A method of running a tubular string into a wellbore comprises running a bore-lining tubular string into a wellbore substantially without rotation, while rotating a cutting structure at a distal leading end of the tubular string. Other methods provide for rotation of the string and the provision of a non-rotating stabiliser towards the leading end of the string.

A nozzle-typed drag-reducing structure for vehicle is arranged at the tail end of a vehicle, including a frame body comprised of a combination of a plurality of deflectors, between two of which an airflow channel is formed; and an air inlet and an air outlet respectively formed at two sides of the frame body, and the area comprised by surrounding the air outlet is larger than the area comprised by surrounding the air inlet. Thereby, whenever the vehicle is driven in high speed or low speed, it is all possible to boost the running efficiency and increase the driving stability.

This invention relates to process sequence by high-speed atomic layer chemical vapor processing that includes deposition for diffusion barriers in the etched features on substrate followed by gap fill and subsequent in-situ removal of the blanket films on the top by plasma enhanced vapor phase processes. The apparatus and process sequences employed in these processing scheme allows the practitioner to complete all vapor phase process sequences of diffusion barrier deposition, gap fill and planarization of copper and diffusion barrier planarization. In case of copper metallization scheme, vapor phase gap fill can be employed to replace electrochemical deposition of copper and removal of copper and the diffusion barrier by vapor phase reactions can replace chemical-mechanical-polishing. Furthermore, such a processing scheme can be employed to deposit gate level dielectric layer, shallow trench isolation and also to form first metal contact plugs with a suitable barrier at the front end of line processing.

A tractor has hydraulically driven wheels at a cab end and castor wheels at an engine end. It can be driven cab forward in a working mode with a header on the forward end. It is rotated to engine forward in the transport position for more stable higher speed travel. The driver's console is rotated in the cab with the steering and speed control elements moved with the seat for the driver to face forwards and its position is detected by switches. In the engine forward position for transportation, the control system detects the seat position and operates the controls for higher speed drive and to prevent operation of the header. The engine has a series of ratings which can be selected depending upon whether the header motor is engaged so that a highest engine speed is used only when the header is disengaged and the lower speed is used for higher fuel efficiency when the header is operating.

The invention relates to a link chain for scraper chain conveyors with vertical chain links which are interlinked in an articulated manner and horizontal chain links, wherein vertical chain links have around the full circumference a constant cross-sectional profile provided on the outside with a flat section and on the inside with a circular arc and horizontal chain links have front sections which have a straight front zone, wherein longitudinal limbs, which connect front sections, of horizontal chain links are provided on their outer faces with a recess. In order to improve the running characteristics of link chain in the event of low surface pressures between chain wheel and horizontal chain links, horizontal chain links have, on both sides in recesses, entrainment means for positive-locking entrainment of scrapers which can be connected to horizontal chain links and / or cross-sectional profile of the vertical chain links is in each case provided with a bevel at the transition of the flat section into the circular arc. The invention also relates to a chain wheel which is suitable for this chain.

A gaming machine has a first gaming device component and a second display device component and is particularly suited to presentation of wagering games. The gaming device is a first housing with associated player input devices and a game controller. The display device has a second housing with at least one game information display. The display device may be mounted to the gaming device to create a unitary device, or it may be mounted or set apart from the gaming device. The display device may also be connected to the gaming device in a number of orientations to create different gaming machine configurations. The display device also supports various display configurations, such as video displays and spinning reels.

Sap flow sensor apparatus and concomitant methodology for determining the sap flow within plant stems of herbaceous plants and trees using a simplified Stem Heat Balance methodology. Optimum irrigation and utilization of beneficial plant health statistics are enabled using a sap flow sensor apparatus configured with a flexible, sealed sensor layer and multi-layered insulation including an elastic hook-and-loop attachment for enclosing the flexible, sealed sensor layer, soft-foam insulation, a waterproof membrane cloth permeable to water vapor and impermeable to water drops, and an outermost reflective barrier. Based upon the calculations derived from the simplified Stem Heat Balance formula, embodiments afford operational and economic efficiencies due to reduction of the prerequisite electronics to a 1-Channel dT signal.
