Hydraulic pumping system with enhanced piston rod sealing

A system can include an actuator with a piston rod that displaces in response to pressure in the actuator, a seal assembly that seals about the piston rod and includes seal cartridges, each including a dynamic seal sealingly engaging the rod, and each including a static seal sealingly engaging a seal assembly housing, and a port providing communication between a housing exterior and a housing interior between adjacent static seals. A method can include preventing leakage from a well with a seal assembly about a piston rod of a hydraulic actuator, the seal assembly including seal cartridges, each including a dynamic seal that sealingly engages the rod, and each including a static seal that sealingly engages a seal assembly housing, enabling communication through a housing sidewall to a housing interior between adjacent static seals, and reciprocably displacing the rod in response to pressure variations in the actuator.

METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CLEANING SUBSTRATES USING HIGH TEMPERATURE CHEMICALS AND ULTRASONIC DEVICE

The present invention provides a high temperature chemical solution supply system for cleaning substrates. The system includes a solution tank, a buffer tank, a first pump and a second pump. The solution tank contains high temperature chemical solution. The buffer tank has a tank body, a vent line and a needle valve. The tank body contains the high temperature chemical solution. An end of the vent line connects to the tank body, and the other end of the vent line connects to the solution tank. The needle valve is mounted on the vent line, wherein the needle valve is adjusted to reach a flow rate to vent gas bubbles inside of the high temperature chemical solution out of the buffer tank through the vent line. An inlet of the first pump connects to the solution tank, and an outlet of the first pump connects to the buffer tank. An inlet of the second pump connects to the buffer tank, and an outlet of the second pump connects to a cleaning chamber in which a substrate is cleaned. The present invention also provides an apparatus including the high temperature chemical solution supply system and an ultra or mega sonic device for cleaning the substrate. The present invention also provides methods for cleaning the substrates.

System for reducing vibrations in a pressure pumping fleet
10119381 · 2018-11-06 · ·

An electrically powered hydraulic fracturing system having pumps for pressurizing fracturing fluid, piping for carrying fracturing fluid, and vibration reducing equipment for use with the piping. The vibration reducing equipment includes helical coils that support the piping. The coils are made of a wire rope made of strands of steel cable twisted together. Grooved fittings are provided on some piping connections, and which allow pivoting between adjacent fluid conveyance members. Swivel joints are strategically located in the piping which allow rotational flexing between adjacent sections of the piping; thereby attenuating vibration in the piping but without stressing the piping.

Pulsation damping system
10100855 · 2018-10-16 · ·

The present invention relates to a pulsation damping system for a paint spray device for spraying paint including a pulsation damper for damping the pulsation of a paint stream, wherein the pulsation damper includes a housing, a chamber, a chamber inlet, a chamber outlet and a damping means. In this connection, an opening of the chamber outlet comprises a cross sectional area which is smaller than a cross sectional area of an opening of the chamber inlet, and as a result forms a throttle.
