Patent CA-2573180-A1 (CA)
Inventor: KOSCHITZKY HENRY
IPC: E04D1/14
Filed: 2007-01-05
Abstract: A laminated shingle resistant to fastener-head pull-through. The shingle includes an upper layer having a tab portion and a headlap portion, and a shim extending below the tab portion and part of the headlap portion.  The part of the shim behind the tab portion forms, with the headlap portion, a dual thickness nailing zone. Since roofers sometimes drive fasteners such as roofing nails through the shingle behind the nailing zone, resulting in only a single layer available to resist fastener-head pull-through, a reinforcing tape which can have reinforcing strands is adhered to the bottom of the headlap portion immediately behind the rear edge of the shim. This effectively increases the size of the nailing zone without incurring the bulk, weight and cost of increasing the size of the shim.

Title: Rate of return stops and capital return transactions
Inventor: TURNER CYRIL J
IPC: G06Q40/00
Filed: 2005-11-17
Abstract: A method and system for managing and selling investments via electronic means.  An investor can establish sell order criteria based upon a preset desired rate of return. The broker thereby monitors the investment and automatically sells it on behalf of the investor once the prescribed sell order criteria are met.  The investor can effectively lock in a rate of return prior to its sale without monitoring. Also provided is a method and system for returning to the investor a portion of the initial investment. Once the investment reaches a predetermined value, three simultaneous events occur. A portion or all the initial invested capital is returned to the investor for purposes of reinvestment. The investment instrument is transferred to the broker as collateral, given that its value appreciated relative to the initial purchase amount. Yet the investor still owns the "rights" to the capital appreciation for the life of the investment.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a pneumatic operated hammer for rock drilling, the hammer comprising a cylindrical casing, a back head mounted at an upper portion of the casing, a check valve for opening/closing a compressed air passageway in the casing, a guide for supporting the check valve, a piston adapted to ascend and descend with compressed air in the casing, and a button bit for performing a drilling work through the striking of the piston. The piston is extended to a certain length to conform to the work condition of the pneumatic hammer to thereby prevent a water back-flow phenomenon in which underground water, etc., is introduced into the drilling equipment during the drilling work, compressed air passageways and variable compressed air chambers are formed between the piston and the casing so that when the piston ascends by the compressed air, it abruptly ascends at a load-free state, and the piston has axial portions with a reference diameter and different outer diameters so that it is possible to manufacture a hammer bit having a plurality of variable compressed air chambers formed between the casing the piston to fit for the work capacity.  The piston ascended in a load-free state strikes the button bit with its rapid and strong striking force produced by the compressed air supplied from the variable chambers while abruptly descending to thereby perform the drilling work.

Inventor: JANMEJAY RAJNIKANT VYAS
IPC: C07C231/12
Filed: 2005-11-30
Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the preparation of a quaternary ammonium hydroxide, in particular denatonium hydroxide, and the use thereof for the preparation of a quaternary ammo nium salt, in particular of denatonium benzoate or a denatonium fatty acid derivative. Due to its extremely bitter taste, this latter compound is applied in the art as an aversive agent, biocide, antifoulant and flavorant. It is usually prepared from a quaternary ammonium halide in an organic environment, which after isolation and purification is converted to a hygroscopic and unstable hydroxide intermediate, which in turn is immediately converted to the salt of interest in the solvent in which it is prepared. It is now found that these isolation steps can be avoided by performing the reaction at aqueous conditions. This is more straightforwardly and does not require costly precaut ions to avoid contact while handling. Moreover, the process of the invention allows to produce the quaternary ammonium salt from a lignocaine compound in a one-pot synthesis involving mostly water.

Abstract: A lytic viras specific for a target strain of a microorganism and substantially free of undesirable genes maybe utilized in processes including control of populations of microorganisms. The virus may include a host-range mutant, or "h-mutant." A 1 method for generating virus includes growing virus-resistant variants of a target strain of a microorganism in the presence of viruses that are specific for the target strain. Only h-mutant viruses will proliferate. Wild-type virus-resistant and virus-resistant variants of a microorganism are also disclosed, as are methods generating such variants.  Methods for controlling target strain microorganisms include introducing virus into a treatment site where control of a population of a target strain microorganism is desired or introducing virus-resistant variants of a microorganism into treatment sites where the presence of the microorganism is desired.
