Patent CA-2262878-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BARTOL LUIS EDUARDO
IPC: G05F1/569
Filed: 1997-07-14
Abstract: Two or more ALTERNATORs - each typically of an economical cost and of any mixture of types and capacities - are turned by a single motive power source -normally the engine of a large commercial truck or bus. The several ALTERNATORs are electrically connected in tandem-parallel across a SYSTEM  BATTERY and a SYSTEM LOAD. A corresponding number of electronic VOLTAGE  REGULATORs, preferably themselves of a fail-state type, respectively individually control the ALTERNATORs. One electronic voltage regulator that is modified to become a designated master produces a "universal" control signal in response to variations in a voltage across the SYSTEM BATTERY/SYSTEM LOAD.  This "universal" control signal is further used in the MASTER VOLTAGE  REGULATOR itself to develop a conventional signal providing regulation to an associated ALTERNATOR. The same universal control signal is provided by wired connection to all remaining, preferably identical, VOLTAGE REGULATORs, each of which is modified to become a FOLLOWER VOLTAGE REGULATOR. Each of the FOLLOWER  VOLTAGE REGULATORs produces a signal for the regulation control of its associated ALTERNATOR not by reference to the battery/load voltage (as would be normal), but rather by reference to the universal control signal. Failure malfunctions of one only ALTERNATOR, or one only VOLTAGE REGULATOR, do not cause either outage or runaway of the entire system, but instead only cause either reduced power generation capacity in the system, or runaway in one only of the ALTERNATORs. Triple alternator systems producing power to 480 amperes and more (typically at 12 v.d.c.), are routinely economically realized, and are reliably operated at reduced life cycle cost versus a single alternator-regulator system of similar capacity.
Patent CA-2265038-A1 (CA)
Inventor: COOPER ALAN NEAL
IPC: H04N7/18
Filed: 1997-08-25
Abstract: A display and control module (100) sends synchronization signals and camera display codes to a loop multiplexer module (200) and a home run multiplexer module (300). The loop multiplexer module has a plurality of cameras coupled to a loop multiplexer unit (210). The loop multiplexer unit controls the synchronization and selection of video from the cameras for sending to the display and control module. The home run multiplexer includes a home run multiplexer unit (310) coupled to a plurality of coaxial cables, each coaxial cable having at least one video camera (321-322, 331, 341-343). The home run multiplexer unit receives the synchronization and control signals from the display and control module and uses those signals for synchronizing and selecting video images from one of the plurality of cameras for sending to the display and control module. The display and control module uses the video signals from the loop multiplexer module and the home run multiplexer module to display on a display.

Title: Recombinant bhlh-pas/jhr polypeptide and its use to screen potential insecticides
Inventor: HEINRICH JULIA N
IPC: C12N15/09
Filed: 1998-04-14
Abstract: Promising groups of environmetally-safe insecticides consist of analogues of insect hormones, such as juvenile hormone, and antagonists of such hormones. The traditional bioassay approach for screening potential juvenile hormone analogs and antagonists is slow, expensive and inefficient. A recombinant bHLHPAS-juvenile hormone receptor, isolated from the methoprene-tolerant locus on Drosophila, provides the basis of in vitro and in vivo binding assays that can be used to discover new juvenile hormone-type targeted insecticides. Moreover, the nucleotide sequence of the Drosophila bHLH-PAS/JHR polypeptide provides tools for isolating juvenile hormone receptor genes from other insect species.

Abstract: A system and method for simulation, modeling and scheduling of process support operations in a biopharmaceutical manufacturing facility. The process support operations include those associated with the batch production facility (e.g., equipment maintenance and calibration, and quality control sampling and testing). The system and method, for process support operations associated with the manufacturing facility include the steps of identifying relevant data (e.g., maintenance, calibration, or testing) associated with the biopharmaceutical production process equipment (104). After the data are identified, biopharmaceutical production process equipment is used to generate a table of equipment and associated data. The table of equipment and data is then compared with a procedure time line to determine the scheduling of the tasks for the equipment in the biopharmaceutical production process (106). For process support operations associated with the manufacturing process within the facility, the system and method include the steps of identifying the solution and its volume, or identifying the soiled equipment and its preparation procedures (108). After identification, scheduling information is identified based on solution start dates or equipment protocols (110). The duration of the solution preparation procedure is then determined based on preparation vessel assignment and the scheduling information (112). An equipment preparation time line is also generated based on the size and capacity of the preparation equipment and the scheduling information (112).
