Title: Lever handle controller for mortise lock
Inventor: PELLETIER THOMAS A
IPC: E05B59/00
Filed: 1999-12-20
Abstract: A free-wheeling lever handle controller (12, 14) for operating a mortise lock (10) provides freewheeling functionality while maintaining the full operational characteristics of various mortise lock functions. A lock mode receiving mechanism connectable to the lock output (52) is used to detect the unlocked and locked conditions of the mortise lock (10), and correspondingly engage and disengage the free-wheeling mechanism. The free-wheeling mechanism has a split shaft (46) connected between a handle (30) on the controller (12) and a handle input (50) on the mortise lock (10). The two halves of the shaft (46) may be coupled and uncoupled via a shaft lock (110) movable perpendicular between locked and unlocked positions. In the unlocked position the shaft lock (110) connects the two halves of the shaft (46) to rotate together when the handle (30, 60) is turned. In the locked position the shaft lock (110) disengages the two halves of the shaft (46) to rotate separately and allow the handle (30, 60) to free-wheel when operating the door latch (90). The shaft lock (110) is moved by the lock slide/cam (200, 204) couple of the lock mode receiving mechanism, which converts the rotational motion of the lock output (52) into linear motion of lock slide (200), such that whenever the mortise lock (10) is locked, the handle controller (12, 14) free-wheels.

Patent CA-2372752-A1 (CA)
Inventor: PHILIPP RUDI
IPC: F26B15/12
Filed: 2000-03-10
Abstract: In known rack dryers, the drying effect is weaker in the outer area on the side of the air intake into the pipe chambers than in the other areas. Said weaker drying effect is caused by turbulence in this area, which leads to a drop in the static pressure. The aim of the invention is to provide a dryer which ensures even drying of the goods across the entire width, even in the problem areas. The rack dryer is equipped with conductive bodies (20, 26) which are located on the partition wall (5) and which streamline the current  in the area of the air intake into the pipe chambers in such a way, that a predominantly even static pressure prevails throughout the entire pipe chamber. The invention can be used for drying sandwich-type plaster board or  wood veneer.

Title: An automatic transfer table for a woodworking machine
Inventor: STIBBARD JAMES SPENSER
IPC: B07C5/14
Filed: 2002-05-24
Abstract: The invention is an automatic, unmanned, powered, variable speed transfer table for a finger joint machine which receives a controlled supply of blocks from a lineal block feeder. The slat chain is composed of two chain loops, connected at regular, equal intervals by slats. The slat chain pushes blocks over an even ending conveyor which aligns them to the inside of one of the chains and then over a moisture detecting system. Blocks containing unacceptable moisture fall through a gap in the working table while blocks with acceptable moisture are pushed by the slats over a door covering the gap and onto an outfeed table. The slats are synchronized to the tugs on the finger joint machine's lug chain and deposit correctly aligned and orientated blocks precisely on the lug chain. The slat chain then rotates upward and loops back over the working table and then down, under the infeed conveyor to re-emerge at the even ending conveyor.

Filed: 2002-05-28
Abstract: A remote care service system comprises the care center (attended by a care worker), a first-aid center, and the plurality of home subsystems, each comprising a relay terminal and at least one wireless care recipient monitoring terminal disguised as an attachment-arousing and/or familiar article. The care and first-aid centers and the wireless terminals are accessible to a communication network such as the Internet. The relay terminal relays a communication between an associated wireless terminal and the center equipment. The wireless terminal tries an interactive communication with the care recipient by using a predetermined phrase to judge whether the care recipient is normal. If not, then the wireless terminal sends an abnormality report to the first-aid center, which responsively dispatches emergency men to the care recipient's home. Judgment the care recipient's health condition interactively with the care recipient enhances the reliability of the judgment.

Patent CA-2394970-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BLUMBERG BRUCE
IPC: A61K38/00
Filed: 2000-12-08
Abstract: A novel nuclear receptor, termed the steroid and xenobiotic receptor (SXR), a broad-specificity sensing receptor that is a novel branch of the nuclear receptor superfamily, has been discovered. SXR forms a heterodimer with RXR that can bind to and induce transcription from response elements present in steroid-inducible cytochrome P450 genes in response to hundreds of natural a nd synthetic compounds with biological activity, including therapeutic steroids  as well as dietary steroids and lipids. Instead of hundreds of receptors, on e for each inducing compound, the invention SXR receptors monitor aggregate levels of inducers to trigger production of metabolizing enzymes in a coordinated metabolic pathway. Agonists and antagonists of SXR are administered to subjects to achieve a variety of therapeutic goals dependent  upon modulating metabolism of one or more endogenous steroids or xenobiotics  to establish homeostasis. An assay is provided for identifying steroid drugs  that are likely to cause drug interaction if administered to a subject in therapeutic amounts. Transgenic animals are also provided which express huma n SXR, thereby serving as useful models for human response to various agents which potentially impact P450-dependent metabolic processes.
