Patent CA-2563764-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SANTANGELI P ROBERT
IPC: B01D53/86
Filed: 2005-04-25
Abstract: The present invention provides methods and apparatus for injecting fluid, such as an aqueous urea solution, into an exhaust stream in order to reduce oxides of nitrogen (NOx) emissions from diesel engine exhaust The present invention uses mechanical spill return atomization techniques to produce droplets approximately 50 µm SMD (Sauter mean diameter) or smaller. This size range is appropriate to allow urea to react into ammonia within the residence time associated with an on-road diesel engine. This effect is achieved through the use of a whirl plate having a plurality of whirl slots surrounding an exit orifice of the injector, which produce a high velocity rotating flow in the whirl chamber. When the rotating flow of fluid is passed through the exit orifice into an exhaust stream, atomization occurs from a combination of centrifugal force and shearing of the fluid by air as it jets into the exhaust stream.

The transducer may wirelessly transmit a signal representative of the fluid level to a receiving unit.  The receiving unit may be able to instantaneously determine the overall fluid flow rate from the tanks based on the fluid levels when compared to previous fluid levels. The transducers may take fluid level measurements at regular intervals or may make measurements only when directed by the receiving unit.

Abstract: Infant car seats are designed with a handle to allow for transport of the child to and from the vehicle by a parent or caregiver. Due to the size and structure of the infant car seat this is often an encumbering and tiresome task.  This invention uses a system of supports to alleviate the bulk of the strain on the individuals arm and hand by placing the majority of the weight carried on larger muscle groups and closer to the center of gravity. The device may use a fastener to allow for simple connecting and releasing around the handle of the infant car seat and the body of the carrier. It may also include a mechanism for adjusting the carrying height of the infant car seat. Reflective tape may be found on a variety of areas to increase visibility at night. The area of support that will be positioned on the shoulder may be widened to ensure stable positioning as well as padded for comfort of the individual.

Patent CA-2569720-A1 (CA)
Inventor: HAIM JOHN W
IPC: H04B1/707
Filed: 2001-07-12
Abstract: A system and a method of controlling transmitter power in a wireless communication system in which user data is processed as a multirate signal having a rate N(t) and in which the user data signal having rate N(t) is converted into a transmission data signal having a faster rate M(t) for transmission. The transmission power is adjusted on a relatively slow basis based on quality of data received by a receiver of the transmitted data. The transmitter power is determined as a function of N(t)/M(t) such that a change in the data rate in the multiple channels or the rate of the transmission data signal is compensated in advance of a quality of data based adjustment associated with such data rate change. Preferably, the user data signal having rate N(t) is converted into the transmission data signal having the faster rate M(t) by repeating selected data bits whereby the energy per bit to noise spectrum density ratio is increased in the transmission data signal.

Abstract: An anti-forge material is disclosed. Anti-fibers (2) are distributed on the anti-forge material. Part surfaces (3) of the anti-forge fibers (2) are located on the surface (1) of the anti-forge material (1), wherein said part surfaces (3) have concave-convex sheltering structure, and at least two color patterns (A, B) are distributed on the surfaces. Said at least two color patterns (A, B) have distinct visual difference on the said part surfaces (3), resulting that the color patterns (A, B) can be seen from the surface (1') of the anti-forge material (1) respectively when observed from different angle.  Due to the visual difference according to the present invention is formed by shielding the patterns distributed on the part surfaces (3) of the anti-forge fibers (2) in the anti-forge material with the concave-convex sheltering structure, the exact printing is unable to imitate the three-dimensional structure. Therefore the present invention is capable of preventing imitate of printing effectively.

IPC: B25J15/00
Filed: 2005-09-19
Abstract: The invention provides an articulating mechanism useful, for example, for remote manipulation of various surgical instruments and diagnostic tools within, or to, regions of the body. Movement of segments (A1, B1, D1) at the proximal end (106, 107, 121, 606, 806, 1711, 1801) of the mechanism results in a corresponding, relative movement of segments (A2, B2, D2) at the distal end (108, 109, 123, 604, 808, 1721, 1822) of the mechanism. The proximal and distal segments are connected by a set of cables (104) in such a fashion that each proximal segment forms a discrete pair with a distal segment. This configuration allows each segment pair to move independently of one another and also permits the articulating mechanism to undergo complex movements and adopt complex configurations. The articulating mechanisms may also be combined in such a way to remotely mimic finger movements for manipulation of an object or body tissue.
