Patent CA-2690509-A1 (CA)
Inventor: REDDY GANDI RAJULA
IPC: F02D11/02
Filed: 2010-01-19
Abstract: A drive-by-wire non-contact capacitive throttle control apparatus and method of forming the same. A capacitive position sensor is provided, which includes a stationary electrode and a rotatable electrode. The rotatable electrode can be attached to a throttle lever such that the rotatable electrode rotates as the throttle lever rotates.  The capacitance between the rotatable electrode and the stationary electrode varies with the position of the throttle lever. The position of the throttle lever can be measured by measuring the capacitance between the electrodes and a signal can be generated based on the sensed position. The signal can be electrically transmitted to an ECU (Electronic Control Unit) utilizing one or more electrical wires. The signal can be sent in the form of a varying voltage, which in turn controls the throttle of a vehicle.

Abstract: Fluidising transport apparatus comprises a hopper (2), a pressure vessel (4) and a valve element (8) which controls a port (6) between the hopper (2) and the vessel (4). The valve element (8) is retained closed against the port (6) under pressure within the vessel (4). A fluidising nozzle (14) receives transport fluid, such as water from a fluid line (16). Water supplied through the fluid line (16) thus fluidises solids (32) in the vessel (4) and raises the pressure to maintain the valve element (8) in the closed position. The fluidised solids material is then supplied to a transport pipeline (24) from the vessel (4). Solids material loaded into the hopper (2) depress the valve element (8) when pressure within the vessel (4) is relieved, so allowing a fresh charge of the solids material (32) to enter the vessel (4) for a subsequent cycle. The position of the valve element (8) within the vessel (4) is influenced by a float (12) which responds to the water level (34) within the hopper (2).

IPC: G11C17/16
Filed: 2009-02-20
Abstract: At least one MOS parameter of a MOS fuse (200) is characterized to provide at least one MOS parameter reference value. Then, the MOS fuse (200) is programmed by applying a programming signal to the fuse terminals (204, 206) so that programming current flows through the fuse link (202).

Abstract: A compressor for providing pressurized air at a predetermined pressure and at a predetermined volume. The compressor has a motor with a shaft to which an eccentric is attached which moves a crank rod upwardly and downwardly and to which is attached a flexible diaphragm. The reciprocal movement of the diaphragm draws air into a chamber while an inlet flapper valve opens and expels air from the chamber through an outlet flapper valve. The flapper valves are made from spring steel and act in a cantilever movement to open and close the inlet and outlet passageways. O-rings are provided to deaden the sound of the flappers. A  counterweight is attached to the eccentric to provide an opposed force to the force generated by rotation of the eccentric. An air bleeder allowing air movement between the inlet and outlet passageways may be provided to adjust the air pressure emanating from the compressor.
