Patent CA-2497234-A1 (CA)
Title: Fluid suspended self-rotating body and method
Inventor: FRENCH WILLIAM W
IPC: G09F19/02
Filed: 2003-08-28
Abstract: In a display device where a moving object is immersed in a fluid filling a transparent sealed, vessel (72) and is rotated by an internal electrical mechanism that derives it power from a photo cell (128) and its counter torque from an internal compass (140), the index of refraction of the fluid is adjusted by addition of water to match the index of refraction of the vessel material. The formula of the fluid is also tailored to minimize absorption of ambient moisture into the vessel. In one embodiment of the electrical spinning mechanism, the magnet acts both as a biasing compass and as a magnetic field generator for the motor. In a second embodiment of the spinning mechanism, the stator is constituted by a multipole ring-shaped magnet (120) that does not interfere with the operation of the biasing compass magnet (140). Multiple windings in the electrical spinning mechanism are energized through a split-ring and brush commutator (92) that use the mechanism shaft (122) as conductor.

IPC: C14B1/34
Filed: 2005-02-16
Abstract: An extended nip press machine, similar to those used in the paper industry, for use in the leather industry to remove water from hides after the tanning process. The leather press consists of a shoe whose surface substantially matches the radius of an opposing pressure roll. Moving across the shoe is an endless belt, which is lubricated by a thin film of oil.  Between the belt and corresponding pressure roll pass two endless felt belts, which are the means of conveying the leather hides. The nip formed by the shoe press is dramatically longer than a conventional press nip, thereby increasing the dewatering efficiency of the leather press.

Title: Continuous production of container preforms
Inventor: KALMOUNI BASSAM M
IPC: B29C49/02
Filed: 2004-08-05
Abstract: A method of producing preforms for blow molding containers includes producing polyester polymer by melt phase polymerization and compression molding preforms of the polyester polymer without solidifying the polyester polymer prior to compression molding the preforms. This process has the advantage of eliminating the conventional intermediate steps of solidifying the polymer in the form of pellets, shipping the pellets to the preform manufacturer and then remelting the polymer. Furthermore, because the preforms are produced directly from melt phase polymer, the polymer can have a low intrinsic viscosity of 0.65 or less, which is particularly useful for blow molding containers for low pressure, low temperature applications.
