Granted: 2002-01-08
Abstract: On décrit un procédé permettant de transmettre des caractères de frappe représentant les touches d'un clavier. La probabilité d'utilisation d'au moins un des caractères de frappe peut être déterminée au moyen du comptage du nombre d'occurrences des caractères de frappe pendant une durée prédéterminée ou pour une oeuvre littéraire. La probabilité d'utilisation peut être calculée d'une autre manière, il s'agit alors de calculer en temps réel le nombre d'occurrences d'au moins un des caractères de frappe et d'ajuster la probabilité d'utilisation en fonction des caractères de frappe. Sur la base de la probabilité d'utilisation calculée des caractères de frappe, ces derniers sont mappés sous forme de formats de transmission. On décrit également un système et un clavier qui permettent de mapper les caractères de frappe sous forme de formats de transmission en fonction de la probabilité d'utilisation desdits caractères de frappe. On décrit d'autres procédés permettant d'utiliser des données de détection d'erreurs dans les formats de transmission. Un exemple de détection d'erreurs peut comprendre l'ajout de bits de parité ou la configuration des données dans les formats de transmission pour qu'ils indiquent les erreurs. On décrit d'autres procédés permettant d'utiliser des adresses uniques dans les formats de transmission pour différencier les caractères de frappe provenant d'un clavier des caractères de frappe provenant d'un autre clavier.

Title: Light fixture management system
Inventor: JEFFERY R CLARK
IPC: G06Q50/00
Filed: 2000-04-28
Granted: 2009-02-17
Abstract: A light fixture management system which tracks the location, history and operating characteristics of light fixtures in a structure or a group of structures and surrounding premises. Each light fixture is assigned indicia, for example a bar code, which is stored in a database in association with details of the light fixture. An observer charged with identifying light fixtures in need of repair carries a portable scanner. The observer scans the bar code associated with any light fixture in need of repair and optionally enters into the bar code scanner any observable problem. The scanned information is downloaded into a computer, which may be programmed to establish a repair route for fixtures identified as being in need of repair, based on the locations of the light fixtures and types of problems identified by the observer. Reports can be generated as required with any other desired information. The invention considerably simplifies the task of tracking light fixtures and substantially increases the efficiency and effectiveness of repair personnel. The master database may also contain the location of the circuit breaker which controls power to each fixture, to enable repair personnel to quickly locate and deactivate the circuit if necessary for a particular type of repair.

Granted: 2004-11-09
Abstract: La chasse aux grands gibiers sauvages (orignal, caribou, cerf, ours) est un sport noble et qui de plus permet à l'adepte de ce sport de déguster une viande de haute qualité. Pour que cette viande garde son bon goût, il est impératif de prendre des précautions particulières dans les heures qui suivent l'abattage puisque cette période e st déterminante pour sa conservation. Il est particulièrement important d'éviscérer rapidement l'animal, le couper en quartiers et les suspendre afin que le sang s'égoutte et que la viande refroidisse. Il est aussi essentiel qu'elle soit protégée contre toute contamination par les insectes. Comme ces animaux sont abattus dans toutes sortes de conditions de terrain, il devient parfois difficile pour le ou les chasseurs de transporter rapidement la carcasse à un endroit ou la viande peut être réfrigérée. Ils doivent donc, soit la laisser sur les lieux d'abattage ou la transporter au camp de chasse. Il s'écoule souvent entre 2 et 5 jours avant qu'elle soit définitivement dépecée par un boucher. L'invention qui est revendiquée se compose de deux éléments, soit un support composé d'une barre horizontale et de pattes télescopiques qui permettent de suspend re les parties de gibier. Le tout leur permet de refroidir rapidement et de s'égoutter de leur sang. L'autre partiecomprend un filet qui entoure la viande, permet une circ ulation d'air et empêche l'intrusion d'insectes. Ces deux éléments sont démontables et légers. Ils peuvent donc être transportés facilement sur les lieux de chasse et assemblés rapidement. Ils peuvent auss i demeurer au camp de base. Le filet peut être aussi utilisé individuellement sans le support de métal. Dans les endroits difficilement accessibles, on peut utiliser un arbre comme support horizonta l.

Abstract: The wall joint of the present invention is configured to reduce or eliminate protrusions into the interior of the trailer or container, but does not require coining or stamping of the edges of consecutive sidewall panels. According to some embodiments of the present invention, the wall joint includes two consecutive sidewall panels, each bent to form a main plateau, a spliced plateau and a jogged portion serving as a transition therebetween, with the thickness of the sidewall panel most preferably remaining substantially constant throughout. When two consecutive sidewall panels are positioned next to each other, the spliced plateaus of the two consecutive sidewall panels abut each other and lie in a first plane, while the main plateaus of the two panels preferably lie in another parallel plane. Thus, a region recessed from the main plateaus and surrounding the seam between the two panels is created.

Abstract: A fluid-to-fluid heat exchanger for use where two fluid streams may be of indeterminate composition, temperature, and flow rate, and, where the two fluid streams may flow at different rates and at different times. Such conditions are found, for example, in the flow patterns of a building's hotwater, cold feed water for a water heater, and drainwater. As defined for heat recovery from drainwater, the present invention comprises a first, central, straight-through heat exchanger tube for cooling flowing drainwater, a second heat exchanger to heat cold water encircling and spaced from the first, and a non-pressurized reservoir between first and second heat exchangers permanently filled with water in thermal contact with first and second heat exchangers. Submerged in the reservoir water there is at least one insulated convection chamber, of small volume, enclosing first heat exchanger with a convection opening uppermost. Opening allows upward convection and therefore heat transfer when drainwater heats convection chamber water making it lighter. Convection and heat transfer ceases when drainwater cools convection chamber water making it heavier, blanketing drainwater heat exchanger in a small volume of cold water. This one-way heat transfer prevents heat loss from remaining reservoir water to cold drainwater. With convection chambers inverted to have convection opening bottommost, the device serves to make coldwater, for drinking, as cold as possible by transferring unwanted heat to colder drainwater. Used in series, heat recovery and fresh water cooling can both be accomplished. Units for horizontal and vertical installation are disclosed.
