First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1 . A penetrator for a Puncture Communication Tool comprising: a base; a body extending from the base and terminating at a tip; and a fluid bypass disposed in the body. 2 . A penetrator as claimed in claim 1 wherein the fluid bypass is a narrowed neck of the body. 3 . A penetrator as claimed in claim 1 wherein the body is hourglass shaped. 4 . A penetrator as claimed in claim 1 wherein the fluid bypass is one or more recesses in the body. 5 . A penetrator as claimed in claim 1 wherein the recess is positioned in the side of the body. 6 . A penetrator as claimed in claim 1 wherein the recess extends to the tip. 7 . A penetrator as claimed in claim 1 wherein the fluid bypass includes one or more passageways extending from the tip toward the base and intersecting one or more cross passageways extending from a side of the body. 8 . A penetrator as claimed in claim 7 wherein the one or more passageways are one or more of coaxial and non-coaxial with the body. 9 . A penetrator as claimed in claim 7 wherein the one or more cross passageways are orthogonally positioned relative to the body. 10 . A penetrator as claimed in claim 1 wherein the fluid bypass is one or more through bores extending from the tip to the base. 11 . A penetrator as claimed in claim 10 wherein the one or more through bores are one or more of coaxial and non-coaxial with the body. 12 . A penetrator as claimed in claim 1 wherein one or more of the one or more through bores are parallel. 13 . A method for communicating a hydraulic chamber comprising: urging a penetrator through a wall of a hydraulic chamber to penetrate into the hydraulic chamber; registering a pressure change in the hydraulic chamber without retracting the penetrator. 14 . A method as claimed in claim 13 wherein fluid flow causing the pressure change flows through a fluid bypass of the penetrator. 15 . A method as claimed in claim 14 wherein the fluid bypass is one or more recesses. 16 A method as claimed in claim 13 wherein the fluid bypass is one or more through bores. 17 . A method as claimed in claim 13 wherein the fluid bypass is one or more passageways and cross passageways. 18 . A method as claimed in claim 13 wherein the fluid bypass is a narrower neck portion of a body of the penetrator.
