Patent CA-2123799-A1 (CA)
Title: Method for Controlling the Regeneration of a Water Treatment System
Inventor: JANKE DONALD R
IPC: B01J49/00
Filed: 1993-09-23
Abstract: A water treatment apparatus has a tank that contains a resin bed through which water flows. The apparatus has a controller that occasionally measures the conductivity of the resin bed at two spaced apart locations to produce first and second conductivity measurements. The ratio of the two conductivity measurements then is calculated. The present ratio value, along with the minimum and maximum ratio values that occurred since a previous regeneration of the resin bed, are used to determine the movement of an exhaustion front through the resin bed. A probability of exhaustion also is determined and when that probability exceeds a given value, regeneration of the resin bed is initiated. The conductivity measurements are used to determine if the resin bed has lost efficiency and in which event a warning signal is sent to the user. During regeneration, the conductivity at one of the locations in the resin bed is monitored to detect whether a regenerant has entered the tank; if not another warning signal is sent to the user.

Patent CA-2138733-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MEDIN DAVID L
IPC: G01N33/02
Filed: 1994-12-21
Abstract: A perishable good integrity indicator includes a first oscillator for outputting a first clock signal which does not substantially vary in response to temperature. A second oscillator outputs a second clock temperature which varies as a function of temperature. A counter counts the pulses of the second clock signal during a time period determined by the first clock and outputs a count value. A data table receives the count value, translates the count value into a time temperature value representing the relationship of time and temperature during the time period and outputs the time temperature value to an .adder.      The adder adds the time temperature values output by the data table over time and outputs a cumulative time temperature value corresponding to shelf life for a product.

Title: Method of diagnosing cancer, precancerous state, or susceptibility to other forms of diseases by analysis of irf-1-specific rna in biopsy samples
Inventor: TANIGUCHI TADATSUGU
IPC: C12Q1/6886
Filed: 1995-02-23
Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of diagnosing cancer, precancerous state, and susceptibility to other forms of diseases, by use of a molecular marker, interferon-regulatory factor-1 (IRF-1). The method is characterized in that IRF-1-specific RNA is analysed in a sample obtained from blood or other biopsy material, preferably by reverse transcrip-tion/polymerase chain reaction. The invention is based on the unexpected finding that a novel mechanism of inactiva-tion of the tumor suppressor gene IRF-1 plays a crucial role e.g. in hematopoietic malignan-cies. An unusual exon skipping leads to RNA molecules which lack exon 2 or exons 2 and 3. The relative amounts of full-length RNA and shortened RNA molecules are significantly different in samples obtained from tumor patients as compared to healthy donors.

Title: Conveyor-bank filter apparatus
Inventor: FRANKENBERGER DIETER
IPC: B01D33/333
Filed: 1995-04-07
Abstract: Conveyor-band filter apparatuses, so called Paternoster filter rakes, which serve primarily for the mechanical cleansing of flowing sewage, are to be made capable by the invention of removing not only the normal filtered material, but also coarser fragments, from the conduit through which the sewage flows, without the usually steep conveying angle having to be varied; for this purpose, filter elements of the endless filter band are arranged in each case on the chain links and are designed on their end faces in such a way that only a small gap remains even in the state in which they are mutually pivoted relative to one another.  Furthermore, attached to the filter elements are filter rakes forming a horizontal lifting face which extends transversely through the conduit and which can nevertheless be kept clean by corresponding stripping devices.

Title: Decision taking device using viterbi algorithm estimations for a radiocommunication system
Inventor: MOUROT CHRISTOPHE
IPC: H04L25/08
Filed: 1995-05-16
Abstract: The device includes a number of terminals, with each terminal including a unit (14) for reception of information signals. The units use the Viterbi algorithm to equalise or decode the received signals after demodulation. An arrangement (18) calculates the manner and type of transmission of each branch of the Viterbi algorithm. Another arrangement (20) determines the quality level of a transmission parameter according to the result from the first arrangement (18). A comparator (24) compares the estimated level of quality to a required quality level for each parameter. A decision signal is generated according to the result of the comparison and supplied to a decision device (26). The decision device can modify one or more of the transmission characteristics in response to the decision signal. <IMAGE>
