Patent CA-2495344-C (CA)
Inventor: PODKOPAYEV VADYM

Abstract: A control pedal for vehicles includes an assist mechanism to reduce the force require to operate the pedal over a portion of the pedal stroke. The assist mechanism includes a body having a first end pivotally connected to one of the frame and pedal arm and having a second end with a slot to slidably receive a pin mounted to the other of the frame and pedal arm. A biasing means acts between a portion of the body and a moveable stop on the body and the body is mounted between the pedal arm and the pin such that, when the pedal arm is in an "at rest" position, the pin acts against the moveable stop to compress the biasing means and as the pedal is moved from the "at rest" position, the biasing means exerts force between the pedal arm and the pin to assist the movement of the pedal arm along its stroke until the moveable stop reaches an end stop, after which further movement of the pedal arm is unassisted.

Abstract: Le système de détection de défaut de fonctionnement pour un moteur à turbine à gaz est configuré de façon à déterminer ou à vérifier une fois par période prédéterminée si la valeur du signal de sortie produit par le capteur se trouve dans une plage de valeurs permises et détermine que le capteur est défectueux lorsqu'au moins un résultat parmi les cas où la valeur de sortie, ne se trouvant pas dans la plage de valeurs permises, dépasse une première valeur prédéterminée,  et parmi les cas ou le nombre de valeurs de sortie générées, ne se trouvant pas par la suite hors de la plage de valeurs permises, dépasse une seconde valeur prédéterminée. Le système peut éviter une détection erronée de défauts de fonctionnement transitoires causés par le bruit où l'équivalent comme étant un défaut de fonctionnement du capteur, et peut détecter promptement un défaut de fonctionnement du capteur causé par un bris de fil ou l'équivalent. Le système peut donc détecter un défaut de fonctionnement du capteur avec une bonne précision grâce à une configuration simple.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for producing a modified eukaryotic cytoplasmic DNA virus by direct molecular cloning of a modified DNA molecule comprising a modified cytoplasmic DNA virus genome. The inventive method comprises the steps of (I) modifying under extracellular conditions a DNA molecule comprising a first cytoplasmic DNA virus genome to produce a modified DNA molecule comprising the modified cytoplasmic DNA virus genome; (II) introducing the modified DNA molecule into a first host cell which packages the modified DNA molecule into infectious virions; and (III) recovering from the host cell virions comprised of the modified viral genome. The host cell is infected with a helper virus which is expressed to package the modified viral genome into infectious virions. Examples of packaging a modified poxvirus genome by a helper poxvirus of the same or different genus are described. Also disclosed are novel poxvirus vectors for direct molecular cloning of open reading frames into a restriction enzyme cleavage site that is unique in the vector. In one model poxvirus vector, the open reading frame is transcribed by a promoter located in the vector DNA upstream of a multiple cloning site comprised of several unique cleavage sites.

Title: Universal pistol magazine loader
Inventor: TAL RAN
IPC: F41A9/83
Filed: 2006-04-20
Granted: 2010-03-09
Abstract: A firearm magazine loader (30) comprises a body (32) coupled to a movable press (40), a plunger (20) extending out of the press towards the body, and a magazine aligner (52). The body is hollow and adapted to fit and slide over an open side of a magazine (10). A spring (48) is positioned between the body and the press to force them apart. To load the magazine, the user squeezes the press towards the body such that plunger is over a topmost round (12) in the magazine, and then presses down the loader, causing the plunger to force the topmost round further into the magazine to form a vacant space below lips (14) of the magazine. This enables a new round (13) to be rearwardly, case first, loaded inside the vacant space. The user then eases the down force on the loader allowing the spring (16) of the magazine to force up all the rounds in the magazine towards the lips while releasing the press for allowing the spring of the press to force the press and plunger back to their original position. The magazine aligner is positioned inside the body for centering the open side of magazines of different widths and depth mounted in the loader in line with the plunger.
