Abstract: Le remplacement de la graisse de cuisson usée de dispositifs de friture comportant un contenant de réserve pour le produit à cuire et un dispositif de cuisson, c'est-à-dire un tambour de friture, prend beaucoup de temps et nécessite un gros travail de nettoyage. En outre, la perte de graisse de cuisson peut salir l'endroit où est installé le dispositif de friture. L'invention concerne donc un dispositif de friture dans lequel on remplace un tambour de cuisson (20) contenant de la graisse de cuisson, ce qui permet d'éviter les inconvénients présentés par les dispositifs de friture connus pourvus d'un système d'évacuation de la graisse de cuisson.? ¿

Abstract: A handheld electronic device includes a reduced QWERTY keyboard and is enabled with disambiguation software. The device provides output in the form of a default output and a number of variants. The output is based largely upon the frequency, i.e., the likelihood that a user intended a particular output, but various features of the device provide additional variants that are not based solely on frequency and rather are provided by various logic structures resident on the device. The device enables editing during text entry and also provides a learning function that allows the disambiguation function to adapt to provide a customized experience for the user. The disambiguation function can be selectively disabled and an alternate keystroke interpretation system provided. Additionally, the device can facilitate the selection of variants by displaying a graphic of a special <NEXT> key of the keypad that enables a user to progressively select variants generally without changing the position of the user's hands on the device.
Patent CA-2510476-A1 (CA)
Title: Stormwater filtration device
Inventor: YOUNIS HISHAM
IPC: E03F5/10
Filed: 2005-06-29
Abstract: A single tank for primary or inline treatment of stormwater runoff. The tank consists of multiple concentric or eccentric compartments that are cylindrical or rectangular in shape. The inner compartment receives the untreated water through a perforated catch-basin cover or an inline inlet pipe. The partially treated water from this compartment, and any other compartment thereafter, overflows into a receiving compartment that completely surrounds the source compartment. The combination of gravity, density gradients, pipe siphon arrangement and laminar flow conditions created by the shape of each of the treatment compartment forces maximum separation of oils and sediments without the need for moving parts or chemicals. A mixture of non compacted oleophilic and oleophopic media is installed in the final compartment(s) to coalesce residual free and partially emulsified oil droplets and separate them from water. The media will also help knock out residual suspended solids.  Other types of media like iron humate, Mica, sand, activated carbon or bacterial growth enhancing media can be used in conjunction of or instead of the oil-removal media to remove other pollutants.

Filed: 2004-01-21
Abstract: In in-flow chemical reaction system (A), a glycoprotein-containing sample solution is continuously introduced through sample injection device (4) in reaction tube (7) through which alkali solution (1) flows. When a mixture of sample solution and alkali solution (2) reaches thermostatic bath (6), splitting reaction of glycoside bonds is advanced to thereby effect separation of sugar chains from the glycoproteins. The alkali of the solution containing the sugar chains is removed by means of ion exchange column (12), and only the sugar chain (14) fraction can be collected in sample tube (13). The reaction time of this in-flow chemical reaction system (A) is in minutes, markedly shorter than that required in conventional systems. As a result, splitting of glycoside bonds and separation of sugar from the compound having glycoside bonds can be accomplished rapidly, simply and in high precision.

Abstract: A headrest assembly that includes a head support connected to a rail that is adjustably mounted to a housing so that the headrest assembly is capable of moving between a use position and a stow position. A lock member engages the rail in the use position and operably disengages the rail to initiate the movement from the use position to the stow position. Specifically, the rail is biased to a stow position so that disengaging the lock member from the rail moves the headrest assembly from the use position to the stow position. The headrest assembly is also coordinated into a seat assembly such that the movement of a seatback from a use position to a stow position concurrently causes the headrest assembly to move from the use position to the stow position.
