Patent CA-2449641-C (CA)
Title: Collier d'accrochage de robinet a douchette escamotable a force de retenue accrue
Inventor: MALEK MICHAEL L
IPC: B05B1/22
Filed: 2003-11-17
Granted: 2010-04-20
Abstract: Un robinet est muni d'un bec et d'une douchette escamotable raccordée au tube flexible d'arrivée d'eau et qui peut être raccordée au bec de façon amovible. Le bec est muni d'un collier d'accrochage monté pour recevoir un arbre de raccordement de la douchette. Le colllier d'accrochage possède une paroi annulaire et une pluralité de fentes en U qui définissent une pluralité de doigts d'enclenchement en saillie. Chaque doigt d'enclenchement comporte une saillie qui s'adapte dans une rainure de l'arbre de raccordement de la douchette lorsque celle-ci est accrochée. Un joint torique en élastomère entoure la paroi annulaire en un point où le joint torique s'engage dans les doigts d'enclenchement pour les incliner vers la rainure. Des crêtes sur la surface extérieure de la paroi retiennent le joint torique en place. Le bec et la douchette comprennent des épaulements parallèles qui définissent un plan de contact. Les saillies et la rainure définissent un plan de retenue. Le plan de contact n'est pas parallèle au plan de retenue de sorte que la rotation de la douchette autour d'un axe normal au plan de contact fait que les saillies se dégagent de la rainure.

Title: Fuel cell fluid flow field plates
Inventor: HOOD PETER DAVID
IPC: H01M8/02
Filed: 2002-10-03
Granted: 2010-11-30
Abstract: A bipolar fluid flow flied plate for a fuel cell delivers fuel to a porous anode electrode and oxidant to an adjacent porous cathode electrode. The flow field plate comprises an electrically conductive, non-porous sheet into which fluid flow conduits are formed. A first fluid flow channel is patterned into a first face of the sheet and a second fluid flow channel patterned into the opposite face of the sheet. The pattern of the first channel comprises an interdigitated comb that co-operates with a pattern of the second channel comprising a continous serpentine path, so that no portion of the first channel directly overlies the pattern of the second channel over a substantial active area of the sheet. This allows the channels to be formed with combined depths that exceed the total plate thickness, thereby increasing fluid flow volumes.

Granted: 2012-07-24
Abstract: Second digital information serving as copyright protection information can be stably and reliably read without any effect of a defect or pit missing on a disk-shaped recording medium.     Second digital information is recorded onto a disk-shaped recording medium by wobbling a pit sequence recorded as a first signal. The second digital information is recorded so that a plurality of bits constituting the second digital information are allocated in a unit period of an identical sync signal contained in the first signal. During playback, the plurality of bits constituting the recorded second digital information are read a plurality of times every unit period of the sync signal, and information of the read bits is then integrated. Thus, information from a large number of wobbled pits across unit periods of a plurality of sync signals can be integrated to determine the bit values.

Title: One-way valve device
Inventor: MIJERS JAN WILLEM MARINUS
IPC: A61M5/36
Filed: 2003-04-17
Granted: 2010-07-06
Abstract: The invention relates to a one-way valve device (1), in particular a low-pressure non-return valve for use with infusion equipment. Said device consists of a housing (2, 3) comprising a supply tube (5) and a drain tube (14), in addition to at least one seal (4) that is enclosed in a pressure chamber (12). To prevent the admission of air into the infusion liquid circuit, the flow is interrupted by a static negative pressure prevailing on the supply tube (5) and/or drain tube (14) or by an excess pressure on the drain tube (14). This reliably guarantees that the infusion liquid only circulates if there is a static excess pressure on the supply tube.

Title: Weighted trowel with elongated handle
Inventor: GOLLER HERBERT
IPC: B25G3/36
Filed: 2004-12-30
Granted: 2013-07-09
Abstract: Several embodiments of trowels which have an elongated handle and a pair of generally facing weights or a weight or weights and a connector between which a pair of blades are secured with one blade being of lesser height than the other to thereby resist undesired flexing of the other blade. In another embodiment, in lieu of having a second blade, a second weight which is disposed on the opposite side of the blade from the handle, has a downward extension which limits flexing of the blade. In a further embodiment, a blade is a two component blade and has a detachable and replaceable cutting edge. The weights and connector serve a multiple purpose of securing the upper end of the blades therebetween, facilitating downward pressure when the trowel is in use and in some embodiments through either a second blade or an extension of a weight for limiting the amount of flexing of the blade.

Abstract: L'invention concerne une tige d'article chaussant qui comprend un textile ayant des filaments ou des fibres thermofusibles. Le textile est intégré à la tige et des zones spécifiques de la tige sont chauffées de sorte que les filaments ou fibres thermofusibles fusionnent avec d'autres filaments ou fibres afin de former des zones thermofixées. Comparées aux zones non thermofixées de la tige, les zones thermofixées peuvent conférer des propriétés améliorées telles que la résistance à l'étirement, la stabilité, le soutien, la résistance à l'abrasion, la durabilité et la rigidité. En outre, les zones thermofixées assurent généralement une perméabilité à l'air sans accroître de manière importante le poids de l'article chaussant.

Abstract: A decoupler (22) is provided for transferring rotary movement between an engine driven crankshaft (16) and a serpentine belt (20). The decoupler (22) has a rotary driving member (18, 36) and a rotary driven member (36, 18) coaxially mounted with the driving member for relative rotary movement therewith. A decoupling assembly (19) extends between the driving member (18, 36) and the driven member (36, 18). The decoupling assembly (19) selectively couples the driving and driven members (18, 36) when the driving member rotates relative to the driven member in a first coupling sense. The decoupling assembly (19) uncouples the driving member from the driven member when the driving member rotates relative to the driven member in a second sense opposite the first sense. A torsional vibration damper (80) is mounted for rotation with one of the driving and driven members (18, 36) to cancel some of the vibrations generated by the engine.

Title: Lading tie anchor link with enhanced banding contact surface
Inventor: EARLY DAVID R
IPC: B61D45/00
Filed: 2005-11-09
Granted: 2010-01-12
Abstract: A two-piece anchor assembly has a retainer and an interlocking link. The link is a unitary component that is formed by a single forging step. The link is secured to the floor of a railway flatcar by the retainer. A steel band is connected at one end to a load bearing surface of the link of a first anchor assembly and at another end to a load bearing surface of the link of a second anchor assembly. A tensile force is then applied to the steel banding and crimped with a clip in order to secure cargo. The load bearing surface has an enhanced banding radius, which reduces the risk of band breakage when the steel band is subjected to a high tensile force by preventing "creasing" at contact locations.
