  • Publication number: 20240110561
    Abstract: There is provided a downhole sucker rod pump comprising: a plunger, a housing including an inner surface, a housing passage defined by the inner surface, and a recess defined within the inner surface of the housing. The plunger and the housing are co-operatively configured such that the plunger is operable for reciprocating movement through the housing passage, with effect that: the plunger traverses a plunger-traversable section of the inner surface of the housing, and solids-comprising reservoir fluid material is displaceable in an uphole direction via the housing passage. At least a portion of the recess is a plunger-traversable recess, and the plunger-traversable recess portion is defined within the plunger-traversable section, the housing passage includes a downhole space disposed downhole relative to the plunger-traversable section, and the plunger-traversable recess portion is disposed in flow communication with the downhole space.

  • Patent number: 11947066
    Abstract: A drill hole logging system (5) incorporates a computing system (58) at the surface and a deployment mechanism (40) for conveying a logging tool (10) configured to measure one or more geophysical parameters into a drill hole (20). A transmission means (57) communicates commands and data representing the geophysical parameters between the surface computing system and the logging tool. A borehole caliper (300) is employed to profile the inside of the borehole.

  • Publication number: 20240085714
    Abstract: The present disclosure describes near-eye display systems including an array of projectors and a one-dimensional exit pupil expander. The array of projectors can be arranged along a first dimension and can output image light towards an input coupler within a waveguide that provides one-dimensional exit pupil expansion. In some implementations, arrays of monochromatic projectors are implemented and arranged in offset columns. The input coupler in-couples the image light from the array of projectors into a TIR path within the waveguide. Different optical elements, including diffractive and reflective optics, may be implemented as the input coupler. The image light travels within the waveguide until it interacts with an output coupler. Upon interaction with the output coupler, the image light is expanded in a second dimension transverse to the first dimension and is coupled out of the waveguide.

  • Patent number: 10405727
    Abstract: A dishwasher appliance is provided having a disk diverter assembly operably coupled to a primary supply conduit for selectively diverting a flow of wash fluid between a middle spray assembly and an upper spray assembly. The disk diverter assembly includes a diverter disk positioned within a diverter housing defining a fluid inlet, a first fluid outlet in fluid communication with the middle spray assembly, and a second fluid outlet in fluid communication with the upper spray assembly. The diverter disk defines an aperture and a partial flange that extends along an axial direction. A positioning assembly selectively rotates the diverter disk between a first position where wash fluid is directed only through the first fluid outlet to the middle spray assembly and a second position where wash fluid is directed only through the second fluid outlet to the upper spray assembly.
