  • Publication number: 20220291289
    Abstract: Methods are provided for generating an estimated number of workflow cycles able to be executed with a remaining battery capacity of a battery in a device. A workflow cycle comprising a predefined series of tasks of a work application executed during a defined timeframe is defined. Beginning battery capacity is determined at start of work application execution. End battery capacity at completion of work application execution is determined. Battery usage estimate associated with work application is calculated from difference between beginning battery capacity and end battery capacity. The estimated number of workflow cycles able to be executed is based on the remaining battery capacity and the battery usage estimate.

  • Patent number: 10097681
    Abstract: A method for managing energy usage by a mobile device is described. An environmental characteristic is monitored over environments in which the mobile device is operable. A location of the mobile device is tracked in relation to the environments. The mobile device is informed with data relating to the environmental characteristic of the environment in which the mobile device location is tracked. A characteristic of the mobile device is sensed. The data, related to the environmental characteristic of the tracked location, is compared to the sensed mobile device characteristic. An action is determined related to the energy-using operation of the mobile device based on the comparison. The energy-using operation of the mobile device is controlled, based on the determined action.

  • Publication number: 20140261008
    Abstract: An outdoor cooker having a heavy metal, circular housing with an open top and a closed bottom. A grill sleeve and grill pivot tube are attached to the housing and to a circular grill. The grill pivot tube is used to pivot the grill above the open top of the housing and receiving and cooking food items on the grill. The cooker also including a skillet sleeve and skillet pivot tube attached to the housing and a circular skillet. The skillet pivot tube is used to pivot the skillet above the open top of the housing for cooking food items. The cooker also includes leg tubes attached to the outside of the housing for receiving two or more removable vertical legs. The legs are used to support the housing on a ground surface.

  • Publication number: 20120318529
    Abstract: A subsea pressure control system includes an inlet flowline, a pressure sensing device coupled into the inlet flowline and in fluid communication with the inlet flowline, a controller coupled to the pressure sensing device, an actuator coupled to the controller, and a valve coupled to the actuator and a fluid outlet. The controller may be responsive to the pressure sensing device, the actuator may be responsive to the controller, and the valve may be responsive to the actuator to regulate a measured pressure of the pressure sensing device at or below a setpoint pressure. Another subsea pressure control system includes a controller responsive to a setpoint pressure in a flowline, and a valve responsive to a signal from the controller, wherein the signal is based on the setpoint pressure and actuates the valve from a closed position to an open position.

  • Publication number: 20050161985
    Abstract: An electrically heated stone or composite material bench that is suitable for both inside and outdoor use and providing added comfort to the seated user in colder climates or conditions. The stone bench has upright supports (29 and 31) and a bottom seat (23) and may or may not contain an upright back support (21). A length of commercially produced electrical heating cable (33) is embedded in each of the hollowed out rock slabs that comprise the seat and back. The cable is inlaid in a spiral pattern at a distance of around 1.5 inches apart, with around 35 feet of cable used per rock slab. The amount of cable is dependent on the climate and needs of user. Electrical connections are made in a junction box (39) attached to the underside of bench and attached to a power cord (37). Steel pins or bolts securely fasten and stabilize assembled heated stone bench.

  • Patent number: 6200069
    Abstract: A jack up work platform is recited. The work platform comprises a hovercraft vessel outfitted with several jack up legs. The hovercraft can traverse environmentally sensitive terrain such a brackish and freshwater marshes without the need to dig canals that may cause or exacerbate salt water intrusion. Once the drilling or exploration site is reached, the jack up legs may be lowered, lifting the work platform above the surface. Once the vessel is secured on the legs, it may be used like a conventional oil field work platform for drilling, exploration, or construction jobs for which other work platforms or vessels are typically used. The deck of the hovercraft may serve as the work platform or the deck may be provided with a cantilevered work platform extension. The hovercraft will preferably be provided with typical oil field heavy machinery such as a crane for assembly of the legs, and drill stem as well as for work on other structures.

  • Patent number: 4488747
    Abstract: This invention relates to fishing tools for first determining the orientation of an object before retrieving said object from a well, well bore, casing, and the like. It comprises a base with a plurality of electrode welding tips retractably attached thereto and displaced in pre-selected pattern. Signals are generated as the electrode tips come into contact with the object indicating the orientation of the object. Electrical welding current is then selectively applied to a desired electrode to attach to the object for retrieval.

  • Patent number: 4137800
    Abstract: There is disclosed a torque wrench, including a main body, an actuator including a piston/cylinder arrangement and cooperating spool valve which selectively supplies pressurized fluid to either side of the piston member. The actuator is supported in the main body and adapted to act upon and selectively reciprocate a thrust member relative to the main body, the thrust member being adapted to engage and pivot a torque arm for providing a torque output at an output shaft via a ratchet arrangement incorporated between the torque arm and the output shaft. The torque arm is supported independently of the thrust member and is not physically connected thereto.
