Patent CA-2385035-A1 (CA)
Inventor: CHAPLIN-SAUNDERS CHRISTIE MAUR
IPC: C04B33/04
Filed: 2002-05-13
Abstract: An improved preparation for making clay baking stones and other porous clay cookware for use in a closed barbecue or in a conventional oven, and a recommended method of manufacture are disclosed. Cookware produced using this preparation will be capable of absorbing thermal shock well in excess of requirements established for ovenware: "Must withstand quenching from 150 degrees C into cold water."(1). The disclosed preparation will withstand repeated quenching from 300 degrees C into cold water and returning to the hot cooking appliance. This preparation is adequately fused to prevent disintegration in the case of a throughly wetted product being subjected to freeze thaw cycles and retain its thermal shock absorption capacity. Also, thoroughly wetted product is not prone to damage caused by steam formation when heated in a household cooking appliance. The preparation can be applied to any reasonably plastic pottery clay known to be food safe when fired to between 4% and 14% absorption. This plastic clay is blended with 15% to 50% coarse grog or pitchers. The grog or pitchers must provide a minimum of 5% material retained at 20 mesh, plus 5% material retained at 30 mesh to the blend. The blended clay-grog/  pitchers are fired to the same temperature required to achieve 4%- 14% absorption for the plastic clay alone. Absorption of the blended material will be higher than for the plastic clay alone. From 8% to 20% absorption for the fired blend of clay grog are appropriate. A higher absorption rate would indicate a product with undesirably low conductivity for cooking purposes and/or a soft product prone to breakage. Lower absorption indicates a compromised thermal shock absorption capacity.  Hydraulic pressing in plaster dies using an air release system is the recommended forming method.  Manoeuvring product can be facilitated by the use of a vacuum hand. Edges of pressed product can be finished by compressing with a roller tool while still plastic. Further testing is required in order to define the minimum and maximum wall thicknesses, and maximum product diameter. Also testing will be done to determine thermal expansion rates for ceramic materials prepared in this manner. as well as thermal conductivity rates and hardness ratings.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un système et un procédé permettant le stockage d'images vidéo en temps réel hors site. Un site de stockage hors site est couplé à des serveurs de caméras sur les sites clients par l'intermédiaire d'un réseau privé. Chaque serveur de caméras est également couplé à une ou à plusieurs caméra de surveillance. Les images vidéo capturées par les caméras situées sur les sites clients sont transmises à un serveur hors site par l'intermédiaire d'un serveur de caméras. Les images vidéo reçues par le serveur hors site sont produites pour être visualisées en direct et/ou archivées dans une base de données d'images. Les utilisateurs peuvent rechercher des images vidéo en direct ou archivées par l'intermédiaire d'un poste de travail client communiquant avec le serveur hors site par l'Internet public. La recherche d'images vidéo est basée sur une interface d'explorateur Web. La visualisation en direct d'images vidéo est complétée par des fonctions de gestion de caméras en temps réel lesquelles modifient la position de pivotement horizontal et d'inclinaison verticale ainsi que de zooms (PTZ) de la caméra produisant les images en direct. Les instructions de gestion de la caméra PTZ sont codées par le poste de travail du client et transmises au serveur hors site. Le serveur hors site convertit les codes de gestion des caméras en chaînes de commandes lesquelles peuvent être reconnues par la caméra particulière.

Filed: 2002-05-23
Abstract: A fuel-fired heating appliance, representatively a gas-fired water heater, has a combustion chamber with a flame arrestor plate forming a bottom wall thereof. The arrestor plate has a spaced series of flame quenching perforations therein through which combustion air upwardly flows into the combustion chamber during firing of the water heater. A shield structure within the combustion chamber overlies the arrestor plate perforations in an upwardly spaced relationship therewith and blocks operating scale on the bottom side of the top combustion chamber wall, and/or a flue extending upwardly from the top combustion chamber wall, from falling on and blocking the combustion air transfer perforations in the flame arrestor plate.
