first spaces are formed between adjacent ribs. The first rim has a generally convex shape. The second container includes a second body portion and a second rim. The second rim has a second plurality of ribs projecting generally downwardly therefrom such that second spaces are formed between adjacent ribs. The second rim has a generally concave shape. The first and second rims have shapes that correspond with each other when locked. The first and second containers are adapted to be releasably lockable by fitting the second plurality of ribs into respective ones of the first plurality of ribs and fitting the first spaces into respective ones of the second spaces.
摘要:
A method of opening a container assembly comprises providing a container assembly with first and second containers. Each of the containers includes a continuous body portion and a rim. The rim encompasses and projects laterally outwardly from the body portion. The rim has a plurality of features projecting generally upwardly therefrom such that spaces are formed between adjacent features. The first and second rims are shaped substantially the same. The containers are releasably engageable to each other to form the container assembly by fitting the respective plurality of upwardly-projecting features into respective spaces. The container assembly is opened by exerting downward pressure on one of the continuous body portions resulting in the disengagement of the first and second rims from each other.
