Patent CA-2818507-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SMEDMAN BJORN
IPC: H04W48/20
Filed: 2011-11-21
Abstract: There is provided methods, devices and computer program products for automatically connecting an IEEE 802.11terminal to a virtual IEEE 802.11 wireless network and thereby establishing a data connection to a remote data communications network. A terminal sends a service provider request to an access point. The service provider request is forwarded to a master server which searches for an association between the terminal and a service provider and a service provider server for available service providers. Acknowledgement information relating to a service provider server associated with available service providers capable of operatively connecting the terminal to the data communications network via the access point is sent by the master server to the access point. The access point establishes a virtual IEEE 802.11 wireless network based on this. A data connection may be established in the absence of a direct service agreement between the service provider of the terminal and the operator of the access point without requiring a reconfiguration of the terminal.

Patent CA-2831252-A1 (CA)
Title: Multi-source power converter
Inventor: EMADI ALI
IPC: H02M7/00
Filed: 2013-10-25
Abstract: A multi-source power converter is proposed to permit bidirectional DC to AC conversion from n (n>=2 and n .epsilon. N) DC voltage sources to an AC load with a reduced number of switches, and DC to DC conversion. Both single and three phases AC load are considered. The proposed topology consists in a single stage of conversion, and therefore a high efficiency can be expected for the system. Any type of DC sources can be used in the system (fuel-cell, battery, ultra-capacitor, photo-voltaic cells, DC bus, DC to DC or AC to DC converter, etc.). The AC load can be either single or three phases (single-phase AC grid/microgrid, three-phase electric machines, induction machine, synchronous machine, etc.). There is no requirement for the n DC voltage source values; they can be equal or different and they can be used individually or together by the converter to generate the AC output. If different DC voltage values are used, the converter can be controlled to generate a multi-level AC voltage. This permits to improve system's voltage and current power quality and to reduce electro- magnetic interferences (EMI). Therefore gains on both differential and EMI filters design can be expected.

Title: Method of producing a hydrocarbon composition
Inventor: EILOS ISTO
IPC: C01B3/50
Filed: 2012-05-30
Abstract: Method of producing a hydrocarbon composition. In the method a biomass raw-material is gasified produce a raw syngas containing carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and hydrogen, the hydrogen-to-carbon monoxide ratio being about 0.5 to 1.7. A part of the impurities is removed to produce a clean syngas which is fed into a Fischer-Tropsch reactor where a significant part of the carbon monoxide and hydrogen is converted to a hydrocarbon composition containing C4-C90 hydrocarbons. From the Fischer-Tropsch reactor a hydrocarbon composition is recovered which mainly contains hydrocarbons which are solid or semisolid at ambient temperature and pressure and an off-gas of the Fischer- Tropsch reactor, comprising hydrocarbons which are gaseous at ambient temperature and pressure, is used for producing hydrogen gas; and the hydrogen thus produced is fed into the clean syngas. By introducing hydrogen into the clean syngas, the hydrogen to carbon monoxide ratio can be increased and by using off-gas-produced hydrogen, the capacity of the process is significantly improved.

Abstract: Devices and methods for vacuum-assisted removal of surgically contaminated gas from an insufflated body cavity, the contaminants comprising smoke, aerosols, vapor, mist and the like generated during surgical procedures in order to clear the surgeon's vision of the surgical site and prevent exposure of the surgical staff to the gas. One embodiment of the present invention comprises a series of flow restriction devices to enable stepping down of the flow rate generated by an external vacuum. This reduced flow rate allows safe yet rapid removal of the toxic and vision-obstructing surgical byproducts from the patient's body cavity. The initial flow restriction device may comprise a perforated trocar sleeve in fluid communication with the vacuum source that allows retention of the surgical instrument within the trocar's inner lumen with concurrent smoke removal. The flow rate is infinitely variable, adjustable and selectable using a flow control adjuster comprising a smoothly varying orifice.

Abstract: A local air purification device (1) is equipped with: a push hood (2) having an airflow opening surface (23) which discharges a purified uniform flow of air; and a guide (3), which is provided on the airflow opening surface (23) side of the push hood (2), and which extends from the airflow opening surface (23) side toward the downstream side of the uniform flow of air and forms an opening surface (31) at the downstream end. The push hood (2) is arranged such that the uniform flow of air discharged from the airflow opening surface (23) passes through the interior of the guide (3) and then collides with an air collision surface (W) downstream from the opening surface (31). With the guide (3) an open region is formed between the opening surface (31) and the air collision surface (W) by arranging the opening surface (31) at a distance from and facing the air collision surface (W). The purified uniform flow of air discharged from the airflow opening surface (23) collides with the air collision surface (W) and flows to the outside of the open region, and thus the interior of the guide (3) and the interior of the open region have higher purity than other regions.
