Title: Method of providing secure access to computer resources
Inventor: WOOLCOX SCOTT ORLO
IPC: G06F21/31
Filed: 2005-10-28
Abstract: A method of providing varying levels of secure access to computer resources. A    certificate is used to identify a particular data requester and the certificate is authenticated using asymmetrical encryption techniques, such as public-private key pairs. One or more trust authorities may be consulted to ascribe a trust level to the certificate, which is an indication of the veracity of the identity of the data requester.  Individual system users may set differing levels of access to a number of shared system resources for a particular data requester. The authenticated and verified data requester is then provided with the pre-set level of access to the desired shared resource. The level of access to a particular shared system resource therefore depends upon the user the data is being accessed through, the authenticated identity of the data requester, and their ascribed trust level. The shared resource may comprise data and/or an application module that is accessed or executed through a secure symmetric encryption tunnel.

Patent CA-2547748-A1 (CA)
Inventor: STABINS PETER ANDREW
IPC: F03B3/00
Filed: 2006-04-12
Abstract: A reaction turbine system for the generation of hydroelectricity is disclosed. It consists of a Darrieus type turbine with a horizontal axis of rotation. The blades may be straight or helical, and are held equidistant from the central rotating shaft by blade support members. The blades are oriented so that a blade at its rotational apex moves directly opposite to the direction of water flow. The turbine is elevated such that the top portion, where blades travel directly against the direction of water flow, is in the air and above the water level. This design greatly reduces stresses on the system and increases energy output relative to a Darrieus turbine fully immersed in water flow. This design also enables the turbine to self-start.

Title: Trippable idler roller assembly for belt conveyors
Inventor: HARWOOD WILLIAM B
IPC: B65G43/00
Filed: 2006-10-10
Abstract: An idler roller assembly comprises a base frame which includes first and second spaced-apart mounting brackets, a support frame which includes a support tube that comprises a first end which is positioned adjacent the first mounting bracket and a second end which is positioned adjacent the second mounting bracket, and a locking shaft assembly which includes a stationary sleeve which is secured to the first mounting bracket and a rotating sleeve which is rotatably supported by the stationary sleeve and is secured to the first end of the support tube. The stationary sleeve comprises a first contact surface and the rotating sleeve comprises a second contact surface, and the locking shaft assembly further includes a lock spool which comprises a first lock surface which conforms to the first contact surface and a second lock surface which conforms to the second contact surface. In addition, the lock spool is movable between a first position in which the first lock surface is engaged with the first contact surface and the second lock surface is engaged with the second contact surface to thereby prevent the rotating sleeve from rotating relative to the stationary sleeve, and a second position in which the first lock surface is engaged with the first contact surface but second lock surfaces is disengaged from the second contact surface to thereby allow the rotating sleeve to rotate relative to the stationary sleeve. Thus in the first position of the lock spool the support frame is prevented from pivoting relative to the base frame, and in the second position of the lock spool the support frame is allowed to pivot relative the base frame.

Title: Load control unit in communication with a fixed network meter reading system
Inventor: HART DAVID G
IPC: H02J13/00
Filed: 2007-02-15
Abstract: A load control system that communicates with existing automated meter reading communications systems to interrupt and shed loads at a customer location. The system includes a master controller that listens to communications between a utility meter and the reading system. The controller receives tier and/or pricing information and will instruct a load control unit to interrupt certain loads based on the information. In addition, the system may be employed as a load shedding system where a command may be forwarded to the master controller to disconnect loads based on action levels. The command may be sent via a TCP/IP  communications system to a node in the reading system and the forwarded via a radio network to the master controller to reduce latency. Predictive shedding may be performed based on forecast loads.
