Patent CA-2453217-A1 (CA)
Inventor: STEMMLE DENIS J
IPC: B65H29/68
Filed: 2003-12-16
Abstract: A transporting system and method for use in a high velocity document processing system using lower velocity print technology. The invention including an upstream transport conveying spaced apart documents at a first transport velocity. A deceleration transport decelerates documents from the high speed to a lower print velocity before passing the documents a print transport. A sensor located at the deceleration transport, detects the presence of documents at the deceleration transport, and triggers the deceleration profile to be performed on the document. The deceleration transport is controlled such that a leading portion of a document that is being decelerated overtakes a trailing portion of a downstream document that already traveling at the lower print velocity in the control of the print transport. An overlapping arrangement urges the lead portion of the upstream document to overlap on top of the trailing portion of the downstream document when the upstream document overtakes the downstream document. A print head prints on the transported documents at the print transport velocity.

Title: Device and method for heating hydrogen storage canister
Inventor: LI YINGJENG JAMES
IPC: F17C11/00
Filed: 2003-12-18
Abstract: A device for heating hydrogen storage canister includes a canister containing chamber for accommodation of at least one hydrogen storage canister, a catalyst bed arranged in the canister containing chamber for catalysis. A blowing device provides an air flow through an air flow leading pipe to a nozzle section which is connected with a heating gas drawing pipe to the catalyst bed. A heating fuel storage tank supplies heating fuel which is conveyed to the nozzle section through a heating fuel supplying pipeline, a coiled pipe and a heating fuel conveying pipe in sequence. When the air flow flows through the nozzle section, the heating fuel is drawn into the nozzle section to mix with the air flow, forming a heating gas. The heating gas is atomized by the nozzle section and flows to the catalyst bed where the heating gas is catalyzed to burn to generate a hot gas to heat the hydrogen storage canister.

Abstract: Method and apparatus are presented for an augmented reality-based firefighter training system. The system includes hardware for motion tracking, display, and vari-nozzle instrumentation. This hardware incorporates a display (5) with a firefighter's self contained breathing apparatus (SCBA). Additionally, this display has been instrumented for measuring head position and acquiring a view through a camera (4) from the user's perspective. Headphones in SCBA also provide audio stimuli to the user. This instrumented SCBA has been ruggedized for protection against shock and undesirable environmental polluants. The instrumented vari-nozzle (9) has been ruggedized so it is protected against both shock and undesirable environmental pollutant penetration through a hard cover and soft equipment mounts. Shock sensitive equipment is seated on an island which is supported by one or more soft vertical posts. System software includes a real-time fire model, a layered smoke obscuration model, simulation of an extinguishing agent, real-time extinguishing agent interaction with airborne system particles, and an interface to a zone fire model. Physical modeling and graphical elements in the software combine to create realistic-looking fire, smoke, and extinguishing graphics. Extinguishing agent force computations are applied in a realistic manner to approximate interactions with airborne particles such as fire, smoke, and aerosols. Occlusion of virtual objects by real people or objects using orthogonal billboards, soft edges, and motion tracking data is described and implemented. The hardware and software components together contribute to a realistic, interactive training experience for firefighters.
