Patent CA-2273958-A1 (CA)
Inventor: TURNER JOHN ARTHUR
IPC: B01D53/86
Filed: 1997-01-15
Abstract: An effluent gas containing organic components including an aliphatic carboxylic acid and methyl bromide, gases includings nitrogen, oxygen, carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide, and water, particularly when derived from the production of an aromatic carboxylic acid such as terephthalic acid, is processed to eliminate substantially all of its aliphatic carboxylic acid content and is then subjected to high temperature combustion, optionally in the presence of an oxidation catalyst and/or a combustion assistant, to effect complete conversion of its methyl bromide content to HBr and/or Br2. The resulting gas stream is passed to an energy conversion device such as a gas turbine and is then scrubbed to remove HBr and/or Br2.

Inventor: HODER MATHIAS
IPC: H04Q7/36
Filed: 1997-12-02
Abstract: A repeater for radio signals is preferably designed for mobile use in digital cellular radio networks. The radio signals received in the down-link and/or up-link of the repeater are demodulated, and the thus obtained digital data flows are then remodulated in conformity with the prevailing norms, amplified and retransmitted. An intelligent control unit monitors the signalling traffic in the radio network and automatically tunes the frequency channels transmitted by the repeater with the channels used in the neighbouring radio cell, thus enabling a hand-over of the radio connection to a new radio cell.

Patent CA-2298952-A1 (CA)
Title: Casing scraper
Inventor: CLUBB MATTHEW
IPC: B08B9/04
Filed: 2000-02-18
Abstract: A casing scraper for cleaning the internal wall of a tube 26 such as a well casing has at least three, rigidly connected, axially and angularly spaced scraper bodies 12, 14, 16 each with a scraping surface 13, 15, 17. The radial dimension of the scraper at each scraping surface is slightly greater than the internal radius of the tube which it will scrape. When the scraper is fully inserted in the tube bore, the scraping surfaces are deflected inwardly and the axial connection 20, 22 between the bodies is accordingly elastically deformed. Th energy stored through this elastic deformation produces a radially outwardly acting force which presses the scraping surfaces 13, 15, 17 against the wall of the tube 26 The eccentric arrangement of the scraping surfaces, and the axial spacing between the surfaces causes the parts of the scraper connecting the scraping surfaces to be placed in bending when the scraper is in place within the tube. The bending of the intermediate parts between the scraping surfaces produces a stress which urges the scraping surfaces into contact with the tube internal surface.

Title: Array antenna transmitter with a high transmission gain proportional to the number of antenna elements
Inventor: MARUTA YASUSHI
IPC: H01Q21/20
Filed: 2000-03-03
Abstract: An array antenna is composed of an antenna section, adaptive transmission sections 3 -1 to 3-M, and a transmission antenna weight-producing section 4. The antenna section has antenna elements 2 -11, to 2-MN arranged linearly on each of sides or sectors of M in a polygon. The adaptive transmission sections form a directional pattern having a gain in the direction of a desired signal for each sector and send a desired signal.      The transmission antenna weight-producing section produces transmission antenna weights of M for each sector. A directional pattern having a high transmission gain roughly proportional to the number of antenna elements near a direction vertical to a straight line can be formed.

Title: Synchronization to a base station and code acquisition within a spread spectrum communications system
Inventor: JAMAL KARIM
IPC: H04W72/04
Filed: 1998-08-28
Abstract: Each transmission frame within a spread spectrum communications system relating to synchronization code transmission is divided into a plurality of slots. Each of the slots includes a primary (pilot) code ~  p and a secondary (combined) code ~ s/1ci that includes information identifying or indicative of both a frame timing and a scrambling code for synchronization. This information concerning frame timing and scrambling code may be encoded in the combined code ~ s/1ci itself, as well as in the modulation values of the sequences of plural combined codes within a frame. Alternatively, the information is encoded in the sequence of plural combined codes ~ s/1ci transmitted in each frame, as well as in the modulated values of the sequences of plural combined codes within a frame. As yet another alternative, the information is encoded in the timing of the combined code ~ s/1ci transmission within each slot of the frame relative to its associated primary code ~ p.

Patent CA-2309276-A1 (CA)
Title: Window and door opening and closing mechanism
Inventor: HARKINS PETER WILLIAM
IPC: E05F11/04
Filed: 1998-11-26
Abstract: A window and door opening and closing mechanism is disclosed which is particularly well suited for use in casement and awning window fittings. The opening/closing mechanism has a hinge arrangement with two linked arms (14, 22) pivoting from a runner which may be attached to the window frame. One or both of the pivoting arms is mounted to the runner on a slider (16) which is movable along the runner in relation to the pivot mounting of the other arm.  The mechanism is operable by way of a cable or cord (26) which has portions wound around a spool (24) which is rotatable by the user. Winding the spool in one direction applies a tension to one portion of the cord or cable to apply a force between the pivot mountings of the arms and draw them together on the runner to open the window by pivoting the arms outwardly from the window frame. Winding the spool in the other direction applies a tension to another portion of the cord or cable coupled to one of the arms to draw them back toward the runner and close the window. When tension is first applied to the opening cable portion, initial limited movement of a wedge member (17) can be used to initiate angular movement of the arms whilst the respective pivot mountings thereof are substantially aligned along the runner.
