Patent CA-2408985-A1 (CA)
Inventor: STEELE MICHAEL WAYNE
IPC: F02M25/00
Filed: 2002-10-18
Abstract: A nozzle (7) for a nitrous oxide system for an internal combustion engine contains outlet (9), to produce a high velocity cylindrical stream of nitrous oxide (9') expressed :in a certain direction (29) and another outlet (11), located on the same side of the nozzle, such as a slot, to produce a thin fan shaped mist of fuel (11') expressed in a second direction (31) from another location with the directions being inclined at an acute angle (.alpha.) relative to one another, preferably forty-five degrees.

Title: Self regulating spout
Inventor: ESSEBAGGERS JAN
IPC: B65D83/00
Filed: 2001-05-04
Abstract: The invention related to a "flow control element" with suction spout for carbonated beverage cans. The fluid remains under pressure while access is possible when suction is applied to the spout. The spout is attached to a housing enclosure that holds a spring, a centrally perforated membrane, a valve stem and a valve. This housing enclosure extends into the inside of the container, which extended part functions as a guide for the valve stem and that incorporates the valve seat. The valve stem is attached to the perforated membrane on one side and to the valve on the other side. When suction is applied the membrane moves the valve and opens a flow path, thereby allowing fluid to flow through the valve stem and the perforated membrane to the mouth.  When the suction stops, a spring closes the valve against the gas pressure in the can or container.

Title: Process and system for producing multicomponent spunbonded nonwoven fabrics
Inventor: TAYLOR THOMAS B
IPC: D04H3/14
Filed: 2001-08-02
Abstract: A system and process is provided for producing spunbond nonwoven fabric. Two or more polymeric components are separately melted and are separately directed through a distribution plate configured so that the separate molten polymer components combine at a multiplicity of spinneret orifices to form filaments containing the two or more polymer components. Multicomponent filaments are extruded from the spinneret orifices into a quench chamber where quench air is directed from a first independently controllable blower and into contact with the filaments to cool and solidify the filaments. The filaments and the quench air are directed into and through a filament attenuator and the filaments are pneumatically attenuated and stretched. The filaments are directed from the attenuator into and through a filament depositing unit and are deposited randomly upon a moving continuous air-permeable belt to form a nonwoven web of substantially continuous filaments. Suction air from a second independently controllable blower beneath the air-permeable belt so is drawn through the depositing unit and through the air-permeable belt and web is then directed through a bonder for bonding the filaments to convert the web into a coherent nonwoven fabric.

Patent CA-2419753-A1 (CA)
Title: Depth adjustment mechanism for farm implements
Inventor: MATSALLA TONY M
IPC: A01B63/26
Filed: 2003-02-25
Abstract: An adjustment mechanism for use with farm implements or other equipment utilizes a series of alternating teeth and notches arranged in an arcuate pattern about an axis of adjusting movement on a movable member and a pair of arcuately spaced latching bars on a stationary member of the mechanism. The bars are individually shiftable into and out of engagement with the teeth and notches and are spaced apart such a distance that when either of the bars is in registration with a notch, the other bar is in registration with a tooth. Springs yieldably bias the bars toward the teeth and notches so that the bar aligned with a notch will snap down into the notch while the other bar resides in a standby position abutting the outer end of its tooth. When the seated bar is manually withdrawn from its notch, the movable member becomes unlatched and is free to be indexed one increment in either direction about the adjustment axis, whereupon the bar in the standby position snaps down into a notch brought under that bar, reestablishing a latched condition while the withdrawn bar becomes retained in its standby position by the outer end of its tooth. A double-acting lever having two fulcrum connections with the bars at their outer ends is successively raised and lowered about alternate ones of the fulcrum connections to manipulate the latching bars.

Patent CA-2421173-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SNYDER CHRIS
IPC: H03D7/16
Filed: 2001-06-19
Abstract: This patent describes a method and system which overcomes the LO-leakage problem during modulation and demodulation, common to direct conversion and similar RF transmitters and receivers. This problem is solved using a virtual local oscillator (VLOTM) signal which emulates mixing with a local oscillators (LO) signal. The VLO signal is constructed using complementary mixing signals that suppress mixing power in the bandwidth of the input signal, and within the bandwidth of the output frequency. Specifically, mixing is done in two or more stages, using time-varying mixing signals .phi.1 and .phi.2 which satisfy the following criteria: .phi.1 * .phi.2 having significant power at the frequency of the LO being emulated, one of .phi.1 and .phi.2 having minimal p ower around the frequency of the output signal y(t), and the other of .phi.1 and .phi.2 having minimal power around the centre frequency, fRF, of the input signal x(t).

IPC: A47J43/18
Filed: 2001-11-02
Abstract: A turkey transport (100) includes a two-hand handle (102) to allow more easy lifting of the turkey. In addition, the center of lift of the two-handle is substantially centered over the center of lift of a lifting rod such that the turkey is lifted in a substantially horizontal orientation. The lifting rod has a square cross-section with narrow upper edges exerting relatively high force against the inside of the turkey to provide extra friction. The lifting rod has a wedge-shaped end (118) which places pressure against the turkey from inside and from outside. The lifting rod also includes an up-turned spike end (116) which is driven into the breasbone of the turkey. To lift a roast turkey, the spike of the lifting rod is inserted into the chest cavity of the turkey. The forward end of the two-hand handle is lifted to drive the spike end into the breastbone of the turkey through the abdominal opening of the chest cavity. Lifting the two-hand handle then securely and easily lifts the turkey for transportation.
