Granted: 2010-05-18
Abstract: La présente invention concerne une manipulation de l'assimilation d'une source de nutriment dans une cellule microbienne. La source de nutriment est de préférence l'ammoniac. L'assimilation de ce nutriment par la cellule microbienne, de préférence une cellule de levure, est liée à une modification de la production d'un métabolite tel que l'éthanol ou le glycérol. Les cellules microbiennes de l'invention présentent, d'une part une première activité enzyme exprimable qui, lorsqu'elle s'exprime dans la cellule microbienne considérée, régit l'assimilation d'une source de nutriment par la cellule, d'autre part, éventuellement une deuxième activité enzyme exprimable qui, lorsqu'elle s'exprime dans la cellule microbienne, régit l'assimilation d'une source de nutriment par la cellule, la deuxième activité enzyme exprimable n'étant pas identique à la première activité enzyme exprimable, et enfin une expression réduite ou l'absence d'expression d'une troisième activité enzyme exprimable qui, lorsqu'elle s'exprime dans la cellule microbienne, régit l'assimilation d'une source de nutriment par la cellule, la troisième activité enzyme exprimable n'étant identique ni à la première, ni à la deuxième activité enzyme exprimable. Les cellules de l'invention sont capables de produire des quantités accrues d'éthanol dans une fermentation.

Abstract: A child's entertainment device can include a mobile/entertainment member that has a connector structure that can engage a receiving member located on a child support device. The connector structure can be formed as a button-like protuberance that engages the receiving member, which can be formed as a U-shaped aperture. The button-like protuberance is thus lockable in the U-shaped receiving member at a predetermined position while rotatable with the respect to the receiving member. In addition, the entertainment member can be removed from the receiving member by applying a force to it and moving the button-like protuberance past a slightly narrower portion and out of the U-shaped aperture. When the entertainment member is attached to the receiving member, the mobile/entertainment member and attached soft toys can spin and entertain a child. The mobile may be attached to a child support device such as a child's cradle, bassinet, swing, bouncer, or car seat, etc.

Title: Pre-dyeing treatment process and dyeing process for fiber products containing highly crosslinked polyacrylic fibers, pretreated fiber product, and fiber product
Inventor: OGINO TAKESHI
IPC: D06P5/20
Filed: 2001-09-14
Granted: 2009-09-01
Abstract: In fiber products (e.g. yarns, woven fabrics, knit fabrics) comprising highly crosslinked polyacrylic fibers (made of acrylic fibers by partially hydrolyzing a nitrile group to generate an amido group and a carboxylic acid group), fibers blended with the highly crosslinked polyacrylic fibers can be dyed in an even hue. A pre-dyeing treatment process for such fiber products (e.g. yarns, woven fabrics, knit fab-rics) comprising highly crosslinked polyacrylic fibers comprises a pretreatment step of immersing the fiber product into an acidic solution and treating it at a high temperature and an elevated pressure. A dyeing process comprises the steps of conducting this pre-dyeing treatment process, and thereafter conventionally dyeing fibers which are blended with the highly crosslinked polyacrylic fibers. A pretreated fiber product and a fiber product are obtained by the pre-dyeing treatment process and the dyeing process mentioned above.

Patent CA-2397635-C (CA)
Inventor: DOOLEY KEVIN ALLAN
IPC: H02H5/04
Filed: 2000-12-18
Granted: 2010-10-26
Abstract: An electric machine including a magnetic component, forming part of its rotor or stator that loses its magnetic characteristics above a certain chosen temperature is disclosed. This magnetic material forms part of a magnetic circuit that guides flux about the stator. As a result, any magnetic flux emanating with the rotor stops circulating about the stator above this temperature, and the machine stops acting as generator. The component is thermally coupled to windings carrying current from the machine's stator.  The material forming the component is selected so that the chosen temperature is lower than the temperature at which the machine would be thermally damaged. This, in turn, limits the operating temperature of the windings, and thus prevents overheating of the machine during operation, typically caused by a fault. Preferably this magnetic material is formed from a ferrite material, such as a Manganese Zinc ferrite material.

Abstract: A detergent collection tray is provided at a position spaced above a drain port in the sump area of an outer tub of a washing machine, particularly a horizontal axis washing machine. As detergent enters the washing machine during an initial fill operation, the detergent will be caused to flow into the tray and will be prevented from flowing directly into the drain. Therefore, the tray prevents the loss of detergent into the drain by functioning to capture or collect the detergent for use during the washing operation.

Title: System and method for facsimile data transmission
Inventor: JACOBS PAUL E
IPC: H04N/
Filed: 1994-11-15
Granted: 2004-10-19
Abstract: System and method for minimizing data bottlenecks in Low Data Rate Networks (LDRNs) that communicate facsimile transmissions. An LDRN is a facsimile network having a transmission data rate less than the data rate of the FAX machines serviced by the network. The system and method can be implemented in any type of LDRN, including analog and digital wired LDRNs, as well as analog and digital wireless (e. g., cellular) LDRNs. The system and method involve processing the facsimile transmissions in order to make the data rates of the LDRN and the FAX machines compatible, thereby minimizing any potential facsimile data bottlenecks that may occur in the LDRN due to its slower data rate.

Granted: 2007-05-29
Abstract: A multi-mode resistivity tool for use in a logging-while-drilling(LWD) syste m includes an asymmetric transmitter design with multiple transmitters capable of generating electromagnetic (EM) signals at multiple depths of investigation. An array o f at least three receivers is positioned amongst a transmitter array to detect the EM signals after they have traversed the region in the vicinity of the borehole. In a first mode, two pairs of receivers combine with the asymmetrical transmitter array to produce a plurality of compensated resistivity measurements. In an alternative mode, one pair of receivers, consisting of a receiver from each of the previous pairs, combines with the array of transmitters to create a plurality of non-compensated measurements. This multi-mode capability enables the resistivity tool to operate successfully in a wide variety of drilling formations and under a broad scope of drilling conditions.

Inventor: BENNER ROBERT H
IPC: G01S13/66
Filed: 2002-05-03
Granted: 2009-09-08
Abstract: A system and method for central association and tracking for PCL applications is disclosed. Detection reports are received at a target tracking processing system. The detection reports include measurements correlating to line tracks associated with target echoes in earlier processing operations. In addition, other information, such as parameters and observables, are received by the target track processing system. The target track processing system performs a line track association function and a track filtering function on the line tracks according to the measurements within the detection reports. These operations also predict and estimate target parameters for tracking. Target parameters are extrapolated from the propagated and updated target tracks, and fed to a display for a user, or back into the PCL system for further processing.

Granted: 2013-05-14
Abstract: A certificate-based encryption mechanism in which a source client does not access the entire certificate corresponding to a destination client when encrypting an electronic message to be sent to the destination client. Instead, the source client only requests a portion of the certificate from a certificate server. That portion includes encryption information, but may lack some or even all of the self-verification information in the certificate. The certificate server preferably performs any validation of the certificate prior to sending the encryption information to the source client. The certificate need not be separately validated by the source client, especially if the certificate server is trusted by the source client.
