Title: Printer and copier for performance-adjusted monochrome and/or chromatic, single-sided or both-sided printing of a recording medium
Inventor: MANZER HANS
IPC: G03G15/23
Filed: 1997-11-28
Abstract: The invention relates to a printing or copying apparatus for performance-adjusted monochrome or colour printing on one or both sides of a recording medium. On both sides of a transport channel (11) said apparatus has an electrophotography module (E1, E2) with an endless photoconductor (13) and a transfer module (T1, T2) with an endless transfer ribbon (19). A control device (ST) controls the electrophotography modules (E1, E2), transfer modules (T1, T2) and transport device (38) in such a way that, in a collective state, colour-separated toner images are serially transferred from the electrophotography module to the transfer ribbon (19). The collective toner image generated in this way is transferred to the recording medium in a start-stop operation. In a continuous operating state assigned to monochrome printing, individual toner images are transferred directly from the electrophotography module via the transfer module to the recording medium (10).

Title: A flowable nondigestible oil and process for making
Inventor: VOLKER ALAN DAVID
IPC: A23L1/308
Filed: 1998-05-20
Abstract: A flowable nondigestible oil composition having a Consistency in a temperature range of 20 ~C to 40 ~C of less than about 600 P.sec(n-1), preferably less than about 400 P.sec(n-1). The flowable nondigestible oil contains a liquid polyol polyester having a complete melt point less than 37 ~C, and a solid polyol polyester having a complete melt point of at least about 37 ~C. The solid polyol polyester can be a solid saturated polyol polyester, a solid diversely esterified polyol polyester, a polyol polyester polymer, or a combination thereof, which are crystallized, or co-crystallized, into unaggregated crystal particles of typically less than 10 microns in maximum dimension. The flowable nondigestible oil is made by a process which includes the steps of melting completely the nondigestible oil, crystallizing the solid polyol polyester while applying shear to avoid formation of clusters of crystallized aggregates which can prevent the composition from being flowable. A preferred equipment for crystallizing the solid polyol polyester to form the flowable composition is a scraped wall heat exchanger.

Patent CA-2291585-A1 (CA)
Title: Cargo tie down system and retainer used therein
Inventor: KAMPF MARK
IPC: B60P7/08
Filed: 1999-12-06
Abstract: A system for tying down cargo on the deck of a transport vehicle such as a cargo of stacked steel plates on a railway flat car. Link chains are used for tying the cargo down. The system utilizes chain retainers secured to the deck or to the bottoms of C-channels recessed in the deck. The retainers are positioned on opposite sides of the cargo and close in to the bottom. A selected link of a length of each of two tie-down chains is inserted into one of two retainers. The free ends of the two chains are fastened together on top of the cargo and then ratcheted to place the chains under tension. The chain retainers are in the form of one-piece castings with a pair of right and left hand uprights with a slot therebetween in which a chain link will fit and pivot in its narrow orientation but not in its wide orientation. A selected link in its wide orientation serves to anchor the lower end of the chain to a chain retainer.

The invention may also comprise a continuous-time common-mode feedback. With this design of the invention, high speed and high gain can be maintained with a large phase margin to guarantee the stability.
Patent CA-2296948-A1 (CA)
Title: Computationally-efficient traffic shaper
Inventor: PETTY NORMAN W
IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 2000-01-26
Abstract: A computationally-efficient traffic shaper replaces per-virtual-circuit shaping queues that all must be processed during each cell-emission period, with a sequence (130) of shaping queues (131 ) shared by a plurality of virtual circuits and only one of which must be processed during each cell-emission period. N shaping queues are used, where N is the maximum cell delay effected by the traffic shaper divided by the cell emission period; for constant-bit-rate narrowband virtual circuits, N is 47.     Each virtual circuit is assigned one or more of the shaping queues, spaced evenly in the sequence, as its serving queues, proportionally to its size. A dequeue state machine (141) cyclically transmits the contents of a current one of the shaping queues during each period. Per-virtual-circuit instances of an enqueue state machine (140) each enqueue received ATM cells of its corresponding virtual circuit. If the cell arrives on time, it is enqueued in the current queue which is one of the virtual circuit's serving queues. If the cell arrives early, it is enqueued in the virtual circuit's next serving queue. If the cell arrives late, it is enqueued in the current queue, and designation of all of the virtual circuit's serving queues is shifted an equal amount in the sequence so that the current queue becomes one of the virtual circuit's new serving queues. For variable-bit-rate virtual circuits, an additional overflow queue (1100) is used to temporarily hold overflow received cells until the dequeuing makes room for them in the shaping queues.

Patent CA-2307484-A1 (CA)
Title: Predictive modeling of consumer financial behavior
Inventor: RUSSELL GERALD S
IPC: G06Q30/02
Filed: 2000-05-04
Abstract: Predictive modeling of consumer financial behavior is provided by application of consumer transaction data to predictive models associated with merchant segments. The merchant segments are derived from the consumer transaction data based on co-occurrences of merchants in sequences of transactions. Merchant vectors represent specific merchants, and are aligned in a vector space as a function of the degree to which the merchants co-occur more or less frequently than expected. Merchant vectors are clustered to form the merchant segments. Analysis of merchant segments details transaction rates, volumes and amounts for the segment and its individual merchants. For each merchant segment a predictive model is trained using consumer transaction data in selected past time periods to predict spending in subsequent time periods. The merchant segment predictive models provide predictions of spending in each merchant segment for any particular consumer, based on previous spending by the consumer. Consumer profiles describe summary statistics of each consumer's spending in the merchant segments, and across merchant segments. The consumer profiles include consumer vectors derived as summary vectors of selected merchants patronized by the consumer. Membership functions associate each consumer with one or more merchant segments. Analysis of the consumers associated with a segment allows for identification of selected consumers according to predicted spending in the segment or other criteria, and the targeting of promotional offers specific to the segment and its merchants.
