Title: Computer system and method for jurisdictionwide registering and monitoring of vehicle locations
Inventor: HEMBURY CHRISTINE M
IPC: H04W4/02
Filed: 2009-10-20
Abstract: A computer system and a method as a part of the registration and/or inspection system of a state or other jurisdiction results in the assignment of a vehicle identification code to each vehicle and notification to the registrant to take the vehicle to an inspection/installation facility wherein a GPS receiver and transmitter are either installed, updated or checked for operability on a regular basis, such as yearly. Each registered vehicle in a state or other jurisdiction, as a result of the regular registration process or as the result of a temporary registration process when the vehicle enters the state temporarily, has a GPS receiver and transmitter transmit in real time location data of the vehicle via a wireless communication system such a WiFi, cellular, satellite or other system to an electronic storage subsystem which stores for each vehicle identification code the location data and time in real time and maintains it for a predetermined period of time, such as twelve months.  This data may be accessed by authorized users for various purposes including law enforcement, emergency responses and/or roadway planning studies and the like. The data may also be used in settlement of negligence or criminal complaints. An alarm detection system detects either the loss of signal or a tampering signal transmitted to the state computer system.

Title: Method and apparatus for monitoring combustion properties in an interior of a boiler
Inventor: ESTES MICHAEL JOHN
IPC: F23N5/08
Filed: 2010-01-07
Abstract: A method of monitoring com-bustion properties in an interior of a boiler of the type having walls comprising a plurality of parallel steam tubes separated by a metal membrane. First and second penetrations are provided in the metal membrane between ad-jacent tubes on opposite sides of the boiler. A  beam of light is projected through a pitch op-tic comprising a pitch collimating lens and a pitch relay lens, both residing outside the boiler interior. The pitch relay lens projects the beam through a penetration into the boiler interior. The beam of light is received with a catch optic substantially identical to the pitch optic residing outside the boiler interior. The strength of the collimated received beam of light is determined. At least one of the pitch collimating lens and the catch collimating lens may then be aligned to maximize the strength of the collimated received beam.

Title: Steam pressing iron with automatic condensate removal
Inventor: JEON HEEBAE
IPC: F16T1/16
Filed: 2011-10-31
Abstract: An improvement in a steam powered pressing iron, in which steam is supplied by a boiler through a steam intake hose, to a steam connection 4. The steam collects in a steam chamber inside a body 5, and heats the iron. A lever 8 is depressed by a thumbpad 9 to actuate a steam discharge valve 10. The steam discharge valve 10 discharges the steam, under its steam pressure through a plenum to vents 12 (fig. 2) in a bottom 14 of the iron 2, applying steam to a garment being pressed. The improvement includes a steam trap valve 36. The steam trap valve discharges condensate to a discharge return connector 38, through the return hose to the boiler. The steam trap valve 36 is a thermodynamic steam trap, for preventing the flow of hot steam back to the boiler. But when in contact with cold condensate, the steam trap valve 36 automatically permits the flow of condensate through valve 36, out return connector 38, through the return hose, to the boiler. No manual valve turning is needed to open valve 36; and the cold condensate is automatically purged from the iron without operator intervention.

Patent CA-2761912-A1 (CA)
Inventor: NEVEAUX DAVID
IPC: A63F13/00
Filed: 2010-05-18
Abstract: Disclosed in this specification is an electronic board game. In use, a primary game (e.g.  a card game) is played until one of the players presses an activation button. The other players at-tempt to quickly react and press their buttons. The faster they react, the more points the players earn.  The initial activation of the timers can be done when that player perceives a predetermined event that occurred during the card game. The player may attempt to bluff the other players by pressing the button without having perceived the event but do-ing so risks the other players issuing a challenge. In certain embodiments, the cards are selected to help players learn basic skills, such as shapes, colors, or mathematical operations.
