Patent CA-2056650-A1 (CA)
Title: Log haulers securement system
Inventor: BAILEY WARNER
IPC: B60P7/12
Filed: 1991-11-29
Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A load tie-down and arrangement for securing loads onto vehicles,  particularly non-uniform and abrasive loads such as logs onto log-hauling trailers, and for enhancing  the  safety  with which  such  loads  can be transported.   The tie-down includes a high abrasion resistant webbing capable of being attached at one end to the vehicle and at the other to a winching mechanism. The winching mechanism easily accommodates excess webbing for small load situations and is capable of being easily and quickly tightened or retightened during transport to offset any slack in the webbing which may have been created due to load shifting or settling.  A modified tie-down  can  be  used  to  encircle  the  load without attachment to the vehicle for increased security.

Abstract: ABSTRACT The  chair  according  to  the  invention  comprises  a supporting base (C), a seat (1) and a back (2) operatively connected to the seat so as to be able to be moved from an upright position to a reclined position. The chair is of the type including a linkage system (3, 7,  9, 11)  forming an articulated quadrilateral in which the seat (1) is supported by a substantially horizontal upper side and the back (2) is secured to a side articulated at one end (3) to said upper side and at the other end (7) to a lower side carried by the said supporting base (C). The said articulated quadrilateral is different from a parallelogram, i.e. it has at least two opposite sides which are not parallel to each other, whereby the movement of the back (2) to its reclined position will cause the rearward displacement and lifting of the front of the seat (1) and the rearward displacement and lowering of the rear of the said seat.

Inventor: DORNER WOLFGANG C
IPC: B65G23/44
Filed: 1992-01-03
Abstract: A conveyor construction including a frame having a pair of side rails with each side rail having a longitudinal T-shaped slot.  A plurality of cross members are connected between the side rails and support a bed plate.  An endless belt rides on the bed plate and is trained over an adjustable spindle assembly which is located at an end of the conveyor.  The spindle assembly includes a spindle journalled between a pair of side members that are mounted for sliding movement in the T-slots of the respective side rails.  A ratchet and pinion mechanism interconnects the conveyor frame with the spindle assembly and acts to move the spindle assembly longitudinally of the frame to tension the belt.  A belt tracking mechanism is associated with each side of the spindle assembly and includes a cam member which is engaged with the respective side member of the spindle assembly.  Individual rotation of the cam members serve to properly track the belt on the bed plate.  To attach components to the conveyor frame, spring loaded nuts are slidably mounted in the T-slots of the side rails and the components are attached to the spring loaded nuts.

Filed: 1992-03-05
Abstract: PRODUCTION OF DIHYDROCARBYL POLYSULFIDES        Abstract of the Disclosure Hydrocarbyl mercaptan is reacted with sulfur in the presence of added alumina catalyst. With tertiary alkyl mercaptans high yields of di-tert-alkyl trisulfides are formed with excellent selectivity. With primary alkyl mercaptansthe process can be controlled to form products enriched in either dialkyl disulfides or dialkyl trisulfides, and in either case little or no tetrasulfides are formed. The process is environmentally friendly in that halogen-containing reactants such assulfur chlorides are not used and thus the products are not contaminated with significant amounts of halogen residues.

Title: Device for connecting control current lines
Inventor: HEINZ JOACHIM
IPC: H02B1/36
Filed: 1991-04-17
Abstract: A device is disclosed for connecting control current lines in low voltage switchboard plants. The device should allow the control current in a plug-in distribution board to be easily maintained up to a test position of the rack and to be cut beyond this position when the rack is drawn out. The device has two multipoint plugs with plugs and sockets, of which the first is rigidly linked to the rack and the other is movably mounted over a limited path on two guiding pins the terminal cross-section of which is enlarged. In the test position, they are locked-in by elastic elements, ensuring complete contact between both multipoint plugs in this position already, when the rack is inserted. A plurality of control lines can be thus easily cabled with little attrition, in a reduced space within a plug-in distribution board and a test position can be reached by drawing out he rack.

Abstract: ABSTRACT   In an indoor game of hockey, it is known to have dangerous/injury causing characteristics when the articles of the game, such as hard sticks and projectiles, are used.  Space is usually inhibited for the indoor play of a game of this nature.  In this invention, the hockey blades are comprised of plastic cores encased by foam.  The ball is comprised of foam encased with velcro material for adhering purposes.  A foam ball, when used as a projectile, as in this case, would be safe and reduce risk of physical or personal injury.  In compensating for limited space indoors, this rendition of a hockey game is played on one's knees with knee pads for protection.  The net is constructed of plastic for a frame with a velcro sheet for backing so as to allow for an adhering surface for the ball when contact is made, therefor, resulting in a goal.

IPC: H04N5/208
Filed: 1991-12-20
Abstract: ABSTRACT           COMPATIBLE NON LINEAR PRE-EMPHASIS     FOR COMPOSITE VIDEO SIGNALS           When a video signal including a component modulated onto a subcarrier (such as a PAL signal) is subjected to a non-linear pre-emphasis known for MAC signals, with the object of reducing the effects of noise encountered in transmitting the composite signal through an f.m. channel, problems of noise and differential gain remain.  These problems are overcome by subjecting the composite signal to a filtering step, before application of the non-linear processing, so as to filter out the subcarrier, the chrominance subcarrier in a PAL signal, and to compand the chrominance sidebands.  Preferably a notch filter is used which has a notch shaped as a Gaussian curve.

Title: Apparatus for detecting high speed events
Inventor: MIGLIACCIO RICHARD A
IPC: G01J1/44
Filed: 1993-07-23
Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE     A photon emitting high speed event detector provides for the optimum detection and location of high speed events (15) such as strobe light sources, pulsed laser, gunfire, and lightning.  The detector includes a focal plane array (10), a control circuit (40) and a cueing sensor (25).  The focal plane array (10) is capable of receiving and storing photons which are emitted from a device.  The focal plane array (10) is continuously switched by the control circuit (40) between an integrate (charging) and non-integrate (clearing) state until a high speed event (15) is detected by the cueing sensor (25).  During the charging state, incident photon energy is stored by the focal plane array (10).  Upon detection of an event, the cueing sensor (25) instructs the control circuit (40) to hold the focal plane array (10) in the integrate state and the control circuit (40) reads out the stored charge which can be provided to a video monitor (57) for display.

Title: Reservoir engineering
Inventor: JELEN JAROSLAW
IPC: G06F17/13
Filed: 1993-07-23
Abstract: Reservoir Engineering ABSTRACT     A new multidomain direct (non-iterative) method for solving boundary value problems is disclosed. Using this method, the solution is expressed by a linear combination of auxiliary functions and unknowns which pertain to the boundaries of a subdomain. This approach enables one to solve problems independently and exactly, without any iterations between subdomains. As a consequence, different types of equations and coordinate systems may be considered in different subdomains. Moreover, different boundary conditions and variable in space time steps may be imposed on the subdomains as well. Applications are shown for initial boundary-value problems with known analytical solutions, including a highly nonlinear porosity equation.
