Inventor: TOHKALA ANTTI
IPC: B27L11/00
Filed: 1998-07-20
Abstract: A method and a feeding chute for feeding logs (10) into a disc chipper by means of the gravity. The logs (10) are supported laterally by means of adjacent bottom portions (31, 32) of the chute (3) and shoulders between those. The logs are turned parallel with the longitudinal direction of the chute by means of a moment (M) which occurs when the direction of the main axis (27) of the ellipse forming the shearing surface of the log deviates from the direction (27') perpendicular to a the direct line (30) drawn via the rotating centre (28) of the blade disc and the centre (29) of the ellipse. The bottom portions (31, 32) of the chute are inclined around a longitudinal axis in such a way that from two adjacent bottom portions of the chute, the one (31) further away from the rotating axis of the disc forms a bigger angle (.beta.') with respect to the horizontal plane than the angle (.beta.") formed by the portion (32) closer to the rotating axis.

Title: Metering incoming deliverable mail
Inventor: SANSONE RONALD P
IPC: G07B17/00
Filed: 1998-09-04
Abstract: A system in which originating mail processors would upload pertinent mail piece information on addressees, pointers or other identifiers automatically and periodically to a data center. The recipient addressee of the mail piece would temporarily configure his digital postage meter or mail processor as a mail receiver so that the postage meter or mail processor would read the digital indicia that was affixed to the currently delivered incoming mail. The incoming mail would be date/time stamped, opened (optionally) and the unique identifier that was placed in the postal indicia would be read. The recipient meter or mail processor would periodically upload to the data center raw data on the unique identifiers or codes that have been received. If, the received unique identifiers or codes match with the sender unique identifiers or codes in a reasonable amount of time, as would normally be the case, the sent and received codes cancel out, or are kept for statistical information on delivery times, etc. Non-matched codes could be flagged and reported to the originator for further investigation. Thus, the data center may be able to locate mis-sent or mis-routed mail and automatically feed back information on undelivered or undeliverable mail.

Patent CA-2253351-A1 (CA)
Inventor: DIRITO ANTHONY R
IPC: A01K97/12
Filed: 1997-04-28
Abstract: The present invention is a device for detecting the movement of a fish on a fishing line, which comes in two parts: a detecting and transmitting device (10) which can be attached to a fishing rod, and a receiving device (10) which also functions as a storage box. Movement of the fishing line is detected using a piezoelectric crystal or other sensing device. There is a rotatable control (34) for adjusting the sensitivity of the device. The sensing device produces an electric signal which is processed by electronic circuits, encoded, and transmitted as radio waves. The radio waves are received by the receiving device, converted back into an electric signal and decoded. When an appropriate signal is received, either a buzzer (64) or a vibrator (66) is activated to alert the user that a fish is on the line. A toggle switch (58) enables the user to choose whether the buzzer or the vibrator will be activated.

Inventor: ZHOU WILLIAM WEI
IPC: H03F1/32
Filed: 1999-06-21
Abstract: A pilot adjusting system adjusts the power level of the pilot relative to the power level of the input signal. For example, the pilot adjusting system detects the power level of the input signal on the signal path leading to an RF amplifier.  In response to the power level of the input signal, the pilot adjusting system adjusts the power level of the pilot signal which is injected into the signal path prior to the RF amplifier. In certain embodiments, the pilot adjuster adjusts the pilot power level to maintain a desired input signal to pilot signal ratio at the input to the RF  amplifier for the input signal range of the RF amplifier. As such, if the input signal power level drops 30dB, the pilot adjuster reduces the power level of the pilot signal by 30dB, thereby maintaining the input signal to pilot ratio throughout the input range of the RF amplifier. Other parameters of the pilot signal can be adjusted relative to other parameters for the input signal prior to the pilot signal being injected into the main signal path prior to the RF amplifier.
Patent CA-2276160-A1 (CA)
Title: Products of and methods for improving adhesion between substrate and polymer layers
Inventor: PATRICK RODNEY LANE
IPC: D06M15/70
Filed: 1999-06-22
Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for improving both adhesion between substrate and polymer layers and the durability of such composite structures; while maintaining the malleability and preferred characteristics of the original substrate. Quite unexpectedly, the application of a layer or film upon an uncured, encapsulated base substrate which has been encapsulated by the shear thinning methods of the present invention, results in superior adhesion of multiple layers when compared to conventional layering, coating or composite manufacturing methods. Moreover, the uncured or at most, semi-cured, polymer composition applied to the base substrate ensures that the substrate maintains maximum flexibility for subsequent shaping into composite articles prior to curing. The methods described herein produce multiple layer composite articles that are lighter, stronger, more flexible and utilize less material, than composite articles produced by conventional techniques. The method comprises applying an uncured, substantially solvent free, polymer composition exhibiting thixotropic or pseudoplastic characteristics, onto a base substrate having structural elements and interstices therebetween; shear thinning the polymer composition to place it into the base substrate, thereby encapsulating most of the structural elements while leaving a plurality of interstitial spaces open; overlaying a layer or film of polymer or thermoplastic material to at least one surface of the uncured encapsulated base substrate; pressuring the layer or film into the interstices of the uncured encapsulated base substrate to form a chemical and mechanical interlocking bond between the polymer composition of the base substrate and the overlay material; optionally shaping the multi layer composite and curing the completed composite. This method produces multi layer composite articles and medical garments exhibiting increased adhesion and durability with excellent malleability and flexibility over conventional methods.

Title: Mechanism for integration of management functionality in communications networks
Inventor: BRAGG NIGEL LAWRENCE
IPC: H04L12/24
Filed: 1999-06-15
Abstract: There is presented a method for integrating management functionality in communications networks by virtue of a design model for constructing a management information base in a communications network management system. A unit of manageable physical resources is represented in the management information base by a management unit. The management unit comprises a collection of managed objects representing actual physical and logical resources in the communications network, the managed objects arranged such that functionality provided by the physical and logical resources is represented separately and independently from the actual physical and logical resources themselves, in the particular way in which those resources are implemented. A unit of manageable functionality and resources is represented in the management information base by a management unit. A management unit comprises an Application Model, which represents functionality of those resources, and an Implementation Model, which represents the actual specific implementation of how that functionality is carried out. The Application Model and Implementation Model are related to each other by a set of associations, presented in the disclosure, termed "realisation associations". A collection of realisation associations which link an Application Model to an implementation form a realisation model. Division and representation of physical and logical resources in the management information base by the management unit method may enable substitution of physical and logical resources by different implementations of similar resource components without requiring re-configuration of parts of the management information base which represent the functionality provided by those physical resources. Greater reuse of design and development effort may be achieved by configuring the management information base in the method disclosed, and easier maintenance and replaceability of physical and logical components may be achieved.
