Title: Chewable soft capsules containing ungelatinized starch
Inventor: ROWE DENNIS
IPC: A61K/
Filed: 2004-12-10
Abstract: A soft, chewable capsule film suitable for medicament or foodstuff encapsulation, and a method of fabricating capsules from such a film. Such capsules demonstrate fast rupture in the oral cavity, good mouth feel and chewability, and rapid dissolution of the shell components. In particular, the modified starch is substantially ungelatinized, due at least in part to the processing temperature, and may act as a water retention agent to promote hydration. Additionally, gelatins are selected for bloom strengths that result in a robust capsule that may be fabricated at a thinner wall thickness than previously experienced in the art. Accordingly, such thin capsules have a smaller mass than traditional capsules of the same size and dissolve more quickly than chewable capsules having greater thickness. The capsules may be fabricated by a rotary die process at speeds greater than those generally known for soft chewable capsules.

Patent CA-2557913-A1 (CA)
Inventor: LUSSIER MICHAEL NORMAN
IPC: F42D1/045
Filed: 1997-12-16
Abstract: Detonator Apparatus, such as a blasting machine detonator, is provided with a miniature transformer having multi-turn primary and secondary coils. The transformer feeds a bridge wire detonator element, and has sufficient impedance to permit impedance matching with a carrier that may be as long as 7500 m. The impedance of the detonator is such that the detonator resists firing when subject to stray currents or commonly present power or communications signals. A blasting machine is provided that is specifically designed to provide a signal having a frequency in the range in which the detonator is sensitive. The blasting machine relies upon semi-conductor switching and timing circuits to control the discharge from a pair of capacitors, rather than upon an output transformer.

Abstract: A power breaking apparatus for preventing electrical shock breaks AC power supplied to electrical structures such as traffic lights, streetlights etc. if a leakage voltage is detected over a predetermined voltage or the electrical structures are inundated, thereby preventing electrical shock from inundation or leakage voltage. A plurality of inundation sensor rods of inundation sensing unit sense inundation of the metal posts. A plurality of leakage voltage sensor rods of the leakage voltage sensor sense leakage voltage. A  power break signal generation unit generates ground current if the inundation sensing unit senses inundation or the leakage voltage sensor senses leakage voltage over a predetermined voltage and shots AC power to the ground if a predetermined time lapses. A zero phase sequence current transformers (ZCTs) detect the ground current. A leakage zero phase detector controls wiring breaker and a magnetic switch to break AC power according as the ZCTs detect ground current. The wiring breaker detects transient current to break AC power if the power break signal generation unit shorts AC power lines.
