Patent CA-2510480-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MILLARD DAVE
IPC: A01K29/00
Filed: 2005-06-30
Abstract: The present invention pertains to a dog-waste removal product. This particular dog-waste removal product is cylindrical in design, with a handle for easy carrying and utilizes a standard plastic bag and nylon elastic in its operation. Presently, dog owners utilize other methods to pick up after their dog, including the "hand-in-a-bag" method that requires the dog owner to place their hand in a bag, and quickly invert the bag, "trapping" the dog waste inside the bag. The cylinder serves as the "framework" for the plastic grocery bag, and the braided nylon elastic, is part of the functional process, "snapping" closed on the bag, trapping the dog-waste inside the bag (up in the cylinder). The dog owner inverts the cylinder, and removes the bag from the unit.

Patent CA-2518354-A1 (CA)
Title: Welded connections
Inventor: TEH LIP
IPC: B23K9/00
Filed: 2004-04-08
Abstract: A method for welding an end of a polygonal hollow section (PHS) to a member comprises the step of forming a weld across a surface of the PHS. The weld extends continuously from a connection weld connecting the PHS and the member to a location remote from the connection weld. The surface of the PHS is typically one or more flanges of the PHS, and the PHS is typically an RHS or SHS, such that the surface can be part of just one flange. A method for increasing the rotation capacity in a welded moment connection between a PHS  and a member is also defined. The method comprises the step of forming a weld between the PHS and the member in a manner such that strain in corner(s) of the PHS, located at an end of the PHS that is weld connected to the member, is redistributed to an adjacent flange of the PHS. Alternatively the method may comprise the step of forming a weld between the PHS and the member in a manner that minimises the extent to which a heat effected zone through a flange of the PHS lies in a fracture zone adjacent to an internal end of the weld.

Title: Filtration system and seal assembly
Inventor: PAHL BRIAN W
IPC: B01D33/056
Filed: 2005-12-01
Abstract: A filtration system includes a filter medium that has two side edges. The filter medium is moveable in a longitudinal direction, and at least a segment of the filter medium is used to filter a fluid.

Abstract: A method of delivering electronic mail messages upon requests and managing public-secret key pairs of public key cryptography in an electronic message system. A sending party sends an intend-to-deliver associated with an electronic mail message to an intended receiving party. The intended receiving party responds with a request-for-mail-content to request for the electronic mail message if the intended receiving party determines to do so. The sending party will not deliver the electronic mail message to the intended receiving party if the intended receiving party does not send the request-for-mail-content. A cost computer is assigned with a unique name that is registered with authoritative organizations and can be used for establishing a connection to the host computer. The host computer provides the public keys of its account holders to the public. The initial public key of an account holder is certified by the host computer using an account password. The account holder may regenerate a public-secret key pair as often as needed. The new public key is certified by the host computer using the old public key of the account holds and becomes effective for providing to the public.

Title: Hydrocarbon recovery from impermeable oil shales
Inventor: KAMINSKY ROBERT D
IPC: E21B43/26
Filed: 2004-07-30
Abstract: An economic method for in situ maturing and production of oil shale or other deep-lying, impermeable resources containing immobile hydrocarbons. Vertical fractures are created using horizontal or vertical wells. The same or other wells are used to inject pressurized fluids heated to less than approximately 370~ C, and to return the cooled fluid for reheating and recycling. The heat transferred to the oil shale gradually matures the kerogen to oil and gas as the temperature in the shale is brought up, and also promotes permeability within the shale in the form of small fractures sufficient to allow the shale to flow into the well fractures where the product is collected commingled with the heating fluid and separated out before the heating fluid is recycled.
Patent CA-2545088-A1 (CA)
Title: Slide clamp
Inventor: BOYNE-AITKEN DAVID E
IPC: A61M39/28
Filed: 2004-11-19
Abstract: A slide clamp includes a slot formed in a plate though which a fluid tube is mounted. The tube may be moved to a flow section of the slot or to an occluding; section of the slot. Interconnecting the flow and occluding sections is a pinch zone in which the slot is narrower than the occluding section. Because of this narrow slot, the pinch zone resists movement of the tube from either the occluding or the flow sections into another section. The pinch zone includes a pair of curved beams that are formed as a result of apertures formed in the plate at locations laterally outward from the slot of the pinch zone. As a tube is forced from the occluding section to the flow section the curved beams flex outwardly permitting the tube to pass. However, if enough force is not applied to the tube, it will not overcome the curved beams and they will stop movement of the tube. After the tube has passed, the curved beams resiliently return to their rest position once again providing a stop. The beams are symmetrically shaped and will permit movement of the tube in either direction. The apertures also provide identification markers for the slide clamp.
