Patent CA-2283811-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MUNKBERG LARS
IPC: B42D15/00
Filed: 1998-03-13
Abstract: The object of the present invention is a follow-up arrangement comprising recording means as well as base means annexed thereto and having target fields (10) adapted for separate elements (13b, 13c). Said separate elements (13b, 13c) are included in a basic set of possible elements describing an event which is the object of the follow-up procedure. Said basic set constitutes a part which is pre-integrated in the arrangement, from which part each element (13b, 13c) can be chosen and annexed to an appropriate target field (10) according to external discriminative stimuli triggered by an event which is followed up. A method for the realization of a follow-up arrangement for a series of events is also an object of the present invention, wherein base means which generally describe an event are formed prior to the realization of a series of such events, as well as a basic group of elements (13b, 13c) describing possible separate features of said event. A further object of the invention is the use of folder means, intermediate means arranged therewithin as well as separate elements (13b, 13c) detachable from loose leafs in accordance with the principles presented above.

Patent CA-2289048-A1 (CA)
Title: Precursive messaging protocol for initiating position location
Inventor: PALAMARA MARIA E
IPC: H04W64/00
Filed: 1999-11-08
Abstract: The messaging protocol modifies current CDMA systems to initiate a position location function while providing minimal interference to the system and preserving battery life. There are circumstances when a mobile position location may need to be performed when the mobile 40 is in a mobile idle state, a system access state or a traffic channel state. These location requests can come from a serving base station or from the mobile. In addition, for certain location services, the position of the mobile may have to be located periodically. The messaging protocol describes how the position location function is to be initiated when the mobile is in various call processing states and identifies the messaging needed between the serving base station and the mobile. The serving base station transmits a location order message that includes location parameter data to the mobile. The mobile then transmits a location attempt message to the base station. The location attempt message is formatted according to the location parameter data and includes at least one location probe having the mobile identification number or a probe number. The CDMA system then determines the position of the mobile based on the location attempt.

Title: Overbased magnesium deposit control additive for residual fuel oils
Inventor: MUIR RONALD J
IPC: C10L1/20
Filed: 1999-02-25
Abstract: An overbased magnesium composition deposit control additive for residual fuel oils and turbine fuels is an overbased magnesium sulfonate, carboxylate or phanate or mixtures thereof containing at least 14 % and upwards to about 18 %  by weight of magnesium and containing a succinic anhydride and lower carboxylic acid co-promoter reaction product. The additive when added to fuel oils, such as residual fuel oils containing high asphaltenes, reduces, if not eliminates, magnesium/asphaltene deposits or sediment and the consequential plugging of filters. The additive also reduces, if not eliminates, vanadium caused corrosion in the turbine. The invention is also the process for preparing the overbased composition or deposit control additive, wherein the overbasing reaction incorporates the combination of a lower carboxylic acid, preferably acetic acid and a succinic anhydride, preferably dodecenyl succinic anhydride (DDSA), as the co-promoter.

Title: Dual injector for chemiluminescence immunoanalyzing system
Inventor: STARK WILLIAM A
IPC: G01N35/10
Filed: 1998-06-25
Abstract: A dual injector (28) for an automated immunoassay instrument is provided which allows the sequential detection for two different chemiluminescence labels within one instrument. The injector has four carefully designed orifices (76, 78, 80, 82). The orifices are designed to work in two pairs. Orifices one (76) and two (78) can be used to inject trigger reagents A and B which can trigger a chemiluminescent reaction, such as acridinium. Orifices three (80) and four (82) can inject trigger reagents C and D for triggering a chemiluminescent reaction, such as luminol.  The two pairs can be used in a sequential manner to generate signals in the wells of a cuvette. Thus, it is possible to run both acridinium and luminol based assays on one instrument. The injector is designed to fit into the wells of the cuvette and to inject the triggers in a manner which efficiently resuspends magnetic particles of one to eight microns in diameter. The design also prevents the contamination or carryover of trigger solutions from one orifice to another.

Patent CA-2302121-A1 (CA)
Inventor: LI MEI
IPC: G01N15/10
Filed: 2000-03-27
Abstract: The present invention relates to quality control of liquid metals and an apparatus for monitoring, on line, the flowing molten metal.  It has long been a desirable goal to be able to measure the quality of liquid metals in terms of the numbers and sizes of inclusions within a melt.  Since the 1960s, owing to the increasing use of foil and thin gauge products such as the aluminium beverage cans, aluminium companies such as Reynolds and Alcan had attempted to develop ultrasonic methods to detect inclusions in molten aluminium.  These met with little success, Alcan's twenty years of effort being abandon ed following the successful introduction of the LiMCA, trade-mark of Limca  Research Inc., (Liquid Metal Cleanliness Analyser) method by Doutre and Guthrie. This technique relies on the Electric Sensing Zone Principle (ESZ),  and was well known for aqueous systems, since the Coulter patents of 1954. The equivalent LiMCA method for liquid metals is also based on the ESZ principle , and is now in world-wide use in cast houses making critical quality alloys (AA3001, 3004) for the production of aluminium beverage cans, sheet and lithographic plates. The commercial equipment is manufactured under licence,  by Bomem, Quebec City, and is able to monitor, on line, the quality (number and  size distribution of inclusions) of molten aluminium flowing from the holding furnaces through a launder, into the moulds of a DC (Direct Chill) casting machine. S ee U. S. Patent 4,555,662, Doutre and Guthrie, issued November 26, 1985, and U.  S. Patent 4,600,880, for instance. Several other patents have since been obtain ed by  Alcan International.
