Patent CA-2403298-A1 (CA)
Inventor: LETT RALPH
IPC: A63C10/14
Filed: 2001-03-13
Abstract: A swivel mount for a board binding includes a base mountable to an upper surface of a board, and a swivel plate rotatably mounted on the base for relative swivelling rotation of the swivel plate relative to the base between a ride position and forward-walking positions. A rotational resistance device cooperates between the swivel plate and the base for increasing rotational resistance above that of free-floating rotation but without locking of the swivel plate in a preset locking position when swivelling the swivel plate through the radial arc of the forward-walking positions. A ride position latch releasably locks the swivel plate in the ride position. An actuator releases the ride position latch. The applied force urges the swivel plate to swivel from said ride position to the forward-walking positions.

Inventor: ROOKE NADEGE
IPC: G01N30/86
Filed: 2001-05-10
Abstract: A method and apparatus is described for establishing a database comprising numerical values characteristic of the interaction of compounds and surfaces, such as stationary phases in a chromatographic system. In accordance with the invention a mobile phase flow gradient is used for enhancing efficiency and data precision in high throughput drug screening protocols. The chromatographic system includes an eluent flow splitter (10) in fluid communication with the chromatographic unit and the detector to minimize variation in flow rate to the detector with variation of rate of flow of the mobile phase is in the chromatographic unit. With use of a detector capable of providing a signal of the presence, or more preferably an identifying characteristic, of compounds eluting from the system, the invention provides a powerful method for creating a database of numerical values characteristic of the interaction of solute test compounds with a mobile phase and a stationary phase in at least two chromatographic separation systems. Data can be generated efficiently and stored in algorithm accessible electronic storage systems (databases) for use alone or in combination with other molecular descriptors for prediction of biological activity.

Title: Electronic tampering detection system
Inventor: WILSON ALLAN
IPC: G08B13/12
Filed: 2002-10-25
Abstract: ABSTRACT An electronic tampering detection system is applied to a blank which can be formed into a package through the use of closure tabs which are coated with an electrically conductive adhesive. An electronic chip or CPU is applied to the blank and electrically conductive traces are printed or otherwise formed on the blank to connect the CPU to first pair of the closure tabs to form an electric circuit. Other traces on the blank connect the first pair of closure tabs to the other closure tabs to form an enlarged circuit. The CPU has procedure memory, data memory, a power source, a clock and communication means associated therewith. If a package is opened accidentally or intentionally before is should be opened by way of the closure tabs the electric circuit is broken and a time stamp from the CPU clock is stored in the data memory for later retrieval. The circuit can be formed as resistances in parallel and an analog to digital converter can be used to provide an appropriate signal to the CPU. The electric circuit can cover a large portion of the blank's surface to provide a signal in the event of unauthorized penetration of the formed package.
