Patent CA-2241306-A1 (CA)
Inventor: CHINKS MATTIE
IPC: B65D5/355
Filed: 1998-07-28
Abstract: An adjustable box formed from a blank is disclosed. The box has two rectangular sides, a front panel and a back panel. The front panel and back panel are each provided with two pairs of vertical fold lines on one side thereof, the front pair of vertical fold lines being on the opposite side from the back pair of vertical fold lines. Openable and closeable flaps are provided to close the box at the top. An automatic set-up construction is provided to close the box at the bottom. As a result, the box can be folded along an inner fold line of the front and rear pair of vertical fold lines so that the bottom of the box has a first width. Alternatively, the box can be folded along an outer fold line of the front and rear pair of vertical fold lines so that the bottom of the box has a second width which is smaller than the first width. The flaps and the automatic set-up construction to close the box must be adjustable so that once the box is closed at the top and at the bottom, and the box is folded along the inner fold line or the outer fold line, they remain closed.
Patent CA-2241463-A1 (CA)
Inventor: LEE CHARLES A
IPC: G01C19/5705
Filed: 1998-06-22
Abstract: A dithered Coriolis acceleration sensor system has a proof mass that is free of feedback in the accelerometer servo loop at the dither frequency by totally notching out all feedback torque at this frequency. The proof mass relative motion is then a direct measure of the rate because there is no feedback torque to alter the proof mass response to the acceleration. The feedback modulation system according to the invention captures the Coriolis-sensor output such that the phase and gain of the signal generated from the sensor are of no concern in maintaining good scale factor.

Title: Process and apparatus for removing particles of paint overspray from aqueous turbid liquid
Inventor: VOLLMER HEINZ-GEORG
IPC: B05B14/462
Filed: 1998-07-24
Abstract: Particles of paint overspray present in floating, and in dispersed form, as well as in submerged and coagulated form are removed from an aqueous turbid liquid.  The dispersed and submerged particles of paint overspray sediment and are then removed.  The sediment is allowed to settle out of a quiescent, turbid liquid onto the bottom of a first tank, whereas the floating particles remain on the surface of the turbid liquid.  The sediment is flushed into a second tank by lowering the surface level of the turbid liquid and is then concentrated in this second tank.  The surface level of the turbid liquid is then raised and the turbid liquid is allowed to overflow across a flow edge in such a way that the floating particles of the paint overspray are floated off.  The turbid water that has been cleansed is drained off.

Title: Method for transmitting data packets and network element for carrying out the method
Inventor: HEUER VOLKMAR
IPC: H04Q11/04
Filed: 1998-09-11
Abstract: A method is disclosed for transmitting data packets in wide area networks (WAN) by way of a synchronous digital data transmission network (SDH), wherein the data packets are packed into synchronous transport modules (STM-N) and are transmitted by way of virtual connections formed by subunits of synchronous transport modules of the same size. The virtual connections are entered into an address table and an evaluation of the target address of the data packets takes place in one of the network elements of the synchronous digital data transmission network. On the basis of the address table and the target address, at least for a part of the data packets, a decision is made by at least one of the network elements of the synchronous digital data transmission network as to which one of the virtual connections is used to transmit this data packet.  Furthermore, a network element is disclosed, which operates in accordance with the transmission method.

Title: Method for controlling non-volatile semiconductor memory system
Inventor: KAWAMOTO KAZUYA
IPC: G11C11/00
Filed: 1998-08-07
Abstract: In a memory system using a storage medium, which is inserted into an electronic apparatus via a connector to add a memory function thereto, the storage medium has a GROUND terminal, a power supply terminal, a control terminal and a data input/output terminal, and the connector has a function of being sequentially connected to each of the terminals. When the storage medium is inserted into the connector, the GROUND terminal and control terminal of the storage medium are connected to corresponding terminals of the connector before the power supply terminal and data input/output terminal of the storage medium are connected to corresponding terminals of the connector. Thus, it is possible to improve the stability when a memory card is inserted into or ejected from the memory system.

Inventor: MOY CHRISTIAN
IPC: G07B17/00
Filed: 1998-12-16
Abstract: In a postage printing device, a printer is employed to print postage indicia on mail pieces. The printer is preferably a noncontact printer such as an ink-jet printer. Printing occurs as the mail piece moves relative to the print head of the printer, which requires that reliable motion information (e.g. a print clock signal) be made available to the electronics driving the print head. The reliable motion is provided in a noncontact way, preferably by directing a laser beam toward the mail piece and detecting a moving speckle pattern in the light scattered from the mail piece.

Title: Manipulation of lignin composition in plants using a tissue-specific promoter
Inventor: CHAPPLE CLINTON C S
IPC: C12N9/02
Filed: 1997-07-18
Abstract: The present invention relates to methods and materials in the field of molecular biology, the manipulation of the phenylpropanoid pathway and the regulation of protein synthesis through plant genetic engineering. More particularly, the invention relates to the introduction of a foreign nucleotide sequence into a plant genome, wherein the introduction of the nucleotide sequence effects an increase in the syringyl content of the plant's lignin. In one specific aspect, the invention relates to methods for modifying the plant lignin composition in a plant cell by the introduction thereinto of a foreign nucleotide sequence comprising a tissue specific plant promoter sequence and a sequence encoding an active ferulate-5-hydroxylase (F5H) enzyme. Plant transformants harboring an inventive promoter-F5H construct demonstrate increased levels of syringyl monomer residues in their lignin, rendering the polymer more readily delignified and, thereby, rendering the plant more readily pulped or digested.

Abstract: Ce système de décodage traite un vecteur r reçu pour produire une sortie s de vecteur d'information incertaine de symbole, y compris une valeur de fiabilité pour chaque symbole de code reçu. A partir des valeurs de fiabilité, des grappes de symboles se trouvant dans le vecteur r reçu ayant une fiabilité réduite sont identifiés et détectés. Réagissant à cela, le vecteur r reçu est permuté pour disperser les symboles à fiabilité réduite de chaque grappe décodée à fiabilité réduite dans un mot codé donné. Une matrice de générateur de décodage G est également permutée de manière correspondante en réponse à la détection des grappes de symboles à fiabilité réduite. L'utilisation d'un treillis obtenu grâce à la matrice de générateur de décodage G' permet de décoder le vecteur r' reçu et permuté et ce, de manière séquentielle ou sous-optimale.

Title: Locking device
Inventor: WYERS PHILIP W
IPC: E05B67/00
Filed: 1999-04-01
Abstract: A locking device has a key operable locking head that is movable between a locked state and an unlocked state. The head has a housing with a rotatable retainer disposed therein. A lock core in the housing is axially oriented with respect to the housing opening. The lock core is mechanically coupled to the retainer and has a keyway to receive a key. Rotation of the key acts to rotate the lock core thereby causing rotation of the retainer to define the locked state and the unlocked state. A shackle includes a latch portion configured to engage for insertion into the locking head through the axial opening to define a mated state and configured to engage the locking head to prevent relative rotation therebetween. The latch portion includes a latch head configured for insertion through the aperture of the retainer when the locking head is in the unlocked state yet configured to prevent withdrawal from the aperture when the retainer is rotated to the locked state, whereby the latch portion is captured by the locking head to define a fastened state. The shackle member includes a linear portion and a stop portion disposed at a first end of the linear portion, the latch portion being disposed at a second opposite end of the linear portion
