Patent CA-2289028-C (CA)
Title: Index divider label application and alignment kit and method of using same
Inventor: POLLMAN RUSS
IPC: B65C9/00
Filed: 1998-04-08
Granted: 2006-10-31
Abstract: A new and improved index divider label application kit for helping to segregate and identify groups of different types and kinds of documents. The index divider label application kit includes at least one set of precut, pressure sensitive divider tab labels disposed on a backing sheet and at least one set of divider sheets, each having outwardly extending tabs vertically offset from one another for receiving the divider tab labels. The labels are spaced from one another in the same offset manner as the divider tabs and the labels are attached removably to a precut strip that is secured removably of the backing sheet. A set of ties hold the pre-cut labels to the strip. According to the novel method of label application, the precut strip is pulled from the backing sheet, along with the offset labels. The strip with labels is then aligned over a set of stacked divider sheets so that the labels and divider sheet tabs are in corresponding alignment with one another. The strip is then laid in engagement with the divider sheet tabs and then, using finger pressure, each label is pressed into engagement with its corresponding tab. The strip is then pulled away from the divider sheets, hesitating slightly at each divider tab allowing the ties to tear leaving each label perfectly positioned on its corresponding tab.

Title: Locking and unlocking an application in a smart card
Inventor: SLOAN JERRY F
IPC: G07F7/10
Filed: 1999-03-05
Granted: 2005-08-16
Abstract: Locking and unlocking an application in a smart card (1208) allows for automatic authenticity of a lock or unlock command without the need for a personal identification number (PIN). The smart card (1208) is locked and unlocked by using a smart card device (1200, 1200a, 1200b) that need not have a keypad. The smart card device is a dedicated reader and locking/unlocking device, or can be a bank terminal, PC, telephone, etc. The smart card (1208) is inserted into the smart card device (1200, 1200a, 1200b). A lock command is sent from the device to the smart card. An application on the smart card is locked. The smart card (1208) sends identifying information, such as a password (PWD) and a card identification number (CID), to the device (1200) which is stored in a cache (506). The identifying information allows automatic authentication for unlocking of the card at a later time. The locked application cannot be used until it is unlocked. To unlock, the smart card (1208) is inserted into the device (1200) and an unlock button (1204) is pressed. The smart card device reads the card identification number of the card and determines if the corresponding password for that card is present in the cache of the device. If so, an unlock command is issued to the smart card along with the password.  If the password received by the smart card matches the password of the smart card then the smart card is unlocked.

Granted: 2012-01-31
Abstract: The adsorption speed of proteins from solutions on surfaces in the area of boundary layers is frequently so high that a depletion of the proteins results in the boundary layer. As a result, the entire reaction is transfer-dependent thus substantially disrupting the determination of the speed constants. Up to know, it has not been possible to remove these limitations with regard to transfer in preart total internal reflection fluorescence (TIRF) analysis chambers or biosensor systems having a liquid boundary layer of 10 µm thick and mass transfer coefficients of 10-6-10-5 m/s. An ultra thin liquid layer results on the surface having a thickness of 100-200 nm, whereby boundary layers having a thickness of less than 100 nm are also technically possible, with the aid of a TIRF flow-through shear analyzer in which a determined unit of volume of a fluid which cannot be mixed, for example an air bubble, is fed to the buffer current. The novel TIRF flow-through shear analyzer thus permits the generation of ultra thin liquid layers while increasing the mass transfer coefficients for proteins by 50 to 100 times such that the sorption speed constants can be determined without limitations with regard to transfer.
