Title: Height comparator
Inventor: MOON ROBERT
IPC: B24B49/00
Filed: 2006-04-04
Abstract: A device is provided for measuring the centre of a grinding wheel for use in setting the height of a skate blade. The device has a base, a support extending from the base, a slider block slidable along the neck between the base and a head block secured to an upper end of the neck, a dial indicator supported by the head block for measuring the position of the slider block along the neck, a lower roller, and an upper roller. The lower roller and upper roller are rotatably attached to the slider block and radially aligned with each other such that a portion of each roller protrudes from the slider block, wherein a clockwise tangential force imparted on the upper roller causes the slider block to slide along the neck, and the dial indicator to record the movement of the slider block, which enables the height of an object to be set on the dial indicator with respect to a rest position of the slider block.

Title: System and method for privilege management and revocation
Inventor: ADAMS NEIL P
IPC: H04L69/40
Filed: 2006-05-24
Abstract: The management of privileges associated with certain applications that are accessible by users of electronic equipment, such as networked computers, mobile wireless communications devices. In particular, systems and methods for managing privileges associated with particular applications and for revoking these privileges in a timely and robust manner When policies or application control changes, the system detects which privileges have been revoked for which applications, by comparing the old set of privileges with the new set of privileges. For each revoked privilege, the system determines if the application has ever accessed that privilege in the past, and, if so, the device is reset. To ensure that privileges that may be passed between applications are not overlooked, the device is arranged to perform a reset if any revoked privilege accessible by the device is one that may be passed between applications.

Patent CA-2550911-A1 (CA)
Title: Distributor for domestic water filters
Inventor: CHERNOFF LARRY J
IPC: B01D24/40
Filed: 2006-06-23
Abstract: The Distributor for Domestic Water Filters is a device for directing, controlling and distributing the flow of water or of a fluid through the media bed of a water filter. The distributor has arms that are strong and flexible and extend outwards from the perimeter of the hub allowing them to be folded upwards so that they can be introduced through the small opening in the top of the tank.  The arms then return to their position before being folded and because they are strong, as well as being flexible, they don't collapse as they are capable of withstanding the pressure of the media bed and water or fluid placed on top of them. The advantage of this invention is that the arms extend outwards from the hub, so that they nearly touch the inner walls of the tank just above the bottom of the tank, allowing water or fluid passing through a series of small perforations on each of the arms to pass through into the media bed directing the flow of water or a fluid through the entire media bed allowing for a thorough cleaning of the bed. The benefits are that the filter can remain in service a longer period, the use of less water saves in the use of a valuable resource and this also helps in prevention of the overflowing of septic tanks or septic fields when the discharge leads to these. Other benefits are a saving in power. The use of less power leads to less strain on pumps, pressure tanks, and pressure fittings. The filter operates more efficiently leading to less frequent changing of the media bed. It is less likely that impurities will enter the service water that may cause damage to plumbing fixtures and appliances.

Title: Method and apparatus for aligning rotor in stator of a rod driven well pump
Inventor: PROCTOR BRUCE E
IPC: E21B43/12
Filed: 2005-05-26
Abstract: A progressing cavity rod-driven well pump (11) utilizes a tag shoulder (21) above a helical passage (17) of the stator (15). The pump stator is located at the lower end of a string of tubing (25). The tag shoulder is more restrictive than a passage through the tubing. A pump rotor (27) is secured to a string of rods and has a stop (29) located above the rotor. The rotor is lowered on the rods until the stop lands on the tag shoulder. Then the operator lifts the rods and the rotor to accommodate for expected stretch during operation. By removing the rods and rotor, monitoring tools can be lowered through the tag shoulder and stator.
