Patent CA-2673646-A1 (CA)
Inventor: GRONDA ANN
IPC: A61K9/00
Filed: 2007-10-11
Abstract: Compositions and methods use the gel-forming properties of microporous particles to create useful formulations combining two free-flowing materials to produce a hydrogel mass. The free-flowing materials preferably provide dry microporous particles (preferably as an aerosol) that may contain additional agents, and a second composition of a fluid material which is an aqueous solution of one or more high molecular weight polymers capable of forming a hydrogel upon further concentration and/or reaction. The hydrogels can be preferably formed on a surface by spraying the two compositions as fluids together in the proper ratio onto the surface.

Abstract: This invention involves an intensive system including a solar photovoltaic mobile power module. The system is set in a shell serving as a whole recreation vehicle (RV), which contains some auto body parts such as a chassis, wheels, a traction frame etc.. The front-end face of the RV entirely installed with BIPV solar power glass curtain wall plates is 66-degree angle with the chassis. In addition, the front and rear parts of the RV are equipped with solar panels. The middle part of the RV has windows, while guard-rails and a maintenance-ladder are also available in the rear. In the RV, there are facilities such as a bookshelf , a double bed, a bathtub, a toilet seat, a refrigerator, sofas, a desk, a vegetables pool, a console, a wardrobe, a door and a platform. This invention has combined the strengths of solar photovoltaic power module and RV. First, the invention itself is a unit module of a solar photovoltaic power station, which means that some of these modules can be assembled as a big size of power plants. Second, the invention is also an independent RV for leisure travel.

IPC: G06Q10/00
Filed: 2010-07-06
Abstract: Manual, semi-automated or automated image-based electronic manifests of locate operations. Multiple image layers may be selectively enabled or disabled for display to facilitate comparative viewing of different base images and/or categories of information overlaid on the base image(s) relating to the locate operation. Accuracy indicators and/or calibration factors may be employed to ensure geographic integrity and appropriate registration of displayed information. In one example, revision layers are employed so that "raw" data, modified data, and/or annotated images may be maintained and locked to prevent unauthorized modifications. Limited access files also may be employed to prevent unauthorized edits to or use of manifests. If a digital base image is not available or of poor quality, base images may be sketched manually (e.g., on a displayed grid) with a drawing tool, and/or edge-detection and other image processing algorithms may be employed to improve feature recognition and/or remove undesirable features. Safeguards are employed to ensure that manifests are created at or near the work site, and information in the manifests may be analyzed to assess labor/material costs.
