Patent CA-2344116-A1 (CA)
Inventor: LANDRY FRANCIS
IPC: A63F7/06
Filed: 2001-04-17
Abstract: Pour qu'un jeu de volley-ball sur table soit représentatif du même sport, l'idée nouvelle est de faire circuler une balle entre deux feuilles de plexiglas ou tout autre feuille transparente courbée au-dessus d'un filet. La balle est frappée par des figurines situées sous les feuilles transparentes. Ces figurines sont actionnées par des moteurs électriques ou des bascules, pivots et levier, selon que le jeu soit fabriquer en version électronique ou en version mécanique. Les figurines sont donc soulevées pour s'introduire (par des ouvertures rectangulaires) à l'intérieur (entre les deux feuilles transparentes) et ainsi frapper la ball e pour la dirigée vers le côté adverse. Les figurines sont actionnées en appuyant sur des boutons placés à chaque extrémitée du jeu. Lorsque la balle est ratée par l'un ou l'autre des deux joueurs, elle tombe dans un dalot incliné situé à chaque extrémitée du jeu et descend pour aller se placée sur  une petite catapulte située à la gauche devant chaque clavier. Cette catapulte étant actionnée de la même façon que les figurines permet la  remise au jeu de la balle.

Abstract: A point-to-multipoint communications network connecting multiple subscribers to a single communications line at the service provider distribution equipment, for example in a DSL communications system. A plurality of subscriber communications interfaces are connected in parallel to form a local group in which, at any particular point in time, only one communications interface serves as a master communications interface and the other communications interfaces serve as slaves. Each communications interface may be capable of serving as the master communications interface according to a demand division multiplexing technique, which assigns master status based on upstream data demands. As a communications interface is switched to master status, the communications interface previously holding master status out of the other serially connected communications interfaces is switched back to slave status, capable of receiving downloaded data from the DSL distributor and uploading data packets to the master communications interface. A plurality of communications interfaces can thus be connected to a single communications port without increasing the upstream transmission bandwidth requirements. At the service provider, multiple network modems can each be designed to communicate at a different frequency, either fixed or variable, and thus assigned to single port, with each network modem communicating at a frequency separated from the frequencies of the other network modems, to substantially increase the bandwidth of the transmission medium. The allocation of frequencies can be controlled dynamically by a microprocessor, based on any desired factors and/or bit error rate testing

Title: Method for weight controlled batching out of articles having non-uniform weight
Inventor: NIELSEN ULRICH CARLIN
IPC: G01G19/30
Filed: 1999-10-15
Abstract: In connection with a weight controlled batching out of foodstuff items with non-uniform weight it is commonly practiced to produce batches with fixed target weight and preferably also with a fixed number of items in each batch , and yet additionally with different target weights for items from respective  different weight ranges, e.g. "light" and "heavy" items, respectively. So fa r, this has been taken literally in the sense that a fixed limit has been set between the different weight intervals, but in connection with the invention  it is demonstrated that with the use of a grader technique it is highly advantageous to widen this limit into a certain "limit interval", as it is then possible to produce batches fully automatically with generally minimize d overweight and waste. A control computer may determine and effect or recomme nd relevant minor corrections of the control parameters for optimising the operation.

Abstract: The invention relates to a security room for information technology facilities, which exhibits fireproof side walls (2) comprising a sealing doo r (5), a floor (4) and a ceiling (3). Sealing of the room against heat effects  in case of a fire is essentially fostered by the fact that at least the side  walls (2) are assembled in a modular manner from individual fireproof member s (S, D, E) which are laid side-by-side and are in the form of panels extendin g from floor (4) to ceiling (3). In addition, fireproof sealing members (2.5, 2.6, 2.7, 2.8) are placed between the edges of said individual members (S, D , E). The individual members are held together by means of connecting elements  (2.9, 14) which compress the sealing elements (2.5, 2.6, 2.7, 2.8).

Filed: 2002-05-30
Abstract: An improved process for recovery of liquefied petroleum gas from a raw natural gas feed stream, capable of achieving ultra high propane recovery yields, thereby separating substantially all of the propane and heavier hydrocarbon components from a predominantly methane and ethane feed gas stream. The process includes steps to liquefy all of the propane and heavier components and part of the methane and ethane components by cooling, condensing, and absorption. The residual feed gas containing the methane and ethane components, being the final gaseous product stream. The liquefied portion of the feed is separated and then fractionated in a distilling unit to produce a propane and heavier product stream. The distilling unit overhead vapors are cooled and condensed in two steps to provide reflux for the top of the deethanizer and for the feed gas absorption.
