Patent CA-2627568-A1 (CA)
Inventor: DOWHIE CHRIS J
IPC: A42B1/08
Filed: 2006-10-30
Abstract: A crescent-shaped splash guard, encircling the part of the head to be washed, protects the eyes, ears and nose from soap and other solutions. It is placed centrally on the forehead above the eyes. Two opposing side portions extend from the center to above and behind the ears. The side portions form upper and lower edges providing a seal against the head. The side portions form troughs about the periphery, directing water and hair washing solutions to the side and back, and preventing solutions from dripping into the eyes, nose and ears.  A handgrip in the splash guard's center provides a grip for a "hairwasher."  Holding the handgrip prevents the splash guard from shifting. The "hairwasher"  applies pressure to the splash guard via the handgrip to ensure that all hair solutions are guided through the troughs and discharged away from the eyes, nose and ears.

Title: Belt tensioner
Inventor: FISCHER MICHAEL
IPC: F16H7/12
Filed: 2006-09-20
Abstract: The aim of the invention is to improve a belt tensioner for a belt drive of an internal combustion engine, having a central bearing device which serves to define a pivot axis for the belt tensioning arm, and having a bearing sleeve which is connected to the tensioning arm, wherein the bearing device extends through the bearing sleeve and the bearing sleeve is mounted, in a friction-damping manner by means of a plain bearing arrangement, so as to be pivotable about the bearing device, with said improvement being such that a good function of the belt tensioner is maintained despite a simplification of the design and a reduction in differently designed parts. Said problem is solved by means of a generic belt tensioner for a belt drive of an internal combustion engine, in which the plain bearing arrangement has at least two opposite sliding faces which have the same material.

Patent CA-2646916-A1 (CA)
Title: Air release pneumatic load binder
Inventor: WELCH LEON W
IPC: F16G11/00
Filed: 2008-12-08
Abstract: A mechanically actuated, air release, binding device adapted for use on trucks or trailers, commonly known as a load binder, comprises a horizontally aligned frame, truck air brake cylinder, lever arm and attachment connection. The air brake includes an internal piston and exposed drive shaft which are spring driven outwards from the cylinder. Application of compressed air to the cylinder drives the piston and drive shaft inwards, rotating the lever arm and providing a fully stack condition in binding straps or chains attached to the binder. Release of all or part of the cyllinder compressed air draws in upon the lever arm rotating it to a full or floating binding condition automatically. A ratchet and pawl secured to the lever arm mechanically locks the binder and adjusts when the binder becomes slack due to load shift or transportation conditions. The pawl is fully released to permit the binder to provide full load strap slack for attachment or removal.

Title: Tamper resistant assembly for an electrical receptacle
Inventor: VALENTIN WILLIAM R
IPC: H01R13/453
Filed: 2009-01-23
Abstract: A tamper resistant assembly provides tamper resistance to an electrical receptacle. A groove has a locking portion connected to a first portion in a base member of the tamper resistant assembly. A first shutter member having first and second resilient arms is slidably connected to the base member. First and second protrusions extend rearwardly from the first and second resilient arms, respectively, and are slidably received in the groove in the base member.

Abstract: Microparticles or granules intended for use in the zootechnical field, constituted by a core which contains a substance having a pharmacological action, a food supplement or a diagnostic medium, intimately mixed or adsorbed with a hydrated silicate of magnesium, aluminum, calcium and sodium (smectite, montmorillonite or bentonite); the core is coated with a double fatty layer constituted by two fats or waxes, of which the one having the highest melting point constitutes the inner layer while the one having the lowest melting point is arranged so as to form the outer layer. The ability to control release effectively and accordingly reduce rumen degradation of active substances which contain a cationic or an anionic chemical function, such as for example choline chloride, lysine hydrochloride, calcium chloride, citric acid, ascorbic acid or nicotinic acid is determined by the synergistic action of two phenomena: an interaction between the active substance and the other component of the core, and the barrier effect of the double fat layer. Taken individually, the two phenomena are unable to apply effective control over the release of the active substance.
