Title: A method of determining the degree of filling of the dust collector of a vacuum cleaner and a filling indicator
Inventor: NIELSEN HEDELUND ANDERS
IPC: A47L9/19
Filed: 2006-03-03
Abstract: In order to measure the degree of filling of a dust collector (5), where the dust (15, 16) collected in the dust collector may be of a very varied compo-sition ranging from very fine dust (15) to rather large particles (16), a high pressure difference and a low pressure difference are measured by two differential pressure meters (11 , 12), where the one differential pressure meter (12) measures the pressure difference between the compartment (4) of the dust collector, in which the dust collector (5) is arranged, and a measurement position at the connecting stub (6) of the vacuum cleaner, as is known, while the other differential pressure meter (11) measures be¬ tween two measurement positions inside the connecting stub (6). Hereby, the method and the filling indicator according to the invention will ensure that larger particles do not settle inside the connecting stub (6), since these are detected beforehand by the differential pressure meter (11) which records lower pressure differences than the differential pressure meter (12).

Abstract: The method and system provide convenient and efficient authentication of mobile tickets (46). A ticket purchaser provides a photo image (40) of himself or herself that is stored with the purchaser's phone number and a ticket identifier in a database (32). A mobile ticket (46) is generated comprising the ticket identifier as a barcode and the photo. The ticket is transmitted to the purchaser's mobile phone (38). The ticket is authenticated by reading the ticket identifier from the phone (38) into a terminal (54), for example by barcode scanning (52) of the phone's screen (50). The identifier is used to look up (56) the stored image (58) which is displayed on the screen of the terminal (60). The operator of the terminal can then compare the photo on the terminal (60) with the actual purchaser and the photo on the display of the phone (50) in order to authenticate the ticket (46) as belonging to the purchaser.

Title: Adjustable dental tool drive arrangement
Inventor: MILLSON ANDREW DOUGLAS
IPC: A61C3/00
Filed: 2006-06-09
Abstract: The invention relates to an improved dental tool drive arrangement for a handpiece with a drive head, the tool drive arrangement permitting length adjustment of the tool in the drive head by concentrically supporting the tool in the drive head at any position from a fully inserted position to a maximum retracted position. The tool drive arrangement preferably includes a tool and a rotatable tool supporting element for concentrically supporting the tool from the fully inserted to the maximum retracted position, the tool preferably including a maximum retraction indicator for indicating to a user when the tool has been retracted to the maximum retraction position. This provides a significant advantage over the prior art by allowing a user to adjust the exposed length of a rotatable tool, preferably a dental bur, without exceeding safe operating limits. The invention also relates to an improved drive spindle which allows depth adjustment of a tool in a dental handpiece while maintaining efficient torque transfer and concentricity during high speed rotation.

Patent CA-2613784-A1 (CA)
Inventor: VASYUKEVICH ANTON P
IPC: B66F3/00
Filed: 2005-06-15
Abstract: A failsafe stable cleat with automatic in-line line-locking includes a frame having proximate and a remote sides on substantially opposite sides of the frame and formed with a passageway, extending between the proximate and remote sides, for receiving a line and generally defining a cleat center line along which a line can move along a first line releasing direction from the proximate to the remote sides and a line pulling direction from the remote to the proximates sides; attaching members for attaching the frame to a support surface. A cam on the frame on one side of the passageway has a line engaging portion spaced a predetermined distance from the support surface, the cam being movable between a line releasing position and a line locking position. A  pusher on the frame is positioned on an opposite side of the passageway in relation to the cam for selectively applying a force on the line in the direction of the cam. A cam biasing member tends to urge the cam to disengage from the line while a pushed biasing member normally tends to move the line across the gap into contact with the cam while permitting the line to return to the passageway out of contact with the cam when sufficient tension is applied by the user off the cleat center line to create a force component to offset the pushing force created by the pusher biasing member. This promotes unlocking of the line and allowing the line to move in the first line releasing direction, engagement of the line by the cam to the line locking position creating a force couple which is a function of the predetermined distance, that tends to separate the frame from the support surface. A  stabilizing element compensates for an offset the force couple independently of the dimensions or configuration of the frame.

Title: Coil optimization for magnetic stimulation
Inventor: OLREE KENNETH STEPHEN
IPC: A61N2/02
Filed: 2008-04-30
Abstract: A method of determining an optimal coil shape for use in magnetic stimulation includes identifying a stimulation location and a constraint at the stimulation location. A first electromagnetic effect at the stimulation location is determined. The first electromagnetic effect is induced by a first electrical quantity assigned to a first current element at a first current element location with a first orientation. A second electromagnetic effect at the stimulation location is also determined. The second electromagnetic effect is induced by a second electrical quantity assigned to a second current element at the first current element location with a second orientation. Based on the first electromagnetic effect and the second electromagnetic effect, an optimal orientation of a current element at the first current element location is determined. The optimal orientation is such that the constraint is satisfied. Repeating the process at a plurality of locations yields the optimal coil shape.
