Patent CA-2644762-A1 (CA)
Inventor: KOTANI TOSHIAKI
IPC: H01S5/024
Filed: 2007-02-05
Abstract: A heat pipe which, even though small in size, can transmit heat more easily from a device to be cooled to refrigerant and reliably continue to cool the device to stably maintain its operating conditions. The heat pipe has a better heat radiation effect than conventional ones. A cooling section body (25) has a vapor diffusion flow path (42) extending to the periphery of the cooling section body (25) and also has a capillary tube flow path (41) formed in the vapor diffusion flow path (42) and in a region (47) where recesses face to each other. A recess (6) having a small wall thickness is formed in the cooling section body (25), and an LED chip (2) is mounted in the recess (6). In the heat pipe (50), the small wall thickness of the recess (6) makes heat transmission from the LED chip (2) to the refrigerant easier, and the heat causes continuous circulation of the refrigerant (W) to be reliably repeated. Latent heat produced when the refrigerant (W) evaporates reliably absorbs heat from the LED chip (2), and as a result, emitting conditions of the LED chip (2) is stably maintained.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for supply of treating fluid to a cutting apparatus directly to cut vegetation substantially simultaneously with the cutting of the vegetation. Treating fluid is delivered from the supply to an intermediate, sealed reservoir into which a desired volume of treating fluid is maintained. The treating fluid is then delivered from the sealed reservoir, via centrifugal force, through a channel to a passageway formed in the bolt connecting the cutting blade to a blade mount of the mower. The treating fluid is ejected from the bolt passage directly onto the exposed undersurface of the cutting blade and directly to the vegetation at the same time that it is cut so that the treatment fluid, herbicide or other chemical is absorbed directly into the translocation system of the cut vegetation.

Title: Recyclable cup lid
Inventor: MIJAILOVIC ALEKSANDAR
IPC: B65D43/02
Filed: 2009-04-06
Abstract: A lid for disposable cups that can be made of paper or any other suitable material. The lid is provided by an insert for a cup that generally serves as a lid. It can be utilized with a cover for the insert and a plug for the insert. These parts can be used in different combinations but the minimum requirement is that a cup is equipped with the insert.

Title: Light-weight single joint manipulator arm
Inventor: BEGNAUD BRIAN DAVID
IPC: E21B19/087
Filed: 2007-09-07
Abstract: The present invention provides an apparatus and a method for making up tubular strings in a well. The present invention provides a single joint manipulator arm for manipulating and positioning tubing joints for coupling into a tubular string. In one embodiment, a string elevator is supported by a hoist. A single joint elevator (22) is supported on a swing arm (18) that is pivotally secured to the sub-hoist assembly. An actuator (21) rotates the swing arm to an initial position for securing to an add-on tubular joint whereby the single joint elevator engages a proximate end of the add-on tubular joint. As the hoist is lifted, a damper dampens rotation of the swing arm as it finds gravitational equilibrium with the single joint held in a substantially vertical orientation. A distal end of the tubular joint is aligned with a casing string supported by a spider, and the tubular joint is threadably coupled to the tubular string. The actuator may include provisions to power the arm from the vertical orientation to a substantially horizontal orientation and also to dampen the movement of the arm as it moves from the substantially horizontal or an intermediate position to the vertical orientation once the single joint elevator engages the add-on tubular joint and the hoist suspends the joint for rotation.

Title: An apparatus and a method for detecting a communication channel
Inventor: DURAZ ERIC
IPC: H04B7/185
Filed: 2008-06-18
Abstract: The present invention provides a method and a device for detecting a communication channel in whose frequency band (.DELTA.f ) radio signals are transmitted by different radio signal sources inside a cabin. In this case a wide band antenna (2) receives the radio signals transmitted inside the cabin. Different demodulators (8) are provided, each of which demodulate the radio signals received by the wide band antenna (2) within an associated frequency range (.DELTA.F) of the demodulator (8). A configuration logic (4) establishes whether, in a frequency band (.DELTA.f) within a demodulated frequency range (.DELTA.F), radio signals are being transmitted simultaneously by different radio signal sources, in the case of impermissible signal transmissions of a radio signal source, e.g. when a non-safety-relevant system transmits signals in the same frequency band (.DELTA.f ) of a safety- relevant system in the same frequency bands .DELTA.f of a safety-relevant system, the non-safety-relevant system is reconfigured by the configuration logic and an alarm or warning signal is generated as an indication of the impermissible condition.
