Patent CA-2527784-C (CA)
Title: Cable d'alarme de securite triboelectrique, telemetrique ou a double usage et procede de fabrication de celui-ci
Inventor: HARMAN ROBERT KEITH
IPC: G08B13/186
Filed: 2004-07-28
Granted: 2012-10-30
Abstract: L'invention concerne un câble d'alarme de sécurité peu coûteux, un procédé de fabrication de celui-ci et un système de sécurité générale utilisant ce câble. Ledit câble est constitué d'un conducteur central, d'un séparateur d'air, d'un tube diélectrique de polyéthylène, d'un conducteur extérieur et d'une gaine de protection extérieure. Le conducteur central, qui est centré de manière lâche dans le câble coaxial, peut se déplacer librement par rapport au tube diélectrique. Le câble d'alarme s'utilise dans un système d'alarme passif ou dans un système actif d'alarme télémétrique pour déterminer l'emplacement d'une intrusion le long du câble. Dans la fonction d'alarme passive, lorsque le conducteur central se déplace, il touche une matière diélectrique appropriée de la série triboélectrique, p. ex. polyéthylène, qui peut être traitée afin de produire, par effet triboélectrique, un transfert de charge mesurable comme tension aux bornes. Dans un système actif, le conducteur central se déplace dans le diélectrique en réponse à une vibration de façon à produire un changement d'impédance pouvant être détecté. On peut modifier la construction d'un câble classique de qualité radioélectrique pour former un câble d'alarme en enlevant le fil diélectrique, afin de permettre au conducteur central de se déplacer librement dans l'espace d'air se situant à l'intérieur du tube diélectrique. L'invention concerne un procédé peu coûteux de fabrication d'un câble d'alarme, les éléments du câble étant facilement disponibles. Ce câble d'alarme est avantageux en ce que les propriétés triboélectriques passives du câble peuvent fournir, en réponse à une perturbation, une réponse en tension supérieure par rapport aux câbles existants.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for controlling injection of a reductant into a NO x containing exhaust gas stream from a combustion engine, where combustion of a known fuel takes place and where the NO x is reduced by selective cata- lytic reduction, SCR, in the presence of a SCR catalyst, comprising establishing signals related to exhaust gas flow, NO x concentration in the exhaust gas stream upstream of the catalyst, exhaust gas temperature upstream of the SCR catalyst, exhaust gas temperature downstream of the SCR catalyst and to input data for catalyst characteristics. From the signals an adjusted amount of the reductant is calculated by using a calculated amount of reductant and a value d(E*T)/dt, where E is the exhaust gas flow, T is the exhaust gas temperature upstream of the catalyst and t is time.

Title: Use of new fast-setting mortars for preparing products by means of pouring in foundry earth moulds
Inventor: COSTA UMBERTO
IPC: C04B40/06
Filed: 2005-02-08
Granted: 2012-07-24
Abstract: Described herein is the use of new cementitious mortars with a high degree of fluidity and short consolidation times in the production of cementitious products by means of pouring in foundry moulds. The mortars used contain water, a fast-setting cement, fluidifiers and/or superfluidifiers, setting regulators, and aggregates having a specific granulometric distribution. The aggregates are made up of two fractions with different grain size such that the ratio between the characteristic grain diameters of the two fractions is comprised between 2.2 and 3.2. The new mortars thus obtained have values of fluidity 2-3 times higher than those of mortars produced with traditional aggregates. The mortars thus produced are particularly suitable for filling, in a homogeneous way and without any application of vibration, foundry earth moulds; solidification in the moulds takes place in a short time and leads to the formation of products, including ones of a complex shape, with precise outlines and having good mechanical characteristics.

Title: Controller, system and method for providing supplementing water
Inventor: BROWN RODNEY JAMES
IPC: E03C1/02
Filed: 2005-07-22
Granted: 2011-11-22
Abstract: A controller (10) provides water to outlet (22) from a supplementing water supply (e.g. from a rainwater tank) attached to passage (18) in preference to a main water supply (e.g. from a mains water supply) attached to passage (14). If there is insufficient supplementing water to meet demand, then mains water flows through passage (14), around partition (36) and to outlet (22). If there is sufficient supplementing water for the demand, a supplementing water pump is activated, and the pressure of supplementing water in passage (18) is raised above a threshold level at which it is able to move piston (28) against mains pressure to seal against valve seat (34) and block the mains supply, so that supplementing water can flow to outlet (22) via one-way valve (42). Piston (28) has a larger effective area (28b) at its low pressure end than at it high pressure end (28a), so that the supplementing water threshold pressure level for moving the piston (28) to block the main supply passage (16) is less than mains pressure. Mains water is supplied if there is insufficient supplementing water or if the pump fails or there is a power outage, otherwise supplementing water is supplied.
