Title: Identification de canaux dans des reseaux de communication
Inventor: JIN DONGXING
IPC: H04J14/02
Filed: 2002-10-04
Abstract: Dans un réseau optique à multiplexage en longueur d'onde, les canaux sont identifiés par au moins deux tonalités de vibration avec lesquelles le canal est modulé, ces tonalités de vibration alternant selon une périodicité prédéterminée de telle sorte qu'à tout instant, chaque canal est modulé par une seule tonalité de vibration. Les tonalités de vibration son générées en permanence à des fréquences précises. La détection, par détection de tonalités de vibration, de canaux à puissances optiques sur une plage dynamique étendue, fait intervenir un processus par transformées de Fourier rapides permettant de détecter en une seule opération les tonalités de vibration pour des canaux à forte puissance. L'établissement de moyennes cohérentes des résultats des transformées s de Fourier rapide dans le temps permet de détecter des tons de vibration pour des canaux à faible puissance par l'intermédiaire de transformées de Fourier rapides multiples.

Title: Apparatus and method for ink jet printing on textiles
Inventor: RYANG HONG-SON
IPC: B41M7/00
Filed: 2002-06-24
Abstract: An apparatus and method for ink jet printing on textiles is disclosed, wherein the steps of pre-treating, ink jet printing, and post-treating the textile takes place at the ink jet printer. A preferred method includes the steps of applying a pre-treat to the textile, evaporating excess water from the pre-treat, ink jet printing a pattern on the pre-treated textile, evaporating water from the ink in the pattern, applying a binder/post-treat to the pattern and curing the binder. The textile printing apparatus prints on an untreated textile by having a first application device to apply a pre-treat aqueous solution to the textile. A first heating element is arranged to evaporate most or all of the water from the pre-treated textile as it passes. An ink jet printer then accepts the pre treated textile and prints the desired pattern on it. A second heating element at the output of the printer evaporates water from the ink in the pattern as the printed textile passes. A second application device applies a binder/post-treat to the printed textile after the ink evaporation. A third heating element dries and cures the binder/post-treat.

Inventor: WILLIAMS HAROLD R
IPC: A61L2/06
Filed: 1996-10-28
Abstract: A sterilization system is comprised of a delivery system configured to receive a plurality of packages containing a solid hydrogen peroxide complex which releases hydrogen peroxide vapor when heated. The delivery system is movable both vertically and rotationally. A sterilization chamber is comprised an interior which is configured to receive articles to be sterilized.

Title: Process for the selective alkylation of -sh groups in proteins and peptides for the study of complex protein mixtures
Inventor: RIGHETTI PIER GIORGIO
IPC: C07K1/28
Filed: 2002-12-02
Abstract: Weakly basic molecules containing a double bond (in particular vinylpyridines) are able to react and selectively alkylate -SH groups in proteins, thus preventing their re-oxidation to disulphur bridges. Contrary to conventional alkylating agents, such as iodoacetamide, such molecules reach 100% alkylation of all -SH residues, even in complex proteins, without reacting with other functional groups. Their use is particularly effective in proteome analysis and more generally for analysing proteins in which the -SH groups should be blocked. Additionally, the use of vinylpyridines partially or totally deuterated, and thus with a mass difference as compared to non-deuterated vinylpyridines, allows studies of induction/repression of protein synthesis.
Patent CA-2469058-A1 (CA)
Inventor: RADUE MARTIN L
IPC: F04B17/04
Filed: 2001-12-03
Abstract: L'invention concerne une pompe alternative comprenant une section d'entraînement et une section de pompe. Ladite section d'entraînement présente un ensemble de bobines alternatives, au niveau desquelles sont appliqués des signaux de commande de la polarité alternante, au cours du fonctionnement. Une structure d'aimants permanents de la section d'entraînement permet de créer un champ de flux magnétique qui interagit avec un champ électromagnétique produit au cours de l'application des signaux de commande sur la bobine. En fonction de la polarité des signaux de commande appliquée à la bobine, cette bobine est entraînée dans au moins un des deux sens du mouvement. Un élément d'entraînement transfère le mouvement de la bobine à un élément de pompe qui décrit un mouvement de va-et-vient avec la bobine pour amener le fluide dans une chambre de la pompe et l'expulser pendant chaque cycle de la pompe. Celle-ci est particulièrement appropriée à des applications de pompage cyclique, telles que l'injection de carburant, et à des systèmes de régulation des émissions pour moteurs à combustion interne.

Patent CA-2472431-A1 (CA)
Title: Four-stroke engine system
Inventor: KAWAMOTO SHIRO
IPC: F02F7/00
Filed: 2004-06-23
Abstract: A four-stroke engine employs engine vibration for lubricating engine components. The engine vibration induces a ripple in a surface portion of the oil in an oil reservoir, which is located within a crankcase of the engine. The oil ripple causes misting of the oil, which lubricates exposed engine components.  Providing a crankcase wall thickness of about 1.5 mm or less can increase the engine vibration. Alternatively, a clearance area located within the crankcase can be decreased to facilitate contact of the oil surface ripple with a counterweight, thereby splashing the oil onto exposed engine components. Vibration of the engine can be further increased by coupling a vibration plate or spring to a portion of the crankcase.
