Patent CA-2286128-C (CA)
Inventor: STOLT TOMAS

Abstract: L'invention concerne une station de base radio d'intérieur destinée à une utilisation avec des systèmes de télécommunication cellulaire sans fil. Une conception compacte d'un ensemble unitaire est réalisée par réduction du niveau de dissipation de puissance et donc de la taille du puits de chaleur requis pour la dissipation de la chaleur. Dans une réalisation préférée, une pluralité de signaux d'émission est combinée dans un combinateur hybride pour générer une paire de signaux de sortie. Un premier signal de sortie est émis par une antenne doublet impliquant une polarisation verticale et un second signal de sortie est émis par une antenne horizontale produisant une polarisation horizontale. De plus, un déplacement de phase de 90 DEG  est introduit entre les signaux avant leur émission. L'émission simultanée résultante des signaux orientés perpendiculairement génère un important champ à polarisation circulaire dans la zone de couverture. La dissipation de puissance est réduite par émission du signal à polarisation horizontale car il est converti en énergie utile qui sinon serait dissipée dans une résistance de charge.

Abstract: A signal demultiplexer includes serially-connected 2-demultiplexing filter banks, including band-stop filters and down-samplers for culling sampling frequencies of output signals from filters to 1/2. When the 2-demultiplexing filter bank operates on four types of filters, first to fourth filters in an ascending order of frequencies, 2-demultiplexing filter bank is arranged in one of two configurations so that a first filter bank contains at least the first filter or the second filter, or a second filter bank contains at least the third filter or the fourth filter. The filter banks are connected in such a way that signals processed through the first filter are processed by the first 2-demultiplexing filter bank in a next-stage; signals processed through the second filter are processed by the second 2-demultiplexing filter bank in a next-stage. Signals processed through the third filter are processed by the first 2-demultiplexing filter bank in a next-stage; and signals processed through the fourth filter are processed by the second 2-demultiplexing filter bank in a next-stage.

Granted: 2009-04-14
Abstract: A sanitary napkin for placement in a crotch portion of an undergarment of a wearer having a longitudinal axis and being further characterized by having at least one preferential bending zone extending obliquely in relation to the longitudinal axis. The preferential bending zone may be created by mechanically embossing the surface of the sanitary napkin to locally densify the absorbing materials of the article. The preferential bending zone causes the sanitary napkin to resist lateral compression forces exerted by the thighs of the wearer and thereby prevents bunching of the article on the undergarment. The preferential bending zone also enhances fluid distribution by channeling the fluid away from the point of contact. The advantages of the present invention are increased efficiency of the sanitary napkin in collecting bodily fluids and greater comfort for the wearer of the napkin, particularly when the napkin is thin.

Title: Full flow mechanical failsafe
Inventor: SNYDER TODD R
IPC: F16K17/28
Filed: 2000-09-13
Granted: 2008-11-18
Abstract: A full-flow mechanical failsafe (100) is composed of a cylindrical shell (101) having a movable sealing plug (105) therein, for attachment to a filter element (110) of a fluid filtering system, such as a gas clean up system in a power plant. The sealing plug (105) rests on locking spheres (107) within the shell (101) during normal operation. Upon filter failure or breakage, the flow fluid will be substantially increased, causing an increase in upward pressure against the sealing plug (105), forcing it upward off the spheres (107) and into sealing contact with a flow aperture (102, 103), shutting off fluid flow. The spheres (107) move downward into a lock-ing position upon movement of the sealing plug (105), to se-cure the sealing plug (105) in its upward sealing position. The failsafe (100) can be used in fluid flow control systems other than fluid filtering systems, such as oil or gas pipelines, and can be used to prevent improper reverse fluid flow.
