Inventor: HALSEY JAMES W
IPC: B65G47/84
Filed: 1999-01-07
Abstract: Single and dual direction diverting pusher elements (18) for a sortation conveyor and other appropriate conveyors. The diverting pusher elements (18) include a right hand diverting pusher element and a left hand diverting pusher element which are mirror images of each other, and a dual direction diverting pusher element which is substantially a combination of portions of the left and right hand diverting pusher elements. The pusher elements are provided with package engaging bumpers (34) which are enlarged in height, length and pushing surface area to reduce slippage and to increase pushing accuracy. Each pusher element has a forward apron-like surface having upper and lower surface areas (20, 21), the lower surface area (20) sloping upwardly at a lesser angle to the horizontal than the upper area (21) to give maximum package-lifting characteristics. The upper surface of each pusher element is provided with upwardly sloping ribs (25, 26, 27) which strengthen the bumber mounting system and also serve as lifting surfaces.

Patent CA-2387132-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MELTON DONALD A
IPC: G07C9/00
Filed: 2000-10-04
Abstract: An Electronic House Arrest Monitoring (EHAM) system of the present invention includes a transmitter attached to a monitored offender and a receiver positioned in the vicinity of the desired monitoring location. The transmitter and the receiver each have a pattern stored or generated therein for determining the interval of time between signal transmissions and receptions. The pattern is pseudo-random to offer improved protection against imposter transmitters, in other words the time intervals are selected to be unequal and randomly varying but the pattern is repeated or cycled to allow continuing signal transmission by the transmitter.  The transmitter transmits signals at varying time intervals according to this pattern, and the receiver authenticates signal it receives as coming from the monitored transmitter based on the expected time intervals from the pattern. The pattern may include any number of time intervals and, in one embodiment, includes more than one subpattern to extend the length of the repeat cycle to increase the difficulty of defeating the monitoring system. As further protection against imposter devices, the receiver may verify the signals based on information unique to the transmitter included in each signal. The receiver may further use the received signals and unique time interval patterns to determine a number of operating states, including New Transmitter ID Received, Transmitter In Range and Locked to transmitter, Transmitter In Range and Not Locked, Transmitter Out of Range, and Imposter Likely. The monitoring system may also include a remote host computer linked to the receiver or receivers to enable these operating states to be monitored remotely by enforcement personnel.

Patent CA-2393226-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SCHLEICH BERNHARD
IPC: C09D5/16
Filed: 2002-07-12
Abstract: The present invention relates to an object having a self-cleaning surface which has a self-regenerating self-cleaning effect, and to a process for its production. The object has a self-cleaning hydrophobic surface on which there are first particles secured by means of a carrier, where the carrier itself is a mixture made from second particles and a binder. Although the particles on the surface may be ablated by erosion, new particles are released from the carrier and the self-cleaning effect is thus self-regenerating. The object may be used with advantage outdoors, e.g. on vehicles, since that is where the self-cleaning materials are particularly exposed to the effects of the environment.
