  • Patent number: 9004886
    Abstract: A pressure monitoring system allows for more accurate and reliable measurement of the pressure inside of a tube in a pump. The pressure monitoring system prevents movement of the tubing or a change in size of the tubing due to external forces applied to the pump, eliminating inaccuracies due to handling of the pump during use.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20100034053
    Abstract: A method, apparatus and system for acquiring land seismic data includes acquiring seismic data with a first autonomous seismic data acquisition unit and a second autonomous seismic data acquisition unit wherein each acquisition unit comprises a plurality of digitally controlled temperature-compensated crystal oscillators. Oscillator-based timing signals are acquired that are associated with the plurality of digitally controlled temperature compensated crystal oscillators and a time correction is determined to apply to the seismic data acquired with the first autonomous seismic data acquisition unit. The time correction is determined using the oscillator-based timing signals from the first and second autonomous seismic data acquisition units.

  • Publication number: 20040033145
    Abstract: A pump housing assembly includes a housing, a hub portion, and a flange. The housing has an end cowling defining a transition from a central portion of the housing to a transverse end portion. The hub portion extends longitudinally outwardly from the transverse end portion of housing. The flange extends radially outwardly from the outward end of the hub and is in spaced longitudinal relation to the end of the cowling to create a space to receive a head of a mounting bolt. The flange has an outer periphery with a pair of tangentially extending slots having an open end. The space for receiving a head of a mounting bolt is less than the length of a shank of a mounting bolt, to minimize the length of the housing. The slots have a width sufficient to receive the movement of a shank into and out of the open ends of the slots.

  • Patent number: 6588762
    Abstract: A lathe cut sealing ring includes a substantially cylindrical ring of elastomeric material formed about a central axis. The ring includes a rectangular cross-section and has an inner diameter, an outer diameter, opposite planar upper and lower surfaces, and a plurality of angularly spaced positioning ribs protruding inwardly from the inner diameter. This sealing ring and the groove in which it is located can advantageously be formed with simple and cost-effective lathe cutting operations.
