Patent number: 8212484Abstract: A method and apparatus for initiating and maintaining an abnormal glow volumetric sonoplasma discharge (VSPD). With certain parameters of the electrical discharge and of the intensity of elastic vibrations, it is possible to initiate VSPD within a cavitating liquid medium. The mechanism for the initiation of VSPD is related to the breakdown of gas phase microchannels formed by growth cavitation bubbles. The method for continuous processing uses elastic vibrations in the frequency range 1-100 kHz with enough intensity for the development of cavitation phenomena; these vibrations are introduced into the liquid phase working medium, and a source of direct, alternating, high frequency and ultrahigh frequency electric field in liquid provides the initiation and stable glow of VSPD. Resulting VSPD is characterized by volumetric glow in the frequency range of visible light and ultraviolet radiation in the entire cavitational-electric field and has a rising volt-ampere characteristic curve.Type: GrantFiled: May 13, 2009Date of Patent: July 3, 2012Assignee: Research and Innovation, Inc.Inventors: Alfredo Zolezzi-Garreton, Oleg Abramov, Vladimir Abramov, legal representative

Publication number: 20070040760Abstract: Systems and methods for a wireless communication device having a switched multi-beam antenna and methods for manufacturing the same are described. One system and method includes a plurality of antenna of elements. Groups of the antenna elements cooperate to form active one or more antenna elements while other groups of the antenna elements cooperate to form a reflector for the active antenna elements. This creates a directed transmission or direction of positive gain for the antenna system. The same group of antenna elements can be switched so that other antenna elements cooperate to form the active element while another group forms a reflector for the active elements thereby providing a different direction of positive gain. The system can be used for various wireless communication protocols and at various frequency ranges.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 22, 2005Publication date: February 22, 2007Inventors: Farid Nagaev, Oleg Abramov, Pertti Visuri

Patent number: 7063144Abstract: An electro acoustic device and related method for increasing the production capacity of wells that contains oil, gas and/or water is disclosed. The electro acoustic device is submerged in the well producing zone, and includes an electric generator, one or more electro acoustic transducers, and one or more wave guide systems (sonotrodes) that include radiators which transmit vibrations into the medium under treatment. The electro acoustic device produces vibrations that stimulate the occurrence of mass transfer processes within the well.

Patent number: 7059413Abstract: In the oil-producing industry, an apparatus can be used to increase the yield of oil wells developed by conventional methods during production of high viscosity oils. Use of the apparatus results in an increase in the permeability of a reservoir and a reduction in the viscosity of oil, added to an increase in environmental safety by avoiding use of chemical reagents and steam generators. The apparatus applies a high power ultrasonic field in the well bottom zone that reduces viscosity of oil, also heating the well bottom zone. The apparatus comprises a surface ultrasonic generator and at least one ultrasonic magnetostrictive radiator placed at the end of oil well tubing, using high frequency currents that warm the tubing and maintain the viscosity of oil during transport to the surface.Type: GrantFiled: March 19, 2004Date of Patent: June 13, 2006Assignee: Klamath Falls, Inc.Inventors: Oleg Abramov, Vladimir Abramov, Andrey Pechkov, Alfredo Zolezzi Garreton, Luis Paredes-Rojas
