Patent CA-2375755-A1 (CA)
Title: Spring rockflex bearing arm
Inventor: ROZENDAAL JACOBUS A
IPC: A01B61/04
Filed: 2002-03-06
Abstract: A disc harrow has a frame and a plurality of earth working discs. Each disc has a central aperture for attachment to a gang shaft. A mount attaches the gang shaft to the underside of the frame and has bearings to permit rotation of the shaft in response to forward movement of the disc harrow. The mount includes a first structural member, a second structural member and a resilient spring connected between the two members. In operation, upon striking of an obstacle by the discs, the gang shaft is permitted to upwardly deflect by the mount to prevent damage to the disc harrow. The second structural member has first and second portions with aligned longitudinal axes. The first and second portions are rotationally connected to permit rotation of the second portion in response to an angular moment applied to the second portion by deflection of the gang shaft. The rotational connection permits the bearing to automatically maintain a preferred alignment with the gang shaft during deflection, thereby preventing damage to the bearing.

Abstract: A plow edge and a plow flap, for example, a snow plow edge and a snow plow flap, having improved durability and performance compared to prior art metallic or elastomeric edges or flaps. The plow edge and plow flap are fabricated from an elastomeric material, for example, a cord-reinforced elastomeric material. According to one aspect of the invention, the cord-reinforced elastomeric materials are elongated members fabricated from tire parts, for example, used treads from pneumatic tires. Tire treads having integral reinforcing cords, for example, metallic or polymer cords or belts provide enhanced strength and durability. The plow edges and flaps may be used on plows for transferring many types of media along a surface, for example, gravel, sand, water, or other liquids, but in one aspect of the invention, the edges and flaps are used for snow plows.

Abstract: During a communication, a channel is shared by several transmitting/receiving stations comprising a single master station and one or more slave stations. A station becomes a master station by transmitting traffic information on the channel. After the master station has stopped transmitting traffic information without the communication being concluded, it continues to transmit signaling information authorizing each slave station in turn to transmit traffic information on the channel. This transmission of signaling information continues for as long as the communication lasts, until one of the slave stations becomes the master station in turn by beginning to transmit traffic information on the channel or until the same station begins to transmit traffic information again, hereby remaining the master station.

Title: Treatment of hibernating myocardium and diabetic cardiomyopathy with a glp-1 peptide
Inventor: EHLERS MARIO
IPC: A61K38/26
Filed: 2001-10-22
Abstract: Hibernating myocardium is characterized by viable myocardium with impaired function due to localized reduced perfusion. Hibernating myocytes retain cellular integrity, but cannot sustain high-energy requirements of contraction. High plasma levels of catecholamines, such as norepinepherine, are believed to be predictive of mortality from hibernating myocardium. Likewise, high levels of catecholamines lead to cardiomyopathy in patients with diabetes. GLP-1 reduces plasma norepinepherine levels, and it thus is useful in a method of treating hibernating myocardium or diabetic cardiomyopathy.

Title: Splash skirt
Inventor: PARSONS DAVID R
IPC: A47L11/40
Filed: 2002-10-03
Abstract: The process of scrubbing, stripping and cleaning floors with a floor polisher cleaning apparatus has produced undesirable side effects. Such as cleaning solution and debris being splattered onto walls, baseboards and valuable items . Thus, there is a need for a specialized splash guard designed to prevent this undesirable splattering of material from the cleaning apparatus. An improved splash guard designed to prevent wax, cleanser, debris and the like from being spattered from a floor cleaning apparatus, the guard is circular in shape consistent with the shape of a floor cleaning apparatus. It surrounds the perimeter of the floor polisher as well as partially shielding the top of the floor polisher .The sides consist of two walls, an inside wall and a outside wall which slides vertically to the inside wall to adjust to different heights. The sides' walls are secured together with a loose two-part fastener. The outside wall ends are secured by a variety of easy release fasteners, this opening allows the invention to be attached and removed to the floor polisher, cleaning apparatus at will. Thus , the invention confines the cleaning solution and debris to the immediate area surrounding the floor cleaning apparatus

IPC: E05B47/00
Filed: 2001-05-16
Abstract: A latch assembly (910) having at least one control element (912) having a first path of motion in which a ratchet (916) is moved to an unlatched position and a second path of motion in which the ratchet (916) is not so moved, the path of motion taken by the control element (912) dependent upon whether an engagement element (942) is engaged with the control element (912) or disengaged therefrom.

Abstract: Pop-Up Indicator Lock Cylinder (1) with distinctive keys for the owner (600) , an employee (700), and a third party (800) whose right to enter is legitimat e only upon notice, or in an emergency. The pop-up indicators (750, 850) are brightly and differently colored. The lock cannot be circumvented by pressin g a pop-up in and endeavoring to turn the key, because the pop-up's barrel (75 4, 854) blocks rotation of the lock's core (20) unless the barrel is fully shot  forward. Once triggered, the pop-up remains visible and in a locked position  until the owner resets it. Meanwhile, the employee and the third party enjoy  unimpeded access. Since only the employee-key (700) and the third-party key (800) are capable of triggering their respective pop-up (750, 850), a poped- out pop-out furnishes immediate, primae facie proof of entry.

Title: System for cutting shapes preset in a continuous stream of sheet material
Inventor: ANDREWS RANDALL G
IPC: G05B19/42
Filed: 2002-12-10
Abstract: Method and apparatus enable cutting out shapes (S) preset in moving sheet material (10) by locating coordinates of one or more fiducials (F,F2...) in the sheet material (10) with a vision system (12). The fiducials (F,F2 ...) correspond to a pattern (P) for the preset shape (S). A cutting system (11) superimposes the pattern (P) relative to the located one or more fiducials (F,F2...) for cutting out the preset shape (S) while the vision system (12) is concurrently locating subsequent one or more fiducials (F,F2...) in the moving sheet material (10). The concurrent processes of cutting and locating subsequent fiducials (F.F2...) are repeated substantially continuously. Preferably, using two or more fiducials (F,F2...), distortion is detected and the pattern (P) can be remapped before cutting for accurate superposition of the pattern (P) and distorted preset shape (S).
