Patent CA-2751915-C (CA)
Title: Methods and circuits for improving the dynamic response of a dc-dc converter
Inventor: JIA LIANG
IPC: H02M3/00
Filed: 2011-09-09
Granted: 2020-03-31
Abstract: Methods and circuits are described herein which may be used to improve the unloading transient response of a DC-DC converter. In some embodiments the transient response may be improved by improving the way MOSFET switches in the buck converter are controlled at the point in time when a current transient is detected, and subsequently during the transient, in such a way that the impact of the current transient is mitigated. In other embodiments an auxiliary current source is used to provide rapid transient response required by the overall power converter, leaving the main portion of the DC-DC converter to provide long term stability.

Filed: 2012-02-23
Granted: 2015-11-24
Abstract: Un système dannulation déchos acoustiques tamponne des signaux latéraux à distance vers une ou plusieurs zones dentreposage. Une commande de retard filtre et retarde les signaux latéraux à distance pour faire corréler les signaux latéraux à distance avec les signaux latéraux locaux. Un noyau dannulation des échos acoustiques tire les signaux latéraux à distance du tampon à travers une commande de retard. Un estimateur de retard génère une estimation dun retard entre les signaux latéraux à distance tamponnés et les signaux latéraux locaux. Lestimateur de retard donne un niveau de confiance qui indique un degré de probabilité pour chaque correspondance potentielle entre les signaux latéraux à distance en retard et les signaux latéraux locaux. Le noyau dannulation des échos acoustiques annule sensiblement une partie de lécho ou une répercussion à lintérieur des signaux latéraux locaux basés lestimation du retard et le niveau de confiance.

Patent CA-2783387-C (CA)
Inventor: LAFACE RALPH
IPC: A47G33/12
Filed: 2012-07-04
Granted: 2013-12-03
Abstract: The tree stand apparatus provides lateral support and a large reservoir created by the conical shape enables fewer fillings of the apparatus. The numerous transfer orifices ensure that clogging especially typical of evergreen tree stands, does not occur, as full communication exists between the tree cylinder and the reservoir. The ability to easily drain and refill the apparatus ensures fresh water supply as well as supply of nutrients that further enhance tree liveihood. Problems of water drainage typical of after-use of a tree stand are negated by the valved drain bib that is disposed immediately adjacent to the bottom of the reservoir, there by ensuring full drainage. The apparatus provides fill holes that are diametrically opposed, with one fill hole radialy aligned with a float that slides vertically on a float slide to enable exerior viewing of internal water level.

Abstract: Le dispositif selon l'invention servant à rassembler des données comporte des première et seconde électrodes. La première électrode est couplée à une surface intéressante et la seconde électrode est coulée à « tout le reste » ou « à l'air ». La première électrode est blindée par rapport à la seconde, et par rapport à la plupart des sources de capacité parasite, par un blindage qui est commandé par une commande active qui commande au blindage de pister, et idéalement de se mettre au niveau du potentiel instantané de l'électrode. La seconde électrode est de même blindée de manière similaire par rapport à la plupart des sources de capacité parasite. Ces blindages aident également à limiter l'étendue jusqu'à laquelle les RIF de l'électronique du dispositif sont couplées avec l'un ou l'autre électrode. De cette manière le dispositif de détection permet de réaliser un rapport signal-bruit significativement meilleur à des bandes de fréquence intéressantes.

Abstract: Produced water, for example from a steam assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) or cyclic steam stimulation (CSS) heavy oil recovery operation, is treated to recover water that is reused to create steam. The produced water is treated in one or more thermal treatment devices such as an evaporator and a crystallizer. The thermal treatment device is seeded, for example with a calcium or magnesium salt. The thermal treatment device produces a blowdown or slurry comprising super-saturated solids and organic compounds. A solvent is added to the blowdown or slurry. The solids precipitate and are separated from the blowdown or slurry. The solvent may be recovered for re-use in treating more blowdown or slurry.

Abstract: The invention is generally related to operations support systems and more specifically, to a method of and system for deployed maintenance operations for equipment or assets. Existing web-based systems support organizations may be spread over large geographies, but only insofar as each part of that organization can remain fully-connected to the central server or data centre. The system described herein, on the other hand, allows portions of the organization to operate for long periods of time without a dedicated connection, while keeping technical records accurate. The system described herein allows a customer to set up a 'deployed site', which is effectively an environment that operates as a partial copy of the master site (which contains baseline data), and is only allowed to operate on a specific subset of the assets in the system (say, a fleet of aircraft). This deployed environment has all the required configuration and transactional data to run as a standalone system until the deployment is no longer required. At that time, the deployed site can be decommissioned by transferring the assets out to other sites, deployed or not.

Abstract: A power tool that includes a brushless DC motor, one or more motor sensors, and a controller, such as, for example, an electronic speed control (ESC) circuit. The controller is adapted to provide instructions to control the operation of one or more parameters of the brushless DC motor. The controller is also adapted to receive feedback from one or more motor sensors that reflect whether the motor is attaining the one or more parameters. The controller may also be adapted to have a learning mode, in which feedback provided during use of the power tool is stored by the controller as a program so that the same operating parameters may be subsequently replicated by using the program to operate the tool. The controller may also use the feedback to adjust the operation of the motor so that the motor maintains one or more selected or programmed operating parameters.

Abstract: L'invention porte sur un dispositif nCPAP (ventilation nasale spontanée en pression positive continue) pour aider un patient à respirer, lequel dispositif nCPAP comprend un corps de générateur formant une entrée, une chambre, et des premier et second circuits d'écoulement. La chambre dirige un gaz sous pression de l'entrée aux circuits d'écoulement. Les circuits d'écoulement comprennent chacun un premier et un second jet, un dispositif de direction d'écoulement et un conduit d'évacuation. Les jets émettent un courant de jet dans le dispositif de direction d'écoulement dans une direction d'un côté patient de celui-ci. Dans certains modes de réalisation, le dispositif de direction d'écoulement forme une première section de paroi conique dirigeant l'air inhalé vers le patient et une seconde section de paroi conique dirigeant l'air exhalé vers le conduit d'évacuation. Le corps de générateur nécessite des pressions de commande réduites pour parvenir à des niveaux de CPAP (ventilation spontanée en pression positive continue) cibles et réduit le WOB (travail ventilatoire) total imposé par comparaison avec les conceptions classiques.
