Patent CA-2260946-A1 (CA)
Inventor: NAGEL THOMAS O
IPC: A47F5/08
Filed: 1997-07-18
Abstract: Cette invention se rapporte à un crochet de présentation de marchandise (12) possédant une structure de support pour un porte-étiquette pivotant (30). Un bras de montage de l'étiquette (17) est disposé au dessus d'un bras de présentation de la marchandise (13) et se termine au dessus de ce dernier. Une traverse intégrale (24), que l'on forme en pliant l'extrémité du fil métallique (17) du bras de montage de l'étiquette, constitue un organe de fixation sur pivot destiné à un dispositif support en plastique (30). Cet agencement, qui présente des caractéristiques perfectionnées, permet également d'effectuer des économies de fabrication souhaitables. Selon une réalisation, on plie le fil métallique deux fois - une fois pour former une section intermédiaire intégrale (154) et une fois pour former la traverse (124). Selon une troisième réalisation, on plie ledit fil métallique une troisième fois de façon à constituer une autre section intégrale (256), formant un angle vers l'arrière en direction du bras de montage (17) de l'étiquette formant une partie terminale triangulaire. La traverse (124) peut comporter une partie faisant saillie (146) à travers le porte-étiquette (30) permettant de retenir et de centrer le porte-étiquette (30).

Title: A large packet switch router
Inventor: BODNAR BOHDAN LEW
IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 1999-06-08
Abstract: A large router for routing datagrams. The large router comprises a plurality of router slices, each of which receives switches and transmits datagrams. Each router slice has a routing memory for routing the packets.      If a packet is received whose destination address is not known to the receiving packet slice, the packet slice broadcasts a request for routing information for that datagram to the other packet slices of the large router and routes the packet in accordance with the received responses. Groups of slices are interconnected by a time slot interchange (TSI) unit, and groups of TSIs are interconnected by a time multiplexed switch. The router can consist of more than one switch the switches being interconnected by high speed data links. Advantageously, the router, though composed of small slices, acts as if it were a single large high capacity entity.

Inventor: SHIMADA SHINJI
IPC: B29C43/24
Filed: 1998-10-30
Abstract: A thin-walled laminated synthetic resin body for a liquid container according to the invention comprises first and second thin-walled synthetic resin layers (10, 20), each having a curved surface portion (11, 21) and a projection (12, 22) extending outwardly from a predetermined region at an edge of the curved surface portion (11, 21). The first and second layers (10, 20) are laminated to each other with the curved surface portions (11, 21) bulging out in the same direction, are integrated with each other at the edges (13, 23) of the curved surface portions (11, 21) and projections (12, 22), and are separable from each other at regions exclusive of the edges (13, 23).  When a liquid is charged, the curved surface portion (21) of one of the first and second layers (20) is separated from the curved surface portion (11) of the other layer (10) and reversed. By this, the curved surface portions bulge out in the opposite directions to define an inner space between the curved surface portions (11, 21) for containing a liquid. The laminated body has a high freedom degree of design of the container shape, can be readily formed into desired three-dimensional shape depending upon various applications, and can be manufactured simply and at low cost with conventional production system.

Patent CA-2282195-A1 (CA)
Title: Encoding apparatus and method using different quantization matrices for encoding/decoding stages
Inventor: MIHARA KANJI
IPC: H04N19/625
Filed: 1999-09-15
Abstract: An encoding apparatus and method prevents image deterioration generated by repeatedly performing encoding and decoding by using a quantization matrix for quantization which is different from a quantization matrix for inverse quantization. In the encoding apparatus, a matrix selector selects a first quantization matrix in accordance with the complexity of an encoded picture pattern, and supplies a quantizer with information on the selected first quantization matrix. A matrix unit rewrites, by information on a second quantization matrix, the information described in an encoded stream output from a variable length code unit so that a quantization matrix to be used for inverse quantization is a second quantization matrix different from the first quantization matrix.

Inventor: HEBERT RICHARD P
IPC: B03D1/14
Filed: 1998-03-17
Abstract: A mixture of air and paper stock (36) made from recycled paper from which the ink particles have been chemically released is injected into a cylindrical processing vessel (22). Added surfactants create a foam (40) from the air as it rises through the stock (36) and cause the ink particles to adhere to the air bubbles, resulting in a foam containing a concentrated fraction of the ink particles with some included fibres. The foam rises to the top (43) of the vessel (22), and carries with it ink particles. Additional air injection ports (53) can be used to increase the amount of foam generated and the amount of ink removed. Flow of stock (36) and foam (42) from the vessel (22) can be controlled by adjusting valves (70) on the stock (34) and foam outlets (44, 56). Flotation sensors (60) allow the foam head to be maintained at the stock level by controlling the rate at which foam (42) is withdrawn through the foam outlets (44, 56).

IPC: E04B1/64
Filed: 1999-10-29
Abstract: An expandable waterproof covering system used to protect sub surface areas of a building where the sub surface areas meet at an angle. The covering material is a sheet of expandable waterproof material such as a reinforced dual polycrepe material. Approximately in the centre of the covering sheet is a pleated are with a series of folds on each side of the centre. The centre of the sheet is fit over the joining centerline of the two sub surfaces areas to be covered. If desired, a section of the folds may be restricted in their expansion by stitching the adjacent folds together. With this construction the lower folds may fan out to expend to cover more of the surface areas to be protected than the sections that those fold section which are restricted. This find particular applicability to covering the outside corners of building before the final exterior veneer layer, such as brick or stone, is applied over the protective covering.

Abstract: A nozzle assembly (11) is externally threaded (25) for threaded engagement within an internally threaded (27) receptacle (14) formed in the drill bit (10). The nozzle assembly (11) includes a nozzle body (15) which is angularly indexable within a threaded sleeve structure (21, 22) to permit directional flow passage (16) to extend through the nozzle body (15) to be selectively oriented relative to the bit (10) when the nozzle assembly (11) is fully seated within the threaded (27) receptacle (14). Seating of the nozzle assembly (11) within the receptacle (14) anchors the nozzle body (15) against rotational and axial movement. The nozzle body (15) and the sleeve (21, 22) mechanically interlock to permit the nozzle body (15) to be positioned at selected different angular positions within the sleeve (21, 22) before seating the sleeve structure (21, 22) in the receptacle (14). The flow passage exit end (18) is surrounded by a drive area (32) that extends axially from the nozzle body (15). A drive tool engages the drive area (32) to rotate the nozzle assembly (11) into or out of the threaded (27) receptacle (14).
