Patent CA-2467227-A1 (CA)
Title: Improvements in receivers for television signals
Inventor: COLLINS ELLEN FIONA
IPC: H04N21/458
Filed: 2002-11-13
Abstract: A television signals receiver for receives and stores television signals encoded at a variable data rate. Time information is generated based on the time of receipt of the signals that defines the duration of the television signals when output in decompressed form at a substantially constant data rate. The received signals are then written to a file on a hard disk (13) in received order together with the time information. The time information of signals stored in the file is monitored and old signals are deleted from the file such that the file stores signals corresponding to a predetermined period of time.
Patent CA-2467441-A1 (CA)
Inventor: CLAUDE PIERRE-PHILIPPE
IPC: C05F11/08
Filed: 2002-11-29
Abstract: The invention concerns a method for obtaining in vitro bacterial biomasses of edaphic origin comprising steps which consist in: contacting an aqueous soil suspension with a matrix substrate, so as to form a hydrated zone, or biofilm, at the surface of the substrate, similar to the one adjacent to the clay-humus complex of the soil, essentially containing the internal bacterial constituent of the soil, so as to retain at the surface of the matrix substrate, the essential part of the bacterial flora endogenous to the original edaphic media; maturing the biofilm providing oligotrophic conditions enabling the cells which constitute most of the edaphic biofilm which have colonized the matrix substrate to migrate to the supernatant liquid phase of the matrix substrate, and gradually to prevail over it; recovering and culturing the bacterial strains most prolific in rich liquid culture media, with internal character, rustic and persistent in situ, capable of being cultured in liquid environment, hence capable of industrial production. The resulting bacterial biomasses and strains are useful for microbiological bacterization of soils and crop residues, in particular cereal crop residues, including those of corn.

Title: Device for hot dip coating metal strands
Inventor: BEHRENS HOLGER
IPC: C23C2/40
Filed: 2003-02-20
Abstract: The invention relates to a device for hot dip coating metal strands (1), particularly strip steel, in which the metal strand (1) can be vertically guided through a reservoir (3), which accommodates the molten coating metal (2), and though a guide channel (4) connected upstream therefrom. An electromagnetic inductor (5) is mounted in the area of the guide channel (4) and in order to retain the coating metal (2) inside the reservoir (3), can induce induction currents in the coating metal (2) by means of an electromagnetic traveling field. While interacting with the electromagnetic traveling field, said induction currents exert an electromagnetic force. The inductor (5) has at least two main coils (6) that are arranged in succession in movement direction (X) of the metal strand (1), and has at least two correction coils (7) for controlling the position of the metal strand (1) inside the guide channel (4) in direction (N), which is normal to the surfac e of the metal strand (1). These correction coils are also arranged in succession in movement direction (X) of the metal strand (1). In order to improve the efficiency of the control of the metal strip inside the guide channel, the invention provides that at least a portion of the correction coils (7), when viewed in movement direction (X) of themetal strand (1), are arranged so that they are offset with regard to one another perpendicular to movement direction (X) and perpendicular to direction (N) that is normal to the surface of the metal strand (1).

Abstract: The primary distribution hoses on the tillage implement of a pneumatic seeding machine are of different lengths as needed to reach distribution heads or splitters on the implement that further divide the primary streams of materials into individual streams leading directly to the ground-engaging openers of the implement. Notwithstanding the differential in hose length, outlet pressures at the distribution heads are made uniform through the provision of internal flow restrictors associated with those hoses that are shorter than the longest hoses on the machine. Throat diameters of the restrictors vary in accordance with the pressure drop that is needed to match the difference in hose length between the longest hose and the restricted hose. In a preferred embodiment, the restrictors are mounted within nipples on the coupling assembly that releasably connects conduits from a seed cart with the primary hoses on the implement.
