Patent CA-2566838-A1 (CA)
Inventor: ATKINSON LOUIS D
IPC: A01K1/10
Filed: 2005-03-24
Abstract: The present invention pertains to a plant watering system that is particularly suited for a plant container with a reservoir of water below the plant. The watering system uses a pilot controlled sequence valve to maintain the water level of the reservoir. The sequence valve includes a diaphragm that is pneumatically coupled to a pilot port fixed to the reservoir and submersed in the water. When the water level in the reservoir reaches a lower limit, the reduced pressure on a diaphragm causes it to open a pathway for water to flow from a water supply to the reservoir. When the water level reaches an upper limit, the increased pressure on the diaphragm causes it to close that pathway and shut off the water flow. The water supply can be an elevated tank or the pressurized water system. A pressure regulator can be used to lower the water pressure at the intake of the sequence valve. A nozzle controls the flow rate of water into the reservoir.

Title: Systems and methods for communicating with multiple devices
Inventor: KAWASAKI KENICHI
IPC: H04L12/28
Filed: 2005-02-04
Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for communicating with multiple devices. In one embodiment, a plurality of wireless devices in close proximity are able to transmit data at a high rate using a secure connection. While in one embodiment this data is transmitted using a high speed, directional signal at a 60 GHz frequency. In a further embodiment, data is transmitted at a 60 GHz frequency between a personal computing device and a plurality of consumer electronic devices that are in relative close proximity to one another. The directional nature of this high frequency signal permits a large number of devices in a close proximity to communicate without interfering with each other. Moreover, the directional nature of such a high frequency signal provides added communications security since the receiver will typically be in the line of sight of the transmitter.

Title: Dispositif de ceinture pour transport de charge
Inventor: LEPAGE JEREMIE
IPC: A45F5/02
Filed: 2007-01-19
Abstract: La façon la plus fréquente de se blesser le dos est la répétition du port de lourdes charges, et ce d'autant que la technique de portage est mauvaise. On propose donc ici un dispositif s'installant sur une ceinture porté à la taille par l'utilisateur pour lui permettre de répartir le poids d'une charge qu'il transporte sur ses hanches plutôt que de soutenir l e poids par ses bras et risquer de se blesser au dos. Le dispositif de ceinture est constitu é d'un rebord plat recouvert d'une surface adhérente sur laquelle s'appuie la charge à transporter. L'ensemble du dispositif est conçu ergonomiquement pour épouser l'abdomen de l'utilisateur tout en stabilisant la charge transportée. Le dispositif peut s'installer sur tout type de ceinture en glissant simplement la ceinture dans l'ouverture prévue à cet effet.
