Patent CA-2611009-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SAFRENO TY
IPC: G11B7/00
Filed: 2006-06-08
Abstract: A method and apparatus to inhibit the piracy of motion pictures in theaters by taking advantage of the frame rate discrepancies between film (or digital) display and video camcorders. By alternating specific image display intervals and, shuttering cadences, or with digital video projectors commanding a similar modified display via the digital projector's blanking and display capabilities, so that the projected images occur in a random and/or phase shifted manner, objectionable distortions are produced in an illicitly captured video image, while being invisible to theatrical viewers. In addition, various serrated, slit, multi-quadrant or spotted patterns may be used on mechanical shutters, or simulated on digital displays, to further degrade the quality of illicitly captured video by pirates in theaters.

Abstract: A fiber optic cable can comprise loose spheres or balls disposed in the cable's interstitial spaces, for example between the cable's optical fibers and a surrounding buffer tube. The spheres can have a diameter in a range of 20 microns to 2.5 millimeters. The composition of the spheres can include a material that absorbs water, such as a super absorbent polymer ("SAP"). The SAP material can be distributed uniformly within each sphere. The spheres not only can provide a carrier to facilitate inserting SAP  material in the cable during manufacturing, but also can cushion the cable's fibers when the cable is placed in service. When the cable receives stress, motion among the spheres can absorb the stress to shield the fibers from damage.

Inventor: WILLING BERT
IPC: G01N29/42
Filed: 2008-07-17
Abstract: The present invention targets gas sensors based on quartz-enhanced photo-acoustics, notably for applications where a very low price procial. The underlying idea is to replace the photo diode normally used for laser intensity measurement by the wall noise which is generated on the tuning fork. This eliminates the costs of the photo diode. The wall noise generated by the laser beam incident on the tuning fork is proportional to the intensity of the laser beam. Depending on the gas to be measured the wall noise signal can be separated from the gas concentration signal by using only one fork or a second fork preferably behind the first fork.

Title: Power tong
Inventor: RICHARDSON ALLAN S
IPC: E21B19/16
Filed: 2009-02-12
Abstract: A power tong continuously rotates tubulars for spinning and torquing threaded connections. Continuous rotation is achieved through a rotating jaw having grippers that grip the tubular and continuously rotate with it. Hydraulic and electrical power necessary for actuating the grippers is generated on board. A serpentine belt system turns the motors of the on-board hydraulic power unit and electric generators to supply the grippers with hydraulic and electrical power. The serpentine belt system is driven by a secondary drive mounted on a fixed frame. The rotating jaw is rotatably mounted to the fixed frame and driven during continuous three hundred and sixty degrees of rotation by a primary drive, mounted on the fixed frame. A fixed jaw is also mounted to the frame. Tubular grippers on the fixed jaw grip a first side of a tubular joint. The grippers on the rotating jaw grip the opposite second side of the tubular joint. High torque low-rotational speed applied to the rotating jaw torques the joint. Low torque high-rotational speed applied to the rotating jaw spins the joint.
