Patent CA-2483941-A1 (CA)
Inventor: PING QIU JIAN
IPC: B25B23/00
Filed: 2004-10-04
Abstract: A driver tool having a hollow handle and a head. The head has a body portion and a mouth portion. A plurality of channels formed in body portion each of which is adapted to receive a driver. A selector assembly is mounted within body portion and comprises an exit groove and a stop gate located between said mouth portion and the channels. An exit notch is provided in the stop gate which communicates with the exit groove. Rotation of the selector assembly relative to the handle to move the exit groove and the exit notch past the channels so that when the rotation is stopped when the exit groove and the exit notch are opposite a predetermined channel permits a driver in that channel may move from the channel into the exit groove through the exit notch and thereby freeing a driver in the exit groove to move out of the exit groove through the mouth portion and to protrude out of the handle assembly to an extended position. The driver is held in the extended position and the stop gate prevents the other drivers in the other of said channels from moving out of the channels.

Title: Method for increasing accuracy of measurement of mean polarizaton mode dispersion
Inventor: BRODSKY MIKHAIL
IPC: G01M11/00
Filed: 2004-12-21
Abstract: The present invention provides a method for increasing the accuracy of measurement of mean differential group delay (DGD) from the polarization mode dispersion (PMD) in optical fiber. The method includes a systematic correction to mean-square DGD  measured with any conventional mean to minimize systematic error caused by finite source bandwidth. The method further includes a systematic correction to the measurement of mean DGD and mean square DGD from statistics of the second-order PMD (SOPMD) obtained with frequency domain PMD-measuring apparatus. The probability density function (PDF) of either the vector or scalar SOPMD is applied, depending on which quantity is measured. The systematic correction is made to minimize the systematic error in estimating mean DGD, caused by finite source bandwidth, to achieve a two-fold reduction of the measurement variance equivalent to doubling the source bandwidth.

Inventor: TULADHAR ANIL
IPC: H02J3/00
Filed: 2005-09-30
Abstract: Cycle error correction is performed in an electronic power system to compensate for a difference between an AC grid side frequency and an AC load side frequency. The electronic power system can comprise an electronic power inverter, such as one usable with an uninterruptible power supply.    Cycles of signals indicative of the AC grid power and the AC load power are counted and compared to obtain a cycle error value. If the cycle error value exceeds a first value to indicate that AC load side frequency is too high or too low, then compensation is performed to change the AC load side frequency to be closer to the AC grid side frequency. If the cycle error value fails below a second value to indicate that the AC grid side frequency and AC load side frequency are sufficiently close to one another, then the compensation is deactivated.
