IPC: F23C13/00
Filed: 2005-05-03
Abstract: A method of depositing a catalytically reactive coating to a substrate including selecting a target light off temperature for a predetermined catalytic combustion environment, selecting a thermal barrier coating composition, selecting a catalytic material and codepositing the thermal barrier coating composition and the catalytic material onto the substrate in proportions selected to produce the target light off temperature when exposed to the combustion environment. The method may include controlling the codepositing step to cause the thermal barrier coating composition to interact with the catalytic material to produce a phase having a light off temperature different from the respective light off temperatures of the thermal barrier coating composition and the catalytic material. A catalyst element may include a substrate and a first layer comprising a thermal barrier coating composition and a catalytic material throughout its depth disposed over a first portion of the substrate. Other portions of the catalyst element may have a second layer consisting of a catalytic material and a third layer consisting of a thermal barrier coating composition depending on a stage of combustion with a combustion environment

Abstract: A contour or profile of a bore of a locomotive traction-motor support bearing structure, where such profile preserves the currently center-loading of the upper load zone but moves inboardly the lower load zone to a more general central location. The profile of the bore for the support bearing, according to the invention, takes into account not only truck-axle bending due to locomotive weight, but also that from motor tilt through bearing clearances, and couple action on the axle from heavy radial loads on PE support bearing and adjacent axle gear. The bore is configured such that the upper surface is horizontal, but the lower surface slopes downwardly in the outboard direction at an angle based on a function dependent upon the three misalignment factors.  In a preferred embodiment, the bore mid-section is defined as a frustroconical section of a cone with an altitude having a slope of substantially 1 X M1 to the horizontal, and an apex angle of substantially arctan 2 X M1, where M1 is the value of the misalignment factor associated with the locomotive load on the axle.

IPC: G06K5/00
Filed: 2005-06-16
Abstract: A package for preventing forgery and theft of transaction card information.  Transaction card information is concealed inside package so as to deter theft and forgery.

Patent CA-2575944-A1 (CA)
Inventor: CHIUMMIENTO PHILIPPE
IPC: H02H7/125
Filed: 2005-08-24
Abstract: A power supply system and corresponding methodology is provided for providing a self-protected power supply for use with electronic electricity meters. The self-protecting features are provided, in part, through the use of surface mounted resistive components corresponding to a resistor dropper portion of the power supply. The use of surface mount components also provides a general reduction in circuit board surface area requirements thereby providing a compact overall construction and provides economies with respect to reduction in manufacturing process steps. When the surface mount resistor divider is configured along with a half-wave rectifier, a low voltage DC supply is obtained from a direct connection to a much higher voltage AC mains source without requiring the use of coupling capacitors or transformers. Plural output voltages may be provided and capacitive filtering may be associated with the outputs. The use of a surface mount resistor divider in combination with surge protection elements helps to distribute any power surge over the power supply, which facilitates the use of less robust surge protection devices to achieve desired levels of protection.

Abstract: An electrically-powered fluid sprayer employs a piezoelectric fluid pump that includes an inlet port, an outlet port, a pump chamber, and a piezoelectric element that is deformed and displaced by electrical signals supplied thereto to vary the volume of the pump chamber. Such displacement pumps fluid into the inlet port and into the pump chamber and discharges fluid from the pump chamber out the outlet port. The inlet port is in fluid communication with a fluid reservoir. Spin mechanics may be disposed downstream from the outlet port of the fluid pump and upstream from the discharge nozzle. The piezoelectric fluid sprayer may be extended to include a dual chamber piezoelectric pump that pumps different fluids (e.g., a liquid and air). The output of the dual chamber pump is mixed in a manifold and supplied downstream to the discharge nozzle. Spin mechanics may be employed in the fluid stream upstream from the discharge nozzle after the mixing.

Abstract: A polyhedral toy that can provide a player with amusement with reality, that is light in weight, and that is less likely to hurt the player. A polyhedron toy (1) is a polyhedron that has elasticity and that has a fitting projection (3) on at least one face of it and a fitting hole (8) in at least one of the other faces of it. The fitting projection (3) and the fitting hole (7) are shaped so as to be fittingly connectable to each other. Further, the fitting projection (3) has a narrow section (5), a section reduced in diameter, between projection top section and a base surface (2). An opening section (8) of the fitting hole (7) has a shape whose diameter is smaller than that of the inside of the hole. When the fitting projection (3) is inserted into the fitting hole (7), the opening section (8) engages with the constricted section (5), in which state the fitting projection (3) is less likely to be pulled out of the fitting hole (7). Also, since the polyhedron toy is made of an elastic body, the player is not hurt. A structure that is slightly smaller than full scale or, inversely, a structure greater than the full scale can be constructed. The player can play with the polyhedron toy with more convincing reality.
