Drill Adaptor

A drill adaptor that offers a simple solution for drilling large diameter holes in the earth with a small to mid-sized excavator. The drill adaptor allows drilling to occur on un-level ground as it can move side to side, front to back, and vertically up and down. The drill adaptor is comprised of a slide tube that moves the drill attachment up and down, side to side, and front to back. The drill adaptor uses pins to secure the inner, outer, and lower pivot housings. The inner and outer pivot housing allows the slide tubews front to back and side to side motion as the lower pivot housing connects to the drill attachment and or drill rotator. The drill adaptor uses a cable and winch system that can also be exchanged for a rack and pinion system to complete the vertically up and down movements of the drill attachment. This drill adaptor allows for an efficient and compact means of drilling large diameter holes in un-level drilling surface within the earth.

Horizontal Directional Drill Rig Heating System

A horizontal direction drill rig heating system for efficiently keeping the drill carriage frame and other major components that are crucial for the drilling process free of snow and ice buildup during freezing conditions. The horizontal directional drill rig heating system includes a horizontal directional drill rig manufactured from structural tubing, a working fluid reservoir, a pump, an inverter, a heater, on/off valves, hoses, and multiple heating circuits on the horizontal directional drill rig to heat the entire horizontal directional drill rig during freezing conditions.

Apparatus and method for non-occluded active noise shaping

Non-occluding active noise suppression apparatus and methods are disclosed. A housing includes an inlet to admit ambient sound and an outlet to output personal sound to the ear of a user. An acoustic path and an electronic path are provided from the inlet to the outlet within the housing. For a predetermined frequency range, a phase difference between the acoustic path and the electronic path is substantially 180 degrees.

Core Barrel Stabilizer

A core barrel stabilizer that offers a simple solution in creating an initial drilling kerf in conjunction with a hollow core barrel for drilling large diameter holes into the earth for a plethora of construction needs. The core barrel stabilizer includes a centering rod for keeping the core barrel stabilizer and hollow core barrel centered during drilling the initial perimeter kerf, an eyelet hook for easily maneuvering the core barrel stabilizer between drill holes and transportation, and an inner barrel used to rest the inner wall of the hollow core barrel against during drilling to ensure the drilling kerf can be started.

Automatic burst firing gun having revolving chambers

An automatic, burst-firing howitzer is provided having a single tube or gun barrel, and two alternatively and sequentially utilized firing chambers which reciprocate with the tube in recoil and counterrecoil. A loading system is provided to load rounds of ammunition sequentially into the next respective firing chamber during recoil, and to extract the previously fired case from the preceding firing chamber during counterrecoil. The loading system includes a floating, double-ended, spring- and gas-loaded, hydraulic piston system for continuously monitoring the recoil velocity of the recoiling mass and for traversing the round at the appropriate velocity and for the appropriate distance to fully chamber the round by the end of the recoil travel. Depending on the recoil travel the gun can fire out of battery, or in battery.

Well Casing Perforator Tool

A perforator tool that offers a simple solution to create multiple perforations at different lengths and locations inside a well casing. The perforator tool includes a tool housing that holds all of the components together along with providing a means of connecting the perforator tool to the drill pipe, and a means of transferring pressurized fluid from the drill pipe to use to engage the knife into the well casing, a knife that is used to create the perforation puncture(s) inside the well casing, a pin to hold and allow the knife to pivot inside the tool housing, and a spring connected to a set screw to be able to adjust the spring force to disengage the knife from the well casing.

Joystick

The present invention relates to a joystick. The joystick comprises a lever (45) mounted to a base by a pivot, the base having one or more position sensors (39) for sensing a position of the lever relative to the base, the lever having a longitudinal length extending between the pivot and a distal end (47). An input shaft (3) is pivotally mounted to a support (1), the input shaft having a longitudinal length extending between a first end having an input portion (5) for receiving a user input and a second end (49), the second end cooperating with the distal end of the lever such that pivoting of the input shaft relative to the support causes pivoting of the lever relative to the base.

Input shaft 3 is pivotally mounted to a support, the input shaft having a longitudinal length extending between a first end having input portion 5 for receiving a user input and a second end, the second end cooperating with the distal end of the lever such that pivoting of the input shaft relative to the support causes pivoting of the lever relative to the base. The input shaft may pivot relative to the support at a position vertically above the pivot about which the lever pivots relative to the base. The pivot may enable pivoting around multiple axes. The distal end of the lever may receive or be received by the second end of the input shaft.

Method and system for pairing a remote control transmitter and receiver

A method and system for pairing a remote control transmitter and receiver includes associating an identification (ID) code with the transmitter. The transmitter includes a light generator for generating a light signal in order to perform a primary function which is visually detectable by a human operator. The light generator may be a laser pointer or a status indicator LED. The light generator is modulated to encode the identification code onto the light signal while the light generator is performing the primary function. The receiver includes a light signal detector such as an LED for receiving the light signal from the light generator. The receiver associates itself with the ID code contained in the light signal in order to pair the receiver with the transmitter. By being paired with the transmitter, the receiver acts upon transmitted command signals received from the transmitter.
