Abstract: The invention relates to a calibration device for calibrating extruded continuous profile, in particular tubes. The inventive device comprises a plurality of successively arranged segmented crowns consisting of individual segments (18, 18', 18'') whose internal surfaces jointly form a calibration opening. Said successively axially arranged segments (18, 18', 18'') are assembled in the form of a segmented block (16). The individual segments (18, 18', 18'') of each segmented block (16) are arranged on a support structure (30, 30'), and the segmented blocks (16) are arranged, in an essentially circular form, in a body (12, 14) in such a way that the axially adjacent segments (18, 18', 18'') are partially superposed upon each other at each position thereof in a circumferential direction. Each support structure (30, 30') is connected to at least one fixing and actuating (20,20') device. The individual segmented blocks (16) which are associated to the support structures (30, 30') thereof are fixed to the body (12, 14) with the aid of said fixing and actuating (20, 20') device, the adjustment of each segmented block (16) being carried out in an axial direction. In order to facilitate the integration and assembly, each fixing and actuating device (20, 20') is divided into two parts, i.e. the first part (42, 60) connected to the support structure (30, 30') and the second part (40, 62) arranged in the body (12, 14), said two parts are mutually assembled in a separable manner.

Patent CA-2549694-A1 (CA)
Inventor: DODGE DAN
IPC: G06F11/00
Filed: 2006-06-07
Abstract: A computer system that is used in implementing a transaction based file system is disclosed. The computer system includes a processor, random access memory that is accessible by the processor, and a persistent data storage device that is likewise accessible by the processor. The computer system also includes file system software. The file system software is executed by the processor and operates to manage the file data and the file system structure of the files stored on the persistent data storage device. Additionally, the file system software maintains a transaction file that includes a plurality of transaction records. Each of the transaction records has a header section and a data section. The header section of each transaction record includes one or more fields that are designated to store information corresponding to a file transaction that is represented by the transaction record. If the operation of the file system software is interrupted, the file system software resumes its execution using a startup process in which a reconstructed file system is generated in the random access memory. During system restart, the startup process skips verification of the data section of a transaction record when the transaction record meets one or more predetermined criterion. Instead, verification of the data section is deferred until some time after the file system startup process has completed. For example, the file system software may verify previously unverified data sections of each transaction record representing a given file upon a first or subsequent access of the given file, provided that the file access occurs after completion of the file system startup process.

Title: Integration of direct binding sensors with mass spectrometry for functional and structural characterization of molecules
Inventor: LAING LANCE
IPC: G01N33/543
Filed: 2005-06-28
Abstract: The invention provides methods for the detection, quantification, identification and structural analysis of one or more molecules. Mass spectrometry (MS) is not a universal detector as all molecules do not ionize equally well leading to poor signal to quantity information. MS can be optimized to identify the specific mass of a binding component when the presence of a material is known. Colorimetric resonant reflectance optical sensors provide a universal mass detector in that nearly all biological masses give equally proportional signals. The combined methods allow selection and or detection with quantification of all masses binding to the sensor with the ability to identify specific molecules by their individual masses and structure analyses.
