IPC: A01K15/04
Filed: 1997-11-18
Abstract: An improved animal restraining device (10) including a restrain-ing litter (12) and a support frame (13). The frame (13) supports the litter (12) thereon and has features which facilitate an adjusting of the width between support members (15) of the litter and an adjusting of the height of the frame. The frame has a V-shaped end (50) facilitating ease of access to a head of an animal resting on the litter. The litter has leg apertures (26) therein for receiving legs of an animal and allowing the legs to dangle below the litter (12). The frame has an entry side (44) for facilitating entry of the litter with an animal therein. The litter (12) need not be raised high above the frame and then lowered into the interior of the frame (10). The litter containing the animal and legs of the animal will enter unimpeded by the frame, through the entry side (44) into the interior of the frame, by only raising the support members (15) of the litter a little bit above the frame (10). A bearing surface is provided on the side of the frame for supporting a support member (15) of the litter therein and to effect a removing of a portion of the litter from the side of an animal resting thereon.

Abstract: L'invention porte sur des compositions bioactives d'enrobage pour substrats de polymères et en particulier sur un enrobage bioactif produit de réaction obtenu: à partir d'un squelette de polymère présentant au moins un groupe isocyanate libre pendant du squelette de polymère, et à partir d'un espaceur hydrophile à terminaison amine présentant au moins un groupe amine à sa première extrémité et à sa deuxième extrémité. L'un des groupes amine de l'espaceur réagit avec un ou plusieurs des groupes isocyanate du squelette de polymère en présence d'un agent catalyseur facultatif. Un agent bioactif se trouve alors lié par covalence à l'extrémité n'ayant pas réagi de l'espaceur en présence d'un catalyseur. L'invention porte également sur des compositions d'enrobage pour substrats et sur leurs procédés de préparation.

Patent CA-2280351-A1 (CA)
Inventor: ZIESSE NORMAN GERARD
IPC: H04Q7/30
Filed: 1999-08-18
Abstract: To address the issue of adding additional RF carriers to a transmitted signal in support of subscriber growth, an antenna configuration is utilized with orthogonally polarized transmission antenna pairs. The orthogonally polarized antennas are preferably arranged in substantially a +45°/-45° relationship and substantially maintain co-phase centers. By utilizing pairs of orthogonally polarized antenna components, the number of antennas necessary to transmit carrier signals can be halved. Further, undesirable size and space limitations can be avoided without a substantial loss in output carrier signals and without substantial signal interference.

Patent CA-2292472-A1 (CA)
Title: Lithographic imaging with reduced power requirements
Inventor: D AMATO RICHARD J
IPC: B41M5/36
Filed: 1999-12-10
Abstract: Imaging of lithographic printing plates with reduced fluence requirements is accomplished using printing members that have a solid substrate, gas-producing and radiation-absorptive layers over the substrate, and a topmost layer that contrasts with the substrate in terms of lithographic affinity.      Exposure of the radiation-absorptive layer to laser light causes this layer to become intensely hot. This, in turn, activates the gas-producing layer, causing rapid evolution and expansion of gaseous decomposition products. The gases stretch the overlying topmost layer to create a bubble over the exposure region, where the imaging layers have been destroyed.      If this process is sufficiently explosive, the neck of the bubble expands beyond the diameter of the incident laser beam, tearing the topmost layer and the underlying imaging layers away from the substrate outside the exposed region. The entire affected area is easily removed during a post-imaging cleaning process, resulting in an image spot larger than the incident beam diameter.

Title: Geographical restriction in cellular telecommunications network
Inventor: WESTROOS ANDERS
IPC: H04W4/24
Filed: 1998-07-31
Abstract: In a cellular telecommunications network, geographical restriction is stored for a mobile subscriber in the subscriber's record (100A, 100B, 100C, 100D) in a database at a node of the network, preferably at a home location register [HLR] (24). In accordance with one mode of the invention, the mobile station is permitted to operate only in cells identified in the subscriber's record in the HLR. In accordance with this mode, only applicable cells listed in the subscriber's record are paged when a call is direct to the mobile station, and the mobile station can only originate calls and sustain calls from such cells. In a variation of this mode, calls originated by the mobile station in the applicable cells listed in the subscriber's record can be sustained when the mobile station travels into non-applicable cells. In accordance with another mode known as "soft" restriction, a first (e.g., reduced) tariff is applied to calls originated and received in cells listed in a geographical restriction field of the subscriber's record in the home location register, with calls to and from other cells being permitted at a second (e.g., standard) tariff.
