Abstract: A tension link for use in downhole operations. The tension link has a link body connecting two features, such as a backreamer and product pipe, which are towed through a borehole. The tension link has electronics which can monitor the tension in the link body. The electronics may include a Bluetooth radio or similar device, which uses a power source to send a low power signal including the tension data to a beacon, which is located in a separate cavity of the tension link. The beacon encodes received information about tension onto a stronger electromagnetic field. This electromagnetic field may, in turn, be used to power the electronics. No direct link between the electronics and the beacon exists, and the beacon may be used in other downhole operations other than tension monitoring, such as directional drilling. The electromagnetic field signal is detected at a receiving antenna at an uphole location.

Abstract: In a particular embodiment, a force sensor apparatus is disclosed that includes a force-compliant element that deforms in response to applications of forces to the force sensor apparatus. The force sensor apparatus also includes a sensing element coupled to an upper region of the force-compliant element and configured to generate one or more signals indicating an amount that the force-compliant element deforms in response to the application of forces to the force sensor apparatus. The force-compliant element has a bottom region that includes a force-receiving surface and an outer region surrounding the force-receiving surface. In this example embodiment, the outer region is substantially level. In a particular embodiment, the outer region is absent any grooves. Alternatively, the outer region may have one or more small grooves.

Abstract: Assisted racking of digital resistance includes detecting a state of a cable. A motor is mechanically coupled to the cable to provide resistance during an exercise by tensioning the cable. It further includes determining completion of the exercise based at least in part on the detected state of the cable. It further includes selectively removing resistance from the cable based at least in part on the determination that the user has completed the exercise.
