  • Patent number: 11913324
    Abstract: An apparatus for downhole multi-dimensional imaging includes an acquisition unit configured to acquire a formation resistivity signal, an ultrasonic echo signal and an orientation signal regularly; a sector calculation unit configured to calculate, based on said orientation signal, a sector where a currently acquired signal is from; and a multi-dimensional imaging unit, configured to calculate, based on the signals acquired by the acquisition unit, data of resistivity, distance from a drilling tool to a borehole wall and ultrasonic echo amplitude, and distribute said data into all sectors for feature recognition and extraction, thus obtaining key features characterizing a current formation being drilled, said key features being transmitted to ground for guiding drilling process. The structural complexity and the length of the downhole imaging measurement instrument can be reduced, and feature recognition can be directly performed on the imaging data underground.

  • Patent number: 10773398
    Abstract: A robot foot structure for being used in conjunction with the main body structure of a humanoid robot is provided, the robot foot structure being connected to a bottom of the main body structure, wherein the robot foot structure includes a sole plate and a buffering mechanism provided on the sole plate, the buffering mechanism is configured to be connected between the sole plate and the main body structure of the humanoid robot for buffering a load acted on the robot foot structure generated by the weight of the main body structure during walking of the robot foot structure. A load generated by the weight of the main body structure during walking is acted on the buffering mechanism which in turn absorbs an impact resulted from the load as the robot foot structure touches the ground, such that the service life of the robot foot structure can be extended.
