Patent CA-2607995-A1 (CA)
Inventor: STEWART WILLIAM DAVID
IPC: G01F23/22
Filed: 2006-05-10
Abstract: In a liquid sensing system (10), an RF signal is applied to a series-resonant circuit. The coil (65) of the resonant circuit is placed proximate to a fuel tank (15), causing electromagnetic radiation to propagate into the fuel space.  The fuel acts as an electrical load to the resonant circuit in a manner proportionate to the volume of fuel in the tank and/or to variations in electrical properties of the fuel itself. The loading effect of the fuel can change the resonant frequency and/or the Q of the resonant circuit. The loading effect of the fuel is determined by monitoring a change in one or more electrical parameters associated with the excited resonant circuit, such as a voltage across the resistor in the resonant circuit. Changes in this voltage are analyzed by a controller, the result of which is used to output a value indicative of level and/or composition of the fuel.

Abstract: The present invention describes compounds produced from an orotic acid molecule and an amino acid molecule. The compounds being in the form of amino acid orotate compounds bound by an amide linkage and produced by one of two disclosed methods; 1) reacting orotic acid or derivatives thereof with a thionyl halide, and then combining the acyl halide with an amino acid in the presence of dichloromethane and a DMAP catalyst; or 2) protecting the carboxylic acid of an amino acid and then combining the amino acid with a DCC activated orotic acid, followed by removal of the carboxylic acid protecting group. The resulting amino acid orotate amide has an enhanced stability in solution as compared to a related ester. In addition, specific benefits are conferred by the particular amino acid used to form the compounds in addition to, and separate from, the orotate substituent.

Abstract: There are several encumbrances to speed and forward mobility in land sailing vehicles, including their variously numerous friction sources, their lack of versatility as personal conveyances, and their relative lack of efficient directional manoeuvrability. This invention addresses them using: (a) a maximum of two, very large wheels that are not articulated for steering, carry electric motors as their hubs, have no machine bearings other than those of the hub motors, and due to their large diameters are more directionally stable and significantly less affected by roadway roughness; (b) an under-axle centre of gravity that facilities braking without rotating the vehicle's load or ballast, and facilitates extra load capacity which can be speed-enhancing;  (c) a four-way-adjustable aerofoil which can effect minor turns in lieu of conventional or differential braking;  and (d) regenerative motors that charge batteries under sail power and therefore deliver a broader opportunity for fuel-free mobility.
