Patent CA-2119143-A1 (CA)
Title: Wavelength Stabilization
Inventor: LASKOSKIE CLARENCE E
IPC: H01S3/10
Filed: 1992-12-04
Abstract: An optical source (11) emits a source optical signal (12) having a source optical signal power and a wavelength. A splitter (14) or other similar device splits the source optical signal into a first optical signal (15) having a first optical signal power and into a second optical signal (17) having a second optical signal power such that the source optical signal power is split between the first optical signal power and the second optical signal power. This split is dependent upon the wavelength of the source opti-cal signal (11). A first detector (21) detects the first optical signal power and a second detector (22) detects the second optical sig-nal power. A controller (25) responds to the first (21) and second (22) detectors in order to control the wavelength of the source optical signal (11).

Patent CA-2136389-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SENFT RICHARD E
IPC: B31D1/02
Filed: 1994-11-22
Abstract: A method and apparatus for producing internally apertured pressure-sensitive labels adhered to a non-apertured liner begins with a label web adhered to a first liner.  The internal aperture shapes are cut through the web only and not through the liner, forming apperture slugs separate from the web.  The first liner is then removed from the web, and the separate aperture slugs adhere to and are removed with the liner.  Next, the web, with apertures cut out, is adhered to a second liner and the label peripheries, in registry with the apertures, are cut through the web only and not through the liner, forming labels separate from the web.  Finally, the web is removed from the second liner, leaving individually internally apertured labels on the non-apertured second liner.

Patent CA-2144384-A1 (CA)
Inventor: KORT LELAND B
IPC: B60R21/26
Filed: 1995-03-10
Abstract: A hybrid inflator for a vehicle passenger restraint system comprises a center tie having upper and lower ends, and a curved, continuous vessel wall secured to the upper and lower ends of and surrounding the center tie to define a pressure chamber storing inert compressed gas.  The center tie defines a combustion chamber extending from the lower end thereof, the combustion chamber receiving pyrotechnic gaseous heat source material and a squib for igniting it.  The center tie further defines a directional inlet port extending from the combustion chamber into the pressure chamber and a rupturable diaphragm seals the inlet port until ignition of the pyrotechnic generant.          The center tie also defines a directional outlet vent extending from the pressure chamber adjacent the upper end of the center tie, the directional outlet vent being oriented substantially opposed the inlet port.  The outlet vent is part of an outlet passage from the pressure chamber through the upper end of the center tie,  including an orifice cavity and outlet orifice, oriented to provide further turns in the gas flow path.   A rupturable diaphragm seals the outlet passage until ignition of the gas generant.  A diffuser provides an additional change of direction of the outlet path.

Title: Polyionic Insoluble Hydrogels Comprising Xanthan
Inventor: CHORNET ESTEBAN
IPC: A61K9/52
Filed: 1995-04-03
Abstract: A method for the preparation of insoluble hydrogels from the complexation of polycations and xanthan is reported. Stable hydrogels capable of retaining between 65 and 95% weight water were prepared particularly with chitosan and xanthan. The water retention and properties of the hydrogels were studied as a function of the degree  of  acetylation  of  chitosan  and  the  ratio chitosan/xanthan used in the preparation of the gel.          The chitosan-xanthan complex was used to immobilize biological material.  Hydrogels containing enzymes (for example endo-1,4-.beta.-xylanase and protease)  either as single enzymes or as a binary system have been prepared.          Immobilization  varied  between 85  and  98%.   The immobilized xylanase activity was significantly greater with respect to the free enzyme while the binary enzyme system promoted protease activity.   Other hydrogels prepared with polybasic drugs complexed to xanthan with or without chitosan have been prepared.  These complexes slowly dissociate  in acidic media  and provide  for sustained release of compounds in near neutral pHs.          Gels containing chitosan are stable in all physiological pHs and the immobilized molecules are released therefrom by diffusion.

Title: Object-oriented video framework system
Inventor: ZIAS JEFF A
IPC: G06F9/44
Filed: 1994-01-05
Abstract: A video framework for use in a data processing system provides parallel hierarchies of video device drivers and video device handles, which are created by video device driver objects, and a hierarchy of data encapsulators contained by a subclass of the hierarchy of video device handles to encapsulate configuration information describing the functionality of a display connected to a data processing system. Applications access video device drivers through ones of the video device handles at respective levels of the video device handle hierarchy. When a change of configuration is made or requested in for the data processing system or any display connected thereto, corresponding video display handles issue a signal to lock down drawing tasks before video handles are created or altered to carry out the display devices without loss of information displayed to a user and maintains a default functionality of displays connected to the data processing system.

Title: Four-way table hockey
Inventor: GORDON IAN GEORGE
IPC: A63F7/07
Filed: 1995-07-21
Abstract: Table top hockey is a well known game for two players. This invention is a table top hockey game to be played by four players and involves a completely new version of the game of hockey.          The game is mounted on a board (the rink) which may be in the shape of a square, round, octagon or four leaf clover. Unlike conventional hockey or existing hockey games, this rink has four goals and four sets of players located at 90 degrees to each other around the board. Each of the four teams has one goalie and three forward players controlled by one of the 4 people who play the game. Playing this game is both exciting and challenging as there are four teams battling for one puck.          The size of each team differs from the sport of hockey in that each team consists of only one forward player, two defence and one goalie. However, since there are four teams on the rink, there is a total of 16 players to add to the excitement.

Title: Hybridized asymmetric fabry-perot quantum well light modulator
Inventor: WORCHESKY TERRANCE L
IPC: G02F1/015
Filed: 1994-08-18
Abstract: A device for converting a set of electronic signals that represent an image into a coherent image includes a two-dimensional array (10) of asymmetric Fabry-Perot (ASFP) (100) quantum-well-based optical modulators connected on a pixel-by-pixel basis to a two-dimensional array of drive circuits (150) located on an integrated circuit (160). Electronic signals received by the integrated circuit (160) cause the pixel drive circuits (150) to change a bias voltage applied across the optical modulator (100) section and, thereby, change the optical properties of the optical modulator section (110) of the device. The two-dimensional array can be used to impart intensity-only, phase-only, or phase-and-intensity variations onto a beam of coherent laser light (165) incident on the array. This coherent image can be used with other optical elements to form optical processing machines and optical storage devices.
