Title: A hooked loop for receiving a safety rope that attaches to the fixing or support of a roof from the outside
Inventor: HEAVEN DARRYLL LAWRENCE
IPC: A47L3/04
Filed: 2010-09-09
Abstract: A safety system for use on a building is disclosed. The system uses a plurality of hooks (1) and a safety line (9). Each hook engages with the roof beneath roof cladding (6) and extends to a position where it can be accessed from in front of the cladding. In one embodiment the hooks clip on to the fasteners (5) holding down the cladding and are attached by compressing the clip to allow passage of the fastener into the clip, then the clip is released so that the fastener is held within a loop formed by the clip. In another embodiment the hooks connect ton the underlying structure of the roof. The safety line connects through the hooks so that the line runs adjacent to the lower edge of the roof. This line can be connected to a person to support them during a fall.

Title: A method of generating a three dimensional model of an object using mesoscopic geometery modulation
Inventor: BEELER THABO DOMINIK
IPC: G06T15/04
Filed: 2011-01-18
Abstract: A computer-implemented method for mesoscopic geometry modulation is disclosed. The method comprises the steps of: (a) determining a first set of mesoscopic details associated with an object by applying a filter to an image of an object, wherein mesoscopic details included in the first set of mesoscopic details are detectable in the image of the object and are not detectable when generating a coarse geometry reconstruction of the object; and (b) generating a three-dimensional model for the object by modulating the coarse geometry with the first set of mesoscopic details. The coarse geometry is performed by stereo reconstruction based on two images of the object, where the object may be a human head, and the mesoscopic details may comprise spots, freckles, moles, pores, fine wrinkles, or facial hair.

Abstract: 591895 A system for heating a sound-reflective mirror (40) surface of a phased array monostatic sodar apparatus where the mirror has a rear side that is opposed to the sound-reflective mirror surface is disclosed. The system comprises a closed loop (40) with enclosed channels (60) and liquid (50); a heater (70) that heats the liquid in the loop; one or more conductive structures within the loop that are thermally coupled to the rear side of the mirror; sensors (24, 25, 26, 29) that sense precipitation and temperature; and a controller (21) for the heater where the controller causes the heater to heat the liquid in the loop in response to both sensed precipitation and temperature. The above described system can further comprises i) an electrically driven circulation pump that circulates the liquid from the heater to the mirror and back; ii) a thermally conductive epoxy adhesive used to make a joint of low resistance to heat transfer between the conductive structure and the mirror, and also used to make a joint of low resistance to heat transfer between the enclosed channels and the conductive structures; iii) the one or more conductive structures are sized and shaped so as to conform to the outside surface of the channels over the majority of the channel’s circumference and also have a generally flat surface that is coupled to the rear surface of the mirror, to accomplish a effective thermal connection between the channels and the mirror. The controller can comprises a means to sense precipitation, an ambient temperature sensor and a mirror temperature sensor that senses the temperature of the mirror and the controller can turns on the heater upon the simultaneous detection of precipitation and an ambient temperature or a mirror temperature close to or below the freezing point of water, and turns off the heater when the mirror temperature reaches at least a certain temperature above freezing. The heater can be fuelled by propane and where the heater operates catalytically, oxidizing the propane without an open flame and the liquid can be an antifreeze solution heated by the heater, used to transfer heat from the heater to the mirror; and the enclosed channels, the conductive structures and the minor can be all made of the same metal.

Title: A nozzle for creating an air current in a bladeless fan assembly
Inventor: NICOLAS FREDERIC
IPC: F04F5/46
Filed: 2009-11-09
Abstract: Disclosed is a nozzle for a bladeless fan assembly. The nozzle has an interior passage for receiving an air flow and a mouth through which the airflow is emitted. The mouth is defined by first and second facing surfaces of the nozzle and a spacer for spacing apart the facing surfaces of the nozzle. The nozzle defines an opening through which air from outside the fan assembly is drawn to replace the air emitted from the mouth. The spacer is integral with the first facing surface and one of the facing surfaces of the nozzle is biased towards the other of the facing surfaces so that the spacer means contacts the second facing surface to space apart the facing surfaces.

Title: Headgear for positive air pressure treatment with a bifurcated conduit which compensates for occusion in one side if a patient rolls in their sleep
Inventor: KWOK PHILIP RODNEY
IPC: A61M16/06
Filed: 2005-04-15
Abstract: 595133 Disclosed is headgear for delivering gas under a positive pressure to a patient. The headgear has a connector adapted to be attached to a supply of gas and a pair of side portions adapted to extend along opposite sides of the patient's head. The side portions define a flexible conduit wall having a first conduit end attached to the connector and a second conduit end adapted to be positioned adjacent the patient's nose. Each conduit wall is deformable between an open condition and a closed condition. In the open condition the conduit wall defines a conduit passage along which the gas can travel between the first conduit end and the second conduit end, when the connector is attached to the supply of gas under normal operating conditions and no external compressive force is applied to the conduit wall. In the closed condition the conduit wall substantially collapses the conduit passage due to the force of the patient's head rolling on the conduit wall. When the conduit passage of one of the side portions collapses, the conduit passage of the other side portion compensates for the collapsed conduit passage.

Title: Methods for modifying the solubility of a polymer in a solvent
Inventor: MEDOFF MARSHALL
IPC: H05B6/00
Filed: 2011-05-20
Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method of increasing the solubility of a polymer which is nonpolar or has low polarity, the method comprising: treating the polymer by irradiation with accelerated electrons to increase the solubility of the polymer after irradiation relative to the solubility of the polymer prior to the irradiation, wherein irradiating comprises exposing the polymer to an electron beam and applying to the polymer a total dose of radiation of at least 5 Mrads, wherein irradiating includes exposing the polymer to a particle beam comprising particles that are heavier than electrons such as protons, helium nuclei, argon ions, silicon ions, neon ions, carbon ions, phoshorus ions, oxygen ions or nitrogen ions, and wherein the molecular structure of the irradiated polymer is modified by disrupting the crystalline structure of the treated chemical, which increases the rate of dissolution of the chemical as well as increasing its solubility. Suitable polymers include natural and synthetic polymers which may be nonpolar polymers or polymers showing a low polarity, e.g., polyethylene, polystyrene, polybutadiene, poly(methyl methacrylate), poly(vinyl chloride), or poly(isobutylene), which are soluble in nonpolar solvents prior to physical treatment, or the polymer may be a polar macromolecule, e.g., poly(acrylic acid), poly(acrylamide) or polyvinyl alcohol, which is soluble in water prior to physical treatment. The disclosure particularly relates to a method of increasing the solubility of a synthetic polymer, the method comprising irradiating the synthetic polymer with particles such as protons or helium nuclei which are heavier than electrons, wherein the particles have an energy of from about 10 MeV/amu to about 1,000 MeV/amu, thereby producing an irradiated synthetic polymer with increased solubility relative to the solubility of the synthetic polymer prior to irradiating.
