Title: Mattress retainer buckle
Inventor: BEARD ALLYN
IPC: A61G7/005
Filed: 2006-08-24
Abstract: A mattress buckle for securing the position of a mattress (22) on the base (16) of an adjustable bed (10). The mattress comprises one of a pair of male and female elements of the buckle (12) secured to an upper surface of the bed base (16) and the other of the pair of male and female elements of the buckle (12) secured to the underside of the mattress (22).

Patent CA-2657418-A1 (CA)
Inventor: WAN MIN
IPC: G06F40/143
Filed: 2007-08-16
Abstract: A method and system for generating wrappers for hierarchically organized documents by jointly optimizing template detection and wrapper generation is provided. A wrapper generation system generates a wrapper for documents with similar templates by identifying a cluster of document trees and generating a wrapper tree for the cluster. A wrapper tree defines the wrapper for documents that match the template of the cluster. The wrapper generation system clusters document trees by generating a wrapper tree for the cluster based on an initial document tree. The wrapper generation system then repeatedly determines whether any other document tree matches or nearly matches the wrapper tree for the cluster and, if so, adds the document tree to the cluster and adjusts the wrapper tree as appropriate so that all the document trees, including the newly added one, match the wrapper tree.

IPC: C23C16/24
Filed: 2007-07-27
Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel, unconventional methods and systems for the fabrication of silicon or silicon-germanium photovoltaic cell applications. In some embodiments high purity gaseous and/or liquid intermediate compounds of silicon (or silicon germanium) are converted directly to polycrystalline films by a thermal plasma chemical vapor deposition process or by a thermal plasma spraying technique. The intermediate compounds of silicon (or silicon germanium) are injected into the thermal plasma source where temperatures range from 2000 K to about 20,000 K. The compounds dissociate and silicon (or silicon germanium) is deposited onto substrates. Polycrystalline films having densities approaching the bulk value are obtained on cooling. PN junction photovoltaic cells can be directly prepared by spraying, or doped films after heat treatment are subsequently transformed to viable photovoltaic cells having high efficiency, low cost at a high throughput. In some embodiments a roll-to-roll or a cluster-tool type automated, continuous system is provided.

Title: Pre-amplifier for detection lasers within laser ultrasonic inspection systems
Inventor: YAWN KENNETH R
IPC: G01N29/24
Filed: 2007-12-21
Abstract: A pulse detection laser is provided. The pulse detection laser includes a single frequency oscillator, a continuous preamplifier, and a pulsed amplifier. The single frequency oscillator generates a seed laser beam and is optically coupled to the continuous preamplifier. The continous pre-amplifier amplifies the seed laser to produce an intermediate power laser beam. A pulsed amplifier optically coupled to the continuous pre-amplifier receives the intermeidate power laser beam and amplifies the intermediate power laser beam to produce a pulse detection laser beam. One task of this pulse detection laser is to illuminate ultrasonic displacements. Light from the laser is scattered, collected, and analyzed with an interferometer to demodulate the ultrasonic displacements caused by the return echoes of the ultrasound at the surface of the part.

IPC: H04N19/142
Filed: 2008-03-05
Abstract: Provided is a quantization control method used in video encoding which encodes video and performs control so that an encoding bit rate approaches a predetermined target bit rate. The method calculates a difference between a target encoding amount and a generated encoded amount so as to detect whether a predetermined condition has occurred. If the occurrence of the condition is detected, a change amount of a feedback amount is decided as an amount to increase/decrease a quantization step size. According to the decided change amount, a feedback amount is changed. According to the measured difference code amount and the changed feedback amount, the quantization step size is increased or decreased. If there are more than one condition, it is possible to perform a predetermined calculation for a change amount of the feedback amount obtained in each of the conditions, thereby deciding the change amount of the final feedback amount.

Title: Method and apparatus for decoding a signal sent from a measurement-while-drilling tool
Inventor: KHROMOV SERGEY
IPC: E21B47/12
Filed: 2010-01-04
Abstract: Disclosed are a method and an apparatus for decoding a signal sent from a measurement-while-drilling tool. In order to decode the signal, a decoder implementation that is communicative according to a decoder implementation protocol and that is configured to decode the signal into a decoded signal is instantiated. The decoder implementation protocol is then conformed to a transmission protocol. The signal is sent to the decoder implementation according to the transmission protocol. Because the decoder implementation protocol has been conformed to the transmission protocol, the decoder implementation can receive the signal and can decode it. One way in which the decoder implementation protocol can be conformed to the transmission protocol is through the use of a translation layer between the module that sends the signal to be decoded and the decoder implementation.
