Patent CA-2868859-C (CA)
Inventor: SCHWEITZER EDMUND O
IPC: H04L12/28
Filed: 2013-08-27
Granted: 2015-04-28
Abstract: The present disclosure provides for selectively enabling a primary communication channel upon receipt of enablement instructions received via a secondary communication channel. In some embodiments, a first intelligent electronic device (IED) may be connected to a second IED via a primary communication channel. In various embodiments, the primary communication channel may be selectively and/or temporarily enabled by transmitting an enablement instruction via a secondary communication channel. The secondary communication channel may be relatively more secure than the primary communication channel. In some embodiments, the secondary communication channel may also connect the first and second IEDs. Accordingly, the first IED may transmit an enablement instruction to the second IED in order to temporarily enable communication via the primary communication channel between the first and second IEDs.

Abstract: This invention provides suspension fabric product, methods of making such product, and methods of installing such product, in fall protection systems used in metal building construction. The fabric product is presented Z-folded on a core, with essentially all surface air removed, and wrapped in a protective plastic wrapping which extends into the roll alongside outer layers of the roll of fabric. Essentially all surface air is removed from the Z-folded fabric at a compression station as the roll is being fabricated. Use of the roll includes extending a shaft through the core, elevating the roll to a working height at the roof elevation, temporarily mounting the shaft to existing roof structural members of the building being constructed, and drawing a leading edge of the fabric from the roll and along a run of the space between next adjacent ones of the purlins and across the space between first and second ones of the rafters.

Title: Device for strip guidance in a hot medium (i)
Inventor: BLUMENAU MARC
IPC: F16C35/063
Filed: 2013-04-11
Granted: 2020-03-24
Abstract: The invention relates to a device for strip guidance in a hot medium, comprising a deflection roller (3, 38) mounted on supporting arms (1, 2, 34, 37, 54, 57) and a carrier device holding the supporting arms (1, 2, 34, 37, 54, 57). The device is characterized in that one of the supporting arms (1, 2, 34, 37, 54, 57) is mounted on the carrier device by means of a floating bearing (5), wherein the floating bearing (5) allows the mounted supporting arm on the carrier device to move parallel to the longitudinal direction of the deflection roller (3, 38), and in that an elastic counter element (12), which acts parallel to the longitudinal direction of the deflection roller (3, 38) upon the supporting arm (1, 2, 34, 37, 54, 57) mounted on the floating bearing (5), is present and counteracts an increasing distance between the supporting arms (1, 2, 34, 37, 54, 57). In this way, the technical problems of offsetting a temperature-induced length change of the deflection roller and avoiding an uncontrolled movement of the system are solved.

Title: Calibreur d'anneau pour annuloplastie dynamique
Inventor: CONKLIN BRIAN S
IPC: A61F2/02
Filed: 2014-02-24
Granted: 2021-05-04
Abstract: La présente invention concerne un calibreur d'anneau pour annuloplastie réglable et dynamique qui peut comprendre une reproduction d'anneau réglable, qui peut être ajustée sur une plage de tailles correspondant à des tailles disponibles d'anneau de réparation pour annuloplastie prothétique. L'actionnement d'une détente d'ajustement sur une partie poignée du calibreur d'anneau peut déplacer des fils de tension qui s'étendent à travers un arbre déformable et à travers une pluralité de segments d'articulation qui forment la reproduction d'anneau. Le déplacement des fils de tension entraîne la flexion des articulations entre des segments d'articulation adjacents, ce qui réduit la taille globale de la reproduction d'anneau. La libération des fils de tension peut permettre qu'un fil d'extension élastique agisse sur la reproduction d'anneau, ce qui agrandit la reproduction d'anneau à sa taille maximale au repos. De cette manière, la taille appropriée de prothèses d'anneau pour annuloplastie peut être déterminée avec un seul dispositif, sans nécessiter une pluralité de calibreurs d'anneau statiques qui nécessitent une insertion et une pose individuelles pour les méthodes classiques de calibrage par approximations successives.

Title: Ensemble roue coutre a angle reglable
Inventor: AVERINK JOHN MARK
IPC: A01B49/02
Filed: 2015-01-09
Granted: 2022-02-01
Abstract: Selon l'invention, un ensemble roue coutre à angle réglable comprend une tige rotative ayant un axe longitudinal défini par une partie supérieure de la tige. L'axe longitudinal n'est orienté ni verticalement ni horizontalement par rapport au sol lorsque l'ensemble est monté sur un appareil de labour. Une roue coutre est montée de façon à pouvoir tourner sur la tige à proximité d'une partie inférieure de la tige. Un actionneur fait tourner la partie supérieure de la tige autour de l'axe longitudinal pour provoquer la rotation de la face de la roue coutre autour de trois axes orthogonaux, ce qui modifie l'orientation de la face de la roue coutre par rapport au sol lorsque l'ensemble est sur l'appareil de labour. L'ensemble roue coutre permet de régler l'angle de la roue coutre dans au moins deux plans, ce qui permet une meilleure maîtrise de la quantité de sol déplacée par la roue coutre pendant le labour.

Title: Method of dewatering of a tailings stream
Inventor: JUNAID ABU SALEH MUHAMMAD
IPC: C02F11/147
Filed: 2016-07-28
Granted: 2020-12-15
Abstract: A method for dewatering oil sands tailings streams, in-line and in real time, measures in-line one or more of solids concentration, clay content and flow rate of a tailings stream and a concentration of flocculant of a flocculant-containing stream. After combining an amount of the flocculant-containing stream with the tailings stream, the resulting flocculant-enriched tailings stream is subjected to shear, based initially upon the measurements taken, and is mixed in a dynamic shear device to obtain flocculated tailings. Images or chord lengths of the flocculated tailings are obtained continuously inline in real time prior to a separation step. Signals indicative of a flocculation state of the flocculated tailings are derived in-line in real time using the images, the chord-lengths, or both, for automatically controlling, in real time, the shear applied for controlling dewaterability and yield strength of the flocculated tailings.

Abstract: Dans cette invention, des données sismiques PP et PS sont inversées conjointement dans une grille stratigraphique, à l'aide d'axes de temps différents pour les réflexions PP et PS. Le rapport entre les temps de déplacement des ondes PP et PS dans une même cellule de couche est maintenu pour dépendre du rapport entre la vitesse de propagation d'onde P et la vitesse de propagation d'onde S dans cette cellule. Puisque les amplitudes sismiques PP et PS et les temps de déplacement sont dus aux propriétés élastiques de la même structure, ils peuvent être inversés en même temps afin de fournir de meilleures estimations de ces propriétés élastiques.
