Patent CA-2193334-A1 (CA)
Title: Cryogenic tire disintegration process and apparatus
Inventor: MURO LOUIS
IPC: B02C19/18
Filed: 1996-12-18
Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for disintegration of thermoplastic elastomeric materials containing fibres, wires or the like. This method comprises the following two steps: subjecting segments of the elastomeric materials to temperatures able to bring the segments into a brittle glass-like state (by means of a freezing chamber), and gradual disintegrating of the frozen segments by disintegrating means provided to separate the segments from the wires and fibres. This disintegration is effected by means of a bending force applied to the frozen segments causing them to break into small particles while the wires and fibres remain substantially intact. After the disintegration, separation of the small particles, wires and fibres takes place by separating means. The disintegrating means comprises a roll means, where the roll means is provided with mating bending surfaces spaced apart from each other at predetermined distances and facilitating maximum bending and breaking of the frozen segments being advanced between the roll means. The roll means may comprise two sets of rolls, where distance between the first set of rolls is bigger than the distance between the second set of rolls to facilitate gradual breaking of the frozen segments. The mating bending surfaces are a plurality of semi-spherical heads, where the heads are spaced from each other in such a way that heads on the mating surface of one roll are mating with a space between heads on the mating surface of another roll.

Title: Replaceable hockey stick blade assembly
Inventor: HEYDUK HENRY
IPC: A63B59/70
Filed: 1997-05-21
Abstract: A replaceable hockey stick blade assembly for installation onto a reusable hollow-ended hockey stick shaft comprises a blade member including an upwardly extending shaft fitting hozel portion having a tapered portion that narrows toward a top end of the hozel portion. A wedge member is adapted to securely fit in wedging relation between the tapered portion of the hozel portion and an interior surface of the reusable hollow-ended hockey stick shaft. A locking member is securely connected to the wedge member and is selectively movable between a locking position whereat the locking member abuts against a co-operating substantially downwardly facing receiving surface on the blade member, and a non-locking position whereat the locking member is removed from abutment against the co-operating substantially downwardly facing receiving surface on the blade member. When the locking member is in place in the locking position, the locking member locks the wedge member in place along the longitudinal axis with respect to the blade member, thereby precluding the wedge member from being unwantedly removed from the wedging relation between the hozel portion and the interior surface of the reusable hollow-ended hockey stick shaft, and accordingly precluding the blade member from becoming unwantedly removed from secure operative installation in its the in-use position on the reusable hollow-ended hockey stick shaft.

Title: Ball valve coupling
Inventor: ZANDER DAVID G
IPC: F16K5/06
Filed: 1995-09-22
Abstract: This invention relates to an environmental coupling that reduces spillage to less than 1 ml. One ball valve (22') includes flat surfaces (102') on the ball and a retainer (104') with "flats" (106') that correspond  to the "flats" on the ball valve. This feature keeps the ball valve (22') on centerline and allows valve actuation without damage to either ball valve. The coupling also provides other numerous safeguards against spillage. For instance, the handle design prohibits wrong sequencing of opening and closing the ball valves.
Patent CA-2210576-A1 (CA)
Title: Goalie pants with telescopic padding
Inventor: WAGNER STEVE
IPC: A41D1/08
Filed: 1997-07-16
Abstract: Goalie pants provided with a space within the pants in which the upper protective pad of the goalie can be received. This space enables the goalie to freely move without causing any bunching of the upper pad or the pants that may lead to a lack of comfort. A second innovative feature of the improved goalie pants resides in the provision of overlapping thigh and knee padding elements that can move between a retracted and an extended position. In the extended position, the thigh and the knee padding elements are arranged such that they provide a continuous protection of the thigh and the knee. The overlapping relationship between the knee and the thigh padding elements allow them to retract when the goalie is in a position such that other protective equipment (such as the pads covering the legs) interferes with the goalie pants. A third innovative feature resides in the provision of a groin padding element that is mounted on the outside of the pants and forms a flap that overlaps the thigh padding element. This structure allows the groin padding element to smoothly slide over the thigh padding element when the goalie kneels on the ice.

Title: Cold shrinkable protection element for cable joint
Inventor: CHEENNE-ASTORINO ANNIE
IPC: H02G15/18
Filed: 1997-11-25
Abstract: A shrinkable protection element for covering filiform items, such as a joint between electrical cables. The element comprises a first (2) and second (3) sleeve, the second sleeve being coaxially superimposed upon the first one.  Both sleeves are elastically expandable in radial direction, i.e. shrinkable. The first sleeve is made up of a compound of cross-linked polymeric material including a peroxide curable hydrocarbon terpolyme of ethylene, propylene and a non conjugated dilene EPDM material, whilst the second sleeve is made of sulfur-cured EPDM material. As a result, the shrinking speed of the second sleeve (3) is higher than that of the first sleeve (2), especially at temperatures between 0 °C and 40 °C. The cables may thereby be used about 30 minutes after the installation of the protection element thereon.
