Title: Underwire water weight turbulence sensor
Inventor: GOSS JOHN D
IPC: D21G9/00
Filed: 1999-04-13
Abstract: A system and method of providing on-line turbulence measurements in a sheetmaking machine using water weight sensors in the wet-end of the sheetmaking machine and specifically under wire water weight measurements. Water weight readings are correlated to turbulence intensity levels by correlating ranges of water weights to intensity level intervals to obtain turbulence measurements or a turbulence profile. The turbulence measurements or profile is provided to a machine element controller which uses the measured turbulence information and target turbulence information to generate control signals. The water weight sensors can obtain independent machine direction (MD) and cross direction (CD) water weight measurements and consequently independent turbulence measurements can be determined so that turbulence can be controlled in both directions. Machine elements are controlled so that turbulence remains uniform across the CD and so that the MD turbulence profile is optimized to resemble a target profile.
Patent CA-2330048-A1 (CA)
Inventor: FLACK RON
IPC: A61M1/12
Filed: 1999-04-22
Abstract: A pump for pumping sensitive fluids, such as blood, having no mechanical contact between the impeller and any other structure. The pump comprises a pump housing, an impeller disposed within the pump housing, a magnetic bearing system for supporting and stabilizing the impeller in five degrees of freedom, and a conformally shaped magnetically linked motor for rotating the impeller. The magnetic bearing system and motor advantageously comprise electromagnets and permanent magnets for stability and control of the impeller, and to reduce size, weight, and pump power consumption. Permanent and electromagnets are disposed on the pump housing and permanent magnets are disposed on the impeller such that by controlling electric current through the electromagnets on the housing, the magnetically suspended impeller functions as the rotor, and the housing as the stator of a D.C. motor. The system advantageously allows for sensing of relative impeller position and dynamic properties without the need for additional sensors. The fluid inlet, pump impeller, housing, and other components are configured such that flow patterns are as smooth and laminar as possible to reduce damage to the fluid, and such that eddies, flow separation, and re-circulation are reduced. In various embodiments, the pump is suitable for short or long-term implantation as a ventricular assist device or as a complete replacement heart in a human patient.

Abstract: An apparatus and method warn drivers of a hazardous condition experienced by  another driver. The apparatus generally includes a warning indicator (200), such as for example a strobe light, coupled to a vehicle controller (100). T he vehicle warning controller (100) is connected between a power source (101) a nd a plurality of vehicle detecting circuits (5-8) which detect the activation of a safety device. Vehicle detecting circuits (5-8) can include antilock braki ng system (ABS) detecting circuit, an airbag deployment detecting circuit, a rollover protection detecting circuit and an obstacle detector detecting circuit. When at least one of the vehicle's detecting circuits (5-8) detects  the activation of a safety device due to a hazardous condition, a signal is sent to the vehicle warning controller (100). The warning indicator (200) is  activated in response to a signal from the vehicle's warning controller (100 ).

Patent CA-2335075-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BROOKS ANDREW G
IPC: E21B47/022
Filed: 1999-06-11
Abstract: The present invention provides a method for determining magnetometer errors during wellbore survey operations. It is capable of determining errors on up to three axes, with or without the use of an external reference measurement of the local magnetic field, and is capable of providing an accurate result using data from a minimum number of surveys.      A model is used to correct the observed data and the corrected data are transformed from the tool coordinate system to a different coordinate system referenced to the earth. The difference between the corrected transformed data and reference data in the earth coordinate system is minimized to determine the model parameters.      The present invention also provides a method for determining residual uncertainty in the measurements and for quality control of the measurements. By making the observations over a period of time, any deterioration of the sensors may be identified.

IPC: G02B6/036
Filed: 1999-08-06
Abstract: Une fibre optique à compensation de dispersion, associée à une fibre optique mono-mode à dispersion nulle pour une longueur d'ondes d'environ 1,3 µm peut composer une ligne de transmission, qui procure des caractéristiques de transmission améliorées et une compensation efficace de dispersion. La pente de dispersion totale d'une ligne de transmission optique est ainsi améliorée alors que la dispersion d'une fibre optique mono-mode est bien compensée. Cette fibre optique à compensation de dispersion présente une structure à triple revêtement faite d'une première couche, d'une deuxième couche et d'une troisième couche qui sont appliquées en séquence sur le coeur. La différence d'indices de réfraction relatifs entre régions ainsi que leurs diamètres extérieurs sont optimisés alors que la dispersion de la fibre optique mono-mode est compensée de façon que l'on arrive à réaliser un système de transmission optique présentant une pente de dispersion totale intéressante.

Title: Process to manufacture tight tolerance embedded elements for printed circuit boards
Inventor: ANDRESAKIS JOHN A
IPC: H05K1/09
Filed: 2001-05-01
Abstract: A process for forming printed circuit substrates incorporating impedance elements in which a pattern of impedance elements and a conductor pattern are incorporated on an insulating support. The process involves depositing a layer of an impedance material on a first surface of a sheet of an electrically highly conductive material and attaching a second surface of the sheet of highly conductive material to a support. Then one applies a layer of a photoresist material onto the layer of impedance material with imagewise exposure and development. After etching away the portion of the impedance layer material underlying the removed nonimage areas of the photoresist material, a pattern of impedance elements remain on the sheet of highly conductive material. Thus printed circuit board with impedance elements can be manufactured to a high degree of electrical tolerance.
