Patent CA-2603563-A1 (CA)
Inventor: PHELPS STEPHEN C
IPC: B01D21/02
Filed: 2007-09-21
Abstract: A liquid purification and separation apparatus for separation of pollutants in stormwater runoff is disclosed. This apparatus utilizes gravitational separation and tortuosity, resulting from a plurality of baffles both perpendicular to and oblique to the primary water flow direction, to trap substances less-dense and more-dense than water. The apparatus features improved resistance to pollutant remobilization through treatment of water volume rather than flow rates, using vertically stacked water columns of varying depths to settle small particles. An overflow structure diverts excessive liquid without interfering with purification and separation, and can be placed integrally within or external to the apparatus receptacle.

IPC: A01K1/10
Filed: 2006-06-26
Abstract: A system and method are provided which allows for brood gates in feeders to be completely open upon the introduction of a flock of poultry thereto in order to present a high feed level within a pan member, and then to be automatically controlled to incrementally change the size and position of the brood gate to lower the feed level within a pan member over time as the birds grow. The system includes an electronic controller which is preprogrammed to set different positions at which the brood gate should be at different times.  Software within the electronic controller implements changes of the position of the brood gate at the appropriate times by sending signals to an actuator which is connected to the feeders. Movement of the actuator causes the changing of size and position of the brood gates.

Title: Radially expanding turbine engine exhaust cylinder interface
Inventor: GUINAN DAN
IPC: F01D25/24
Filed: 2006-04-05
Abstract: Aspects of the invention are directed to an interface (10) between an exhaust cylinder (20) and an exhaust diffuser (22) in a turbine engine. The interface (10) allows relative radial movement of the exhaust diffuser (22) and the exhaust cylinder (20). According to aspects of the invention, the diffuser (22) and the cylinder (20) are operatively connected about their peripheries by a plurality of connecting members, which can be tie rods (40). Each connecting member can be pivotally connected at a first end (42) to a joint bolt (80) affixed to the exhaust cylinder (20) and at a second end (44) to an exhaust diffuser (22). Thus, the connecting members can join the cylinder (20) and the diffuser (22) in the axial direction, while allowing for the differential thermal expansion of the two components. Relative circumferential movement between the cylinder (20) and the diffuser (22) can be reduced by positioning neighboring connecting members at opposing angles in relation to one another.

Inventor: HASSMAN ERIC
IPC: G06Q10/00
Filed: 2006-08-11
Abstract: A method for optimizing database coordination and supply chain efficiency, as shown in figure 2, coordinates inventory database outlet branding requirements, and customer information among at least outlets and suppliers, to enable outlets to offer for sale products not held in their own inventory, and ensures that such products are delivered directly to the customer in accordance w that outlet's branding requirements. A provider can aggregate supplier databases and outlet orders to more efficiently and profitably coordinate inventory distribution. Branding templates and requirements are provisioned to permit custom packaging on demand. Distributing the burden of packaging, shipping, and warehousing more optimally exhausts inventory of a common supplier by aggregating requests from multiple outlets, while concomitantly providing custom branded packaging on behalf of each outlet.  Optimization and efficiency is further achieved by dynamically distributing updatable status indicators wit the supply chain, which can be reflected by the contents of webpages and other catalogs.

Title: Multiple target detection and application state navigation system
Inventor: HARVEY BRANDON L
IPC: G06F3/0488
Filed: 2006-11-17
Abstract: Complex collaboration or decision support applications perform complex desig n or planning tasks, often with the input of large groups of people over long periods of time. The combination of time and complexity often obscures past actions, making it difficult to remember factors that influenced earlier stages of the planning task. This is especially true if the task involves ma ny people working concurrently and at different times. When groups of people collaborate concurrently, detecting and tracking multiple simultaneous touch es or movements by a user or user tool, on or near a surface (e.g., on a planar surface) is an essential capability. The multiple target detection and application state navigation system provides an application- independent mechanism that allows operators to operate an application in real-time, and walk back through the history of the application in order to better understa nd (or remember) the application actions that were taken in the past and the triggers for those actions.
