Patent CA-2330917-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MCEWAN THOMAS E
IPC: G01S7/282
Filed: 1999-05-14
Abstract: A delay locked loop clock circuit (10) employs an analog control loop for generating picosecond-accurate clock delays. A linear analog comparison circuit operating on integrated DC levels replaces the usual digital phase comparator for substantially improved timing accuracy. In operation, clock pulses from a first delay path (14) are integrated (18) and applied to a loop control amplifier (26). Clock pulses from a second delay path (16) are integrated (20) and applied to a differencing input of the loop control amplifier (26). The loop control amplifier (26) regulates the delay in the second delay path (16) to balance the integrated clock pulse voltage against externally applied control voltages (24, 26). The delay between the first path and the second path is thereby precisely controlled by external voltage inputs. The first and second path clock output timing relationship is directly measured by analog voltage devices, eliminating error-prone high-speed phase comparators employed in prior art approaches.

Title: Method and system for communicating data from wireline terminals to mobile terminals
Inventor: HOWE WALTER WESLEY
IPC: H04L29/06
Filed: 2001-03-01
Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for communicating data from wireline terminals to mobile terminals in a telecommunications network, which includes a home node associated with the mobile terminal and one or more visited nodes.  To establish communication with a mobile terminal, a wireline terminal sends data to a server in the telecommunications network.  The server identifies a mobile identification number associated with the mobile terminal, and based on the identified mobile identification number, the server determines a route that excludes the home node when the mobile terminal is out of the geographical area served by the home node.  The server then establishes via the determined route a connection to the mobile terminal and sends to the mobile terminal the data received from the wireline terminal.

Title: Acoustical polymer foam and methods for preparation thereof
Inventor: PARK CHUNG P
IPC: B29C44/56
Filed: 1999-05-27
Abstract: Thermoplastic polymer foams having sound deadening properties satisfactory for demanding applications are provided which have mechanical strength, which are economical to manufacture, and which are hydrolytically stable. Methods of preparing these foams are also provided. The foams are useful in sound management, cushion packaging, filtering, and fluid absorption and exhibit one or more of the following proprties: 1) average cell size greater than about 2 mm, 2) substantially open-cell structure and 3) relatively large pores connecting the cells. In order that the foam be acoustically active, the foam should possess a substiantially open-cell structure and a relatively low airflow resistivity. Foams with substantially open-cell structure and relatively low airflow resistivity are prepared by mechanically opening a foam having an average cell size greater than about 2 mm. In most cases, such mechanical opening creates relatively large pores connecting the cells.

Title: Annular flow restrictor for electrical submersible pump
Inventor: GAGNER MICHAEL G
IPC: E21B43/12
Filed: 2001-09-20
Abstract: A method of pumping well fluid from a well having casing with perforations includes connecting an electrical motor to a lower end of a pump and securing the pump to tubing. A restrictor is mounted to the tubing above the pump, the restrictor having a restrictor passage. The well annulus contains a well fluid with a static level under static conditions. When the motor is started to cause the pump to operate, downward flow of well fluid contained in the well annulus flows through the restrictor passage. This reduces the amount of downward flow to increase well fluid flow through the perforations.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a device for linearly reciprocating a tray within a heating chamber of a microwave oven in the right and left direction. A device for linearly moving a tray in a microwave oven according to the present invention, comprises a rectangular tray for loading thereon a foodstuff to be heated within a heating chamber; a driving motor for generating rotational force; a converting means for converting a rotational motion from the driving motor into a linear reciprocating motion of the tray; a supporting means mounted between a bottom surface of the heating chamber and the tray for supporting the tray so as to linearly reciprocate the tray.  The converting means comprises a groove formed in the bottom surface of the tray and having a predetermined length, and a rotating member with an eccentric protrusion formed at an eccentric position and inserted into the groove, and the rotating member is rotated by the driving motor so that the tray can be linearly reciprocated depending on the amount of rotation of the eccentric protrusion. Therefore, the space within the heating chamber can be more efficiently and extensively used.

Title: Extending the duration of drug release within the stomach during the fed mode
Inventor: MARKEY MICHELINE
IPC: A61K9/26
Filed: 2001-12-12
Abstract: Drugs are formulated as unit oral dosage forms by incorporating them into polymeric matrices comprised of hydrophilic polymers that swell upon imbibition of water to a size that is large enough to promote retention of the dosage form in the stomach during the fed mode. The oral formulation is designed for gastric retention and controlled delivery of an incorporated drug into the gastric cavity, and thus administered, the drug is released from the matrix into the gastric fluid by solution diffusion. The swollen polymeric matrix, having achieved sufficient size, remains in the gastric cavity for several hours if administered while the patient is in the fed mode, and remains intact long enough for substantially all of the drug to be released before substantial dissolution of the matrix occurs. The swelling matrix lowers the accessibility of the gastric fluid to the drug and thereby reduces the drug release rate. This process, together with diffusion retardation by selection of specific polymers, polymer molecular weights, and other variables, results in a sustained and controlled delivery rate of the drug to the gastric cavity.

Title: Conveyor system
Inventor: BUCHI ROBERT
IPC: B65G35/08
Filed: 2002-02-01
Abstract: In a conveyor system a magnet element row aligned at least partly parallel to the conveyor path is arranged in a driving region to serve as a stationary drive means and conveyor elements comprise conducting parts (4) and are movable along the conveyor path through the drive region. The magnet element row (11) which for example consists of alternatingly orientated permanent magnets produces a magnetic field locally changing along the row (11). The conducting parts (4) are arranged on the conveyor elements (2) such that in the drive region they are positioned in the effective range of the magnet element row (11). A relative movement between the magnetic element row (11) and the conveyor element (2) produces eddy currents in the conducting parts (4) effecting forces counteracting the relative movement. The relative movement is for example produced by annular magnet element rows (11) which are revolvingly driven and of which a part moves parallel to the conveyor path being in interaction with the conducting parts (4) of conveyor elements (2). The drive means works without contact and permits jolt-free conveyance in particular when applied in connection with conveyor elements being moved along the conveyor path independently of one another and with varying speeds.
