Patent CA-2748724-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BARRETT JON
IPC: F24F11/76
Filed: 2009-12-30
Abstract: Distributed nodes, such as intelligent register controllers, of a heating, ventilating and/or air conditioning (HVAC) system wirelessly communicate with each other on a peer-to-peer basis, forming a network, and collectively control the HVAC  system, without a central controller. The intelligent register controllers collectively control the amount of conditioned air introduced into each region. Each node may base its operation at least in part on information about one or more (ideally all) of the other nodes. Each intelligent register controller automatically determines how much conditioned air to allow into its region, or how much return air to allow to be withdrawn from its region, based on information collected by the register controller, such as: current temperature of the region; desired temperature of the region; calculated amount of conditioned air required to change the region's temperature to the desired temperature; temperature of conditioned air begin supplied by a duct to the register; current time, day of week, vacation or other schedule data; temperatures of other regions and their respective desired temperatures; calculated amounts of air required to be supplied or withdrawn by the other controlled registers to change their respective regions' temperatures to their desired temperatures; or combinations thereof. Each register controller automatically determines when and to what extent to operate its respective controllable damper.

Title: Secure remote authentication through an untrusted network
Inventor: SHEETS JOHN F
IPC: H04L9/32
Filed: 2010-01-13
Abstract: A method for securely authenticating a user of a consumer device at an access device comprising the following steps. First, a dynamic data element and a first set of transactional information is sent to the consumer device from the access device. Next, the consumer device creates an authentication code as a function of at least the dynamic data element, a subset of the first set of transactional information, and a password.    The authentication code, along with other data, is then sent from the consumer device back to the access device. The access device then uses the authentication code to send an authentication request message to the service provider of the user. The service provider then attempts to authenticate the user by recreating the authentication code and comparing the recreated authentication code with the authentication code received from the access device.

Title: Emergency escape device for elevator
Inventor: CHEN YUNG-HSIN
IPC: B66B1/26
Filed: 2011-11-23
Abstract: An emergency escape device for elevators is revealed. The emergency escape device is disposed in an elevator system. The emergency escape device includes a motor having an output end linked to a reduction gear set. An inner gear of the reduction gear set is engaged with a gear of a rope winder around which a steel cable is wound.  Thereby the motor is released automatically from braking when the elevator system loses power and stops due to power outage or mechanical failure. Thus an elevator cabin is pulled downward by gravity and the rope winder rotates to unwind the wound steel cable. The steel cable goes down slowly so that the elevator cabin can goes down and stop at the nearest floor, allowing people trapped to come out.

Abstract: Customized articles of footwear are produced by providing options and graphics that are selected by a customer when submitting a custom order at a retail facility. The graphics are selected from a catalog while the options, such as a shoe model or a shoe size, are selected at an order interface rendered at a computing device. The computing device processes the order by uploading printing instructions associated with the customer-selected graphic or by converting specifications of the order into the printing instructions. The printing instructions are passed to a printer that is configured to move inkjet nozzles in a pattern and, concurrently, control a timed release of coloring agent from the inkjet nozzles based on the printing instructions. Releasing the coloring agent over the article of footwear physically applies a design thereto, which substantially resembles the customer- selected graphic. An oven typically cures the design via infrared heat over a timeframe.
