The inner mandrel moves between a first position and a third position to expose the flow ports to the wellbore. The first set of flow ports, with its smaller area relative to the second set of flow ports, creates a noticeable pressure increase or spike that can be observed at surface when exposed to the wellbore. The second set of flow ports creates a noticeable pressure drop when it is exposed to the wellbore.	09-25-2014

20150329934	Dahl Process - The Dahl mining system is an environmentally safe, chemical free system that mines microscopic precious metals from head ore adding water and urea agitating this mixture until the precious metals are released from the head ore. Polymers are then added to the mixture and agitated until the polymers reach full hydration. The polymers are then screened from the mixture for the dehydration process. The extraction portion of this process begins by separating the metals from the polymers or bar in a controlled environment or room.	11-19-2015

20100214724	POWER SWITCH FOR PREVENTING ACCIDENTAL ARCS - A power switch disposed in a housing includes a contact breaker configured to connect and disconnect a low-voltage switchgear from a power source supplying the low-voltage switchgear, a triggering device configured to disconnect the low-voltage switchgear in an overload event, a current detection device, a control device, a first evaluation device configured to evaluate an accidental arc overcurrent, and a second evaluation device configured to evaluate the accidental arc overcurrent. The power switch is configured to be activated via an overcurrent signal generated by an arc monitoring system in response to the accidental arc overcurrent. The overcurrent signal is linked to the at least one triggering signal. The second evaluation has a threshold above a threshold of the first evaluation device. The triggering device is configured to be activated via a turn-off pulse when a signal from the current detection device is above the threshold of the second evaluation device.	08-26-2010
20150270084	DEVICE FOR RAPID SHORT-CIRCUITING AND EARTHING OF THE PHASES IN A POWER NETWORK - The invention relates to a switching device for short-circuiting and earthing at least two phases in an electric power network. The device comprises a first phase contact, a second phase contact, and an earthed, movable contact, which can, on the one hand, assume a first position, where the contact is insulated from the phases, and, on the other hand, a second position, where the contact is connected to the phase contacts and thereby earths and short-circuits the phases. The device is characterized in that the first phase contact and the second phase contact are axially displaced from each other and that they are disposed around the movable contact, and that the contact is cylinder-shaped and comprises two circumferentially disposed contact areas, which are axially displaced from each other and intended to connect to the phase contacts in the second position, so that the phases are short-circuited and earthed via the contact, and that the device comprises electrically insulating areas, which are adapted to abut against the phase contacts in the first position.	09-24-2015

20150253217	In-Service Optical Time Domain Reflectometry Utilizing Raman Pump Source - An arrangement for providing real-time, in-service OTDR measurements in an optical communication system utilizing distributed Raman amplification. One or more of the laser diodes used to provide the pump light necessary to create optical gain is modified to also generate short duration pulses that ride above or below the conventional pump light. These short duration pulses (which co-exist with the pump light within the optical fiber) are used in performing OTDR measurements, with a conventional processing system used to evaluate reflected pulses and create the actual OTDR measurements.	09-10-2015
20160033359	Edge Propagating Optical Time Domain Reflectometer And Method Of Using The Same - An OTDR system utilizes a laser source that is turned “on” and kept powered until its light reaches the end of the fiber span being measured (i.e., until the fiber span is fully illuminated). At any point in time after the fiber is fully illuminated, the laser source can be turned “off”. The return (reflected and backscattered) signal is directed into a photodetector of the OTDR, and is measured from the point in time when the fiber span starts to be illuminated. The measurements are made by sampling the return signal at predetermined time intervals—defined as the sampling rate. The created power samples are then subjected to post-processing in the form of a differentiation operation to create a conventional OTDR trace from the collected data.	02-04-2016
