Patent CA-2161982-A1 (CA)
Inventor: ARKAS EVAN
IPC: H04L7/033
Filed: 1995-11-02
Abstract: A device which reduces jitter and narrows the frequency spectrum of a jitter-ridden clock signal. A front end of the device locates missing clock pulses and ensures regular clock pulses are relayed to the remainder of the device. The succeeding sections hone the signal such that jitter elements are removed. By this time duty cycles are uneven so a positive edge triggerred flip-flop is used to obtain 50% duty cycles at the expense of halving the clock signal's frequency. Optionally a frequency doubler can be employed to regain the clock signal's original frequency.

Patent CA-2170978-A1 (CA)
Inventor: TODT GREGORY L
IPC: F16B4/00
Filed: 1995-05-15
Abstract: A method and material for shrink wrapping articles includes wrapping the article with a shrink wrapping material having a shrink/stretch film outer layer (12) and an inner layer of a non-woven fabric (14). The shrink/stretch film responds to heat by shrinking around the article being wrapped, while the non-woven material aerates to form bubbles (16) thus acting as a cushion between the shrink/stretch film outer layer and the article being wrapped. According to one embodiment of the invention, the article being wrapped is completed enveloped by the material, such as by forming the material into a bag encapsulating the article and then heating the bag to shrink the material into engagement with the article. According to another embodiment of the invention, material is made into a tape by applying an adhesive to the surface of the non-woven fabric which contacts the article being wrapped. The adhesive may either be a pressure sensitive adhesive or a hot melt heat activated adhesive. If a pressure responsive adhesive is used, the film may be a common film instead of a shrink/stretch film, and the adhesive is activated by pressing the material against the article. If a hot melt heat responsive adhesive is used, the material is heated to both shrink the film, thereby causing the non-woven to bubble up and act as a cushion between the film and the article and simultaneously to actuate the adhesive thereby causing the material to adhere to the article being wrapped.

Title: Method and system for diagnosing and reporting failure of a vehicle emission test
Inventor: SMITH MARY V
IPC: G01M15/10
Filed: 1996-03-29
Abstract: Disclosed is a system and method which systematically diagnoses emissions test failure by applying the rules of a knowledge base to predict the cause of vehicle emissions failures. Classifiers are used to form predictions. The classifier is the data structure used in the automobile emission testing inspection lane by the lane diagnostic subsystem to provide a diagnostic for a particular vehicle. Its output is the likelihood that a vehicle suffers from a given failure based on the values of characteristics such as its emissions test results and the vehicle's description. The classifier predictions are then used to prepare a failure report that is given to the motorist for use by his or her repair technician. In another feature of this invention, the classifiers are continuously updated in a learning process based on new repair records. The learning processes periodically analyzes the data and updates the knowledge base to include new or revised classifiers.
