Title: Method and system for drying out the leather side of a pelt stretched out and fixed in this position on a pelt board
Inventor: HEDEGAARD JENS
IPC: C14B1/58
Filed: 2004-09-16
Granted: 2012-07-17
Abstract: A method, a system and a pelt board for the drying of the leather side of pelts from furred animals, in which the pelt board is a hollow distension element, the surface of which has an open structure. The leather side is dried by changing the air within the distension element. The distension element is lockable in a position in which it has a first circumference, and can also assume a position or be force controlled to a position in which it has a circumference which is smaller than the first, which results in a considerably easier removal of the pelt from the pelt board. A quicker, more uniform and more effective drying of the pelts is achieved, so that "black spots" on the leather side are avoided, and the pelt is fixed in its stretched position on the pelt board without the use of clips/staples.
Patent CA-2541488-C (CA)
Title: Method and apparatus for suppressing sparks
Inventor: LINDGREN ROSS A
IPC: F24F13/04
Filed: 2006-03-29
Granted: 2010-02-23
Abstract: A spark suppression device includes a plurality of blades or vanes that are mounted transversely in a duct of an air handling/dust collection system communicating with a spark source. A controlled flow of air carries sparks from the spark source through the spark suppression device. Sparks are suppressed by turbulence created in the airstream from the blades that have a downstream curvature. The turbulence strips away a hot air bubble surrounding a spark ember, thereby effectively cooling the spark and significantly reducing combustion at the spark ember. Other attributes of the invention contributing to spark suppression include an overlapping arrangement of the blades that results in high-velocity impact of the sparks against the blades, thereby breaking up the spark embers into smaller embers, and creation of rapid increased pressure within the spark suppression device that also helps to strip away the spark ember from the surrounding hot air bubble.

Title: Auto-release vacuum device
Inventor: PERLMAN MAURICE
IPC: B25J15/06
Filed: 2006-07-07
Granted: 2014-10-07
Abstract: A vacuum device for a material handling system includes a vacuum device body and a sealing element. The vacuum device body has a vacuum passageway in which a vacuum is generated in response to activation of a pressurized air supply that forces pressurized air through a venturi device. The sealing element moves to a sealing position to substantially seal the vacuum passageway when the air supply is activated, and is urged toward the sealing position via pressurized air that is diverted from an inlet of the vacuum device to the sealing element. The sealing element moves to substantially vent the vacuum passageway when the air supply is deactivated. The vacuum passageway may be in fluid communication with a vacuum cup, which seals against the object when the sealing element is at the sealing position and the vacuum generating device generates at least a partial vacuum in the vacuum passageway.

Patent CA-2567524-C (CA)
Inventor: GIACOMINO JEFFREY L
IPC: E21B34/12
Filed: 2006-11-09
Granted: 2009-10-06
Abstract: An improved plunger lift mechanism comprises an internal hollow body having bypass orifices that, when exposed, allow fluid to pass through during plunger descent in a downhole tube to the bottom of a production well. A slidable sleeve slides along the hollow body to close the orifices, causing the plunger to rise and carry accumulated fluid to the well surface. In addition, the present apparatus comprises surface interfaces between a slidable sleeve and a mandrel to minimize a probability of mandrel and sleeve separation during the plunger's ascent phase and a risk of plunger stall. By integrating a plunger lift having a slidable sleeve with closer limits between the slidable sleeve and an internal hollow body, and a wider plunger surface area, the present apparatus can minimize radial movement which can occur during plunger drop and when impact occurs.

Patent CA-2576132-C (CA)
Inventor: JOSEF MARK JASON
IPC: A47L9/32
Filed: 2004-06-01
Granted: 2009-11-03
Abstract: The invention is a pivoting handle and control arrangement for a floor care appliance such as a vacuum cleaner. An actuator rod in the handle is utilized for remotely triggering a switch located in the lower part of the housing. The switch could be utilized for controlling a feature of the floor care appliance such as a surge control for a vacuum cleaner's suction motor. A trigger positioned on the handle is operatively connected to an actuator rod traversing the interior of the handle. The distal end of the actuator rod is in operative engagement with the switch when the handle is in the upright position. When the trigger is depressed, the actuator rod depresses the switch causing it to close. The feature controlled is thereby energized. When the handle is moved to the folded position, the actuator rod is folded with the handle and moved away from the switch.
