Abstract: An air spring suspension damper assembly includes a first housing and a second housing which telescope relative to each other. An actuating member such as a cable is connected to a height leveling valve contained in one of the housings and attached to the other housing. The actuating member moves a member such as a rotating cam, a rotating valve plate and/or a rotating valve such that changes in the suspension height rotate the member. Rotation of the member selectively opens inlet and exhaust flow paths to control the air pressure in the damper assembly and maintain air suspension height at a predetermined height.

Patent CA-2472828-A1 (CA)
Title: Utilization of the approximate location of a device determined from ambient signals
Inventor: KRUMM JOHN C
IPC: G01S5/00
Filed: 2004-07-02
Abstract: The present invention employs approximate device locations determined from changes in the sensed strength of radio signals at different locations. In one instance of the invention, the approximate device locations are based on inference procedures that are used to process ambient commercial radio signals, to estimate a location or a probability distribution over the locations of a device. In another instance of the invention, approximate device locations derived from learning and inference methods that are applied to rank vector of signal strength vectors are utilized. Moving to such rank orderings leads to methods that bypass consideration of absolute signal strengths in location calculations. The invention utilizes approximations for a device location that is based on a method that does not require a substantial number of available ambient signal strengths while still providing useful location inferences in determining locations. Several location-centric services are supported, including receipt of location- specific information such as traffic reports, emergency information, transmission about device location, and time-sensitive promotions such as discounts offered by businesses for load balancing the provision of services.

Inventor: NYGAARD RICHARD A JR
IPC: H04L1/20
Filed: 2004-09-21
Abstract: An original composite eye diagram is reformulated by deliberately re-aligning its component eye diagrams according to some appropriate standard. This 'forced-alignment' shifts the components in one or both of the time and voltage ayes. Notice is taken of the shift(s) for each channel, and that shift data is appended to the data structures for the original components. The content of the data structure can be read in its original form, or, read and force-aligned. A force-aligned composite eye diagram created from the re-aligned components can then be displayed, investigated and evaluated with any of the existing tools that are used to analyze eye diagrams, simply by instructing the process that reads a component eye diagram data structure to reform that component as it is being read. Automatic forced-alignment of the component eye diagrams involves two steps. First, for each component eye diagram some specified property an 'earmark' having a (time, voltage) value is measured. Individual earmarks may be the centroid of an eye opening for each channel in the group, or representative point of transition. Second, each component is offset in time, voltage, or both, according to the difference between its earmark and some forced-alignment reference that is associated with the entire group of channels. That forced-alignment reference may be the earmark of a selected component eye diagram or an average of all of the earmarks in the group. Manual shifting of each component eye diagram by the operator is also possible. The forced-alignment shift data is appended to the eye diagram data structures. Patterns in the forced-alignment data can be discovered by inspection of a report showing the amounts of forced-alignment shifting. Channels in the report can be sorted according to their degree of alignment.

Abstract: The current software design and operation paradigm has many limitations. The invention provides an entirely new paradigm in which software is designed and implemented using lightweight software agents, each agent performing a single, simple operatio n, and working together with other agents as a community. These agents may perform such tasks as locating information, accessing databases, transforming information , and performing security operations. The agents may also update themselves when t he environment changes, communicate with other agents to address issues it encounters, perform self monitoring and issue a heartbeat to advise its status. As a result, software design and maintenance is much easier and faster, and the resulting software applications are more durable and easier to update.

Abstract: L'administration par voie pulmonaire de formulations de poudre sèche par inhalation aérosol a fait l'objet d'un grand intérêt comme alternative séduisante aux injections intraveineuses, intramusculaires et sous-cutanées, dès lors que cette approche élimine la nécessité de recourir à des seringues d'injection et à des aiguilles. Cette invention propose des capsules à base de cellulose remplies de poudre sèche, qui sont particulièrement utiles lorsqu'elles sont associées à des inhalateurs à poudre sèche. Ces capsules non seulement s'associent facilement aux inhalateurs à poudre sèche classiques, mais elles s'associent également aux techniques de remplissage par poudre classiques, ce qui permet d'économiser du temps, du travail et de l'argent. Cette invention propose en outre une nouvelle procédure pour déterminer, dès le début les conditions appropriées et optimales pour préparer de telles capsules remplies de poudre. Plus spécifiquement, lors du conditionnement des formulations de poudre sèche en vue d'une conservation à long terme, il est important de s'assurer que la teneur en eau de la poudre ne dépasse pas le point critique de teneur en humidité, qui est le point où la poudre perd sa stabilité physique et chimique. Cette invention décrit un moyen permettant de prévoir les teneurs en humidité d'équilibre, qui à leur tour peuvent être utilisées pour établir les protocoles appropriés de préparation et de remplissage des capsules.
