Patent CA-2486850-A1 (CA)
Title: No pre-heat system for a cooking appliance
Inventor: BARRITT WILLIAM D
IPC: F24C15/32
Filed: 2004-11-04
Abstract: A control system for a cooking appliance enables a consumer to perform a complete cooking operation regardless of whether food is placed into an oven after a preheating operation or without initially preheating the oven. When the consumer does not intend to allow the oven to be preheated prior to inserting the food to be cooked therein, the consumer can select a no preheat operation wherein the lack of preheating is automatically compensated for, preferably by causing the oven to perform the cooking operation in two stages. Initially, the oven is operated at full output capacity for a first predetermined period and thereafter operated at various heat outputs during a subsequent plurality of stages until the cooking operation is complete. In this manner the food is completely cooked without the need to add additional time to the overall cooking operation.
Patent CA-2487836-A1 (CA)
Inventor: EVERETT JEREMY RAMSEY
IPC: C12Q1/02
Filed: 2003-06-16
Abstract: A method of generating models with which to characterise selected aspects of the metabolic phenotype of subjects without dosing a test substance to those subjects or with which to predict, without dosing, the post-dose responses o f subjects where those responses are dependent on metabolic phenotype, the method comprising: obtaining pre-dose data relating to a plurality of subjec ts before dosing with a dosing substance; obtaining post-dose data relating to the plurality of subjects after dosing with the dosing substance; and correlating inter-subject variation in the pre-dose data with inter-subject variation in the post-dose data, and generating a pre-to-post-dose predictiv e model on the basis of the observed correlation. The models may be used to determine selected aspects of the metabolic phenotype of a subject or to predict, without dosing, the post-dose responses of subjects. This is achiev ed by analysing data relating to the un-dosed subject in relation to a model describing the correlation of pre- dose and post-dose data relating to a plurality of subjects when dosed with a particular substance which challenge s the biochemical transformation or pathway of interest; and generating, according to the predetermined criteria of the model, a numerical measure or classification describing the metabolic phenotype of the un-dosed subject.</ SDOAB>

Abstract: The present invention provides an insect control coil that disperses an initial burst or quick release of a high concentration of insect active ingredient into the environment to provide a fast acting initial dose together with a sensory cue indicative of the release of the active substance. In order to accomplish this, the insect control coil includes a spiral-shaped body composed of a burnable material and having an insect control active substance as an ingredient thereof, a coating on the spiral-shaped body which contains an auxiliary amount of an insect control active substance which provides an auxiliary burst of active substance when burnt, and at least one of either the body or the coating further including a sensory cue indicative of the release of the reactive substance from the coating. The coating may be formed on the tip end of the body, or alternately, may be formed intermittently along the length of the body of the coil.

Title: Offset hitch
Inventor: JOHNSON CHARLES A
IPC: A01B59/00
Filed: 2004-12-20
Abstract: A heavy gauge agricultural implement hitch is disclosed which is offset such that the implement and the tractor are not directly in line with one another, but allows the tractor to follow the previous crop rows and the implement to be offset of the previous crop rows. This offset of the hitch allows the implement to function with more ease, especially when the implement is a planter, thus making it possible to plant soybeans, for example, more easily in a field with corn stubble.

Inventor: WERKL DIETMAR
IPC: B05D5/04
Filed: 2005-04-22
Abstract: The invention describes processes for producing a film of a hydrophilic polymer on the inner surfaces of a fluidic component in which firstly the inner surfaces of the fluidic component are subjected to a physicochemical treatment, in particular a plasma treatment, subsequently the inner surfaces are brought into contact with a solution of the hydrophilic polymer, afterwards the polymer solution is replaced by a gaseous medium in such a manner that firstly the inner surfaces remain wetted with part of the polymer solution and finally a film of the hydrophilic polymer remains on the inner surfaces of the fluidic component by removing the solvent. The hydrophilic polymer that is used in this case has a surface wettability for aqueous solutions which is higher than the surface wettability of the inner surfaces of the fluidic component itself. In addition the invention describes fluidic components and systems as well as analytical systems on the inner surfaces of which a film of a hydrophilic polymer is at least partly present.

Title: Process and apparatus for high-speed filling of composite cigarette filters
Inventor: VELUZ SERGE
IPC: A24D3/00
Filed: 2002-12-19
Abstract: A process of manufacturing composite filter stock (14)rovided that includes several steps. In a first step, a paper carrier strip (50) feeds along a conveyor (30). Along one edge of the carrier strip, the paper is folded back against itself. Fibrous filter segments (22) are then deposited on the carrying strip in spaced apart intervals. The spacing defines cavities (16) between adjacent filter segments. The carrier strip with the deposited filter segments is fed along a path (110) of travel into an elongated guide (26) or support chamber that substantially surrounds the circumference of the paper-enveloped segments (22) and which leaves a narrow fill opening (62)opposite an elongated particulate filling opening (112) that is elongated in the direction of motion of the carrying strip. Suction or a vacuum is concurrently applied adjacent the narrow opening (62), the suction increasing a downward momentum of a gravity feed stream of particulate matter (20) and concurrently vacuums away loose particulate matter. The cavities are concurrently filled with the particulate matter over a length (L) corresponding to a predetermined path of travel of the carrying strip. The folded over edge (104) is then unfolded and adhered to seal the fill opening. The filter stock is then cut to length, the cutting being registered to create discrete composite filter segments.
