Patent CA-2212311-A1 (CA)
Title: Coverage of redirected calls
Inventor: LEE RICHARD K
IPC: H04M3/54
Filed: 1997-07-31
Abstract: Calls redirected off-net, which includes call forwarding and call coverage, is provided at the switch to which the call is initially directed (the principal party's switch), by monitoring the redirected off-net connection with a call classifier and listening for the appearance of ringback tone and the appearance of voice frequency energy. The call is allowed to be completed to the off-net covering end-point if voice frequency energy is detected before ringback tone appears or if voice frequency energy appears within a predetermined time-out interval. If ringback tone continues beyond a time-out interval, if voice-frequency energy is not detected within the time-outinterval, or if a call progress tone other than ringback is detected, further processing of the call is continued at the principal party' s switch to determine if another covering point is listed. If no other coverage point is listed, monitoring of the call continues until the calling party hangs up. A simulated bridged appearance is maintained at the originating switch to allow the call to be picked up at the covered station at any time.

Patent CA-2216016-A1 (CA)
Title: Method to determine a scheduled rate value to be used in a policing algorithm, and related policing device
Inventor: METZ EDOUARD
IPC: H04Q3/00
Filed: 1997-10-07
Abstract: In a connection between an origin node (S, VS1) and a destination node(D, VD2), data traffic is policed by a policing device (POL) so that traffic descriptors in a traffic contract between subscriber and network provider and rules specified in standards have to be respected by the origin node (S, VS1), unless data will be discarded by the policer (POL). To control its cell transmitrate, the origin node (S, VS1) regularly transmits resource management cells (FRM) which are returned by nodes along the path to the destination (D, VD2). Once reflected, the resource management cells (FRM) become backward resource management cells (BRM). Each time such a backward resource management cell (BRM) passes the policing device (POL), the policer determines a scheduled rate value (R_first, R_last) and associated scheduled time value (T_first, T_last) and memorises both values in a list of scheduled rate values. The information in this list is used by the policer (POL) any time the actual policing rate (APR) has to be determined. To determine a scheduled rate value (R_first, R_last) at arrival of a backward resource management cell (BRM), the policer (POL) according to the present invention, also uses information deduced from a forward resource management cell (FRM).

Title: Midstream urine collector with deflection shield
Inventor: CAWOOD CHARLES DAVID
IPC: G01N33/50
Filed: 1997-11-13
Abstract: A midstream urine collector is disclosed having an open-ended funnel-shaped body with a cup mounted therein, the cup having an upwardly-directed mouth over which a cover of water-soluble material extends.          The  cup  is  substantially  smaller  than  the  flow passage through the body so as to permit the downward flow of urine through the passage past the cup.  A deflector in the form of a disc-shaped shield is mounted within  the  funnel-shaped  body  above  the water-soluble cover to protect the cover against rupture that might otherwise occur if the cover were impacted squarely by a forceful stream of urine as a patient commences voiding into the collector.

IPC: G09F3/00
Filed: 1997-04-09
Abstract: A process for producing multilayered microparticles for marking and later identifying substances or objects of any desired type, even animals and plants, has the following steps: several marking layers are successively applied in the liquid state onto a web-shaped or sheet-shaped substrate, each layer being dried and/or hardened before the next marking layer is applied, until a stack of layers of the desired type and in the desired order is obtained; the substrate is separated from the stack of layers; and the stack of layers is crushed into multilayered microparticles without affecting the integrity of the series of marking layers. A first disclosed process is characterised in that the individual marking layers are applied by a printing process. Alternative processes are characterised in that the individual marking layers are applied by bronzing, by spray painting or by roll coating.

Title: Disk recording/reproducing device
Inventor: DOI MAKOTO
IPC: G11B17/028
Filed: 1998-03-25
Abstract: A disk recording/reproducing device includes a power transmitting mechanism which transmits movement of a pickup while engaging with the pickup, and a disk retaining mechanism which, in response to the movement of the pickup transmitted by the power transmitting mechanism, retains a disk on a turntable or releases retention of the disk. Radially inward movement of the pickup causes the disk retaining mechanism to retain the disk on the turntable, while radially outward movement of the pickup causes the disk retaining mechanism to release retention of the disk. For accomplishing the release of the retention of the disk upon the radially outward movement of the pickup, an operation switching mechanism is provided for changing a position of the power transmitting mechanism to cause the power transmitting mechanism to engage with the pickup upon the radially outward movement of the pickup.

Abstract: A road surface light reflector is provided for use in complementary recesses in roads, to indicate the position of  centerlines  or  sidelines  on  roads  in  a  nocturnal environment by reflecting the light emitted by the headlights of incoming vehicles.  The reflector has a discoid main body which is destined to be embedded into a road hole, so as to form a flat exposed top surface therewith, thus not protruding above the road level.   The reflector main body is made of rubber, and its top portion comprises small glass particles embedded therein and  covering the  reflector  exposed top surface, for providing a reflective exposed top surface.  An alternate embodiment provides glass particles mixed throughout the whole depth of the rubber main body.  The rubber main body is   fixedly   anchored   inside   its   hole   through   the instrumentality of glue.   The reflector according to the invention thus has a low production cost and can be used on roads that are likely to be snow plowed, since it does not protrude above the road level.

Title: Air regulator for vehicles
Inventor: IZAWA TOMOKI
IPC: B60H1/00
Filed: 1998-04-24
Abstract: The air regulator for vehicles of the present invention is provided with, within a casing, an evaporator which cools air, a heater which reheats the air cooled by the evaporator, and an air mix damper which is disposed on the downstream side of the evaporator and on the upstream side of the heater and in close proximity thereto, and which regulates the amount of air passing through the heater; a heat reflecting surface is formed on the heater side of the air mix damper.  By means of this, it is possible to prevent the thermal deformation of the air mix damper by reflecting the radiation from the heater side using the heat reflecting surface.  Accordingly, the sliding problems of the air mix damper can be prevented.

Title: Digital broadcast receiving device
Inventor: YAMADA MASAHIRO
IPC: H04N5/44
Filed: 1998-07-21
Abstract: A digital broadcast receiving device includes a first processor for extracting added information, storage means for storing the added information, and a second processor having a low power consumption mode and a normal power mode, for effecting the circuit control for the watching and listening operation according to a preset program and the added information.          The first processor informs the second processor that the added information is extracted, the second processor changes the mode thereof to the normal power mode when it is informed from the first processor that the added information is extracted while it is set in the low power consumption mode in the standby state, writes the added information extracted by the first processor into the storage means, and changes the mode thereof into the low power consumption mode after completion of the write operation.  As a result, when the digital broadcast in which added information is periodically updated is received, the added information can be updated while the power consumption is suppressed to minimum in the standby state and the watching and listening operation can be rapidly started at the time of changeover from the standby state to the watching and listening state.
