Patent CA-2302463-C (CA)
Title: Indicateur de mise au point pour camera
Inventor: DIACONU DAN MUGUR
IPC: G02B7/30
Filed: 1999-05-28
Granted: 2002-11-26
Abstract: L'invention concerne un système indicateur de mise au point pour une caméra(20) cinématographique. Cet indicateur comprend deux caméras (38) vidéo montées de chaque côté de la caméra (20) cinématographique. Les images produites par les caméras (38) vidéo sont superposées sur l'écran d'un moniteur (42). Les caméras (38) vidéo sont pivotantes et tournent en réponse à des modifications du réglage de l'objectif (26) de la caméra (20). Un transducteur (52) détecte les mouvements de l'anneau (28) réglant la mise au point de l'objectif. Un circuit de commande surveille la sortie (152) du transducteur (52) et actionne des servomoteurs (55) qui font pivoter les caméras vidéo dans des directions opposées. Les axes (43) optiques des caméras (38) vidéo se croisent dans le plan sur lequel l'objectif (26) est réglé. La personne agissant comme premier assistant-opérateur peut déterminer à quel moment le réglage de la caméra (20) est au point en observant le moniteur (42). Lorsqu'un objet visé est net, les images superposées des caméra vidéos coïncident. Lorsque l'objet n'est pas net, les images superposées sont séparées. L'indicateur de mise au point aide la personne chargée de la mise au point de la caméra (20) à régler de manière rapide et précise la netteté d'objets se trouvant dans le champ de vision de la caméra. Ce système permet de réduire le nombre de nouvelles prises dues à une mise au point imprécise et rend le réglage plus rapide. Les coûts de production s'en trouvent réduits.

Title: Buffer management for improved pci-x or pci bridge performance
Inventor: WHITLEY LAWRENCE D
IPC: G06F13/36
Filed: 2000-04-05
Granted: 2005-01-11
Abstract: Buffer management for improved PCI-X or PCI bridge performance. A system and method for managing transactions across a PCI-X or PCI bridge, and a system and method of waiting for, increasing, and/or optimizing the available buffers for transaction size or sizes across a PCI-X or PCI bridge. Transactions are processed across the bridge, and the bridge has buffers with actual available buffer space used for receiving and processing the transactions. Transaction size of the transaction is determined. The system and method sets an available free block which is a set amount of available buffer space that is to be freed up before certain larger size transactions are processed. The system and method waits for the actual available buffer space to free up to and reach the available free block. The certain larger size transactions are then processed when the actual available buffer space has reached the available free block. The processing of the transaction involves accepting the transaction if the transaction size is not greater than the actual available buffer space, retrying the transaction for processing by the bridge when the transaction size is less than the available free block but greater than the actual available buffer space, retrying the transaction by the bridge when the transaction size is greater than the available free block and greater than the available buffer space until the available buffer space is greater than or equal to the available free block, and accepting the transaction and then disconnecting once the actual available buffers are filled or at an end of the transaction.

Title: Climbing rocks with full outer grip
Inventor: ZEILINGER BRIAN K
IPC: A63B17/00
Filed: 2000-04-07
Granted: 2009-03-24
Abstract: The invention provides an imitation climbing rock that allows children to simulate rock climbing activity. The climbing rock is adapted to be attached to a wall to simulate a natural rock-like structure. The climbing rock includes a mounting surface, a body (e.g., a continuous side wall) and an endless grip that extends outwardly from the entire circumference of the body. The endless grip provides a hand/foot hold for children seeking to grasp the climbing rock as the attempt to negotiate a wall that includes several of the climbing rocks. The endless grip provides a hand/foot hold regardless of a climbing childs position relative to the climbing rock and no matter how the climbing rock is mounted to the climbing wall. The body, or side wall, of the climbing rock preferably includes a mounting portion that forms an edge with the mounting surface and a gripping portion where the endless grip extends outwardly from the gripping portion.

Title: Turbine inlet scroll
Inventor: ZAGONE JOHN R
IPC: F01D9/02
Filed: 2001-07-03
Granted: 2005-09-27
Abstract: An engine turbocharger includes a turbine inlet scroll for conducting exhaust gas from a laterally offset position to the annular inlet of a turbine wheel. An outer wall defines a generally S-shaped passage connecting an inlet flange with concentric annular outlet flanges aligned on laterally spaced parallel axes. An inner wall positioned near the outlet end of the turbine inlet duct defines an annular passage portion for distribution of exhaust gas to the turbine inlet. Three annularly spaced struts or vanes support the inner wall within the outer wall slightly upstream from the outlet flanges of the scroll. A straight vane is positioned on the central plane of the turbine inlet scroll to support the wall with the least possible interference with gas flow. Second and third vanes are positioned approximately 110 degrees clockwise and counter-clockwise respectively from the first vane and are formed as aerodynamically curved vanes which assist in redirecting the gas flow in an axial direction toward the annular outlet of the scroll to provide relatively even distribution of gas to the turbine inlet.

Abstract: A hand strapping tool has a lower gripper member incorporated therein which comprises an upstanding or up- wardly projecting lip portion or member which is integrally formed upon the upper surface portion of the lower gripper member at an elevational level above the upper crest por- tions of lower gripper member teeth so as to inherently de- fine a space between the upwardly projecting teeth of the lower gripper member and the undersurface portion of the lower end portion of the overlapped end portions of the strapping material when the upper tensioning wheel is re- tracted away from its engaged position with the lower grip- per member. In this manner, the hand strapping tool, and more particularly, the base member and the lower gripper member mounted thereon, can be easily and readily released and removed from its engaged position with the article or package being strapped as well as with respect to the over- lapped end portions of the strapping material. Still fur- ther, should the lip portion of the lower gripper member become eroded or worn, the lower gripper member can be simp- ly removed and replaced as a result of a friction fit mounting within the base member of the hand strapping tool.

Title: Semi-solid concentration processing of metallic alloys
Inventor: HAY GARY
IPC: H04M1/72445
Filed: 2000-07-26
Granted: 2005-03-01
Abstract: A metallic alloy is processed by cooling the metallic alloy from an initial metallic alloy elevated temperature to a semi-solid temperature below the liquidus temperature of the alloy and above the solidus temperature, and maintaining the metallic alloy at the semi-solid temperature for a sufficient time to produce a semi-solid structure in the metallic alloy of a globular solid phase dispersed in a liquid phase. The cooling may be accomplished by providing a crucible at a crucible initial temperature below the solidus temperature, pouring the metallic alloy into the crucible, and allowing the metallic alloy and the crucible to reach a thermal equilibrium between the liquidus temperature and the solidus temperature of the metallic alloy. The method may further include removing at least some, but not all, of the liquid phase present in the semi-solid structure of the metallic alloy to form a solid-enriched semi-solid structure of the metallic alloy, and forming the metallic alloy having the solid-enriched semi-solid structure into a shape.
