  • Publication number: 20220316287
    Abstract: Cement slurry is prevented from coming into contact with hardening accelerator in a cementing tool in a simple manner. The method of supplying cement slurry has the steps of: adding capsule C to cement slurry, wherein capsule C is filled with hardening accelerator for the cement slurry; and supplying the cement slurry to a hole, wherein capsule C is added to the cement slurry, and the cement slurry is supplied through cementing tool 105 that is provided in the hole. Capsule C melts or collapses after a specific amount of time passes, wherein the specific amount of time is longer than a flow out time, which is a time for capsule C to flow out of cementing tool 105 after capsule C is added to the cement slurry.

  • Patent number: 11229381
    Abstract: A pulse signal generator circuit generates first and second pulse signals for electrodes placed on the chest of a subject with phases that differ by 180°. A rectifier circuit receives a potential difference signal, which reflects an impedance between the electrodes that changes according to respiratory motion and in which timing of changes caused by changes in the first pulse signal or the second pulse signal is delayed from the timing of the changes in the first pulse signal and the second pulse signal, and outputs a rectified signal produced by rectifying the potential difference signal. A control signal generator circuit causes the rectifier circuit to invert the potential difference signal, which becomes a negative voltage value from the certain timing, to a positive voltage value from the certain timing. An AD converter circuit outputs a digital value based on the magnitude of the rectified signal.
