Patent CA-2554200-A1 (CA)
Title: Compression-induced crystallization of crystallizable polymers
Inventor: WEINHOLD STEPHEN
IPC: B29C71/00
Filed: 2005-01-27
Abstract: A crystallization process comprising passing a mass of amorphous crystallizäble polymer having a first thickness (ft) through the nip gap of counter-rotating rolls having a nip gap (ng)at an ft:ng ratio of at least 1.2 to crystallize the polymer to a degree of crystallinity of at least 15% and thereby produce a semi-crystalline polymer, and particulating the semi-crystalline polymer. Strain crystallizing a sheet or fiber by using a drafting step to elongate the sheet or fiber is no longer needed. A high degree of crystallinity is imparted almost instantaneously, even in slow to crystallize copolyesters. The process allows one to extrude a thinner crystallizable sheet, substantially retains the dimensiona) width of the sheet as it is passed through the compression rolls, and produces substantially optically clear sheet and pellets. Suitable polymers include polyethylene terephthalate or naphthalate homopolymers or copolymers.

Patent CA-2554903-A1 (CA)
Title: Medication management system
Inventor: CASSIDY DAVID
IPC: G16H70/40
Filed: 2004-10-07
Abstract: The invention provides a medication management system (MMS) which includes a medication management unit (MMU) associated with one or more medical devices and methods of utilizing the MMS. The medical device receives delivery information only from the MMU.  The medication order is performed only after delivery data validation. The MMU also determines drug-drug incompatibility.  The MMU can modulate (start, stop, sequence and dynamically adjust) medication order performance. The MMU can evaluate the performance of medical devices and caregivers based medical device feedback. The MMU can also transit instructions for dynamically adjusting the screen brightness of a pump screen display.                                                           Thus, hospital users of the system are able to more readily automatically identify devices and caregivers that are behaving abnormally and take appropriate action to improve device operation, patient safety and caregiver productivity.

Patent CA-2558536-A1 (CA)
Inventor: CAMILLERI STEVEN PETER
IPC: G05D13/62
Filed: 2005-03-04
Abstract: The present invention provides a method for controlling the output power of a permanent magnet electric motor (102) using a control means (106). The control means (106) includes a means (134) for measuring motor speed (134) and motor phase current (134), and a means for controlling motor phase current (110) to a desired level. A known relationship between motor phase current and motor torque is then employed by a torque controller so that motor shaft torque can be controlled. A power limiting means (128) then limits the output mechanical power of the motor by dividing a limit value of power by the motor speed to produce a maximum allowable torque setting for that speed.

Patent CA-2564087-A1 (CA)
Title: Method and structure for preventing piling uplift
Inventor: COLBERT ROBERT
IPC: E02D31/14
Filed: 2005-05-05
Abstract: A piling anti-lift system utilizes a heat trace cable secured around a piling and extending above and below the water level of the surrounding water. An annular space is formed between the piling anti-lift system. The heated piling anti-lift system prevents the water in the annular space from freezing and thereby prevents the piling from being subject to uplifting or heaving that results from the rising tide of surrounding frozen waters. In the event of extreme water temperatures and the freezing of the water in the formed annular space, the piling anti-lift system keeps the piling independent of the frozen surrounding water. In this situation, the piling anti-lift system will break free from the frozen water in the annular area and rise with the rising tide waters, thus continuing to keep the piling independent from the rising frozen tide waters.

Inventor: MALCOLM PETER BRYAN
IPC: G09C1/00
Filed: 2001-11-08
Abstract: An information management system is described comprising one or more workstations running applications which allow a user of the workstation to connect to a network, such as the Internet. Each application has an analyser, which monitors transmission data that the application is about to transmit to the network or has just received from the network, and which determines an appropriate action to take regarding that data. The analyser may consult policy data containing a supervisor-defined policy to govern the workstation in order to determine what action to take. Such actions may be extracting data from the transmission data, such as passwords and usernames, digital certificates or eCommerce transaction details for storage and record keeping; ensuring that the transmission data is transmitted at an encryption strength appropriate to the contents of the transmission data; determining whether a check needs to be made as to whether a digital certificate received in transmission is valid; determining whether a transaction about to be made by a user of one of the workstations needs third party approval before it is made; and controlling the transmission of messages, such as e-mails according to a policy.

IPC: B61C15/10
Filed: 2004-07-06
Abstract: The invention relates to an automatic, variable-flow sanding device for rail motor vehicles. One of the recurring problems associated with rail transport is low wheel/rail adhesion which causes wheelslip under certain running conditions. The invention relates to a device which can be used to discharge a sufficient, controlled quantity of sand onto the rails and in front of the drive wheels in order to prevent wheelslip, while the rails continue to be shunted by the axles. The device consists of a mechanically-welded assembly comprising a built-in pneumatic flow amplifier (15) which is submerged in the sand contained in the sand box (3) and which is supplied with variable-pressure compressed air by means of a proportional electrovalve (146). Moreover, said proportional electrovalve is in turn controlled by a variable current that is generated by an electronic computer (150) containing a programmed, adjustable diagram which is adapted according to the characteristics of the motor vehicles comprising same.

Inventor: LEASON JACK M
IPC: G05B19/29
Filed: 2005-06-15
Abstract: Kinematic control of an electronic positioner and its associated actuator is effected through a control algorithm that delivers energy to the actuator based on observed motion produced by a previous delivery of energy. The algorithm achieves control based on a desired or user-specified resolution.  Electronic braking between energy delivery intervals improves the speed at which the desired position is achieved. Temperature of the force producing mechanism is determined, as by monitoring energy consumed, and used to control how power is delivered to the actuator.

IPC: G01N25/72
Filed: 2006-01-12
Abstract: Disclosed is a method for determining the degree to which parts, especially parts that are exposed to loads (11) which change over time, are damaged.  According to the invention, the part (10) is actively excited (20). A sector of the surface of the excited part (10) is recorded by means of a thermographic apparatus (30) which records also small cracks, microcracks (15), and microplastic zones having a length or size of less than 2 mm on the surface of the part (10). The thermographic apparatus (30) feeds the recorded images with the small cracks, microcracks (15), and microplastic zones to an evaluation unit (40). The evaluation unit (40) systematically evaluates the represented distribution of the small cracks, microcracks (15), and microplastic zones according to a predefined process. The degree to which the part (10) has been damaged is determined from the evaluated data of the distribution of the small cracks, microcracks (15), and microplastic zones.
