Patent CA-2704540-A1 (CA)
Inventor: HORN GAVIN B
IPC: H04W48/16
Filed: 2008-11-13
Abstract: Systems and methodologies are described that facilitate utilizing restriction codes in rejecting connection requests with restricted association access points to indicate a reason for the rejection. Mobile devices can maintain a list of accessible access points and/or groups of access points, which can be consulted during cell reselection to ensure unsuitable restricted association access points are not utilized in cell reselection. Based on receiving a rejection code from a restricted association access point, a mobile device can remove the access point, or a related group, from its maintained list so that subsequent reselection attempts avoid the access point and/or access points in the related group.

IPC: A47L15/00
Filed: 2008-12-11
Abstract: A dishwasher appliance is provided, and includes a control device configured to direct one of a series (100) of automatic wash programs (102, 104, 106) to be executed by the dishwasher appliance. Each successive automatic wash program within the series corresponds to an increased soil level of dishware to be washed with respect to the previous automatic wash program within the series. The control device is further configured to determine an elapsed time between a first and second uses of the dishwasher appliance and to select the one of the series of automatic wash programs in response thereto upon the second use, whereby, as the determined elapsed time between first and second uses increases, the selected automatic wash program within the series correspondingly progresses along the series. Associated methods are also provided.

Abstract: The present invention provides novel supersonic compressors comprising novel supersonic compressor rotors. The supersonic compressor rotors are designed to operate at very high rotational speed wherein the velocity of the gas entering the supersonic compressor rotor is greater than the local speed of sound in the gas, hence the descriptor "supersonic". The new supersonic compressors comprise at least one supersonic compressor rotor defining an inner cylindrical cavity and an outer rotor rim and at least one radial flow channel allowing fluid communication between the inner cylindrical cavity and the outer rotor rim, said radial flow channel comprising a supersonic compression ramp. The novel supersonic compressor rotors are expected to enhance the performance of supersonic compressors comprising them, and to provide for greater design versatility in systems comprising such novel supersonic compressors.

Abstract: Described herein is the synthesis of adhesive complex coacervates. The adhesive complex coacervates are composed of a mixture of one or more polycations, one or more poly anions, and one of more multivalent cations. The polycations and polyanions in the adhesice complex coacervate are crosslinked with one another by covalent bonds upon curing. The adhesive complex coacervates have several desirable features when compared to conventional bioadhesives, which are effective in water-based applicatgions. The adhesive complex coacervates described herein exhibit good interfacial tension in water when applied to a substrate (i.e., they spread over the interface rather than being beaded up).  Additionally, the ability of the complex coacervate to crosslink intermolecularly increases the cohesive strength of the adhesive complex coacervate. The adhesive complex coacervates have numerous biological applications as bioadhesives and drug delivery devices. In particular, the adhesive complex coacervates described herein are particularly useful in underwater applications and situations where water is present such as, for example, physiological conditions.

Title: Automatic control system for ceiling fan based on temperature differentials
Inventor: TOY MARK
IPC: F24F11/76
Filed: 2009-02-03
Abstract: A fan includes a hub, several fan blades, and a motor that is operable to drive the hub. A motor controller is in communication with the motor, and is configured to select the rate of rotation at which the motor drives the hub. The fan is installed in a place having a floor and a ceiling. An upper temperature sensor is positioned near the ceiling. A lower temperature sensor is positioned near the floor. The temperature sensors communicate with the motor controller, which includes a processor configured to compare substantially contemporaneous temperature readings from the upper and lower temperature sensors. The motor controller is thus configured to automatically control the fan motor to minimize the differences between substantially contemporaneous temperature readings from the upper and lower temperature sensors. The fan system may thus substantially destratify air in an environment, to provide a substantially uniform temperature distribution within the environment.

Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus for stripping off material from a conveyor belt (2) of a belt conveyor in the region of the curve of a discharge drum (1), below the discharge point of the belt conveyor, having a stripping body (4) which is of single-part or multiple-part configuration. In order that an apparatus of this type is adapted to the belt surface in an optimum manner, takes up relatively little space and affords an improved cleaning action while treating the conveyor belt in a gentle way, according to the invention the stripping body (4) is provided with a carrying element (3a), by means of which the stripping body (4) is pulled or can be pulled onto the conveyor belt (2). In addition, the stripping body is provided with a raising element (3b) which is arranged spaced apart from the carrying element (3a) in the stripping body (4) and carries the stripping body (4) if the latter is displaced in the belt running direction. One particularly preferred refinement of the apparatus according to the invention is characterized in that the stripping body has a plurality of stripping elements (13a, 13a') which define stripping edges (13.1) and have a greater wear resistance than the material of the stripping body (4), wherein the stripping elements (13a, 13a') are configured and/or arranged in such a way that the stripping edges (13.1) of adjacent stripping elements (13a, 13a') overlap partially.
