Patent CA-2220674-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SHANG ELLEN S
IPC: C12N1/21
Filed: 1996-05-17
Abstract: Cette invention concerne de nouvelles lipoprotéines membranaires leptospirales, Lip1 et LipL2, associées à des souches pathogènes de Leptospira. LipL1 et LipL2 sont respectivement des lipoprotéines d'environ 35 kDa et d'environ 41 kDa. On décrit également le procédé de purification de ces protéines à partir de Leptospira, leurs séquences nucléotidiques et d'acides aminés, le clonage des gènes codant les protéines et leurs protéines de recombinaison, des procédés de production d'anticorps contre ces protéines et les anticorps résultants. On utilise ces protéines, leurs fragments immunogènes et les anticorps dirigés contre ces protéines pour induire une réponse immune contre la Leptospira pathogène et pour produire une cible de diagnostic contre la leptospirose.
Patent CA-2221538-A1 (CA)
Title: Tiltable seat mount insert assembly
Inventor: WEST JAMES O
IPC: B60N2/39
Filed: 1998-02-03
Abstract: An adjustable device to support a seat on a machine or vehicle that is laterally pivotal about an axis parallel to the longitudinal axis of the machine to permit the seat to accommodate uneven terrain. At the will of the operator, this device can be adjusted to a horizontal position, thereby providing comfort and safety when operating a machine on uneven terrain. The device is to provide an improved seat mounting wherein the seat swings from a common point and movement thereof is controlled by an electromechanical linear actuator, activated by a double throw-double pole switch, (voltage determined by equipment manufacturer), located within easy access of operator. Another important object resides in providing a way to secure seat in a fixed horizontal to seat mounting in the event of malfunction or power failure.  Spare clevis pins, provided with hair pin clips, could be inserted in pre-drilled holes which will secure seat and movable framework to base assembly parallel to each other.

Patent CA-2227068-A1 (CA)
Title: Soil compactor with stabilising wheel system
Inventor: BERRANGE AUBREY RALPH
IPC: E01C19/26
Filed: 1996-07-17
Abstract: The invention concerns a self-propelled impact compaction machine that includes a chassis (20) with a prime mover thereon. The chassis (20) carries ground engaging wheels (21) at least some of which are driven by the prime mover. Compaction of soil is achieved by one or more impact compactor masses (24) which have out-of round shapes so as to apply periodic impact blows to the soil surface when rolled over that surface.    The mass or masses (24) are connected resiliently to the chassis (20) and define a compaction track width measured from one lateral extremity of the mass or masses (24) to the opposite lateral extremity of the mass or masses. The ground engaging (21) wheels of the chassis define a maximum wheel track width which is not substantially different in magnitude to the compaction track width, with the desirable result that the chassis (20) enjoys substantial roll axis stability.

Patent CA-2230523-A1 (CA)
Inventor: KHVOSTOV VITOLD A
IPC: G07D7/04
Filed: 1998-02-25
Abstract: The present invention relates to an induction head for sensing a magnetic strip or other magnetically permeable security structures. The induction head includes an exciting coil associated with an electrically conductive concentrator, which produces a primary field and induces a responsive secondary field in the concentrator. The concentrator has an endwall and sidewalls defining a central cavity. The endwall has a narrow measuring gap dividing the endwall into two opposed sections. The sidewalls are also interrupted adjacent the measuring gap to cause a concentrated current of the secondary field to pass along the gap. This concentrated current can be monitored for a change in induction due to the presence of an elongate magnetic strip or other magnetically permeable security structure which is moved past the measuring gap.

Title: Apparatus and accompanying methods for automatically modifying a financial portfolio through dynamic re-weighting based on a non-constant function of current capitalization weights
Inventor: FERNHOLZ ERHARD ROBERT
IPC: G06Q40/00
Filed: 1996-12-13
Abstract: Apparatus and methods for automatically modifying a financial portfolio having a pre-defined universe of securities, such as, e.g., an index fund, that tracks a given capitalization weighted index, through dynamic re-weighting of a position held in each such security. Specifically, in a computer system (50, 60), a target weight is accorded to each such security, relative to others in the portfolio, in proportion to a non-constant function of current capitalization weights of the securities in the index. Once these target weights are determined, then, in response to both the target weight of each such security and an actual weight, as a proportion of the portfolio, in which that security is currently held, a trade will be generated by the system in order to conform, within a predefined band, the actual weight to the target weight so as to rebalance the holdings in the portfolio. The system can selectively operate in either one of two modes: a dynamic rebalancing mode for calculating new target weights and issuing appropriate trades, or a cash investment mode for issuing one or more trade(s) to consume excess cash then held in the portfolio.

Title: Panneaux moules avec reseaux de cellules ouvertes moulees de facon solidaire
Inventor: JESSOP COLIN S
IPC: B32B27/02
Filed: 1996-11-21
Abstract: Panneaux à revêtement travaillant (20) comportant des réseaux de cellules ouvertes intérieures, moulés dans des matériaux tels que fibres, et procédés et appareils permettant leur fabrication. On utilise un filtre poreux (10, 14) sur lequel se trouvent une pluralité de blocs d'élastomère (12) espacés. Des fibres dispersées dans un fluide sont introduites dans l'appareil, ainsi que sur les blocs et autour. La pression exercé sur les panneaux chasse le fluide, qui traverse le filtre (10, 14), ce qui solidifie les fibres et forme un panneau (20). Les blocs (12) sont conçus et fabriqués de telle façon qu'ils solidifient la nappe de fibres situé sous les blocs et comprimé par la pression (24), de sorte que le panneau fini comprend un rebord moulé de façon solidaire (24). La hauteur, la forme et/ou l'espacement des blocs selon l'invention assurent de façon avantageuse le démoulage et une grande résistance à la compression après un usage répété. Les blocs assurent une grande régularité et une qualité améliorée dans la formation de rebords sur les panneaux.
