Title: Bevel stop for cutting device
Inventor: HOLLINGER DAVID N
IPC: B23D45/04
Filed: 2002-02-05
Abstract: A cutting device, such as a beveling miter saw, includes a base, a work table supported on the base, and a cutting unit operably connected to the base. The work table includes a workpiece support surface and a stop portion. The cutting unit is selectively rotatable about a first axis between leftward and rightward bevel positions relative to the workpiece support surface. A rotatable stop member is coupled to the cutting unit and is selectively rotatable relative to the cutting unit to selectively contact the stop portion to thereby prevent rotation of the cutting unit in one direction about the first axis. The rotatable stop member and the stop portion may be positioned so that those elements contact when the cutting unit is at a predetermined bevel position, such as a vertical (0°) bevel position, relative to the workpiece support surface.

Title: Forced coaxially ventilated two stroke power plant
Inventor: KLEIN JEFFREY F
IPC: F02B25/26
Filed: 2000-11-08
Abstract: An internal combustion engine having a power cylinder (200), whereby the power, ventilation (comprising simultaneous intake and exhaust), and compression events within the power cylinder (200) completed define the cycle of the engine, with induction in the induction cylinder (100) being an auxiliary and incidental function to the cycle within the power cylinder (200), such that engine cooling and fuel efficiency are improved over prior art internal combustion engines. Interconnecting the power cylinder and the induction cylinder (100) is a transfer chamber which opens into the top of the power cylinder (200), which chamber in turn is equipped with a one way, pressure responsive transfer valve (60) for allowing air to flow into the power cylinder (200) when pressure therein falls below the pressure in the induction cylinder (100). An exhaust port (12) is likewise positioned near the bottom of the power cylinder (200).
Patent CA-2392073-A1 (CA)
Title: Photo-alignment of liquid crystals
Inventor: MILLER RICHARD JONATHAN
IPC: G02F1/1337
Filed: 2000-11-29
Abstract: An alignment layer on a first substrate (1) comprises a material which can be altered from a first to a second state by the action of incident light (5) of at least a first wavelength, the first and second states causing adjacent portions of a liquid crystal layer (3) to tend to adopt corresponding different first and second alignments. As the alignment layer is altered from its first to its said second state, realignment of the liquid crystal is facilitated by changing its ordering out of the first alignment, for example by applying an electric field (as shown from in-plane electrodes (7)), or by disrupting the liquid crystal ordering. The alignment layer may comprise a Schiff base, azo dye or a stilbene which can effectively realign in response to incident polarised light producing cis-trans isomerisation therein. The liquid crystal layer may be locally realigned by local optical and/or electrical addressing (as shown from (a) to (c) a local beam (5) alters the planar alignment direction at substrate (1)).

Patent CA-2395769-A1 (CA)
Title: Digital automatic gain control with feedback induced noise suppression
Inventor: JANKY WILLIAM OSCAR
IPC: H04L25/49
Filed: 2002-07-25
Abstract: Method processor and processor-readable medium for reducing the level of feedback-induced noise in the output signal from an audio automatic gain control circuit are provided. The method allows for receiving a stream of pulses comprising an input signal to the automatic gain control circuit. The method further allows for receiving estimates of respective high and low frequency energy components of the input signal.  The respective high and low frequency components are averaged, e.g., over a respective sliding window. An energy scalar is calculated based on the ratio of a predefined target energy level over a combined value of the high and low frequency components. A relating action allows to compare the target energy level to the combined value of the high and low frequency components. Based on the comparison results, the calculated energy scalar is limited to within the two limit values. A subsequent relating action allows to compare the values of the averages of the high and low frequency components to one another. If the value of the high frequency average exceeds the value of the low frequency average, the energy scalar is reduced to a value sufficiently low to suppress the presence of feedback-induced noise in the input signal of the circuit, and generate an output signal with a corresponding low level of feedback-induced noise. If the value of the low frequency average exceeds the value of the high frequency average, the energy scalar is applied to the input signal to generate an output signal scaled within the two limit values.

Patent CA-2407108-A1 (CA)
Inventor: WEST HUGH S JR
IPC: A61F2/08
Filed: 2002-10-09
Abstract: An interference screw for affixing soft tissue grafts during anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction comprises a threaded body axially extending between a face and a tip along a central axis, with the face advantageously being obliquely aligned with the central axis. The threaded body includes a proximal threaded section and a distal threaded section, each of which may be straight or tapered. The proximal threaded section is approximately 1 mm larger in diameter than the distal threaded section. The increased diameter of the proximal threaded section enables the interference screw to compressively secure the soft tissue graft against the cortical bone, while the distal threaded section compresses the soft tissue graft against the cancellous bone with an appropriately reduced force that is appropriate for facilitating bonding of the soft tissue graft to the cancellous bone and that is sufficient for minimizing any "bungee effect."
