Patent CA-2825788-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BRERETON SIMON FRANCIS
IPC: A61M5/20
Filed: 2012-02-16
Abstract: An Injection device (1) for administering a dose of a liquid medicament(M) to a patient comprises -a syringe (3) containing the dose of the medicament (M) -a hollow injection needle(4) adapted to penetrate the skin of the patient, -a stopper (6) translatably disposed within the syringe (3), -a plunger (9) connectable to the stopper (4) and translatable in at least a proximal direction(P) to displace the stopper (4) in the proximal direction (P) and -a releasable noise component (28) capable of, upon release, generating an audible and/or tactile feedback. The proximal displacement of the stopper (4) causes the dose of the medicament (M) to be expelled through the hollow injection needle (4). The noise component (28) is released when the plunger (9) reaches a position relative to the syringe (3) in which the stopper (4) is located in proximity of a proximal end of the syringe (3). The released noise component (28) impacts on at least one component of the injection device (1) to generate the audible and/or tactile feedback indicating the end of the injection.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un produit d'isolation fibreux présentant une résistance thermique améliorée et un procédé de fabrication dudit produit. Une pluralité de fibres de base (par exemple des fibres de verre) est formée pour créer un produit d'isolation, qui peut comporter un liant ou ne pas être lié. Au moins un agent opacifiant aux rayons infrarouges, tel que la suie, le noir de carbone ou le graphite, est appliqué sur le produit d'isolation fibreux de telle sorte que les fibres de base soient revêtues quasi-uniformément d'agent opacifiant. L'agent opacifiant peut être appliqué, par exemple, à partir d'une suspension fluide, ou en faisant passer la fibre dans une flamme produisant de la suie. Quand l'agent opacifiant est appliqué par l'intermédiaire d'une suspension et quand on souhaite utiliser un liant, il est préférable d'éviter les dispersions de liant capables de déloger l'agent opacifiant. Parmi d'autres applications de liage possibles, on cite l'enchevêtrement des fibres de base avec des fibres de liant, ou d'autres procédés de répartition physiques ou mécaniques.

Title: Modular system for snowshoe binding footbed
Inventor: EMERSON DANIEL T
IPC: A63C13/00
Filed: 2007-01-18
Abstract: A binding for a snowshoe has, in several different embodiments, a pair of straps to draw the binding tight over a user's boot, the two straps reversing direction at side loop points and being secured to a pair of buckles on a floating tongue at the top of the binding, generally over the ball area of the foot. In one form the straps are anchored at toe points on the binding and extend back in a crossing, X configuration. In another form the straps are shorter and do not cross, the forward ends being replaced with toe-cradling strap-like members that extend up and back and come together at a pivot connection with a tongue, in this case a shorter tongue, to which the two buckles are connected. The binding tends to open with release of the straps. In a third form the tongue is a larger, padded X-shaped flexible member under which the boot is slid to engage the binding1. Front elements provide a hinged, springing action that lifts the tongue off the boot, opening the binding, when the two buckles are, released. A modular footbed is also disclosed, capable of receiving a series of different front ends for different bindings.

Title: Methods and systems for selecting target vehicles for occupancy detection
Inventor: BURRY AARON MICHAEL
IPC: G08G1/017
Filed: 2014-05-21
Abstract: Methods and systems for selecting a target vehicle for occupancy detection utilizing vehicle identification information. The vehicle identification information (e.g., license plate information) can be obtained from a vehicle identification unit (e.g., ALPR) to identify a vehicle approaching a high occupancy measurement zone. The vehicle identification information from the vehicle identification unit can be transferred to a vehicle occupancy unit having a flash illuminator unit and an image-capturing unit. The flash illuminator unit and the image-capturing unit are not enabled if the vehicle's occupancy state has already been measured at a prior location based on the vehicle identification information. The vehicle occupancy detection unit and the vehicle identification unit work together in a coordinated fashion to reduce the number of times the flash illuminator unit needs to fire and extends the life of the illuminator unit, thus reducing the cost of maintenance.
