Title: Dosett loaded automatic prescription pill dispensing system
Inventor: LOVELESS CAL
IPC: B65D83/04
Filed: 2005-02-17
Abstract: This document describes a twenty eight cell, dosett which works in conjunction with a modified, existing Automatic Prescription Pill Dispensing System protected under Canadian patent 2217220 granted May 2001. It is a locked device in which prescription drugs are pre-loaded, by a pharmacist, according to the user's medication regime. This tamper proof device can only be unlocked by a pharmacist using a specially designed loading dock or by inserting the dosett into the user's Automatic Prescription Pill Dispensing System. This prescription pill dosett approach not only simplifies the loading of t he Automatic Prescription Pill Dispensing System but more importantly, remov es from the caregiver, the responsibility of having to handle prescription drug s. This pill dosett approach reduces the size of the original Automatic Prescription Pill Dispensing System by 50%, making it a more acceptable product. To summarize, this Dosett Loaded Automatic Prescription Pill Dispensing System not only meets all the practical pill dispensing needs of the user a nd caregiver, but is easy and safe to load, easy to operate, flexible and incorporates a comprehensive safety capability.

Abstract: A card-based identification system includes one or more terminals (40) which can communicate with a database in a server. Each terminal can receive a car d and includes computing means which can generate an impersonal card identifie r. The terminal includes an input device (20) which can be operated by a user t o input a group of characters known only to a user. The input device includes a plurality of zones (27) each of which is operable by a user to input a character. The zones are arranged so that character with which each zone is associated changes randomly each time a card is received. Also the zones (27 ) are arranged so that characters with which they are associated are visible only within a restricted viewing angle. The terminal creates an impersonal user identifier from the input characters and these are transmitted with the impersonal card identifier to the database for recording or comparison with stored data. The transmitted data is preferably in numeric form.

Title: Calculatrice musicale
Inventor: ALEXIS J LUC
IPC: G09B15/00
Filed: 2005-09-01
Abstract: La calculatrice musicale est à la musique ce que la règle à calculer et la calculatrice électronique sont aux mathématiques. De même que ces dernières ont remplacé les tables d'addition, de soustraction de multiplication et de division qu'il fallait apprendre par coeur, de même, la calculatrice musicale rend inutile la nécessité d'apprendre par coeur les 48 gammes diatoniques majeures et mineures ainsi q ue les gammes chromatiques et les gammes tonales. Cet outil permet de construire et d'analyser les gammes, les intervalles les accords. Il permet également de faire des transpositions simples et multiples. C'est un atout pour les enseignants et les étudiants d e musique, que ce soit au niveaux élémentaire , secondaire ou universitaire. La calculatrice se présente sous deux formes: 1) La forme linéaire: formée d'une règle ayant un curseur en son milieu ,comme une règle à calculer ordinaire, mais graduée un demi-tons. 2) La forme circulaire:formée de deux disques concentriques et également graduée en demi-tons. Sur les structures ci-haut décrites se placent des pièces amovibles qui servent à indiquer les degrés et les notes qui entrent dans la gamme, l'intervalle, l'accord à l'étude.

Title: Rapid start fuel reforming systems and techniques
Inventor: DAVIS JAMES M
IPC: C10J3/00
Filed: 2004-05-17
Abstract: An on-board fuel processor includes a microchannel steam reforming reactor (30) and a water vaporizer (40) heated in series with a combustion gas. The reformer (30) and the vaporizer (40) are both of a cross-flow panel configuration that allows for low combustion side pressure drop. Fuel is directly injected into the steam, and during a rapid cold start, both the combustion gas flow rate and the steam to carbon ratio are substantially increased relative to their steady state operating values. A rapid cold start can be achieved in under 30 seconds with a manageable amount of electric power consumption, removing impediments to use in automotive fuel cell applications.

IPC: B21G3/28
Filed: 2003-05-14
Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé permettant au moins d'éviter la fatigue du métal dans un outil (2) fixé à un porte-outil (4). Cet outil comprend un côté avant (6) conçu pour former des clous, des vis, etc. à partir d'un fil métallique. Le porte-outil comprend un espace (8) conçu pour recevoir l'outil. Ce procédé se caractérise par le fait que l'outil (2) comprend deux côtés (10, 12) formant un biseau évasé vers le côté avant (6) de l'outil. L'angle (A') du biseau est compris entre 0,5 et 45 degrés et, de préférence, entre 1 et 15 degrés. De cette manière, l'outil peut être serré entre les côtés de l'espace de façon que les efforts de compression soient introduits dans l'outil. En raison de l'angle formé par le biseau de l'outil et de l'espace, les efforts de compression peuvent atteindre un niveau élevé. Lorsque l'outil est utilisé ensuite pour la fabrication d'un clou ou d'une vis, les résistances à la traction produites doivent être supérieures ou égales aux contraintes de compression internes avant que n'apparaisse un état de résistance à la traction dans l'outil.

Title: Improved fracturing fluid and method of use
Inventor: BONEY CURTIS
IPC: E21B37/06
Filed: 2003-10-01
Abstract: Improved aqueous fracturing fluids are disclosed that are useful to fracture tight (low permeability) subterranean formations. Gas wells treated with these fracturing fluids have rapid cleanup and enhanced production. The fluids contain small but sufficient amounts of certain amine oxides to aid in the removal of fracturing fluid from the formation. By facilitating the removal of fluid from invaded zones, the damage to fracture faces in the formation is minimized. The amine oxides correspond to formula I, wherein R1 is an aliphatic group of from 6 to about 20 carbon atoms, and R2 and R3 are each independently alkyl of from 1 to about 4 carbon atoms. The amine oxides in which R1 is an alkyl group are preferred, and those in which R1 is an alkyl group of from 8 to 10 carbon atoms and R2 and R3 are each methyl or ethyl groups are most preferred.
