Patent CA-2558910-A1 (CA)
Inventor: KESTERKE RICHARD III
IPC: B23B31/16
Filed: 2006-09-07
Abstract: A failsafe workholding clamping assembly includes a base, an axially slidable draw bar and collet, and a force amplifier. A driver applies a continuous driving force to the force amplifier. The force amplifier amplifies the driving force and applies a resulting amplified force to the draw bar to bias the draw bar toward its closed position and the collet toward its gripping position. A collet opener mounts to the base and selectively applies an opening force to the draw bar to counteract the driving force and move the collet into its released position. The workholding clamping assembly holds a collet in a predetermined rotational orientation and includes a draw bar rotating mechanism to enable an operator to rotate the draw bar to threadingly engage the draw bar and a rotationally-fixed collet.
Patent CA-2559657-A1 (CA)
Inventor: DONG MING
IPC: C01B25/26
Filed: 2006-09-14
Abstract: The present invention provides a method for the processing of particles of metal phosphates or particles of mixed metal phosphates and in particular lithiated metal phosphates and mixed metal phosphates. The processing occurs, for example using a mechanofusion system as depicted in Figures 1 and 2. In general, the powder materials are placed in a rotary container and are subjected to centrifugal force and securely pressed against the wall of the container. The material then undergoes strong compression and shearing forces when it is trapped between the wall of the container and the inner piece of the rotor with a different curvature (Figure 2).  Particles of the material are brought together with such force that they adhere to one another.  In the mechanofusion system, as indicated in Figure 2, the powder material is delivered through slits on the rotary walls. It is carried up above the rotors by the rotor-mounted circulating blades. Subsequently, the material returns again to the rotors where it is are subjected to strong compression and shearing forces from the inner pieces of the rotor.  This cycle of both three-dimensional circulation and effective compression/shearing of the powder material is repeated at high speeds, thereby forming it into a composite electroactive material (powder).

Abstract: Systems and methods for performing integrity verifications for computer programs to run on computing systems are provided. An integrity check is completed before passing execution control to the next level of an operating system or before allowing a program to run. The integrity check involves the use of a locally stored key to determine if a program has been modified or tampered with prior to execution. If the check shows that the program has not been altered, the program will execute and, during the boot process, allow execution control to be transferred to the next level. If, however, the check confirms that the program has been modified, the computing system does not allow the program to run.

Title: Variable stroke premixed charge compression ignition engine
Inventor: FITZGERALD JOHN W
IPC: F02B71/00
Filed: 2006-02-21
Abstract: A four-cycle, four-cylinder, premlxed charge compression ignition internal combustion reciprocating free piston engine with a variable piston stroke and a compression ratio that varies as needed to provide charge ignition, to offer the potential of higher efficiency, lower emissions, and multi-fuel operation.  The engine does not have a crankshaft, and therefore does not provide direct rotary output. Instead its free pistons (23) oscillate, in a manner similar to a two cycle free piston engine. For many applications, such as piston pumps and compressors, the engine provides an output directly driven by the oscillating pistons. In other applications, such as but not limited to use as a gas generator (2001) for a power turbine (1603), the engine provides an indirect means of producing rotary power. When the engine is used with high-speed power turbines, the power turbine (1603) may be directly coupled to a high-speed alternator (1604) for electrical power output.
