Title: Revetements solaires et articles dotes desdits revetements
Inventor: NEUMAN GEORGE A
IPC: C03C17/34
Filed: 1999-11-08
Abstract: Composites de revêtement multicouches sur des substrats en verre ou sous forme d'articles transparents, comportant des couches alternées de revêtements ayant des indices de réfraction élevé et faible, qui sont essentiellement des revêtements inorganiques, pour bloquer au moins les rayons ultraviolets par une combinaison des effets d'interférence et d'absorption des couches minces. L'article à revêtement multicouche possède un substrat en verre transparent, en verre teinté, en verre solaire ou en verre coloré, qui est visuellement transparent à un degré quelconque. Le substrat est couvert par une première couche de revêtement essentiellement inorganique contenant du métal qui possède également un certain degré de transparence visuelle et possède un indice de réfraction choisi dans le groupe constitué des indices faibles et des indices élevés. La première couche de revêtement est couverte d'une deuxième couche de revêtement essentiellementnorganique contenant du métal qui est visuellement transparent à un degré quelconque et qui possède un indice de réfraction opposé à celui de la première couche. La deuxième couche de revêtement est couverte d'une troisième couche de revêtement essentiellement inorganique contenant du métal qui possède un certain degré de transparence visuelle et possède un indice de réfraction de l'ordre de celui de la première couche de revêtement. Des couches de revêtement supplémentaires peuvent être placées sur, sous ou entre ces trois premières couches de revêtement pour produire des propriétés différentes de réflexion et/ou d'absorption.

Patent CA-2351234-A1 (CA)
Inventor: HARDTKE UWE
IPC: B21D28/28
Filed: 2001-06-19
Abstract: A method and a device for producing leadthroughs on hollow profiles acted upon by a high fluidic pressure in an internal high-pressure forming tool. Dome-like secondary shaped elements are formed outwards in a radial direction from this hollow profile by the fluid pressurizing. The secondary shaped elements are then reverse drawn into the interior of the hollow profile by a punch while held at the prevailing internal high pressure, whereupon, to open the leadthrough, a punched slug is cut out of the base of the reverse-drawn secondary shaped element by the punch. To ensure the process reliability when producing the leadthrough even in the case of a hollow-profile material having low formability and to retain the strength of the hollow profile in the transition region to the leadthrough, in each case a secondary shaped element is formed out of the hollow profile at two opposite locations. After the forming, the secondary shaped elements are each reverse drawn into the hollow profile interior by a punch in such a way that the bases come to bear against one another inside the hollow profile in the final state of the reverse drawing. The punched slug is severed from the respective base by one punch plunging into the other punch.

Patent CA-2371454-A1 (CA)
Inventor: ISHIKAWA KIICHIRO
IPC: B23B51/04
Filed: 2002-02-11
Abstract: A drill bit has an annular cutting edge to form a hole in a workpiece. The drill bit is received within a drill and rotated above 20,000 revolutions per minute. A  distal end of the drill bit defines an annular edge surrounding a hollow cavity. The annular edge both cuts and melts the workpiece during formation of the hole. The drill bit also defines an exit hole passing perpendicular to an axial center of the drill bit. The exit hole and the hollow cavity join within an interior of the drill bit to form a material passage way. Core material cut from the workpiece is collected within the hollow area of the drill bit during operation. Rotational forces of the drill bit eject the core material thus allowing the drill bit to cut multiple holes without manually removing core material from the hollow cavity.

Title: Method and system for multi-initiator support to streaming devices in a fibre channel network
Inventor: REYNOLDS ROBERT A
IPC: H04L29/06
Filed: 2000-04-18
Abstract: A method and system are disclosed for processing multiple commands to a streaming target device (A, D, F, G) through a SCSI router (16, 30) in a Fib er Channel network provisioned with one or more Fiber Channel hosts (14, 22, 26 ). The system and method are implemented in the SCSI router and include creatin g a FIFO queue (24, 36, 38, 40), receiving a first command from one of the Fib er Channel hosts in the Fiber Channel network, and forwarding the first command  to the streaming target device. When a subsequent command is issued to the streaming target device, the SCSI router can receive the subsequent command and determine whether the streaming target device has completed execution of  the previous command. If the streaming target device has completed execution  of the previous command, the subsequent command can be forwarded to the streaming target device. If the streaming target device has not completed executing the previous command, the subsequent command can instead be placed  in the FIFO queue. Upon execution of the previous command by the streaming target device, the method of this invention can forward the subsequent comma nd from the FIFO queue to the streaming target device. The method of this invention can repeat for any additional subsequent commands.
