Patent CA-2307981-A1 (CA)
Inventor: LU HSIEN-SO
IPC: E02B7/00
Filed: 2000-05-09
Abstract: A water-proof bag for banking, uses the net built-in rubber material and is sewed by high-frequency wave to form a pillow shape bag of closed type. In the middle part of the bag's peripheral is sewed an anti-belt for each side, whose body and whose inner part is set with a plug type water inlet and some anti-belts respectively. This bag is filled with water by pump. After the bag is full of water, the plug inlet can be plug-in the body to form a shape with smooth surface which is good for stacking up. Generally, we adopt up and down piling and putting the convex shape of the upper layer fit to the in-between part of lower layer as its primary building construction, which enable their anti-belts press each other and function well for preventing collapse of the whole bags. This construction is novel and not obviousness, and is provided with advantages such as easy for obtaining materials locally, simple sealing work, anti-slide and anti-press, and save transportation fee, and meet the requirements of the Utility Model Patents.

Title: Hyper-concatenation across multiple parallel channels
Inventor: ROBERTS KIM B
IPC: H04B10/20
Filed: 2001-02-22
Abstract: A signal processor is adapted for aligning two or more hyper-concatenated data streams, each data stream being conveyed within a respective parallel channel and having substantially equivalent bit and frame rates. The signal processor comprises a respective channel processor for each channel for processing a respective data stream.  Each channel processor includes a framer, a memory, an interface, and an output timer. The framer generates a local strobe signal indicative of a timing of incoming frames of the respective data stream. The memory buffers incoming bits of the respective data stream. The interface selectively sends the local strobe signal to, and receives a master strobe signal from, an adjacent channel processor.  The output timer controls a timing of outgoing bits of the respective data stream based on a selected one of the local and master strobe signals.

Filed: 1999-08-09
Abstract: An artificial test soil (ATS) for "simulated-use" testing and cleaning validation studies of medical devices (including narrow lumened flexible endoscopes and other difficult to clean medical devices) is described. In addition, a cleaning validation test kit is described for users of medical devices to determine if adequate cleaning/rinsing has been performed on the medical device. The ATS formulations are based on the "worst-case" types and amounts of physiological soil components present in material recovered from patient-used flexible narrow-lumened endoscopes used for colonoscopy, bronchoscopy and duodenoscopy, but is applicable to a wide range of medical devices that might encounter similar types of soil.
Patent CA-2342765-A1 (CA)
Inventor: ROBBINS CARL A
IPC: G01V1/28
Filed: 1999-09-02
Abstract: A vertical seismic profiling system (100) includes seismic receivers (150) for placement on a drillstring (120) and surface seismic sources (170). One-way checkshot data may thus be measured without tripping the drillstring. A downhole acoustic tool (120) measures the local interval transit time of the formation (140), and improves the detection of targets ahead of the drill bit.   The local interval transit time may be applied to the time of travel from reflections in front of the bit to establish distance to the bit.      The down-going wavetrain may be deconvolved with the total up-going wavetrain to extract the nearest reflector and the relative acoustic impedance at the reflector. A synthetic seismogram may also be created (170) based on reflection depth data and corrected with checkshot data.

Abstract: A portable weigh scale system that can be easily fitted onto the standard forks of a lift truck or the like for lifting, weighing and transporting a load without modifications to the vehicle or lift forks. The weigh scale assembly is principally constructed from fabricated standard metal tubing sections, a fabricated metal attachment and load sensing cells that, as an assembly, can be configured in a number of ways to better suit different load transport and weighing applications. The load sensing cells that fit between and are protected by a fabricated metal attachment and metal tubing section are affixed to these with fasteners fitted through spacers. The top length of the assembly provides a load bearing surface that interfaces through the spacers, fabricated metal attachment, tubing sections and load sensing cells to provide accurate load weight data. The weigh scale assembly is comprised of two identical halves to form a pair that can be affixed together along their length if preferred. The said assembly relays load weight data through routed wiring connecting the load sensing cells to an electronic readout appropriately positioned near the operator. The design of the components and method of their assembly result in improved manufacturing efficiency and cost effectiveness, ease of installation and removal, improved load weighing versatility, compactness, lighter weight, portability and easier servicing.

Title: Clustered creature exterminating method
Inventor: KARASAWA YUKIHIKO
IPC: C02F1/34
Filed: 2001-09-20
Abstract: A clustered creature exterminating method exterminating clustered creature such as cyanobacteria in large quantity. The clustered creature exterminating method of the present invention comprises the steps of: pressurizing a fluid containing a clustered creature such as cyanobacteria through a pump; suddenly lowering the pressure applied to the fluid by injecting the fluid from nozzle groups 2a, 2b; and destroying a bonding in the clustered creature by a cavitation caused by the pressure drop. The nozzle groups 2a, 2b may be arranged so as to oppose with each other to collide the injected fluids with each other, which allows the cyanobacteria to be divided into many small pieces. As a result, the cyanobacteria lose the capacity to rise and sink at the bottom of water, therefore, they cannot photosynthesize to die out.
