Title: Remorque avec bogie arriere articule
Inventor: MALTAIS ROBERT
IPC: B62D13/06
Filed: 1997-03-18
Abstract: Une remorque avec un bogie arrière articulé. Ce bogie a une partie avant librement fixée à un pivot qui s'étend verticalement sous la remorque. Le bogie a aussi un bloc dont la surface supérieure est pourvue d'une fente courbée de longueur limitée. Le bloc est positionné derrière le pivot et reçoit dans sa fente une tige verticale solidaire du dessous de la remorque afin de limiter le mouvement de pivotement du bogie. La remorque possède un dispositif de blocage pour retenir le bloc de sorte à empêcher le bogie de pivoter librement et un dispositif de contrôle pour activer le blocage lorsque la remorque recule et pour désactiver le blocage autrement. Ainsi, lorsque la remorque recule, le bogie est maintenu dans une position fixe, ce qui permet d'effectuer les manoeuvres usuelles de conduite arrière comme avec une remorque traditionnelle .
Patent CA-2202767-A1 (CA)
Inventor: CUMMINGS DONALD RAY
IPC: F02C3/22
Filed: 1995-10-27
Abstract: A combustor (2) for the combustion of fuel gas is described. The fuel gas entering the combustor (2) by an inlet pipeline (20) is a compressed admixture with air of a concentration below the lower explosive limit. The fuel gas/air admixture passes within a tube (6) to pass to the combustion zone (8) where combustion occurs only by reaction/self-combustion. The combusted gas passes by a tortuous path provided by an arrangement of baffles (10) to the outlet duct (22). The exhausting combusted gas passes over the outer surface of the tube (6) and gives up preheating heat to the inlet gas therein. A gas turbine system (100) for utilising waste fuel gas also is described that includes a combustor (2, 114) as described that provides combusted fuel to the expansion stage (104) of the turbine (100).

Inventor: DELEGEANE ANGELO
IPC: G16B50/30
Filed: 1995-09-06
Abstract: A relational database (1) for the storage of microbiological information. The database contains cDNA sequencing data (290, 300) and coresponding match logs (510, 515) indicating a correlation between presently identified cDNA sequences and previously known sequences. In addition, a variety of the tables that make up the database are used to store historical data related to the identification of a particular cDNA sequence. Such tables include biological source data (130); cell culture and treatment data (140); mRNA preparation data (150); cDNA construction data (170); and clone preparation data. The clone preparation data further includes tables containing data relevant to inoculation (200), preparation (210), excision (190), and a fluorometer (220, 230, 240). The interrelated information in the database allows various queries to be used to extract data for scientific analysis and other applications. For example an abundance analysis may be performed by using the database of the preferred embodiment to determine the frequency a particular RNA transcript appears in a certain source tissue.

Title: Interactive subscriber telephone terminal with automatic management software download feature
Inventor: GORDON IAN R
IPC: H04M1/2749
Filed: 1997-10-29
Abstract: Interactive subscriber telephone terminals have a display screen and softkeys which are controlled by management software.  The management software may be downloaded from a remote server to control the display and softkeys.  Different techniques for achieving this download are described.  In one case each subscriber terminal has a memory in which can be preloaded a list of one or more Calling Line ID numbers corresponding to the telephone number of a server(s).  If a server dials the subscriber terminal the calling line ID is compared with the list and, if there is a match, the terminal immediately goes off-hook and follows the protocol for a Server Initiated Download.  In an alternative case each subscriber terminal is capable of calling out to predetermined server lines to obtain the ADSI scripts.  This dial out of stored telephone numbers may be done on an automatic timed basis or may be initiated by a server calling a pager embedded in the subscriber terminal.

Title: A device and method for contouring ice skate blades
Inventor: SAKCRISKA GLENN
IPC: A63C3/10
Filed: 1997-12-17
Abstract: A device and a method for contouring an ice skate blade. The method comprises the steps of measuring the overall length of the soleplate of the boot and calculating the center point of the soleplate, transferring the center point of the soleplate to the blade and marking the center point of the soleplate onto the blade as the first calibration point. A second and third calibration point, calculated as 25 % of the soleplate length are marked from the first calibration point towards the toe and towards the heel of the blade. Toe and heel radius termination points are also marked. The device comprises a measuring tool for measuring the length of the soleplate and having calibration points and radii termination points preset on the device according to the soleplate length. The device therefore eliminates the calculation of all the calibration points and radii termination points each time an ice skate blade is to be contoured. The blade depths at the second and third calibration points are measured and the needed pitching is determined. The blade is ground based on the calibration points with some adjustments for the skate wearer's physique and skill level.

Abstract: A pair of ski goggles is disclosed which has unitary upper and lower frame members that are each configured to extend substantially between a user's temples, and each include a pair of end regions. The upper and the lower frame members collectively define an aperture into which a lens is removably received, and the goggles further includes a pair of connectors. Each connector couples a respective one of the end regions on the upper frame member to a corresponding one of the end regions on the lower frame member, and the connectors enable the upper and the lower frame members to move between a closed position, in which the lens is securely engaged between the frame members, and an open position, in which the members are displaced from each other relative to the closed position and at least one of the frame members is free from engagement with the lens, thereby enabling the lens to be selectively removed and replaced.

Abstract: A video encoding method and apparatus is shown wherein  image  information  is   represented  as  a plurality of pixels,  the pixels  are  organized into blocks,  pixels  transposition  is  performed  on  image information  at the  boundaries  of  the  blocks,  the blocks  are  transform  coded  and  quantized.    Pixel transposition  involves  transposition  of  alternate pixels  at  the  boundaries  of blocks  with pixels  of neighboring   blocks   found   in  a   pre-determined direction.  The pre-determined direction may be fixed by a system or may be applied on an image by image basis.  In the event that the pre-determined direction is not established by a system, a pixel transposition circuit includes a transposition keyword in the output bit stream which is used by a decoded to determine the direction of pixel transposition.

Title: An apparatus for packaging and shipping biological fluid samples collected in vials
Inventor: SIBLEY BARRY
IPC: B65D81/26
Filed: 1998-03-18
Abstract: An apparatus for packaging and shipping biological fluid samples collected in vials is disclosed. The apparatus includes an absorbent body for supporting a plurality of vials, a packaging container for surrounding and protecting the absorbent body when at least one of the vials is received and supported therein, a shipping container for surrounding and protecting at least one of the packaging containers and a shipping carton for surrounding and protecting the shipping container during shipment from a facility where the biological samples are collected to a facility for analyzing the biological samples. The apparatus in accordance with the invention is particularly useful in clinical drug trials, phases 1 to 4. The apparatus is designed to be used with robotic analyzers which automatically locate and remove the vials from the absorbent body in a predefined order in accordance with an index associated with the top surface of the body. Any biological fluid leaked or spilled from a vial is absorbed by the absorbent body to ensure that potentially infectious biological fluids are not discharged into the environment during shipping or handling. The advantage is a safe, inexpensive system for handling and shipping biological fluid samples collected in vials which permits automated sample analysis without auxiliary handling.
