Title: Line marking device
Inventor: UMBRO GERALD G
IPC: B44D3/38
Filed: 1996-07-01
Abstract: A line marking device (10) includes an elongated body (15) which mounts a marking filament (20) that is loaded with marking powder (55). When the filament (20) is snapped against a surface, a portion of the powder (55) is deposited on that surface along a well defined line. The body (15) also mounts a protractor (30) and spirit levels (22, 23) that are used to locate or set the device (10) in a predetermined position prior to snapping the marking filament (20) against the surface to be marked. 'The marking filament (20) extends through a shuttle chamber (53) that contains a supply of marking powder (55). That shuttle (50) is moved back and forth on the body (15) to recharge the marking filament (20) with the marking powder (55). In a second embodiment of this invention the marking filament (20) is pressed rather than snapped against the surface to be marked.

Patent CA-2231219-A1 (CA)
Inventor: WHITTAKER EDWARD JOHN WEMYS
IPC: G01R19/165
Filed: 1998-03-05
Abstract: The current flowing in an output field effect transistor is sensed by a paralle[circuit arrangement which derives a sensed current representing the current flowing in the output transistor. The parallel circuit arrangement comprises series-connected CMOS transistors which are connected together in order to derive a current output which is representative of the load current through the output transistor. In a short circuit protected output buffer, the sensed current is compared with a reference current and if it exceeds the reference current the amplitude of the drive signal to the output transistor is reduced.

Patent CA-2238782-A1 (CA)
Inventor: ALLARIE MICHAEL M
IPC: E21B4/02
Filed: 1998-05-27
Abstract: An apparatus for drilling holes in the steel casing of an a oil or gas well, and drilling into the surrounding earth, includes a number of components controlled by hydraulic fluid. A first hydraulic motor drives a steel milling assembly and a second hydraulic motor drives a rock drilling assembly. All assemblies are supported in a housing that is conveyed by conventional jointed pipe or coiled tubing down the well casing. Control components cause a carriage carrying the milling assembly to be indexed up a predetermined distance relative to the well casing, and then extend a mill bit gradually into contact with the well casing while being rotated by a hydraulic motor. After the mill bit completes a hole through the well casing, the hydraulic components retract the mill bit and index the carriage back down to its starting position to align a rock drilling bit with the hole that was just drilled in the casing. The rock drilling bit is provided on the outer end of a flexible drillstem to enable the rock bit to extend while drilling radially from the wellbore, through the hole in the casing, as it is rotated by the second hydraulic motor. The apparatus makes it possible to radially drill multiple holes through the metal casing and multiple corresponding long tunnels through surrounding earth, without having to be raised to the surface and re-lowered between operations.
Patent CA-2240374-A1 (CA)
Inventor: ZHANG WENHAU
IPC: G06F17/21
Filed: 1998-06-11
Abstract: The invention is based on partitioning the 10,000 - plus character Chinese / Japanese / Korean font system into a number of font sub-sets; each of the partitions is small enough to be handled within the 8-bit font environment limit of 256 characters per font, and is designated in the Windows font registry as an independent font. Thus, the CJK characters can be encoded in single-byte codes, instead of double-byte codes that cause problems (framing error, code mangling).    Interaction and data exchange with other Windows applications (both English and CJK-localized) take place through the OLE, RTF Cut&Paste / RTF filesave, and SBCS / DBCS Cut&Paste procedures, thus ensuring universal system compatibility.       The invention allows the display of CJK text within documents written in software applications that are based on English or other languages using Roman characters.

Abstract: The operating logic of a first communication interface device, a callee, is enhanced to include logic for transferring a direct inward dial data call it received from a second communication interface device, the caller, to a compatibly equipped third communication interface device, the transferee, coupled to the same PBX.  The operating logic of the second and the third communication interface devices, the original caller and the transferee, are also enhanced to include logic for cooperating with the first communication interface device to effectuate the transfer.  Preferably, the operating logic of first, second, and third communication interface devices are further enhanced with the enhancements provided to the second and third, first and third, and first and second communication interface devices respectively, to allow each of the three communication interface devices to be the caller having its call transferred, the transferor callee, as well as the transferee callee, at different points in time.

Patent CA-2253625-A1 (CA)
Inventor: HODAC BERNARD
IPC: G01B11/16
Filed: 1997-04-30
Abstract: To detect by means of a long-baseline system the global bending strain of a structure (1), i.e. by detecting the accumulated local bending strains over a distance of at least two metres, detection lines (8, 11), preferably optical fibre lines, which indicate the extent of their elongation by an increased attenuation of the light pulses which run through them, are used. To detect the direction and the extent of the flexure of the structure (1), the latter is closely associated with a model comprising a matrix (13) which follows the flexural bending strains of the structure (1), and at least one, preferably two detection lines (8, 11) suitably located in the matrix cross-section so that their elongation variations and/or the differences between their respective elongation variations are indicative of the flexure of the model, which gives indications on the flexure of the structure (1). The invention is useful in determining the straight or distorted flexure or contraflexure of structures not easily accessible or partially inaccessible, to measure level variations on one or several axes.

IPC: B63H23/30
Filed: 1997-02-03
Abstract: A propulsive transmission system comprising contra-rotating propellers which are connected to a planet gear in the hub. The planet gear is driven by a horizontal or slightly angled shaft to the sun gear. The sun gear operates at a rotational speed which is considerably greater than that of the motor by gearing up the speed of the motor by one and a half to three times using a step up gear. In parallel with the step up gear, parallel gear wheels can be arranged with clutches in order to temporarily create another gearing ("gear box"). The hub can be mounted in a steerable outboard housing which may also be provided with a trimming arrangement. For an inboard motor having a steerable housing, the power is transmitted via a cardan joint to thereby permit trimming and steering.
