Title: Method of operating elevators during emergency situations
Inventor: MASON CHRISTOPHER
IPC: B66B5/02
Filed: 2010-10-21
Abstract: An elevator system having at least two elevators, wherein at least one of the elevators is designated as an emergency personnel elevator, can be operated to allow a firefighter to commandeer a second elevator for the purpose of ferrying persons to a safe evacuation floor. The elevator system is configured to determine if a request for an evacuation elevator originates from the firefighter elevator car positioned at one of several floors of a building. In response to the request, an elevator car other than the emergency personnel elevator car is designated as the evacuation elevator car. Further, the evacuation elevator car is dispatched to the floor the emergency personnel elevator car is positioned, and the evacuation elevator car is dispatched to a predefined evacuation floor upon receipt of an evacuation request made by the firefighter.

Title: Navire commercial equipe d'un greement duplex
Inventor: ZANUTTINI JEAN
IPC: B63H9/06
Filed: 2012-10-18
Abstract: La présente invention concerne un dispositif dénommé navire commercial équipé d'un gréement duplex permettant d'utiliser l'énergie éolienne en tant que force motrice du navire. La particularité de ce dispositif est d'utiliser un gréement constitué de mâts solidaires en position jumelée, chaque mât étant placé sur les côtés de la coque au lieu de la position classique centrale, un navire pouvant contenir plusieurs couples de mâts duplex. Cette disposition des mâts présente plusieurs avantages, dont celui de réduire l'emprise des mâts sur la structure, celui de laisser un espace optimal au chargement, celui d'offrir une meilleure emprise au vent, celui de réduire le gîte, et celui de positionner les mâts en des points structuraux très robustes. Un haubanage transversal et longitudinal assorti d'entretoises robustes entre les mâts duplex assure une très grande robustesse à l'ensemble. Optionnellement, grâce au haubanage garantissant l'assise mécanique du gréement, les mâts peuvent être à la base montés sur des articulations permettant un démontage ou un basculement facilitant la maintenance et la navigation en zone à faible tirant d'air (fleuves, embouchures, voies maritimes...).

Patent CA-2801764-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MCCABE DERALD L
IPC: B01D21/00
Filed: 2013-01-11
Abstract: The system and method is directed to improved separation or clarification of solids from a solids-laden liquid, including the removal of low gravity solids. A liquid to be treated is introduced into the inlet of a solid-liquid separator modified to include one or more sources of vibrational energy. The liquid is directed through a conduit within the separator. This conduit can be configured into a tortuous flow path to assist in the separation of solids from the liquid, the tortuous path being interconnected between two separation towers. Vibrational energy and gas sparging is applied to the flow path. As solids fall out of solution, they are collected. The clarified liquid is also collected. A vacuum can be applied to the system to assist in moving the solid-liquid mixture through the system and to provide vacuum clarification. Electrocoagulation electrodes can also be employed.
