Title: Method and system for sorting mail
Inventor: CORMACK CAMERON LANNING
IPC: B07C3/00
Filed: 2006-05-19
Granted: 2011-11-15
Abstract: A method and system for sorting mailpieces in a single pass is provided. The system consists of a mail feeding unit, a mail scanner and a mail distribution unit having a number of receiving bins. Mailpieces are fed into the system one at a time through the scanner to determine the mailstop of the mailpiece. A control system assigns unique mailstops to unique receiving bins. Each mailpiece is deposited in a receiving bin assigned with its mailstop. When the number of mailstops exceeds the number of receiving bins, the control system empties a receiving bin and assigns the new mailstop to the emptied bin so it can receive mailpieces having the new mailstop. Accordingly, the system can sort mail destined for "m" mailstops into "n" receiving bins where "m" is greater than "n".

Inventor: MORRISON ROGER
IPC: G01R21/02
Filed: 2006-05-31
Granted: 2009-01-20
Abstract: Methods of detecting atypical patterns of usage of electricity, determined by monitoring consumption at the primary line, permit detection of grow-ops and unusual line losses due to defective service lines. A meter having a high resolution is connected to the primary line and the data collected is compared to known consumption patterns thus identifying a potential theft or a loss. Once an atypical pattern has been found, the heat signatures of transformers fed by the primary line are measured. An unusual heat signature alerts the utility to load test the secondary lines of each residence fed from the transformer and thus locate suspect residences which may be grow-ops or to locate a line loss due to defective service lines.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif (121) de compensation thermique de débit pour un débitmètre à effet Coriolis. Cette compensation corrige à la fois le facteur de calibrage de débit et le retard nominal, généralement appelé "zéro" dans la technique. Après installation du débitmètre à effet Coriolis dans un processus, à des fins de calibrage ou d'utilisation dans le processus réel, celui-ci ne doit être remis à zéro qu'une seule fois tout au long de sa durée de vie. Ceci constitue une amélioration importante par rapport aux débitmètres à effet Coriolis antérieurs qui nécessitent une remise à zéro après chaque modification mineure de pression, température, ou installation.

Abstract: A powered surgical tool with a housing that contains a power generating unit such as a motor. A control module is disposed in a shell that is mounted in the housing. The control module contains a control circuit for regulating the actuation of the power generating unit. The power generating unit emits a signal representative of the operating state of the unit that is transmitted through the structural material forming the shell. Also internal to the control module shell is a sensor that monitors the signal emitted by the power generating unit. This signal output by the sensor is applied to the control circuit. The control circuit, based on the sensor signal regulates actuation of the power generating unit. Wherein the power generating unit is a motor, the signal emitted is the magnetic field that varies with rotor position. The sensor monitors the strength of this field.
