Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif permettant de cuire un matériau réfractaire. Ce dispositif comprend un mandrin pourvu d'une ouverture définie par les surfaces intérieures dudit mandrin. Ce mandrin est dimensionné de manière qu'il puisse être logé dans un récipient et qu'il définisse un espace intermédiaire entre le récipient et lui, l'épaisseur de cet espace correspondant à une épaisseur prédéterminée d'un revêtement réfractaire de récipient. Un dispositif de chauffage à infrarouge est disposé à l'intérieur du mandrin et orienté de manière à irradier une surface intérieure du mandrin. Ledit procédé permettant de cuire un matériau réfractaire consiste à introduire ledit matériau réfractaire dans un espace situé entre le mandrin et un panier, à irradier de l'énergie infrarouge à partir d'une pluralité d'éléments de chauffage infrarouge vers les surfaces intérieures du mandrin afin de chauffer le mandrin et à cuire le matériau réfractaire dans ledit espace au moyen de la chaleur transférée sur le matériau réfractaire par le mandrin afin de former un revêtement en matériau réfractaire pour le panier.

Patent CA-2417330-A1 (CA)
Inventor: WILLIAMS GERALD JOHN
IPC: A01K91/08
Filed: 2003-01-24
Abstract: A line release device for fishing downriggers which overcomes the traditional problem of small fish seizing the bait without creating sufficient pull on the line to cause it to disengage from the line holder, usually resulting in the small fish being towed and drowning and thus spoiling the action of the lure without the the fisherman being aware of it; the traditional line holding device has to be set very tight when fishing very deep because of the great drag on the fishing line; the invention allows the line holder to grip the line with great force, yet "trips" the holder when a relatively small pull is exerted on the baits so that the fisherman is instantly aware that a small fish has struck; as a side benefit, the small fish may be released while still alive, making the invention environmentally far more friendly than the known traditional devices used for the purpose.
Patent CA-2418690-A1 (CA)
Inventor: LIAO TSANG-TSE
IPC: B44C1/00
Filed: 2003-02-10
Abstract: A prize medallion structure, the structure consisting of a base having a minimum of one setting recess with a figured object of a matching profile nested in the setting recess. The figured object and the setting recess each have an interlocking coupling component and, furthermore, the respective mating surfaces of the figured object and the setting recess are irregular but superimpossable.     During utilization, the figured object is endowed with different colors by electroplating, while the interlocking of the coupling components of the setting recess and the figured object as well as the frictional contact between their irregular mating surfaces keep the figured object mounted on the base. As such, the invention herein is not limited to a single color as is the case with prior art prize medals, but enables greater variation by increasing the possible range of different color combinations.

Abstract: An air knife constructed in accordance with the present invention directs a curtain of air across a region and most typically is used to direct the stream of air against a surface. In an exemplary embodiment of the invention the air knife includes an elongated housing having an inlet for receiving air into the housing. The housing includes an elongated gap that extends along the housing that allows air entering the housing through the inlet to exit the housing and form a curtain of air. The elongated housing is made from a piece of sheet metal bent to define a hollow region into which air is forced. The sheet metal defines a gap along a length of the housing from which the air exits. The elongated air knife forms an angle with respect to a direction of travel of glass sheets passing the air knife so that a leading edge of those glass sheets passes progressively different parts of the air knife.
