Patent CA-2485605-A1 (CA)
Title: Method of starting, stopping and operating gas sensor with built-in heater
Inventor: SUZUKI AKIHIRO
IPC: G01N33/00
Filed: 2003-05-12
Abstract: A control apparatus for a gas sensor with a built-in heater is provided which can prevent damage to, deterioration of, and reduction in accuracy of detection of, a gas sensor. When an ignition switch is turned ON, supply of electricity to a heater 27 starts, and when the temperature in the vicinity of a gas sensor 15 (gas temperature of gas detection chamber 24) Ts becomes greater than a predetermined temperature #Ti at start, or when a predetermined electricity supply time after start of supply of electricity to the heater 27 has elapsed, the gas sensor 15 is started. The flow of off-gas is started simultaneously with starting of the gas sensor 15, or after starting. When the ignition switch is turned OFF, the flow of off gas is stopped, and the supply of electric power to the gas sensor 15 is stopped. In a state where a temperature difference AT  between the gas temperature Ts inside the gas detection chamber 24, and an upstream gas temperature Tg is maintained within a predetermined range, the supply of electricity to the heater 27 is stopped after a predetermined time has elapsed after operation of the gas sensor 15 is stopped.

Title: Addition of comminuted meat trimmings to meat muscles
Inventor: SCHNELL TIMOTHY DALE
IPC: A23L13/40
Filed: 2005-01-04
Abstract: A method of incorporating fat-containing meat trimmings into cuts of lean meat. Comminuted fat or meat trimmings are comminuted to form fine particles without the use of a brine or pickle solution. The fine particles are then mixed or tumbled cuts of lean meat. The fat or meat trimmings are thereby incorporated-into the meat and dispersed throughout. This process may be used to incorporate added fat to cuts of meat to enhance the flavor, tenderness, and moistness of the meat product while maintaining the pleasing texture, appearance, and consistency of lean, trimmed meat.

Title: Broadcast message segmentation for wireless communication systems
Inventor: SINNARAJAH RAGULAN
IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 2003-08-07
Abstract: Techniques for transmitting and receiving segmented broadcast messages to improve performance. At a transmitter, a broadcast message to be transmitted over a wireless channel is partitioned into a number of segments and a header is formed for each segment. Each segment header may include (1) a sequence number, (2) a first segment indicator, and/or (3) a last segment indicator. A  segmented broadcast message is generated with the segments and their headers, and is transmitted multiple times to improve reliability. At a receiver, one or more message repetitions are received for the segmented broadcast message.  Each received message repetition is processed to recover good segments, if any, for the broadcast message. The good segments from the received message repetition(s) are then combined to recover the broadcast message. The processing may terminate whenever all segments of the broadcast message have been recovered.

Title: Sleeve piston fluid motor
Inventor: HARTWICK PATRICK W
IPC: F03C1/00
Filed: 2004-02-19
Abstract: The present invention is a cylindrical linear fluid motor (10) comprising a plurality of reciprocating rotary piston sleeve (42) intermediate an inner coaxial hollow drive shaft (20) and an outer cylindrical housing (30).  Rotating disc valves (71) at both ends of the sleeve piston (42) control the sequential flow of high-pressure and low-pressure fluid through ports in both the drive shaft (20) and housing (30). High-pressure fluid acts on one end of the sleeve piston causing the piston to travel laterally along the drive shaft, with an inner set of roller balls (25) in linear raceways (24,46) ensuring no rotation between each piston and the drive shaft. The linear motion simultaneously affects exhausting of low-pressure fluid at the other end of the piston. Outer balls (50) are seated in the housing and a sinusoidal circumferential raceway (48) of each piston, to affect rotation in the piston from the lateral motion. As a piston reaches the limit of its linear travel the rotating disc valve (71) on one end closes inlet ports (15) and opens exhaust ports (17), while another rotating disc valve closes exhaust ports (17) and opens inlet ports (15) at the other end, causing the high-pressure fluid to reverse the piston's lateral direction of movement. The multiple pistons of a motor are rotationally sequenced to create consistent power production throughout 360-degree rotation, of the pistons.
