Patent CA-2441258-C (CA)
Inventor: NEUMANN RAINER
IPC: B25G1/06
Filed: 2002-02-26
Granted: 2009-12-22
Abstract: The invention relates to a pair of manual tongs (1) comprising two limbs (3, 4) which are rotatably connected in a common first rotational axis (2). The first limb (3) is separated into two levers (7, 8) in its lever section (6), said two levers (7, 8) being rotatably connected in a first articulation (11), in a second rotational axis (13) parallel to the common first rotational axis (2). A means of traction (15) connects the second limb (4) to the lever (7) of the first limb (3), which is situated at a distance from the handle. Said means of traction can be shortened by means of a pivotal movement of the lever (8) of the first limb (3), which is situated close to the handle, about the second rotational axis (13). The areas of use of the manual tongs (1) are often difficult to access. According to the invention, the second limb (4) of the inventive manual tongs (1) is thus separated into a lever (9) situated at a distance from the handle and a lever (10) situated close to the handle and the two levers (9, 10) are rotatably connected in a second articulation (12), in a third rotational axis (14) which is parallel to the common first rotational axis (2).

Title: Cleaning system utilizing an organic cleaning solvent and a pressurized fluid solvent
Inventor: DAMASO GENE R
IPC: B08B3/08
Filed: 2002-04-18
Granted: 2010-02-09
Abstract: A cleaning system that utilizes an organic cleaning solvent and pressurized fluid solvent is disclosed. The system has no conventional evaporative hot air drying cycle. Instead, the system utilizes the solubility of the organic solvent in pressurized fluid solvent as well as the physical properties of pressurized fluid solvent. After an organic solvent cleaning cycle, the solvent is extracted from the textiles at high speed in a rotating drum (112, 122) in the same way conventional solvents are extracted from textiles in conventional evaporative hot air dry cleaning machines. Instead of proceeding to a conventional drying cycle, the extracted textiles are then immersed in pressurized fluid solvent to extract the residual organic solvent from the textiles. This is possible because the organic solvent is soluble in pressurized fluid solvent. After the textiles are immersed in pressurized fluid solvent, pressurized fluid solvent is pumped from the drum (112, 122).  Finally, the drum is de-pressurized to atmospheric pressure to evaporate any remaining pressurized fluid solvent, yielding clean, solvent free textiles.  The organic solvent is preferably selected from terpenes, halohydrocarbons, certain glycol ethers, polyols, ethers, esters of glycol ethers, esters of fatty acids and other long chain carboxylic acids, fatty alcohols and other long-chain alcohols, short-chain alcohols, polar aprotic solvents, siloxanes, hydrofluoroethers, dibasic esters, and aliphatic hydrocarbons solvents or similar solvents or mixtures of such solvents and the pressurized fluid solvent is preferably densified carbon dioxide.

Title: Control apparatus for plant
Inventor: YASUI YUJI
IPC: G05B13/04
Filed: 2003-05-28
Granted: 2008-09-16
Abstract: The present invention provides a control apparatus for a plant, which can suppress excessive correction for a spiky disturbance being applied and maintain a good controllability, when controlling the plant, which is a controlled object, with the self-tuning regulator. A detected equivalent ratio KACT is input to a high-pass filter 33, and a high-pass filter output KACTHP is input to a parameter adjusting mechanism 42. The parameter adjusting mechanism 42 calculates a corrected updating vector (KID . d .theta.  (k)) by multiplying an updating component d .theta. of a model parameter vector by a correction coefficient KID, and adds the corrected updating vector to a preceding value .theta.(k-1) of the model parameter vector, to thereby calculate a present value .theta.(k). The correction coefficient KID is changed from "1.0"  to a value near "0" upon detection of the spiky response where an absolute value of the high-pass filter output KACTHP increases.

Title: Motor cooling structure for electric vehicle
Inventor: ISHIKAWA TOMOMI
IPC: F01P1/06
Filed: 2005-07-20
Granted: 2008-12-02
Abstract: To provide a motor cooling structure for an electric vehicle which can efficiently cool a driving motor in a power unit case of the electric vehicle. A transmission case cover having an air filter is mounted on the left side surface of a transmission case at a portion adjacent to a fan, and a ventilation gap is defined between a rear portion of the transmission case cover and the transmission case. The transmission case cover is formed with a cooling air inlet facing the above ventilation gap. When the fan is rotated in synchronism with a crankshaft, an outside cooling air is introduced from the cooling air inlet into the transmission case cover and is then passed through the air filter to enter the transmission case, thereby forcibly cooling a CVT 23. Thereafter, a part of the cooling air introduced into the transmission case is discharged from a central air outlet to the outside of the transmission case, and the remaining cooling air is drawn to the driven portion of the CVT 23.

Title: Arrangement for traversing an ipv4 network by ipv6 mobile routers
Inventor: THUBERT PASCAL
IPC: H04J3/24
Filed: 2004-03-09
Granted: 2010-02-09
Abstract: A source IPv6 mobile router is configured for establishing an IPv4 tunnel with destination IPv6 mobile router using a synthetic tag address, specifying a forwarding protocol, and IPv4 source and destination addresses. If an optional transport header is used (e.g, UDP port), the source port and destination port also are added to the synthetic tag address. The IPv6 packet includes a reverse routing header that enables the destination IPv6 mobile router to recover routing information for reaching the source IPv6 mobile router via the IPv4 network. Hence, all IPv4 routing information that may be needed by the destination IPv6 mobile router in sending an IPv6 reply packet back to the source IPv6 mobile router is maintained in the routing header specified in the IPv6 reply packet.
