Patent CA-2602306-A1 (CA)
Title: Constant flow valve
Inventor: NEWTON JOHN R
IPC: F16K17/04
Filed: 2006-02-21
Abstract: A regulating valve includes an outer housing (10) comprised of a cap (12) joined to a base (14). The housing is internally subdivided by a barrier wall (22) into a head section (24) and a base section (26), the latter being further subdivided by a modulating assembly (32) into a fluid chamber (23') and a spring chamber (23"). An inlet (28) and a 90~ outlet (31) in the cap communicate with the fluid chamber. Fluid at a variable pressure is admitted into the fluid chamber via the inlet, with the modulating assembly serving to maintain the fluid exiting the fluid chamber via the outlet at a substantially constant pressure.

Patent CA-2618964-A1 (CA)
Title: Polyurethanes cured with amines and their preparation
Inventor: BARNES JAMES-MICHAEL
IPC: C08G18/72
Filed: 2008-01-25
Abstract: Polyurethane prepolymers are described which are prepared from 2,4'-diiso-cyanate diphenylmethane (2,4'-MDI), a polyol component and an aliphatic diisocyanate.  These prepolymers can be cured with aliphatic, cylcoaliphatic and/or aromatic amines to form a cured urethane elastomer. In comparison to cured urethane elastomers based on monomeric 2,4'-MDI, these prepolymers provide elastomers with extended pour life, i.e.  they exhibit a slower rate of viscosity buildup after curative and prepolymer are mixed which results in a reduced propensity to crack during the curing process and gives the opportunity to cast larger parts. In comparison to polyurea/urethanes prepared from cured TDI-prepolymers and which optionally include H12-MDI, the prepolymers of the invention have better health and safety aspects.

Abstract: An improved handheld electronic device and associated method enable spell checking in a reduced keyboard and disambiguation environment. The improved spell checking routine converts a misspelled word into a canonical version thereof and receives from a dictionary proposed letter for possible acceptance by the spell checking routine. The spell checking routine advantageously maintains states of various spell check algorithms in order to ensure that no letter is accepted that would require an edit distance of more than one from the misspelled word. The improved spell checking routine advantageously reduces unnecessary processor operation by reducing the extent to which certain portions of the dictionary are searched multiple times during a spell checking operation.

Abstract: The present invention enables improved and more efficient recharging of electric cars, preferably by using improved batteries and/or improved recharger arrangements in electric cars and/or in infrastructures that are used for recharging electric cars, and/or other improvements in the infrastructures, while preferably also protecting the electric grid from overload. This is preferably done for example by accumulating energy in service stations for example in special preferably hi gh speed capacitors, such as for example one or more super capacitors, and/or for example one or more molten salt accumulators and/or for example in the new M1 batteries developed by A123 Systems or similar batteries or other fast batteries which can be recharged for example to 80% capacity within 5 minutes, or for example the similar fast new batteries by Toshiba or for example the BYD Iron Phosphate batterie s or for example the Altair Nanotechnologies Nanosafe battery, so that preferably these accumulators can be used for example to recharge cars with M1 batteries or similar fast-recharge batteries, since otherwise the service station would need to have a huge capacity power supply to enable such fast recharges. Other covered variations include for example efficient methods of recharging the batteriespreferably serially, either in the service station (based on a model of fast replacement of batteries at the service station), preferably after automatically sorting the batteries into more or less homogenous groups, or in the car itself for example by automatically rerouti ng the batteries or some of them or elements in them during recharge so that they a re recharged more serially than during the normal operation of the car, thus enabling recharge with less rechargers and/or at higher voltages and with less curren t and less problems of heat during recharge. Other described improvements include for example a system wherein when recharging the electric cars, for example rechargers and/or for example one or more central computers for example in the electric al grid company and/or in the service provider take into account also car-specific parameters in order to optimize the recharging priorities, for example based on the state of their batteries and/or for example also based on additional parameters and/or heuristics and/or statistics and/or for example automatic repeated identification of cars based for example on a unique preferably digital ID number, so that for example the system can take into account also various regular and/or historical car- specific parameters and/or patterns and/orstatistics, such as for example typical arrival and departure times, typical distances traveled, specific needs base d on week days, etc. Other features include for example a system and method for alerti ng users when a parking and/or recharging post becomes available and/or reserving the m in advance. Other features include for example various improvements in the electric cars themselves.
