Patent CA-2309069-A1 (CA)
Inventor: OSTROVSKY JOHN
IPC: A47G1/06
Filed: 2000-05-19
Abstract: A poster or banner hanger, which may also comprise a member of a picture frame, consists of an elongate flat base which supports a picture, and a flip-open cover rotatably mounted to the base. A wall extends the length of the base, and positions a picture within the member. The cover and base are urged together by biassing means, consisting of a generally striplike member joining the wall and cover. Compressive forces between the biassing means and the wall are absorbed by a resilient hinge, which assists in converting compressive forces, into a force urging the cover and base together. This is achieved at least in part by the biassing means and cover meeting at an acute angle, which forces the cover downwardly in response to a compressive force exerted by the biassing means.

Title: Mosaic based image processing system and method for processing images
Inventor: IRANI MICHAL
IPC: G06T3/00
Filed: 1995-11-14
Abstract: A system (100) for automatically generating a mosaic from a plurality of input images. The system sequentially executes an image alignment process, an editing process, and a combining process such that, from a sequence of images (902), the system automatically produces a seamless mosaic (904) for various applications. Illustrative applications for the mosaic include a mosaic based display system (104) including an image printing system, a surveillance system (108) and a mosaic based compression system (110). The mosaic based display system (104) permits a system user to display, manipulate and alter a mosaic. The mosaic based compression system (110) exploits the temporal and spatial redundancy in image sequences and efficiently compresses the image information. The compression system (110) can be used for compressing image information for storage in a storage device or can be used for compressing image information for transmission through a band-limited transmission channel. The surveillance system (108) combines the mosaic construction system, the compression system and the display system into a comprehensive system for remote motion detection.

Patent CA-2326848-A1 (CA)
Inventor: KOHN ANDREW FRED
IPC: B60H3/00
Filed: 2000-12-28
Abstract: Due to daily driving conditions that are always dynamic and changing, there is a dangerous effect caused by the build-up of a colorless and odorless gas called carbon monoxide in the inside of the vehicle. The symptoms from this effect we have all experienced are: dizziness, headaches, blurred vision. Currently on the higher end vehicles have a separate ventilation feature to circulate fresh filtered-air into the cabin; However, to activate that special feature the driver has to always remember when it is needed or not, and while driving lean over and push this button which in many cases can lead to accidents. Furthermore, by the time they feel dizzy and reach over to activate the special system it is too late because the carbon monoxide has already been inhaled into all the occupants blood streams. The process presented herein does not rely on a human component that is needed to remember and choose when to push the button or not, it is done automatically.     The model is called the Automatic Carbon Monoxide Car Detector(ACMCD). The ACMCD would work automatically with sensors(1&2), relays(8), adjustable engine vents(3) and filtered-air supplying vents(4), and a master Computer Programmable Unit(CPU) Chip(7) integrating all parts to create a unified whole resulting in superior driving enjoyment. For example, if the vehicle is stuck in heavy traffic the exterior and interior sensors will send signals to the CPU with CO  levels information, the CPU will make a very fast, accurate decision and send the signals very fast back to the engine vents closing them, and opening the filtered-air vents; smoothly, quickly, quietly and effectively ensuring the driver and all occupants are breathing clean filtered-air while driving. The CO levels information as an option could be displayed with a visual signaling device(5) and/or an auditory signaling device(6) to ensure driving for everyone is much safer.

Title: Methods of extracting catalyst from a reaction mixture in the oxidation of cyclohexane to adipic acid
Inventor: DASSEL MARK W
IPC: C07C51/42
Filed: 1999-07-02
Abstract: This invention relates to methods of controlling the oxidation of cyclohexane to adipic acid in the presence of a monobasic acid solvent, by extracting the catalyst from the reaction mixture, outside the reaction zone. Substantially all the unreacted cyclohexane, the majority of adipic acid, and preferably substantially all the monobasic acid solvent are removed from the reaction product. In the case that substantially all the monobasic acid solvent is removed, protic solvent, is added intermittently or continuously in the reaction mixture during the removal of the monobasic acid solvent, preferably by distillation, thus preventing solids precipitation. Dipolar aprotic solvent is then added in the presence of an adequate amount of the protic solvent (the total of dipolar aprotic solvent and the protic solvent constituting a novel combination solvent) to maintain a single liquid phase, followed by a step of extracting substantially all the catalyst in protic solvent. The catalyst extract is preferably recycled to the reaction zone, where the cyclohexane is oxidized to adipic acid. Thus, the novel combination solvent, which is preferably a combination of cyclohexanone with water, allows the dissolution of the reaction product, preferably after removal of the majority of the adipic acid, followed by a substantially complete extraction of the catalyst in water. No catalyst precipitation takes place, and all disadvantages and costs of solids handling are prevented.
