Abstract: The invention relates to a method for shaping an initial profile (16a) or a similar workpiece, which comprises a profile space, into a final profile by using an internal high pressure that is generated in the sealed profile space by a flowable active medium. In order to shape the initial profile (16n) comprising at least one corner area (28n), preferably at least two corner areas (28n), wall sections (34) which connect in the corner area (28n) are preshaped such that their cross-sections are curved counter to the direction of pressure, and are subsequently straightened by the internal high pressure of the flowable active medium while displacing the corner area (28n) in a direction of pressure. To this end, a profile comprising a profile space that is delimited by profile walls (22n) is used in which two profile walls (22n) define a corner area (28n) of the profile cross-section, whereby at least one of the profile walls (22n) connecting in the corner area (28n) is provided with an area (32) having a curved cross-section. A polygonal cross-section whose profile walls (22n) between the corner areas (28n) each comprise the inwardly curved area (32) or with which selected profile walls (22n) which connect two corner areas (28n) preferably offer a curved area (32).

Patent CA-2384035-A1 (CA)
Inventor: DOVERI MARCO
IPC: F15B15/14
Filed: 2002-04-30
Abstract: An actuating device (1) for the rotation of a stand (4) of a motorcycle (2) between a standing position and a rest position folded under the vehicle, and allowing also the reverse manoeuvre in order to rotate the stand from the position of vehicle on the stand up to that in which the vehicle lowers spontaneously. At least one hydraulic actuator (1) is provided that operates, between a first and a second position, an actuating member (7) or stem that engages with the stand (4) up to bringing it respectively from the rest position to the standing position. A flow control hydraulic circuit delivers liquid in pressure to the actuator (1) for moving the actuating member (7) from the first to the second position, and allows the back stroke of the actuating member (7) to the first position when the flow of the liquid ceases, whereby the stand (4) can be brought back to said rest position independently from the actuating member (7). When the stand is in the standing position and the actuating member (7) has turned back to the first position means are provided operated by the actuator (1) for starting the return rotation of the stand (4) from the standing position to the rest position up to a point wherein it is not necessary to bear the weight of the vehicle for carrying out the rotation. The actuator is particularly suitable for handling the stand of a motorcycle, with the advantages that in case of lack of pressure in the hydraulic circuit the stand is free in its movement towards the rest position in which it remains as if the device does not exist. Furthermore, the actuator makes easier the lowering step of the vehicle from the stand, even if the lowering from the stand is possible also in traditional way.

Patent CA-2399779-A1 (CA)
Title: Thrust bearing
Inventor: KROCHAK DARRYL D
IPC: F16C19/30
Filed: 2002-08-26
Abstract: The present invention provides an improved thrust bearing for extreme service applications through the use of a novel bearing cage assembly and improved surface design of the external face of the circular inside sidewall of the bearing cage assembly and race components. The novel bearing cage assembly allows for an increase in the quantity and size of the roller elements contained within the bearing cage, compared to others known in the art, which substantially increases the thrust bearings' load capacity. Moreover, the employment of a smooth curved surface on the external face of the circular inside sidewall of the bearing cage assembly and race components effectively eliminates any sharp edges and corners which could otherwise damage the rotating shaft. Thus, the combination of these two features substantially increases the load capacity, wear and durability of the thrust bearing components.

Abstract: Hand-held instruments (10) which may be employed to actuate a distally mount ed tool (16) by application of radial compressive force about the instrument (1 0) circumference (i.e., omni-actuatable). In preferred forms, hand-held instruments (10) have a handle (12) which includes an actuator assembly (14)  for actuating a tool (16), wherein the actuator assembly (14) has a generall y V-shaped circumferential channel (R1, R2, R3, R4) in which an actuator band (30, 32) is seated. A slide ring assembly (22, 24) is provided which defines  the generally V-shaped circumferential channel (R1, R2, R3, R4) and has at least one slide ring (22, 24) mounted for longitudinal movements relative to  the handle (12). The actuator band (30, 32) is radially flexible. Thus, in response to a compressive force, the actuator band (30, 32) seated within th e generally V-shaped channel (R1, R2, R3, R4) will be flexed radially inward t o thereby move the slide ring (22, 24) longitudinally. The slide ring (22, 24) , in turn, coacts operatively with the distally mounted tool (16) (i.e., throu gh a longitudinally slidable actuator pin (40)). Radial motion of the actuator band (30, 32) is thereby translated into longitudinal motion of the slide ring, which longitudinal motion is then employed to actuate the tool (16).</ SDOAB>

Abstract: A system for distributing dynamically constructed customized media content via a network. Content is assembled to create a customized product for a database-managed subscriber list both on-demand or at pre-defined intervals based upon collected information or a pre-defined content program. Content of future transmissions or their scheduling may be adjusted by the system based upon user-feedback provided interactively and on-line. Content is assembled by remotely callable daemon applications that can work in parallel to increase throughput and distribution from different locations. These applications may be deployed across multiple servers distributed over a local or wide area network, and enable the server to transmit content on a regular schedule and to manage multiple conduits for media distribution.  The system can schedule and reschedule a single or a series of deliveries over a period of time, and also includes the ability to reschedule, resend, or recreate content, reassembling it as needed.
