Patent CA-2843000-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BASSEIN SIMON
IPC: B62B13/08
Filed: 2014-03-13
Abstract: The 3-ski snow bike designs transform bicycles into 3-ski snow bikes that can be used for downhill and cross country snow biking. It consists of a bicycle frame with 1 permanent front ski instead of the front wheel and 2 detachable rear skis on each side. The 2 rear skis provide good snow bike stability while the short front ski allows for easy maneuverability.  These 3-ski designs are adaptable to most types of bicycles with pedals and rear wheel of bicycle attached and used to move the 3-ski snow bike cross country, or removed for downhill snow biking. The steering bar in addition to controlling the turns with the front ski can be used to move the 2 rear skis up/down, enabling the snow bike to lean during turns, or the rear skis can move freely for easier control on steep slopes. The 3-ski snow bike also has a breaking mechanisms (brake bar digging into snow), rear shocks for a smooth ride, and ski attachments that easily connect to most downhill ski bindings, so that the rider can change the length and type of rear skis, depending on size, ability, and snow biking terrain.

Title: Hygiene compliance monitor for a dispensing container
Inventor: WEGELIN JACKSON W
IPC: A61L2/26
Filed: 2012-09-13
Abstract: A hygiene compliance monitor for a dispensing container that dispenses material when a dispensing nozzle is actuated, includes a flexible main section having a receiving aperture through which the dispensing nozzle extends, so as to enable the main section to be removably attached to the dispensing container. Extending from the main section is a secondary section that is terminated by an attachment sleeve that is configured to removably retain the dispensing nozzle therein. A token, such as a magnet, is carried by the attachment sleeve and is detected by a sensor carried by the main section. Thus, when the dispensing nozzle is actuated to dispense material, the sensor detects the presence and non-presence of the token and accordingly updates a count value that is presented on a display that represents the number of actuations of the dispensing nozzle.

IPC: B64C27/28
Filed: 2014-08-11
Abstract: The invention provides a propulsion augmentation arrangement and method for a VTOL/STOL aircraft. It has a wing, located at a propulsion system intake. The relative angle between the wing and the propulsion system is variable. At hover, slow speed, the intake is pivoted adjacently to the wing, the wing shape predetermined to aerodynamically match a fraction of the intake, to create an increased streamlined continuous intake surface. Therefore the wing is exposed to propulsion airstream, creating lift, and augmenting thrust. At increased speed, the wing generates more conventional lift, the intake is pivoted to decrease drag and enable propulsion to generate more horizontal thrust. Above wing stall speed the system is configured for conventional wing-borne lift and thrust. At slow speeds the pivot angle controls thrust augmentation, at higher speeds it controls the produced lift and drag. A VTOL/STOL aircraft having the forementioned augmentation arrangement is described.
