Patent CA-2434892-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BINDER YEHUDA
IPC: H04M1/715
Filed: 2001-01-16
Abstract: A telephone outlet (71) simultaneously supporting both standard telephony and data communications over telephone wiring within a residence or other building. The outlet typically contains a low pass filter (31a), connected between the telephone wiring (21a, 21b) and the telephone connector pins used for telephony (e.g. pins 2 and 3 in typical North-American RJ-11 connectors).  In addition, a direct, unfiltered connection to the telephone wiring is supported via two other unused pins (e.g. pins 1 and 6 in typical North American RJ-11 6-pin connectors), thus allowing the connection of modems and high pass filters for access to the high frequency portion of the spectrum for data communications. Benefits include easy and direct connection of a telephone set or data devices to the same outlet, and elimination of the need to modify the telephone with low-pass filters or to provide an external module with a low-pass filter in series with the telephone. The direct, unfiltered connection to the telephone wiring also permits using a modified telephone having a low-pass filter, or an external module if so desired.

Title: Sliding sleeve valve
Inventor: KASZUBA FRANK
IPC: E21B34/14
Filed: 2003-07-31
Abstract: A sliding sleeve valve and method for assembly is disclosed. The valve comprises a segmented main body that is assembled from a top, middle and bottom segments. The middle segment has flow apertures. A closing sleeve is co-axially mounted in the assembled main body. The closing sleeve has flow apertures that are intended to communicate with the flow apertures of the middle section when the valve is open. The closing sleeve is sealed by seal means within the main body to prevent undesired fluid flow across the valve. The seal means comprise primary, secondary and tertiary seals acting in cooperative combinations. The seals comprise O-Ring and Vee-stack seals located within the body of the valve. The sliding sleeve valve has a fluid pressure equalization means to permit equalization of fluid pressure across the valve before it is fully opened or fully closed in order to reduce wear on the seals. The equalization means comprises a plurality of pressure equalization ports in the sliding sleeve that are intended to communicate with the main body apertures prior to the sliding sleeve apertures when opening and subsequent to the sliding sleeve apertures when closing.

Title: Phased array ultrasonic inspection method for industrial applications
Inventor: BARSHINGER JAMES NORMAN
IPC: G01N29/26
Filed: 2003-09-04
Abstract: A method for inspecting a component (10) includes exciting a number of transducers (12) forming an array (14) to produce an ultrasonic transmission beam (beam) focused into the component. The array and the component are separated by a standoff (18). A number of echo signals are generated using the transducers, and the echo signals are processed in a number of channels (20). The processing includes both dynamical focus and providing a dynamic aperture (24) on receive, both of which compensate for refraction of the beam at the component/standoff interface. A single-turn inspection method includes: (a) positioning the array facing the component, (b) exciting the transducers, (c) generating a number of echo signals, (d) changing the relative angular orientation of the array and the component around an axis (26) and repeating steps (b) and (c), and (e) processing the echo signals to form at least one processed echo signal.
