Abstract: The present invention provides an optical system comprises a scanning spectrometer incorporating an electronic light modulator and digital signal processing means. The spectrometer technique combined with optical signal encoding provides the ability to obtain spectral signatures and identify optical patterns of biological tissue. One example of biological tissue scanning includes techniques such as identification of optical patterns of normal and abnormal tissues in addition to the delineation of these spectral patterns between the abnormal and normal tissue. Due to an enhanced signal-t o- noise ratio provided by the optical system according to the present inventio n, this optical system can detect patterns in biological tissue that may be mor e subtle than those patterns that would be possible to obtain with currently available optical systems.

Title: Fishing rod strike sensor
Inventor: JOHNSON BRYAN L
IPC: A01K87/00
Filed: 2005-03-01
Abstract: The fishing rod strike sensor provides an audible and visual indication of a fish striking a hook or lure suspended from a fishing rod by a fishing line. A flexible sensor, such as a flexible resistor, extends along the fishing rod, flexing along with the fishing rod. As the sensor flexes, an electrical characteristic of the sensor, such as its resistance, changes according to the degree of flex. An electronic circuit activates an alarm when the electrical characteristic varies beyond a threshold. The electrical circuit is adjustable to set the alarm threshold. A "window" threshold is employed whereby an alarm can be sounded both when a fish pulls on the line when taking the hook, and when a fish takes the hook in a manner that decreases the pull on the line.

Patent CA-2501524-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MAYER YARON
IPC: G06F11/00
Filed: 2005-03-29
Abstract: Although MS Windows (in its various versions) is at present the most popular OS (Operating System) in personal computers, after years of consecutive improvements there are still various issues which need to be improved, which include for example issues of efficiency, comfort, and/or reliability. The present invention tries to solve the above problems in new ways that include considerable improvements over the prior art. Preferably the system allows for example a "Reset" function, which means that preferably an Image of the state of the OS (including all loaded software) is saved immediately after a successful boot on the disk or other non-volatile memory and is preferably automatically updated when new drivers and/or software that change the state after a boot are added, so that if the system gets stuck it can be instantly restarted as if it has been rebooted. Other features include for example solving the problem that the focus can be grabbed while the user is typing something, allowing the user to easily define or increase or decrease the priority of various processes or open windows, a powerful undo feature that can include preferably even any changes to the hard disk, improved undo features in word processing, improved file comparison features, being able for example to track changes retroactively, improved backup features, and many additional improvements. The application covers also improvements that are related for example to Word processing (since for example in Microsoft Windows, Word behaves like an integral part of the system) and things that are related to the user's Internet surfing experience (This is important since for example in Microsoft Windows, Internet Explorer is practically an integral part of the OS). The invention deals also with some preferable improvements in the performance of the hard disk.

Title: Process for hydrodynamic inclusion of a multitude of three-dimensional products of finite dimensions by water jets
Inventor: WATZL ALFRED
IPC: D04H1/495
Filed: 2003-11-21
Abstract: Finite goods are continuously packed between two non-wovens by means of hydrodynamic needling and are fully sealed. When used, said wovens should no t nap and should not become linked to the goods during packing. When packed, t he volume of the goods should, wherever possible, remain unchanged. In order to achieve said aims, the covering non-wovens are prefixed by means of hydrodynamic needling. Particularly good results are achieved if perforated non-wovens are used to cover the finite products, the number of said perforations being approximately 5-20 perforations per inch, and when said n on- wovens are joined to each other by means of water needling.

Title: Estimating combustor flame temperature based on frequency of combustor dynamics transverse mode
Inventor: GLEESON EAMON P
IPC: F02C9/00
Filed: 2005-05-19
Abstract: A method of determining the temperature inside a combustion liner without making a direct measurement of the actual temperature. The technique is based on a measurement of the frequency of one of the transverse acoustic modes occurring inside the combustion chamber. The frequency is determined from the transverse geometric dimensions of the combustion chamber and the speed of sound in the gas inside the combustion chamber. The speed of sound in the gas is known from thermodynamics to be a function of gas temperature and gas properties. Thus, from a measurement of the resonant frequency and knowing the combustor dimensions and gas properties, the temperature can be determined with accuracy.

Inventor: LUNDBY STEIN A
IPC: H04J13/00
Filed: 2004-02-18
Abstract: Systems and methods for controlling the power level for a mobile station during periods when no data is being transmitted by the mobile station. In one embodiment, data is intermittently transmitted from a mobile station to a base station on a reverse-link traffic channel. When data is being transmitted on the traffic channel, the transmitted data is used by the base station to perform power control operations (e.g., incrementing or decrementing the mobile station's power level, based upon comparison of a received SNR to a target SNR). When no data is being transmitted on the traffic channel, a "zero-rate indicator" is transmitted on the rate indicator channel. The zero-rate indicator is used by the base station to perform power control. Power control based on the zero-rate indicator may use velocity profiles, reliability metrics or other techniques to control adjustment of the power level.

Abstract: Quick joint which is comprised by a laminar body folded 90°, having "L" section, the height of which is consistent with the height of the side wing corresponding to the profile of the hanger section to be joined; along the upper edge of said body a small arched flange is formed, while the angular 90° fold is effected at the opposite edge to the same side towards which said flange extends; said quick joint laminar body being provided, along with the openings existing at the base, with corresponding projecting embedded shoulders acting as snap fit anchoring resilient means for operational engagement, fitting into said openings. The height of the side face of the quick joint laminar body is slightly larger than that corresponding to the wing of the involved hanger, while the width of the quick joint laminar body is, at most, half of the width of the hangers being joined. To insure stability of the assembly, the quick joint is placed at both wings of the hanger.      The mentioned shoulders may be formed by two side inclined planes which end at a planar surface, they may also have a substantially rectangular arched form. It is to be noted that the flange and the shoulders projecting from the quick joint base are formed, for example, by means of embedding or stamping of the metal laminar body, wherein said shoulders project from the face opposite to the hanger base.      They could be located at both folded surfaces of the body, or only at the base thereof which coincides with the plane of the hanger base.

Inventor: POTNIS SHAILESH VIJAY
IPC: H01M8/06
Filed: 2006-03-02
Abstract: Temperature differences and temperature gradients across Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFCs) are minimized through the used of a manifold heat exchanger (50, 70), which reduces thermal stress and increase cell life. Air passes from a periphery of a cell (54, 74) toward the cell (54, 74) center, where it absorbs cell (54, 74) heat. The air then proceeds to the manifold heat exchanger (50, 70) located adjacent the cell (54, 74), where the air indirectly absorbs further heat. Additionally, fuel is directed countercurrent to air, which keeps hot spots away from cell stack (48) seals and directs hot air toward intense reforming areas on the cell (54, 74) to mitigate quenching effects of internal reforming.
