Title: Quick crank adjustable height table
Inventor: TIERNEY JAMES A
IPC: A47B9/02
Filed: 2003-06-06
Abstract: A table or desk assembly (20) includes a base having a pair of legs (24), a worksurface (22) supported by and between the pair of legs, and a rapid, counterbalanced height adjustment mechanism interposed between the legs and the worksurface for providing adjustment in the elevation of the worksurface . The height adjustment mechanism includes a pair of high lead rotatable threaded rods (32) engaged with a mating stationary threaded member (33) associated with each leg. A handle (36) is engageable with one of the thread ed rods for imparting rotation to the threaded rod, and a synchronizing arrangement, such as a sprocket (38) and chain system (40), is interconnecte d with the other of the threaded rods for rotating the threaded rods together. A lift assist or counterbalancing mechanism applies an upward bias, such as to the worksurface, to counteract the weight of the worksurface and any loads supported by the worksurface. The counterbalancing mechanism may be in the form of a cylinder assembly (54) having a biased retractable and extendible member, which is interconnected with each of the threaded rods via a cable (66) and pulley (68) arrangement. Alternatively, the lift assist or counterbalancing mechanism may be in the form of constant force spring arrangements (76), each of which has an extendible and retractable member. A retainer arrangement (90) is interposed between the crank or handle member (36) and the worksurface, for preventing inadvertent rotation of the threade d rod and thereby maintaining the elevation of the worksurface.

Title: Method and apparatus for hauling off extrusion products, in particular for aligning the caterpillar take-off device in relation to the extrusionaxis
Inventor: STIEGLITZ HENNING
IPC: B29C48/92
Filed: 2003-08-14
Abstract: The invention relates to a caterpillar take-off unit, in addition to a method for taking off extrusion products, in particular plastic pipes, using a caterpillar take-off unit comprising at least two caterpillar tracks. Said tracks can be arranged symmetrically in relation to a longitudinal axis of the caterpillar take-off unit, at least during the take-off process, and the distance from said unit can be varied. One disadvantage of known caterpillar take-off units is that they have previously had to be re-adjusted manually for each cross-sectional modification of the extruded product. According to the invention, a modification of the cross-section of the extrusion product is measured and the distance of the caterpillar tracks from the longitudinal axis is automatically adapted in accordance with said modification in such a way that the axis of symmetry of the extrusion product coincides with the longitudinal axis of the caterpillar take-off unit.

Patent CA-2511821-A1 (CA)
Inventor: KANE MARK EDWARD
IPC: B61L27/00
Filed: 2003-12-31
Abstract: An automated fault reporting system for a train includes a controller that gathers information concerning malfunctioning wayside status devices and automatically reports the information to an appropriate party. In one embodiment, the control module uses a positioning system and a database including device locations in order to determine when the train is near a device. If no status information is received from the device as the train approaches, or the status information indicates a problem, the train is allowed to continue at a reduced speed to allow the operator to visually confirm that it is safe to proceed. If an area monitored by the device has been passed, or if the operator indicates that there is no problem, or the device fails to respond, the controller records and reports the malfunction.

Inventor: MORALES LUIS E
IPC: H04L69/40
Filed: 2005-07-08
Abstract: In an IP network during a DDoS attack on a website or other internet entity having an IP address, selective black-holing of attack traffic is performed such that some of the traffic destined for the IP address under attack continues to go to the IP address under attack while other traffic, destined for the same IP address is, rerouted via BGP sessions to a black-hole router. Such a selective black-holing scheme can be used to allow some traffic to continue in route to the IP address under attack, while other traffic is diverted.
Patent CA-2512959-A1 (CA)
Title: Service in wlan inter-working, address management system, and method
Inventor: TAN CHEE BING
IPC: G06F13/00
Filed: 2004-01-14
Abstract: The present invention provides a solution to the mobile terminal address management in the WLAN  inter-working. By using the access control framework, the mobile terminal could obtain the address, and setup the tunnel together with the granting of service access. The management process would be shielded by the inherent encryption and protection of the access control process, and thus does not need extra security setup procedures to be performed. The invention also provides a method for the terminal to obtain address that binds to the session, using a fine grain service authorization procedure. The terminal could maintain multiple addresses when accessing multiple parallel sessions. The address management is also integrated with the policy control mechanisms. The policy control would provide means for the terminal and its home network to configure the WLAN when necessary after an address alternation. QoS, or tunnelling information would be modified and provisioned according to the new status using channels available in the existing policy control procedures. By this, a smooth address transition in the roaming time could be achieved, and QoS  interruption could be minimized.

Patent CA-2519764-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MANKE LUTZ
IPC: B21F3/02
Filed: 2004-03-05
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing helical springs or stabilisers consisting of steel. According to said method, the parent material is heated to a temperature in excess of the re-crystallisation temperature, the structure is austenitised, held at an equalised temperature and then formed and subsequently quenched to form martensite and tempered. Round steel bars, whose re-crystallisation temperature is adjusted over the bar length in a compensation furnace, constitute the parent material. The round steel bars are subsequently re-modelled by cross-rolling, remaining substantially straight and after the critical deformation degree has been exceeded are subjected to dynamic re-crystallisation processes. The round steel bars are then subjected to a post-heating process above the Ac3 temperature, in order to undergo a complete static re-crystallisation, are wound to form a helical spring or bent to form a stabiliser and are finally quenched from the austenitic state to form martensite and tempered.
