Patent CA-2455767-A1 (CA)
Title: Light-emitting pen with a light reflecting chamber
Inventor: TSAI HSUEH CHEN
IPC: B43K29/10
Filed: 2004-02-05
Abstract: A writing implement having a built-in illumination system and a light reflecting chamber includes a transparent cone of front pen tube accommodating an ink cartridge, a hollow cylindrical barrel surrounded by a light reflecting tube, a middle ring housing the light-emitting body and an annular light reflecting plate, a power chamber, and so on. When light switches on, part of the light passes straightly and directly toward the cone of front pen tube to light up the surface to be written on, simultaneously, another part of the light is reflected at the surface of the annular light reflecting plate and the polished mirror-like inner wall surface of the light reflecting tube and is propagated toward the cone of front pen tube. As a result, the emitted light portion hidden by the ink cartridge is indirectly covered back, a more even illumination result achieved, and a shadow made by the ink cartridge is reduced or eliminated.

Title: Victim selection for deadlock detection
Inventor: CHAN WILSON
IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 2002-07-24
Abstract: A mechanism and system are described for either releasing held resources in the case of a deadlock or to postpone requests for resources when a potentia l deadlock is detected. One technique involves a three pass algorithm for selecting a candidate, where the candidate is either a possessory entity or resource is used. The three passes are as follows: (1) determining the subse t of candidates, which have the CAN-BE-VICTIM flag set on; (2) If pass one results in a subset with more than one candidates in it, process that subset to determine a second subset of candidates based on resource priority associated with a resource type; (3) If the second pass results in a subset with more than one candidate in it, process that subset to select the candidate that has been running or held the shortest length of time.

L'invention est applicable aux turbines aéronautiques et industrielles.
Patent CA-2460556-A1 (CA)
Title: Movable barrier operations method and apparatus
Inventor: FITZGIBBON JAMES J
IPC: E05F15/20
Filed: 2004-03-10
Abstract: Movement of a movable barrier (10) such as, for example, a vertically-dropping fire door, can be controlled in an informed manner and with greater flexibility regarding the manner of movement via, in one embodiment, use of a motor (20) as a generator to resist the downward movement of the barrier. One or more dummy electrical loads (22) can be used in combination with the generator mode of operation to influence the degree of braking proffered by the motor.  In various embodiments, one or more sensors (25, 26, 27) can be used to detect local and remote conditions of interest to thereby at least partially inform the barrier movement decision process. A display (90) (or displays) can serve to provide various kinds of information to authorized personnel and an operator control (120) can serve, at least under some operating circumstances, to permit a person to locally cause a closed barrier to move to at least a partially opened position.

Patent CA-2463854-A1 (CA)
Title: Open or closed ended tire pipe apparatus and method
Inventor: COFFEY RAY STRATTON JR
IPC: B29B17/00
Filed: 2004-04-14
Abstract: The documented invention turns a major environmental and health liability into an asset by incorporating used tires into a generic pipe design. This novel use of a readily available waste product should help reduce the cost of any system it adourns. Due to the current fees for disposal of equipment and auto tires, in some cases systems may result with negative price tags. Examples of uses for these tire pipes are culverts, trombe walls in solar heating systems, vents for earth sheltered homes, conduits for wires, other pipes, etc.. Turning the pipe into a vertical position and covering the lower end with a cap results in tanks useful for agricultural and industrial purposes.
Patent CA-2465577-A1 (CA)
Title: Database report generation
Inventor: SEEDS GLEN MICHAEL
IPC: G06F16/22
Filed: 2004-04-29
Abstract: The invention provides for a method for producing reports for business intelligence that adapt automatically to a context, defined by a locale variable. A parameter map is defined, based on locale key and field names, and a report layout is produced that contains one or more macrotized database language expressions that include partial expressions built using the parameter map. Later, once a user selects a locale, the partial expression resulting from a lookup in the parameter map using the locale is used to modify one or more macrotized database language expressions.  Finally, the resulting valid database language expressions are applied to the database to produce a report.

Patent CA-2471548-A1 (CA)
Inventor: ROSENTHAL GUY
IPC: E04F15/04
Filed: 2004-06-18
Abstract: The present technique relates to a floor system that includes panels designed to be joined to one another, with an adhesive coating and a sealant at each joint to facilitate assembly. The panels include mechanically interlocking portions that mate when the system is installed. Disposed on the interlocking portions is a coating adapted to cohesively bond upon contact with itself under ambient conditions and without external activation.   The sealant protects the joint and prevents the ingress of moisture following installation.  Advantageously, the cohesive bonding of the coating is delayed such that the bonding does not obstruct the installation of the floor panel.

Title: Ensemble d'eclairage destine a l'eclairage externe d'un vehicule
Inventor: MARTIN JOHN J
IPC: B64D47/06
Filed: 2003-02-13
Abstract: L'invention concerne un ensemble d'éclairage d'un aéronef comprenant un appareil d'éclairage réalisé pour être supporté dans un emplacement sur le corps d'un aéronef. L'appareil a au moins une diode électroluminescente (13) générant une lumière visible et une structure externe recouvrant les diodes. La structure externe comprend une partie de transmission de lumière par laquelle passe la lumière visible émanant des diodes, et une partie métallique dotée d'une surface externe exposée à l'écoulement d'air externe. Un raccord de transmission de chaleur relie thermiquement les diodes à la partie métallique de telle manière que la chaleur des diodes s'écoule jusqu'à la surface externe et se dissipe dans l'écoulement d'air externe. L'ensemble d'éclairage est conçu de manière à se fixer dans une douille classique destinée à une ampoule électrique incandescente de navigation et à recevoir le courant électrique cédé à cette douille par le système électrique de l'aéronef. Des applications civiles de l'unité ont uniquement des diodes émettant de la lumière visible. Lorsque l'unité est destinée à un aéronef militaire, il a un circuit électrique relié à la source de lumière visible et une source de lumière infrarouge, et le circuit électrique est conçu pour traiter le courant d'entrée de la douille et donc fonctionne en mode visible ou en mode infrarouve discret. Lorsque le courant est dans un état électrique donné, comme par exemple une certaine tension, le circuit électrique envoie la puissance uniquement à la source de lumière visible. En revanche, lorsque le courant est dans un état électrique différent, par exemple, un niveau de tension différent, le circuit envoie la puissance uniquement à la source infrarouge, aucune lumière visible n'étant alors émise. On utilise également différent(e)s tensions-courants d'entrée ou caractéristiques pour amener les émetteurs infrarouge à éclairer dans différents motifs qui peuvent être programmés dans l'unité. La commande peut être complètement effectuée par une unique paire de câbles, comme dans les systèmes existants dépourvus de capacité de mode infrarouge. Pour pouvoir équiper les aéronefs existants, des unités de source lumineuse ont une forme adaptée aux ouvertures des lentilles existantes par des dispositifs de fixation incandescents de navigation.
