Patent CA-2517019-A1 (CA)
Inventor: RATKOVIC JOSEPH A
IPC: F42B15/01
Filed: 2003-11-12
Abstract: L'invention concerne un système de guidage de projectile sans gyro dans lequel le projectile comprend un système de coordonnées à corps orthogonal. Le projectile comprend un triax d'accéléromètres produisant des données d'accélération x, y et z mesurées le long des axes x, y et z respectivement. Un moyen d'antenne et de récepteur GPS fournit une position de GPS embarqué et des données de vitesse dans des coordonnées de navigation à références terrestres. Un moyen informatique et de programme stocke et accède à des données de position GPS et de vitesse GPS à indexation temporelle et il transforme les données d'accélération des axes x, y et z du corps en coordonnées de navigation. Le moyen de programme réagit aux données d'accélération à indexation temporelle correspondantes et aux données de vitesse et de position GPS afin de calculer et de produire en sortie un angle estimé de roulis-tangage-lacet du projectile au moyen de techniques de lissage optimales par rapport au niveau local pour chaque itération d'indice chronologique de la position courante dans un système de commande de vol, lequel actionne un système de propulsion à déviation destiné à guider le projectile sur un point prédéterminé.

Title: A factor risk model based system, method, and computer program product for generating risk forecasts
Inventor: YANG JIAN
IPC: G06Q40/00
Filed: 2004-02-10
Abstract: A factor risk model based method for generating risk forecasts. In one embodiment, the method includes: selecting a set of securities; selecting a set of risk factors; determining the risk factor returns; constructing a risk factor covariance matrix; constructing an idiosyncratic variance matrix;  determining, for each risk factor, a factor loading coefficient for each selected security; projecting the risk factor covariance matrix into a future forecast; and projecting the idiosyncratic variance matrix into a future forecast. The factor loading coefficients, the future forecast of the risk factor covariance matrix, and the future forecast of the idiosyncratic variance matrix can be used to determine a forecast of the variance-covariance matrix for the selected securities. In some embodiments, the step of estimating factor loadings includes performing a time series regression to obtain the sensitivity of each stocks' return to variations in the factor's return.

Title: Surgical knife safety handle
Inventor: SEEBAUER DAVID
IPC: A61F9/013
Filed: 2004-04-21
Abstract: A surgical knife safety device (10 or 100) having a handle (20 or 120), a blade (40 or 140) connected to the handle, and a guard (30 or 130) carried by the handle for sliding movement between a retracted position in which the blade is exposed for use, and an extended position for covering the sharp cutting edge of the blade. In the retracted position, an enlarged guard (30 or 130) radius is provided at the distal end of the handle (20 or 120) to allow improved handle control and blade orientation. The enlarged guard radius is positioned to allow the user to firmly grip a large distal handle portion which is preferably molded as a single piece with the blade holder (26 or 126), preventing unwanted blade or handle movement due to guard mechanism tolerances. A spring, such as leaf spring (52 or 152), and a pair of detents (54, 56) or slots (154,156) are provided to fix the guard (30 or 130) in the extended or retracted position, and provide resistance during movement between the two positions. Additionally, an antitravel mechanism is incorporated in the guard to prevent accidental retraction from the fully extended position.

Title: Improvements relating to an imaging apparatus and method
Inventor: HALL CHARLES DAVID
IPC: G01S7/40
Filed: 2004-05-20
Abstract: An imaging apparatus (6) has means for illuminating a selected surface with a radar beam footprint, and means for profiling/processing the resultant radar returns in an efficient and logical fashion such as to derive radar attitude information in real time about a number of predefined axes associated with the radar which depends upon the relative dispositions of the radar and the selected surface and upon the radar beam footprint characteristics.  Advantageously, a plurality of transmit beams (10,11,12) are used to image the surface and the processing arrangement has the capability of determining roll, pitch and/or yaw pointing data associated with the radar, such pointing data being determined by derivation of the attitude information and by selective input of terrain elevation data so as to take account of variations in the radar viewing geometry with terrain elevation. The inventive radar bears a definite low cost advantage over known radar designs, and retains utility for many applications, for example spaceborne and airborne applications.
Patent CA-2524587-A1 (CA)
Inventor: OREM CHRISTOPHER P
IPC: B43K24/06
Filed: 2003-12-10
Abstract: L'invention concerne un instrument d'écriture rétractable pouvant passer de la configuration rétractée à la configuration déployée, qui comprend un corps à volume intérieur et ouverture. Un ensemble pointe à mouvement de va et vient se trouve dans le corps. La pointe une fois déployée traverse l'ouverture. Une obturation ferme l'ouverture pour empêcher la pointe rétractée de sécher. Selon une variante, l'obturation est une soupape souple susceptible d'être ouverte par un manchon qui s'imbrique coulissant avec l'ensemble pointe. Une fois la soupape ouverte par le manchon, la pointe est exposée car le manchon coulisse par rapport à l'ensemble. Selon une autre variante, l'obturation peut être une porte coulissante fixée à l'ensemble et chevauchant l'ouverture. Lorsque l'ensemble se déplace vers la position déployée, la porte coulissante coulisse de façon à libérer l'ouverture.

Filed: 2004-05-12
Abstract: L'invention concerne des formulations de médicament présentant un potentiel d'abus réduit. Ces formulations contiennent au moins un agent (1) présentant une odeur nauséabonde, un colorant de découragement/indication de couleur vivie et une matière particulaire fine insoluble (3). L'agent nauséabond et le colorant se présentent sous une forme qui n'affecte pas une administration correcte du médicament, mais l'agent nauséabond crée une odeur malodorante, lorsque la forme dosifiée est écrasée ou chimiquement extraite et administrée par voie nasale, par inhalation, par voie orale, buccale ou sublinguale, et le colorant produit une couleur vive, lorsqu'il est écrasé ou touché. La matière particulaire fine insoluble empêche une extraction de ce médicament à partir de la forme dosifiée et, une fois écrasé, peut empêcher une injection intraveineuse à cause de la présence de particules insolubles ou peut empêcher une injection par bloquage de l'aiguille intraveineuse. La couleur vive du colorant une fois extraite, présente également un effet d'aversion psychologique pour les gens qui voudraient l'utiliser en intraveineuse.

Title: Drive shaft for compressor
Inventor: MOWATT ROBERT D
IPC: F04C29/02
Filed: 2005-11-07
Abstract: A compressor assembly that includes a driveshaft and at least one eccentric press-fit to the shaft. In one embodiment, the driveshaft includes an opening at a first end and the eccentric includes a linking rod press-fit into the opening. During assembly, the first end of the shaft is inserted through an opening in a rotor and the eccentric is then press-fit to the first end. This arrangement allows the opening in the rotor to closely receive the driveshaft and allows the eccentric to be assembled to the compressor without passing the eccentric through the rotor opening. In use, the eccentric is operably engaged with a compressor mechanism such as, for example, a rotary compression mechanism, a reciprocating piston mechanism, or an orbiting scroll mechanism. In one embodiment, a second eccentric is press-fit to a second end of the driveshaft and is operably engaged with a second compressor mechanism.
