Abstract: A tool for applying tint film to the rear window of an automobile has a unitary body with a concave top side and a convex bottom side, and the unitary body including a first elongate wing with front and rear edges extending to a first distal end, and an opposite second elongate wing with front and rear edges extending to a second distal end, and a central portion between the first and second elongate wings. The unitary body includes a skeletal frame member and flexible blades fitted to the skeletal frame member and extending about a periphery of the first and second elongate wings to define the front and rear edges and distal ends. The skeletal frame maintains desired curvature and prevents excessive flexing and bending of the elongate wings. The first and second wings have different degrees of curvature measured transversely between the respective front and rear edges.

Abstract: A plunger of improved construction for reciprocating in a production string of a gas or oil well to remove fluid from the well. The plunger includes a sleeve having a through passage extending longitudinally from a first end to a second end, the second end forming a seat, a sealing means carried by the sleeve for engaging the inner surface of the production string, a detachable valve member releasably received by the seat to seal the through passage, and a catch positioned to releasably couple the detachable valve member to the sleeve within the seat. The catch retaining the detachable valve member until the detachable valve member is impacted at the surface of the well by a trip rod. The improved construction provides for the use of a heavier or more dense detachable valve member and a lighter or less dense sleeve than previously used in prior plungers, which results in a plunger having an increased efficiency and a greater cycle frequency.

Abstract: A production plunger that automatically reciprocates in a production string of a well to remove formation fluid from the well. The production plunger makes a sealing contact with the production string and includes a passage through which all formation fluid is caused to flow through. The passage includes a valve that operates automatically in response to pressure within the production string to open and close the passage to allow and stop formation fluid from flowing in the passage. The plunger includes a locking device to ensure the plunger does not short cycle and a fail safe mechanism ensuring the valve closes in case of plunger failure, or upon a minimal build up of pressure by shutting in the well. Further, the entire valve is enclosed in the plunger preventing damage to valve elements from impacting downhole equipment, and the plunger includes fluid ports positioned so as not to easily capture well solids.

Abstract: In a multi-service platform system (300), a method of skew adjustment can include providing an initiator VME module (302) coupled to a responder VME module (304) over a parallel multi-drop bus network (306). The initiator VME module communicates a calibration cycle (316) to the responder VME module during a calibration phase (208), where the calibration cycle includes a reference signal (322) and a training data signal (324) having a preset relationship (321), and where the calibration cycle is communicated using a source synchronous protocol (107). The responder VME module calculates a deviation (350) from the preset relationship of the reference signal and the training data signal, where the deviation comprises a delay time (325). The initiator VME module communicates a data signal (418) to the responder VME module during a data phase (210), where the data signal includes the reference signal and an actual data signal (426).
