Patent CA-2391228-C (CA)
Title: Automated transaction machine printer
Inventor: LEWIS KIM R
IPC: B41J15/04
Filed: 2000-11-10
Granted: 2005-05-17
Abstract: An automated transaction machine (10) includes a thermal printing apparatus for printing account statements for a user. A paper drive (36) moves a paper web (44) from a paper roll (42) through a printer (40). After indicia is printed on the paper, the paper is cut by a cutter (37) into sheets and delivered to a user by a presenter drive (30). After paper cutting, the paper is moved a short distance in a direction opposed to the direction that the pape r normally moves during printing. A paper control device (49) operates to maintain a relatively constant resistance force to movement of the web in the printing direction after the paper has been retracted. The paper control device limits application of resistance forces to below a threshold as well as sudden fluctuation of resistance forces on the paper web which may otherwise cause the paper to sl ip relative to the drive and cause distortion of printed indicia or damage to the web.

Abstract: An exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system for an engine with a variable geometry turbocharge (18) incorporates a master rotary electric actuator (REA)(50) with a microprocessor controller (53) receiving condition signals (46, 48a-e) from sensors (48) associated with the turbocharger and the engine control unit (ECU)(54) and positioning the turbine inlet nozzle (44) geometry of the turbocharger in response to a predetermined matrix of the condition signals. A slave REA (52) is connected through an internal processing unit (58) to the controller to position an EGR valve (34). The processing unit provides an actual position signal to the controller which responds with a desired position signal based on the predetermined condition signal matrix. The processing unit engages the slave REA to position the EGR valve.

Title: Lottery ticket bar code
Inventor: FINNERTY FRED
IPC: G06V30/224
Filed: 2002-10-30
Granted: 2006-12-05
Abstract: Security can be provide for lottery tickets having data printed thereon in a bar code or other machine readable media by covering only a portion of the bar code with a scratch-off material. Removing the scratch-off material, or in some cases only a portion of the scratch-off material, can permit machine validation of the lottery tickets. For bar codes having a specified level of redundancy, it is desirable to cover at least enough of the bar code so as to prevent the machine reading of ticket validation data encoded in the bar code.  Also, a lottery ticket can include a bar code printed on the ticket having both inventory and validation data along with a bar code printed on the front of the ticket including the validation data. All or part of the bar code printed on the front of the ticket can be covered by a scratch-off material.

Abstract: A powertrain controller of a vehicle provides fuel injection pulses based on gasoline operation. The pulse widths of the fuel injection pulses are modified with reference to air temperature, engine speed, and exhaust gas oxygen (EGO) content to control fuel injectors for an alternative fuel such as natural gas. The EGO content, based on alternative fuel operation, is detected and compared to a desired air-fuel ratio or desired fuel trims to provide error information that is used to adjust the modification of the pulse widths. In response to the error information, a neural network (as an example) dynamically adjust the pulse widths of the alternative fuel injection based on the weights of measured, detected engine speed, EGO, universal exhaust gas oxygen, or air temperatures. The engine operating on alternative fuel is provided with the proper mixture of alternative fuel and air to respond to various engine loads and meet emission standards.

Abstract: A cable release anchor (12) having an improved breakaway post design with a cable release feature. The cable release anchor includes upper (32) and lower (30) anchor portions that are readily separable from one another during an impact. A bearing plate is retained within the end of each of the upper and lower anchor portions, and each bearing plate (46, 48) has a bearing surface that is oriented at an acute angle with the vertical when installed in the ground. Each of these bearing plates contains a U-shaped cutout (54, 72). When the upper and lower anchor portions are joined, the cutouts form an opening through which an end of the tension cable is disposed. An impact to the upper anchor portion readily releases the upper post section from the lower post section and frees the cable. The cable release anchor provides positive anchorage to react the tensile loads on a rail member to redirect a vehicle impacting along the length of the terminal or guardrail.

Title: Fixed-film anaerobic digestion of flushed manure
Inventor: WILKIE ANN C
IPC: C02F11/04
Filed: 2002-10-23
Granted: 2009-05-12
Abstract: An apparatus (10) for the fixed-film anaerobic digestion of flushed livestock manure includes an enclosed digester tank (20) (fixed or flexible roof), internal media (34) for biofilm development, a biogas collection and flare system, various pumps, and hydraulic control systems. The preferred media has substantially vertically-oriented, uninterrupted channels to promote enhanced bacterial attachment and biofilm development. The immobilization of microbial biomass within the reactor as a biofilm allows effective treatment of the wastewater at ambient and higher temperatures, as well as reasonable hydraulic retention times. The composition and concentration of bacterial groups in the biofilm developed on the media in the fixed-film digester result in a significantly enhanced anaerobic degradation process. This novel fixed-film digester design expands the potential application of anaerobic digestion to dilute livestock waste with significant levels of suspended solids. This holistic manure treatment system not only stabilizes the wastewater but also produces energy (biogas ), controls odors, reduces pathogens, minimizes environmental impact from waste emissions, and maximizes fertilizer and water recovery for reuse.
