Title: Silver ribbon cable
Inventor: BRUNT DOUGLAS RYAN
IPC: H01B11/12
Filed: 1996-07-19
Abstract: An electrical cable for the transmission of audio range and higher frequency signals comprises a signal-carrying conductor made of silver, in pure or nearly pure form. This conductor is rectangular in cross-section, with a specified relationship between thickness and width. An additional conductor made of similar material connects the grounded, or zero potential portions of the devices being connected by the cable. Low values of resistance and inductance, as well as variable capacitance, are attainable. The overall combination of materials used and physical design results in a significant increase in cable performance.

Title: Fracturing fluid treatment design to optimize fluid rheology and proppant pack conductivity
Inventor: BRANNON HAROLD D
IPC: E21B43/267
Filed: 1996-08-07
Abstract: A method of fracturing a subterranean formation in a well bore is shown in which a gellable fracturing fluid is first formed by blending together an aqueous fluid, a hydratable polymer, a suitable cross-linking agent for cross-linking the hydratable polymer to form a polymer gel and an enzyme breaker. The cross-linked polymer gel is pumped into the well bore under sufficient pressure to fracture the surrounding formation. The enzyme breaker is allowed to degrade the cross-linked polymer with time to reduce the viscosity of the fluid so that the fluid can be pumped from the formation back to the well surface. The particular enzyme breaker utilized has an activity in the temperature range from about 60-300°F and at a pH range from about 2.0 to 11.0 and is effective to attack only specific linkages in the cross-linked polymer gel.
Patent CA-2183318-A1 (CA)
Title: Improvements in or relating to a method of transporting or storing perishable produce
Inventor: BOSHER PAUL RAYMOND
IPC: B65D81/18
Filed: 1995-02-17
Abstract: The invention allows cool rooms or sea containers designed for frozen goods to handle produce requiring more precisely controlled temperatures and conditions, e.g. vegetables and fruits requiring temperatures in the chilling range and often also needing control or modification of the atmosphere. Each load of produce (100) (e.g. of pallet size) is held in the sea container or cool room but is sealed from the air of the refrigerated environment by, for example, a plastics bag (56). The atmosphere within the bag is then circulated by a fan (12) (or by convection currents from a heating element) so as to pass through the load and around it via ducts (30) provided adjacent the bag (56). Heat exchange (50) between the circulating gas and the refrigerated environment, via the plastics film, serves to cool the load. However if cooling is excessive a heating element can be used to raise the temperature of the circulating atmosphere. Gas composition of the atmosphere can be controlled by scrubbing, flushing, etc. via pipes from a central unit or at each load individually or by choosing semi-permeable plastic for the sealing bags.

Title: Shelf for housing printed circuit boards
Inventor: MURPHY RICHARD G
IPC: H05K7/14
Filed: 1996-09-05
Abstract: A shelf for housing printed circuit boards in which a back plane has an extension in the form of a back plane extender printed circuit board electrically connected to the back plane and extending forwards from the back plane at one side of the shelf.  In a location forwardly of the back plane, the extender printed circuit board carries a connector structure which extends outwards from the extender printed circuit board and has connectors outwards from the extender printed circuit board.  These connectors are accessible either from the front or rear of the shelf dependent upon connector orientation.  This structure avoids the need for connectors on the rear face of the back plane thus allowing for the back plane to be located further to the rear and permitting increase in size in circuit boards to be mounted within the shelf.  The connector structure is preferably detachable so as to permit its replacement with a different design of connector structure.  The connector structure may include its own printed circuit board which when changed for a board of different design may change the operation of the total circuit board arrangement including the back plane.

Title: Fastener verification system
Inventor: LACHAPELLE JOSEPH G
IPC: B23P19/00
Filed: 1996-02-07
Abstract: An automatic fastener installation machine feeds fasteners to a fastener inserter and senses the orientation and size of the fastener in the fastener inserter prior to inserting the fastener into a fastener hole in a work piece to determine whether the proper sized fastener is properly oriented in the fastener inserter. A support structure holds the work piece in position under the fastener inserter and the machine moves to the next fastener insert position while a fastener feeder delivers a fastener to a fastener holder. A vision system creates an image of the fastener in the fastener holder and compares predetermined points in the image with corresponding predetermined points that would be produced by the vision system of an image of a properly sized and oriented fastener in the holder, and produces a signal for the automatic fastener installation machine to proceed with its cycle when it determines that a fastener of the correct size is positioned correctly in the holder.
