Patent CA-2518674-C (CA)
Inventor: SIMOLA JUHA
IPC: G01R33/02

Granted: 2019-04-16
Abstract: L'invention porte sur un procédé et un dispositif permettant d'exprimer un champ vectoriel sans source non rotatif au moyen d'un certain nombre de vecteurs de base physiquement raisonnables les plus petits possible de manière que les signaux mesurés puissent être divisés sans ambiguïté en signaux du champ de vecteur sans source non rotatif qui sont provoqués par un objet intéressant ou des interférences externes, ainsi qu'en un signal provoqué par la non idéalité du dispositif de mesure, ce signal n'étant pas inclus dans le modèle de l'espace de signaux qui décrit un champ de vecteur sans source et non rotatif. Cette invention est fondée sur la combinaison de deux constances mathématiques fondamentales qui s'appliquent dans le traitement de vecteurs de signaux d'un dispositif de mesure multi-canaux qui mesure un champ de vecteur sans source non rotatif : sur les équations de Maxwell d'un champ de vecteur sans source et non rotatif, ainsi que sur la convergence de caractéristiques de développements en séries.

Title: Microporous filter media with intrinsic safety feature
Inventor: KOSLOW EVAN E
IPC: C02F1/76
Filed: 2004-04-03
Granted: 2011-11-22
Abstract: The present invention is directed to a microporous filter medium treated with a microbiological interception enhancing agent comprising a cationic chemical having a medium to high charge density and a molecular weight greater than about 5000 Daltons, adsorbed on at least a portion of the microporous structure, and a biologically active metal in direct proximity to the cationic chemical and also on at least a portion of the microporous structure, wherein the flow of fluid through the filter medium decreases in response to an amount of polyanionic acids present in an influent. Robust microbiological interception is still maintained due to the extended empty bed contact time as a result of the diminished flow rate.

Abstract: A modular enclosure, such as a shed, may include sidewalls and a roof. The roof, for example, may include first and second roof panels that are separated by a seam. The roof may also include a truss that is sized and configured to support the roof panels. The truss may include a channel that allows any moisture entering the shed from between the roof panels to be removed from the shed. In particular, a portion of the first roof panel and a portion of the second roof panel may be at least partially disposed within the channel. Advantageously, the truss may be constructed from metal, which may allow a strong and sturdy shed to be constructed, and the roof panels may be constructed from blow-molded plastic, which may allow a lightweight and generally weather resistant shed to be produced.

Abstract: The present invention relates to compositions and methods useful for the treatment of ear disorders, administered to a treated ear in the form of a foam or a mousse. Administering a medicament in such forms will increase the residence time of the medicament in the ear canal, provide relatively uniform distribution of the composition, and can increase the penetration of the active pharmaceutical ingredient in the affected area, may release active substances slowly, enhance treatment effectiveness, increase compliance and is more convenient to use than currently available ear medications. The administration in the form of a foam or a mousse may preferably be provided as a metered dose, of a volume suitable to fill the ear canal.

Abstract: This invention provides an improved electronic whiteboard cabinet to be primarily used in educational facilities and presentations in front of audiences; this is an angled ergonomic, non reflective electronic whiteboard cabinet with integrated sound system, wired, with space on the back top portion of the unit to install a computer CPU and accessories inside the whiteboard and to hold any capture device on front of the unit. It can even hold other types of electronic whiteboard systems with sensitive surfaces. Its angled surface deflects any light coming horizontally or "top to bottom" such as sunlight, classroom lamps and light projection coming from an overhead projector or video projector of any type not reflecting the light directly to the audience; instead it deflects it to the floor. On the sides we can find the speakers and the access to the back cabinet. This unit can be wall mounted or movable.

Title: Process for producing cyclic n-hydroxy imide compounds
Inventor: KAJIKAWA YASUTERU
IPC: C07D211/94
Filed: 2005-03-28
Granted: 2012-11-06
Abstract: A cyclic polycarboxylic acid anhydride, a polycarboxylic acid, or a mixture of them is allowed to react with hydroxylamine or a salt thereof in an organic solvent under dewatering conditions to yield a corresponding cyclic N-hydroxyimide compound. The cyclic polycarboxylic acid anhydride can be, for example, succinic anhydride or glutaric anhydride. The polycarboxylic acid can be,for example, succinic acid, glutaric acid, or adipic acid. In this process, the reaction is preferably carried out using an organic solvent capable of undergoing azeotropy with water as all or part of a reaction solvent while removing water from the reaction system by azeotropy with the organic solvent. This process produces a cyclic N-hydroxyimide compound in a good yield from any of a cyclic polycarboxylic acid anhydride and a polycarboxylic acid.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a modified computer architecture (50, 71, 72) which enables an applications program (50) to be run simultaneously on a plurality of computers (M1, ...Mn). Shared memory at each computer is updated with amendments and/or overwrites so that all memory read requests are satisfied locally. During initial program loading (75), or similar, instructions which result in memory being re-written or manipulated are identified (92). Additional instructions are inserted (103) to cause the equivalent memory locations at all computers to be updated. In addition, the initialization of JAVA language classes and objects is disclosed (162, 163) so all memory locations for all computers are initialized in the same manner. The finalization of JAVA language classes and objects is also disclosed (162, 163) so finalization only occurs when the last class or object present on all machines is no longer required. During initial program loading (75), or similar, instructions which result in the application program (50) acquiring (or releasing) a lock on a particular asset (50A, 50X-50Y) (synchronization) are identified. Additional instructions are inserted (162, 163) to result in a modified synchronization routine with which all computers are updated.

Title: Method for producing fermented milk and fermented milk
Inventor: HORIUCHI HIROSHI
IPC: A23C9/13
Filed: 2005-06-10
Granted: 2014-03-18
Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a method for producing a fermented milk, in which fermentation is accelerated without using a fermentation accelerator or the like and a novel fermented milk obtained by the production method having a hard texture that does not collapse during the distribution stage while having thickness and mildness which are not exhibited by conventional products. As a result of study, it was found that the fermentation efficiency can be improved by reducing the oxygen dissolved in a raw material mix of the fermented milk at the start of fermentation through replacement thereof with an inert gas, and that fermentation in that condition at usual temperature leads to a method for producing a fermented milk by which the fermentation time is shortened thereby to improve the productivity, and fermentation at a temperature lower than usual leads to a method for producing a fermented milk by which a novel fermented milk that has a thick and mild taste superior to that of a fermented milk with a mild taste produced through conventional low-temperature and long-term fermentation and also has a hard texture that does not collapse during the distribution stage is obtained in usual fermentation time, and leads to such a fermented milk produced by the method. Thus the invention has been completed.
