  • Patent number: 6799259
    Abstract: A system for dynamically controlling activation status of multiple data storage structures in a single computer so that a single computer can be dynamically configured using two or more hard drives, each with its own disk operating system. The system includes a means for selectively automatically toggling between active data storage structures and inactive data storage structures. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the dynamic controlling means can dynamically switch activation status without re-booting or re-powering the computer.

  • Patent number: 4859151
    Abstract: A pump-off control for a pumpjack unit. The pumpjack unit has a flow line therefrom connected to a tank battery. A control device is connected in the flow line so that all of the production must flow therethrough. The control apparatus includes an orifice placed in the flow line and a bypass arranged for flow to occur around the orifice. A movable member is placed within the bypass and each stroke of the pumpjack moves the member in proportion to the quantity of liquid flowing therethrough. The movable member is connected to actuate a switch device, indicator, chart, and counter. The orifice is sized respective to the movable member so that each stroke of the pumpjace causes the movable member to move in proportion to the produced fluid forced through the bypass. The switch device is positioned to be actuated at a predetermined flow rate each stroke of the pump.

  • Patent number: 4170166
    Abstract: Air motor having a crankcase about which a plurality of expansible chambers are arranged so that a crankshaft journaled within the crankcase can be connected to a bellows of the expansible chamber by a rod assembly. The crankshaft moves a cam means which in turn moves a valve assembly for controlling flow of compressed air into and out of the expansible chambers. Each expansible chamber is formed by a bellows concentrically aligned and placed within a cylinder to form an annular chamber therebetween. The rod assembly is received through a guide and seal means which maintains the rod axially aligned with respect to the expansible chamber, and seals the interior of the crankcase from the expansible chamber assembly. An intermediate chamber is formed between the crankcase and expansible chamber which greatly increases the efficiency of the motor.
