Abstract: The present invention pertains to the field of the arms industry and metallurgy, and also to the fields of materials engineering and chemical engineering. More specifically, the present invention refers to a novel ammunition cartridge comprising reinforced polymer and the manufacturing process thereof. The ammunition cartridge serves for receiving the gunpowder so that explosion can occur inside the weapon barrel. The technology proposed reduces the quantity of components to be pre-manufactured and assembly processes on the product, producing a full cartridge, directly upon injecting the thermoplastic, and can also use bi-component injection. With this, the portion of the collar ring can be made entirely of fiber-reinforced polymer material, which reduces the weight of the item and is beneficial for the useful life of the weapon in the bolt region.

Abstract: The present invention proposes a solution for anchoring systems, which can be applied to connect a robotic system with its power supply structure (for example, umbilical cables), or then separate the same into several modules, each containing a pair of anchors. The objective is achieved when the sleeve (4) is tensioned, by pulling the ring against its stop and, thus, performing a self-locking. The self-locking occurs because the friction force generated at the lace interface is greater than the sleeve tensioning force. Also, allied to this, so that there is an initial friction force, the mesh is tightened by threading the stop of the conventional ring in the house of the conventional ring. The proposed solution takes up little space for the anchoring system, and can be applied in pipes of reduced internal diameter, still being a robust tension anchoring solution. It can be applied to any part of the robot and as many times as necessary, not being limited to the connection with the umbilical.

Abstract: The present invention is used to compose the structure of a system that operates inside pipelines. It can be used in a robotic system in the form of a train to move tools inside small diameter tubes or ducts. It avoids the need for costly commercial connectors with limited variety of connections. The proposed solution is to partition/separate the electronic or hydraulic components into pressure vessel modules, thereby making it necessary to provide an adequate means of interconnection between said modules by means of an elastomeric conduit. Each module has a heat exchanger system (sink) to remove the heat generated by the electronic equipment installed inside thereof. The product of the invention has a sufficient degree of freedom to move in ducts and underwater pipes, where the hydrostatic pressure is extremely high.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a system for launching robots for use in oil and gas production wells, comprising a supporting structure (2), on which robot-launching tubing (4) is arranged; a dynamic seal (12) attached to the inlet end of the robot-launching tubing (4), which seals off the umbilical cable (8); an annular BOP valve (3) to restrict upward flow; and a ram BOP valve (7) at the other end of the tubing (4), to restrict upward flow and having a large enough opening to allow the robot to pass through, sealing off the umbilical cable (8). The system can be detached from the duct, used for transporting the robot, it can be flexible in terms of different configurations, and it can have a system that allows inertization of blocked lines. The present invention is used for introducing robots that operate internally in flexible and rigid ducts, with it being necessary to connect the tubing system to the equipment developed.

Abstract: The present invention provides a casing system for integration of modular internal intervention equipment in tubular lines, wherein the equipment comprises a plurality of modules (2), the casing system comprising a sleeve (1) encasing, in an integral manner, at least one module (2) of the plurality of modules (2) and at least one portion of at least one component upstream (3, 2) or downstream (2, 2a) of said at least one module (2). The integration casing system of the present invention guarantees the mechanical integration of all the modular internal intervention equipment, rendering viable the operation thereof inside tubular lines in a safer, more efficient and more advantageous manner.
