20100205757 | BYPASS PIG - Embodiments of the present invention generally relate to a bypass pig. In one embodiment, a pig for cleaning a tubular string includes a cylindrical body and two or more scrapers disposed along an outer surface of the body. The scrapers are operable to engage and clean an inner surface of the tubular string. The pig further includes a bypass formed between the scrapers. The bypass is operable to: intake a portion of propellant from a tail of the body, conduct the portion of propellant along an outer surface of the body, and discharge the portion of propellant in front of the body. | 08-19-2010 |
20100205822 | METHOD OF DRYING A TUBULAR STRING TO PREVENT BEDWRAP CORROSION - Embodiments of the present invention generally relate to a method of drying a tubular string to prevent bedwrap corrosion. In one embodiment, a method of drying a tubular string includes deploying a first bypass pig in the tubular string. The method further includes injecting propellant behind the first bypass pig, thereby driving the first bypass pig through the tubular string. A portion of the propellant bypasses the first bypass pig, thereby drying an inner surface of the tubular string. | 08-19-2010 |
20100209606 | METHOD OF TREATING A TUBULAR STRING USING A PIGTRAIN - Embodiments of the present invention generally relate to a method of treating a tubular string using a pigtrain. In one embodiment, a method of treating a tubular string includes injecting working fluid between a lead pig and a trail pig of a pigtrain. A bypass pig of the pigtrain is in a first position between the lead pig and trail pig and closer to the lead pig. The method further includes injecting propellant behind the trail pig, thereby driving the pigtrain through the tubular string. The bypass pig gradually moves from the first position to a second position closer to the trail pig, thereby agitating the working fluid. | 08-19-2010 |

20120260969 | Solar Energy Harvesting and Storage System - A solar energy harvesting and storage system is disclosed having a dual-sided lithographically integrated light-to-electrical energy converter. The integrated light-to-electrical energy converter has a dual-sided photovoltaic cell, a compound optical structure and a plurality of integrated DC to AC converters. Also disclosed is a dual-axis solar tracking system upon which the dual-sided lithographically integrated light-to-electrical energy converter is mounted. The dual-axis solar tracking system has two stages of tracking mounts, each tracking mount has a plurality of leaf-springs in a vertical arrangement. The leaf springs have differential coefficients of expansion and contraction so that each tracking mount tracks a solar light source in an orthogonal direction from the other tracking mount. | 10-18-2012 |
20150068586 | Array of Photovoltaic Cells - A solar energy harvesting and storage system is disclosed having a dual-sided lithographically integrated light-to-electrical energy converter. The integrated light-to-electrical energy converter has at least one array of photovoltaic, cells having an array of optoelectronic components, each of which have a compound optical structure that spatially separates light into multiple wavelengths and a P/N junction having a gradient of semiconductor materials and/or dopants responsive to a narrow band of wavelengths. A common electrode connects the optoelectronic components and the common electrode is electrically connected to at least one integrated DC to AC inverter. Also disclosed is a dual-axis solar tracking system upon which the dual-sided lithographically integrated light-to-electrical energy converter is mounted. The dual-axis solar tracking system has two stages of tracking mounts, each tracking mount has a plurality of leaf-springs in a vertical arrangement. The leaf springs have differential coefficients of expansion and contraction so that each tracking mount tracks a solar light source in an orthogonal direction from the other tracking mount. | 03-12-2015 |

20140139961 | DEVICE FOR PROVIDING PROTECTION AGAINST ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARDS INVOLVING TWO CIRCUIT CONDUCTORS - Disclosed herein is a device that protects against electrical shock hazards involving two circuit conductors. The device continuously evaluates the load characteristics of electrical equipment and automatically provides feedback on status and changes of such equipment. The device has a “learning mode” wherein it stores the load characteristics of loads connected to the device. The device also has an “protection mode” (or “normal mode”) wherein the devices compares connected load characteristics to stored load characteristics, and based on this comparison determines if an electrical fault is present. If the device determines that an electrical fault is present, the device then takes action to protect against electrical shock, such as by disconnecting the system from power. | 05-22-2014 |
