READING DEVICE FOR WELL SURVEY RECORDS Filed April 28, 1937 airman;
Patented Sept. 6, 1938 UNITED STATES PATENT oFFicE READING DEVICE FOR WELL SURVEY RECORDS aware Application April 28, 1937, Serial No. 139,553
11 Claims.
This invention relates to devices for reading well survey records, and among the objects of my invention are:
First, to provide a device of this character which is particularly designed to assist'in the reading of photograph record discs obtained from Well survey apparatus, such as describedin my copending application, Serial No. 35,183, filed August 7, 1935.
Second, to provide a reading device for survey record discs whereby the inclination and direction of a well bore recorded on such record disc may be conveniently and accurately interpreted;
Third, to provide a device of this character which receives a circular flat record disc bearing indicia; indicating a plane of inclination in relation to other indicia indicating a plane of direction, said device incorporating means whereby known magnetic deflections of the directionindicating indicia may be compensated for and the true azimuth of the inclination indicia obtained;
Fourth, to provide a device of this character which may be readily carried on the person so that it may be available in the field to interpret well bore record discs;
Fifth, to provide a device of this character adapted to operate in conjunction with a record disc bearing code indicia designed to prevent interpretation of. the record disc without use of the reading device, thereby preventing unauthorized knowledge of the information occurring on the record disc.
With the foregoing and other objects in view, as may hereinafter appear, reference is made to the accompanying drawing, in which:
Figure 1 is an enlarged plan view of my reading device with a record disc shown in position, and parts and portions of the disc and reading device broken away to facilitate the illustration;
Figure 2 is a transverse sectional view through the reading device and disc, taken along the line 2--2 of Figure 1;
\ gigure 3 is a plan view of the record disc alone; an
Figure 4 is a similar plan view of a record disc 'an annulus l1 and screws l8.
screws 1 extending up through arcuate slots 8 provided in the base i, so that the inner ring may be adjusted and secured angularly with respect to the outer ring. The outer periphery of the inner ring 5 abuts the inner periphery of the outer ring 4 and is provided with an aperture equal in diameter to the bore of the bearing 3.
The outer ring, which may be called the scale ring, is provided around its periphery with a degree or compass scale 9 (shown fragmentarily in Figure 1) with the characters N, E, W and S, indicating the cardinal points of the compass. As disclosed in the above mentioned copending application, the survey record is 180 degrees out of phase with a true compass bearing, for when the inclination is toward the north the plumb bob hangs toward the south. Consequently, the scale 9 is correspondingly shifted, and the portions of the east and west indicia appear interchanged. I
a The inner ring, which may be termed the dummy compass ring, is provided with indicia H) which may be representative of a compass needle interpreted by the central aperture of the ring 5.
I This indicia is positioned diametrically and is preferably black, except for a diametrically extending line H. In addition, the end representing north may be provided with a cross bar l2 which corresponds to the marking on the record disc, as will be brought out hereinafter. The dummy compass disc is adjusted so that the hair line I I is arcuately displaced equal to the declination of a magnetic compass for the region in which the device is to be used, and there secured by screws 1; for example, the drawing illustrates a declination of approximately sixteen degrees east of north.
The periphery of therim 2' is recessed at its upper portion to receive an annular band l3. Behind the band l3 the rim 2 is provided with an annular channel l4 into which extend one or more set screws l5, secured in the band l3 so as to retain the band in place but permit its rotation. The upper edge of the band I3 is substantially flush with the surface of the rings 4 and 5, over which is fitted a fiat, transparent dial plate l6 which is clamped to the band I3 by means of. The dial plate is provided on its underside with a single radially extending hair line H). I
The bearing l3 receives a record disc holder 20 which journals snugly therein. The upper end of the holder 20 is recessed to receivea fiat record disc 2|. The record disc 2| comprises a body portion, the upper surface of which has previously been sensitized and upon which has been photographed a plurality of concentric ring markings 22, a compass needle image 23 and a cross hair image 24 from a plumb bob or other inclinometer, all of which is obtained as more fully disclosed in my copending application referred to hereinbefore. The periphery of the disc is preferably reinforced by a metal rim 25. The concentric rings 22 indicate degrees of indication from the vertical, and in the drawings the rings have a range of five degrees. Of course, the rings may be arranged to indicate a larger or lesser number of degrees.
To facilitate the ejection of the record disc, the holder 20 is equipped with a plunger 26 set in a socket formed within the disc-receiving recess. A plunger stem 21, in the form of a screw, extends through the holder 20 with its head 28 exposed to the underside of the holder so that -it may be engaged by ones thumb. The stem 21 may be locked in place by a set screw 29 screw-threaded from the upper side of the plunger 26. It is preferred to recess the underside of the holder 20 so that the stem 21 does not protrude beyond the lower face of the holder.
The holder is yieldably retained in the bearing 3 by means of a ball keeper 30 backed by a spring 3| and adapted to engage an annular groove 32 in the side of the holder 20. The ball keeper and spring are preferably mounted within a socket formed within a retainer 33 adapted to be screw-threaded laterally into the bearing 3.
Operation of the reading device is as follows: The record disc 2|, after being taken from a surveying instrument and developed, is placed in the upper end of the holder 20 and the holder inserted in the bearing 3. Thereupon, the holder is turned until the axes of the compass needle image 23 coincides with the dummy compass indicia [0, as shown in Figure 1. This may be accomplished with the aid of the radial hair line I9 by turning the dial plate 16 so that it functions as a reference line for the axis of the dummy compass and compass image. Thereupon, with the record disc remaining in such position, the dial plate 16 is turned until the hair line l9 traverses the intersection of the cross hair image 24. Reading in terms of true bearing is then taken on the scale 9.
In Figure 1 the dummy compass is shown as occupying a declination of approximately sixteen degrees east of north. The compass image of the record disc is turned so that it, likewise, indicates a declination of sixteen degrees east of north. Thereupon, it is found, when aligning radially the intersection of the cross hair image 24 with the center of the disc and the scale 9, that the direction of inclination of said cross hair image is three degrees west of south. By
. counting the number of circles 22 from the center of the record disc to the cross hair image 24, it is found that the inclination from vertical is slightly over four degrees.
It is sometimes desirable that the information obtained by the record discs be held confidential. Therefore, a special record disc 34 is employed which is provided with code markings 36 in the form of radial photographic lines obtained by a special card mounted on and masking the survey compass, but bears the cross hair image 24 of the plumb bob, as in the first described record disc.
The inner ring is inscribed with radial lines 31 corresponding to the radial image lines 36,
so that when the record disc 34 is inserted, the lines 36 and 31 may be brought into registry, whereupon the azimuth of the cross hair image 24 may be obtained. In order to read the inclination from vertical of the cross hair image 1 24, concentric circles corresponding to the inclination circles 22 may be inscribed on the underside oi the dial plate l6.
Thus, without knowing the relationship that the lines 36 bear to the compass needle and the scale employed for the inclination rings on the record disc, it is impossible to interpret the record disc without the use of the reading device and the record may, if desired, be kept in strictest confidence.
By providing extra screw holes in the inner ring 5 for accommodating screws 1, the ring may be adjusted to any angular position relative to the outer ring 4. This is particularly desirable when employing the code markings 31, as this afiords a simple means of changing the code employed on the compass code mask employed in the surveying instrument and the reading device.
Though I have shown and described particular embodiments of my invention, I do not wish to be limited thereto, but desire to include in the scope of my invention the constructions, combinations and arrangements substantially as embraced in the appended claims.
