The nose row and the inner row of cutting structures are formed of milled teeth. The gage row of cutting structures is formed of cutter inserts.

Abstract: A method for drilling out a plug includes directing a hybrid rotary cone drill bit having a plurality of rotary cones into a borehole lined with a casing. A body of the plug is drilled out using milled teeth formed in the hybrid rotary cone drill bit. A slip of the plug is drilled out using cutter inserts secured into the rotary cone where the slip contacts the casing. The drilled out plug is directed up the borehole using a drilling fluid.

Abstract: The present invention relates inter alia to a compound of formula (I) and to compositions comprising the same and to the use of the compounds and to compositions of the compounds in treatment, for example in the treatment of inflammatory diseases, in particular respiratory inflammatory disease. The invention also extends to methods of making the said compounds.

Abstract: To address issues of durability of pressure compensation systems in roller cone rock bits, a composite diaphragm of a pressure compensation system for a roller cone drill bit includes an inner surface that defines an inner cavity and is formed of a first elastomeric material. The inner cavity is configured to serve as a lubricant reservoir. An external surface is disposed opposite the inner surface and is formed of a second elastomeric material that is different than the first elastomeric material.

Abstract: A shaft access enabling device of an elevator system has a shaft access control unit and at least one access monitoring unit, wherein the shaft access control unit controls an operating state of the at least one access monitoring unit and the access monitoring unit monitors at least one shaft access. The shaft access control unit has at least two different operating modes for controlling the operating state of the at least one access monitoring unit and inspects access authorization before changing between the at least two operating modes thereof.

Abstract: An earth boring drill bit having an alternate path to allow cuttings to be ejected or evacuated from the drill bit and up the bore hole is disclosed. The evacuation hole of the present disclosure allows larger sized cuttings to evacuate from the bit without having to be continually ground by rolling cone cutters until the cuttings are small enough to follow a path around the edge of the shirttail of the bit and up the borehole. A cuttings restrictor is disposed at the inlet of the evacuation hole. The cuttings restrictor ensures that only cuttings that are sized to move completely through the evacuation hole and exit the drill bit are allowed to enter the evacuation hole.

Abstract: In an elevator installation, an elevator car is movably arranged alongside guide rails and the elevator car is equipped with a brake system with preferably two safety brakes. A movement monitoring system monitors the movement parameters of the elevator car and triggers corresponding warnings or safety measures, if permissible threshold values are exceeded or it provides determined adjusted movement parameters to an elevator control. The movement monitoring system determines a first movement parameter in a time interval and detects an acceleration of the elevator car. The movement monitoring system determines the time interval for determining the adjusted movement parameter as a function of the detected acceleration.

Abstract: A method for applying a coating to a surface of an industrial tool includes applying a coating including a thermosetting polymer to a metallic surface of the industrial tool. The coating is cured to form a bond between the coating and the metallic surface. According to certain embodiments, the thermosetting polymer may be combined with an additive. The additive may be selected to improve the chemical resistance or wear resistance of the coating and thereby improve the chemical resistance or wear resistance of certain surfaces of the industrial tool.

Abstract: A method and an equipment for monitoring the movement of an elevator car detect an acceleration of the elevator car and a travel speed or a travel distance of the elevator car and an integrated travel speed is calculated from the detected acceleration. In that case, the detected travel speed or the travel speed derived from the detected travel distance is used as a start variable of an integration cycle. In addition, the integrated travel speed is compared with at least one predetermined limit speed and a safety measure is triggered if exceeding of the predetermined limit speed is established.

Abstract: A bit body for a drill bit for horizontal directional drilling includes a pair of legs and a small wedge member disposed between the pair of legs. A roller cone is rotatably mounted to each bearing shaft extending from a respective leg. The roller cones support full coverage cutting structures. A center jet nozzle is configured to direct drilling fluid between the pair of roller cones. A stabilizer member maintains an upright drilling position of the drill bit within the borehole.

Abstract: A device can actuate and reset a safety gear in an elevator system. The device contains a pressure accumulator, possibly a compression spring, which, in case of need, can move at least two engagement elements of the safety gear essentially synchronously into an engaged position, and a remotely actuatable resetting device, which can retension the pressure accumulator into a ready position.
