Abstract: The invention relates to a package comprising a crate having a bottom, the package further comprising retaining means comprising an elastically deformable skin for holding at least one object (O) against the bottom of the crate, characterized in that the elastically deformable skin has a central elastic area and a peripheral elastic area around the central elastic area, the central elastic area having a lower elasticity than the peripheral elastic area, and in that the elastically deformable skin also comprises at least one elastic tertiary area extending the central elastic area in the direction of an edge of the elastically deformable skin while being bordered by the peripheral elastic area, said elastic tertiary area having an elasticity lower than or equal to the elasticity of the central elastic area.

Abstract: A package including: a case having a bottom and a peripheral rim composed of panels and a lid. The package is collapsible between: a flat configuration, in which the panels and the lid extend substantially parallel to the bottom and a use configuration in which the case defines a storage volume, and in which the lid is movable between a storage volume access position and a storage volume closed position. The package includes a locking mechanism, first mechanism for locking the lid in its closed position, and second mechanism for locking the package in its flat configuration.

Abstract: A package including: a case having a bottom and a peripheral rim which can adopt: a stowing position in which the peripheral rim extends substantially parallel to the bottom; a use position in which the peripheral rim extends from the bottom; a cover; and holding means for maintaining in the case an object to be transported. The holding means includes: a first part secured to the case; and a second part secured to the cover. At least one of the first part and the second part is relaxed in the stowing position of the peripheral rim, and tensioned in the use position of the peripheral rim.

Abstract: A package comprising a case defining a stowing volume, and a cover intended to close the stowing volume of the case, the case having a bottom and a peripheral rim which can adopt a stowed position in which it extends substantially parallel to the bottom and a use position in which it extends substantially perpendicular to the bottom. The case comprises a rigid element connected to the first panel and to the third panel by an elastic connection, the rigid element being movable between a storage position in which the rigid element is located near the bottom and a use position in which the rigid element is spaced from the bottom, the elastic connection tending to displace the rigid element from its storage position to its use position.

Abstract: Method and down-hole tool for use inside a well, the down-hole tool including a housing; an anchoring arm rotatably attached to the housing and configured to move between an open position and a closed position; a spring block configured to have a central part that moves along a longitudinal axis (X) of the housing which results in the movement of the anchoring arm between the open or closed positions; and an actuating mechanism connected to the central part and configured to move the central part along the longitudinal axis. The spring block is detachably attached to the housing.

Abstract: Method and deployment device for a downhole tool. The device includes a body; a door rotatably attached to the body and configured to have an open position for allowing at least a portion of a fishing neck of the downhole tool to contact the body and a close position that secure the at least a portion of the fishing neck inside the deployment device; a bend restrictor attached to the body and configured to receive a logging cable of the downhole tool; and a locking mechanism for securing the door in the close position.

Abstract: The invention relates to an anchoring harpoon intended in particular for an aircraft, capable of cooperating with an anchoring grate (2) of a platform, comprising jack means (3) including cylinder means (4) containing mobile piston means (5) provided with a rod (6) that extends beyond the cylinder means, the free end of which includes a harpoon head (7) that is hooked in the grate (2) and comprises retaining fingers (8, 13, 14) that can be moved between a retracted position and an active position by control means (9). The invention is characterised in that the cylinder means (4) include at least two telescopic cylinder portions (10, 11) which can move between a position in which one portion is retracted inside the other and an active position in which one portion projects out from the other.
