Patent number: 10557913Abstract: A marker for burying adjacent an underground structure such that a location of the underground structure can be identified from above a ground surface. The marker comprises a housing, a self-orienting beacon retention device disposed within the housing. The self-orienting beacon retention device comprises a coil bobbin, and an inductance-capacitance beacon device carried by the self-orienting beacon retention device. A coil of the LC beacon device is disposed around an exterior surface of the coil bobbin. The self-orienting beacon retention device is structured and operable to orient the coil bobbin and the inductor coil in a desired orientation relative to a ground surface regardless of the orientation of the housing relative to the ground surface.Type: GrantFiled: November 22, 2017Date of Patent: February 11, 2020Assignee: Textron Innovations Inc.Inventors: Curtis Clifford Taylor, Daniel Ugale, Kenneth Ollie Stark

Patent number: 9631470Abstract: A method, system, and apparatus are described for locating, installing, inventorying, actuating, and/or accessing down-hole equipment in a wellbore. This comprises tagging a casing by inserting permanent components of material compositions within sections along the length of a casing. Inserted components and/or portions of an original section function as unique readable active and/or passive markers. The piping system comprises at least one pipe having a plurality of markers placed in radial sections strategically arranged with independently identical or different material compositions or embedded in a length of the wellbore casing. The sections function as markers forming a readable pattern readable by the reader(s). The reader is one of or a combination of any of the group consisting of: a plug, a probe, a sensor, and/or a computer for reading markers. The reader travels in either a forward or backward direction.Type: GrantFiled: March 25, 2015Date of Patent: April 25, 2017Assignee: Advanced Oilfield Innovations (AOI), Inc.Inventors: Andre Orban, Daniel Maurice Lerner, Barry Kent Holder

Patent number: 5045368Abstract: A marked conduit allowing electronic location of the conduit after burial, having a plurality of electronic markers spaced thereon at predetermined intervals. The distance between the markers encodes information about the buried conduit. The markers are preferably passive circuits tuned to a specific frequency. The markers may be oriented in a predetermined pattern to encode additional information, and may be attached to the outer or inner surface of the conduit, or imbedded in the wall of the conduit.Type: GrantFiled: November 17, 1989Date of Patent: September 3, 1991Assignee: Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing CompanyInventors: Armond D. Cosman, Joe T. Minarovic, David C. Worboys

Patent number: 4982555Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for the sealing of a container (10) by means of a wafer (20). The container comprises one or more joining means (14, 16) which are adapted so that by a joint (12), e.g. a welding joint, they are connected in a leakproof manner, to the wafer in an edge zone (21) of the same. The wafer is held against a contact surface (32) of a retaining means so as to be moved by the same until it rests in its edge zone (21) against anyone of the joining means (14, 16). While the contact with the retaining means is maintained, the wafer is connected by a fixing means (50) in its edge zone in a leakproof manner to anyone of the joining means through the fixing means supplying energy to the edge zone so that a joint (12) is formed. The invention makes it possible to fix in a leakproof manner a previously cut wafer to the opening part of a container.Type: GrantFiled: August 7, 1989Date of Patent: January 8, 1991Assignee: PLM ABInventor: Ole Ingemann, deceased

Patent number: 4035532Abstract: A process for producing a flocked fabric laminate by coating an auxiliary substrate with a temporary adhesive binder, flocking the coated auxiliary substrate with flock fibers, coating the flock fibers with a curable flock adhesive binder, marrying a substrate backing layer to the binder coated flock, permanently setting the flock adhesive binder, and then removing the auxiliary substrate from the fabric laminate whereby the flock remains secured to the substrate backing layer is disclosed. Flocked fabric laminates obtained by such method are also described.Type: GrantFiled: November 11, 1975Date of Patent: July 12, 1977Assignee: United Merchants and Manufacturers, Inc.Inventors: Razmic S. Gregorian, Hans R. Hoernle

Patent number: 4034134Abstract: A process for producing a laminate by coating a continuous first layer of a film forming material onto a release sheet, distributing flock fibers uniformly onto the first layer, drying the first layer to form a film and secure the flock fibers thereto in a substantially upstanding position, coating the tips of the flock fibers with a flock adhesive, marrying the flocked film to a substrate backing layer such that the coated tips contact the said substrate layer, permanently setting the flock adhesive, and then removing the release sheet. Laminates obtained by such method are also described.Type: GrantFiled: October 7, 1975Date of Patent: July 5, 1977Assignee: United Merchants and Manufacturers, Inc.Inventors: Razmic S. Gregorian, Hans R. Hoernle

Patent number: 3939676Abstract: Long hairs of fur pelts known as guard hairs are removed to reveal soft underfur by contacting the pelt with a substrate coated with adhesive and then pulling the substrate away from the pelt. Recoverable or non-recoverable adhesive systems may be used.Type: GrantFiled: September 25, 1970Date of Patent: February 24, 1976Assignee: The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the InteriorInventors: Nicholas D. Gallagher, Herbert N. Johnston, Robert J. Valihura, Henry E. Hull
