A valve system for use in inflating packers mounted on mandrels. The valve system uses one or more valves to permit, through the use of seals, the flow of fluid from the interior of a tubular mandrel to the interior of the inflatable packer when pressure applied in the mandrel exceeds at least a minimum pressure. The differential pressure across reciprocating seals is minimized through exposure of one or both sides, directly or indirectly, to the external pressure of the mandrel and packer, the exposure including the use of a check valve to permit flow from the exterior of the mandrel.

A downhole injector and is provided at the lower end of the production tubing string TS for passing liquids from a downhole formation into the tubing string while preventing gases from passing through the injector. The injector of the present invention may be used with one or more lift valves LV for raising slugs of liquid upward to the surface through the production tubing string. The present invention may also be used with horizontal bore hole technology for increased hydrocarbon recovery by retaining the gases downhole to act upon liquid hydrocarbons and maintaining a driven force for pushing the liquids toward the injector for recovery. The injector may be used to enhance recovery of liquids at the surface of a well.

A downhole injector 10, 26, 38 and 54 is provided at the lower end of the production tubing string TS for passing liquids from a downhole formation into the tubing string while preventing gases from passing through the injector. The injector may include an improved screen 36 for preventing formation sand from entering the injector. The system may include a packer 44 in the annulus A above the injector. In one application, a vent tube 46 extends upward from the packer into the annulus for maintaining a desired liquid level in the annulus above the packer. A plurality of through ports 40 establish fluid communication in the annulus above the packer and the production tubing string so that a downhole pump P may efficiently pump downhole fluids to the surface. The injector of the present invention may be used with one or more lift valves LV for raising slugs of liquid upward to the surface through the production tubing string. The present invention may also be used with horizontal bore hole technology for increased hydrocarbon recovery by retaining the gases downhole to act upon liquid hydrocarbons and maintaining a driving force for pushing the liquids toward the injector for recovery.

A bowl and cutting board combination has a bowl member configured to removably receive and support a cutting board member at its upper end and when supported on the bowl member is used for cutting or preparing foods placed thereon, and thereafter the cutting board is removed and used to transfer the foods thereon which have been cut or prepared into the bowl member. The cutting board member serves as a cutting surface, a food preparation surface, and a handling surface, and the bowl member serves as the support for the cutting board member and as a container for receiving the foods which have been cut or prepared on the cutting board member. The cutting board member optionally serves as a lid for the bowl member to cover the contents of the bowl, before or after cutting or preparation. In another embodiment, the cutting board member is removably received and supported in the top end of an open ended funnel member which is supported on a serving bowl or on a stand above the serving bowl wherein the funnel member serves as the support for the cutting board member and to direct foods into the serving bowl member. The combination may also be used for non-food purposes wherein various materials are contained or stored in the bowl-shaped container and the planar board serves as a lid and as a utility working surface for working with materials stored in the bowl-shaped container.
