  • Patent number: 9513391
    Abstract: To acquire near-zero offset survey data, a survey source and a first streamer attached to the survey source are provided, where the first streamer has at least one survey receiver. A second streamer separate from the survey source and the first streamer includes survey receivers. Near-zero offset data is measured using the at least one survey receiver of the first streamer.

  • Patent number: 9207348
    Abstract: One embodiment of the invention concerns a probe that couples to a seismic vessel via a tow cable. When deploying probes from a seismic vessel that is towing source arrays and streamers, the probe and its tow cable can tangle with elements of the towed seismic spread. However, a cable guide may be used to lessen the risk for such entanglement by guiding the tow cable into the water at a distance removed from the seismic spread. Also, the probe may be steerable to steer the probe and tow cable away from the seismic spread. Other embodiments are described herein.

  • Publication number: 20100034679
    Abstract: The invention concerns a refrigerant compressor with a cylinder, in which is arranged a piston (5) that is connected to a crankshaft via a connecting rod (14), the connecting rod (14) having a piston eye (18), through which a bolt (17) inserted in the piston (5) is guided. With such a refrigerant compressor, it is endeavoured to achieve a good efficiency. For this purpose, the bolt (17) is inserted in a blind bore (19).

  • Patent number: 7316291
    Abstract: The invention concerns a suction muffler for a hermetic refrigerant compressor with a housing having an inlet and an outlet and limiting at least one muffling chamber, and a gas supply channel located in the muffling chamber between the inlet and the outlet. It is endeavoured to prevent too much oil from remaining in the refrigerant gas flow. For this purpose, the gas supply channel forms a throttling path and ends in the muffling chamber, and that in the area of the inlet of the gas supply channel an oil extraction opening is located, which ends in the muffling chamber.

  • Publication number: 20070196217
    Abstract: The invention concerns a cylinder head arrangement for a piston compressor, with a cylinder block, in which a compression chamber is formed, which is delimited on one side by a valve plate that is clamped between the cylinder block and a cylinder head cover. In order to provide a cylinder head arrangement that has a high degree of tightness and can be manufactured in a cost-effective manner, the valve plate (6) has on at least one side at least one bead (40) projecting from the valve plate surface (21) concerned.

  • Patent number: 6845843
    Abstract: The invention concerns a suction muffler for a refrigerating machine with a housing, in which at least one chamber is arranged and which has an inlet opening (7), an outlet opening and an oil discharge opening. It is endeavoured to avoid that too much oil remains in the chamber. For this purpose, an oil collecting room is arranged to be connected to the bottom end of the chamber, the oil discharge opening being arranged at the bottom end of said oil collecting room.

  • Patent number: 6402484
    Abstract: The invention concerns a refrigerant compressor with a cylinder block (1), a valve plate (4), a pipe connectable or connected with a suction muffler, a cover (2) covering the valve plate (4), a first sealing (3) between cover and valve plate and a second sealing (5) between valve plate and cylinder block. On assembling the refrigerant compressor it should be provided that the flow resistance of the suction gas is reduced as much as possible. For this purpose, each of the following pairs of members, cover. (2) and pipe (29), pipe (29) and valve plate (4) and valve plate (4) and cylinder block (1), has an alignment device for its members with at least two guiding elements, and that the members (2, 29, 4, 1) are assembled in a direction, which is substantially parallel to the guiding elements.

  • Patent number: 5212668
    Abstract: A method of quantifying the level of weather and sea noise during marine seismic surveys which often negatively effect the acquired data produced thereby, by recording this noise along the seismic line prior to the shot registration and possibly also during a break in the shot registration and/or after the conclusion of the shot registration, and obtaining a picture of these noise conditions which correspond to those which are found in the stacked records of common reflection points for improving the signal/noise ratio in the stacked CMP data.
