Patent CA-2827607-A1 (CA)
Inventor: OBRIST GERY
IPC: A01G7/06
Filed: 2012-02-20
Abstract: A plug may be releasably mounted on a tip of a nozzle of an injector, and the injector may be pushed toward a borehole in a tree trunk so as to introduce and mount the plug in the borehole using the injector. Then, the injector may be operated to inject liquid into the borehole by way of the plug. Then, the injector may be withdrawn from the tree trunk, and the plug may remain in the borehole, such as for reuse. The plug may at least seek to function as a barrier device for both restricting contact between the borehole and the injector's nozzle, and restricting any backflow of the liquid from the borehole through the plug. The plug may include an elastic tube that functions as a check valve for restricting backflow through the plug.

Title: Metal detector for production and packaging lines
Inventor: BUTTERWORTH DAREN
IPC: G01V3/10
Filed: 2013-02-12
Abstract: A metal detector (420) has a metallic enclosure (421) with an entrance aperture (430) and an exit aperture (431) whose cross-sectional areas differ from each other. Arranged inside the enclosure (421) is a coil system with at least one transmitter coil (423) and at least one first and at least one second receiver coil (424, 425). The entrance and exit apertures (430, 431) and the coil system (423, 424, 425) enclose a detection zone (428) through which objects under inspection move along a travel path entering the metal detector (420) through the entrance aperture (430) and leaving the metal detector (420) through the exit aperture (431). The detection zone (428) is asymmetric and its cross-sectional profile varies along the travel path from the entrance aperture (430) to the exit aperture (431), wherein the coils (423, 424, 425) differ in size from each other. The first and second receiver coils (424, 425) are connected in series with each other, but their windings are wired with the opposite sense of rotation relative to each other. The at least one transmitter coil (423), when energized by an alternating electric current, generates a primary electromagnetic field which, in turn, induces a first voltage in the at least one first receiver coil (424) and a second voltage in the at least one second receiver coil (425). In spite of the asymmetry of the metal detector (420), the first and second voltages cancel each other when there is no metal present in the objects moving through the detection zone.
