Title: Equipment for the purpose of opening safes to which combinations have been lost
Inventor: GAUTHIER PETER
IPC: B25H1/00
Filed: 1993-04-21
Granted: 1999-06-29
Abstract: A tool comprising an anchor plate which is fastened to the outer housing of the safe by means of self tapping screws or screws using tapped holes so that a drill bushing located in the anchor plate is in alignment with the desired hole to be drilled in the safe housing, a frame is designed to attach to the anchor plate with a rotatably mounted shaft located centrally in the frame and to which is attached a drill chuck on the end nearest to the safe housing with the remote end machined to receive the chuck of an electric power drill with a threaded bushing enclosing this shaft fitted with a special knurled internally threaded disc and mounted so that when the knurled disc is rotated pressure can be applied to the rotating drill so that a hole may be drilled into the safe housing and penetrate the locking disc compartment where with the help of special lights and probes the combination may be discovered that is required to open the safe.
Patent CA-2098175-C (CA)
Title: Process and apparatus for the biological conversion of organic material in biomass
Inventor: BOEHNENSIEKER FRANZ
IPC: C05F17/02
Filed: 1992-11-20
Granted: 1997-05-13
Abstract: A process and an apparatus  for biological  conversion (composting) of organic waste material, particularly from kitchen and restaurant operations, involving the treatment in at least two separate chambers (7, 8).  In the first chamber (7), introduced organic material is treated only until  its  conversion  into  biomass  to  a  particular intermediate stage.  A portion of this partially converted material is then moved for a final stage of composting into the second chamber (8).  New waste organic materials introduced into the first chamber (7) are treated together with the remaining portion of the partially converted material.    Due  to  a  constant high volume  of  active microorganisms in the first chamber (7), the process of conversion of the newly introduced waste material  is started  immediately.  It  is  preferred  that  the  heat insulated housing (1) containing the chambers (7, 8) be controlled to rotate about a horizontal axis  (3)  for mixing  the  material  and  that  grinders  (12,  12') be designed for fine comminuting the material.  If desired, drying and/or sterilization of the composted material can be done in a third chamber.  An engageable container unit (40) receives the material composted in the second chamber (8).  The container unit (40) after disengagement from the treatment apparatus can be linked with other similar units into a transportation set for transportation by means of truck.  This apparatus allows conversion of waste material of the type mentioned to biomass in a quasi-continuous process in a shortened period of time, for example one to two days.

Title: Spontaneous emission source having high spectral density at a desired wavelength
Inventor: HUBER DAVID R
IPC: H04B10/43
Filed: 1993-11-08
Granted: 2002-01-01
Abstract: A spontaneous emission source bias a high spectral density at a desired wavelength. An integrated guided wave optical path is formed in either a semiconductor or silica substrate. An active medium and grating are provided within the optical path. The optical path is pumped to pass energy across the grating and active medium. The pump energy excites the active medium without lasing to output spontaneous emissions at a wavelength established by the grating. The source is particularly useful for reducing nonlinear effects in an optical fiber used for communicating AM or other information signals.
Patent CA-2106732-C (CA)

IPC: B29D30/24

Granted: 1996-01-09
Abstract: A tire building drum having a plurality of alternating  wide and  narrow  drum  segments  bearing shells matable to form a cylindrical  tire-building surface includes a shaft and concentric hub rotatable relative  one  another  to  expand  and  collapse  the drum.   In a preferred embodiment, blocks coupled to each respective segment via springs are mounted for bidirectional  radial  movement  in  rotationally-fixed relation to the shaft.  Links nestable when the drum is collapsed connect the blocks with the hub to drive the  blocks  radially  and  function  as  over-center toggles   stabilizing   the   drum   when   expanded.          Variable-engagement slides associated with the blocks most effectively resist non-radial forces exerted by the links when their relative magnitude is greatest.          Dimensional stability and precision of the drum are facilitated by radial and angular stops which are not subject to sliding wear.  Pins of different lengths coupling the wide and narrow drum segments to the blocks  cooperate with  the  springs  to  retract  the narrow drum segments first and by a greater distance when collapsing the drum.  The springs also cooperate with the radial stops by taking up relative movement between  the  blocks  and  drum  segments  to  prevent expansion of the drum at any point during transition to its collapsed condition.

Title: Buttonless memory system for an electronic measurement device
Inventor: FOX DAVID
IPC: G06F19/00
Filed: 1994-06-14
Granted: 1999-04-20
Abstract: The buttonless memory system of the present invention retrieves and stores the measurement results of a sample for the user of an electronic measurement device, particularly a portable and personal electrical measurement device, with minimal user interaction.  The user simply activates the portable measurement device and waits as the buttonless memory system initially cycles through the stored measurement results.  The buttonless memory system stops retrieving from memory when the measurement device detects a sample or control solution.  After test measurement of the sample, the user can choose to store the measurement result by deactivating the measurement device during the time the memory display is on.  If the sample is a control solution, the user can delete the measurement result from memory by waiting and deactivating the measurement device after the memory display is off.  In this way, the buttonless memory system provides a simple and effective memory management scheme for measurement devices.

Title: Teleoperator system and method with telepresence
Inventor: GREEN PHILIP S
IPC: H04N13/239
Filed: 1993-01-14
Granted: 2008-07-22
Abstract: A teleoperator system with telepresence is shown which includes right and left hand controllers (72R and 72L) for control of right and left manipulators (24R and 24L) through use of a servomechanism that includes computer (42). Cameras (46R and 46L) view workspace (30) from different angles for production of stereoscopic signal outputs at lines (48R and 48L). In response to the camera outputs a 3-dimensional top-to-bottom inverted image (301) is produced which, is reflected by mirror (66) toward the eyes of operator (18). A virtual image (30V) is produced adjacent control arms (76R and 76L) which is viewed by operator (18) looking in the direction of the control arms. By locating the workspace image (30V) adjacent the control arms (76R and 76L) the operator is provided with a sense that end effectors (40R and 40L) carried by manipulator arms (34R and 34L) and control arms (76R and 76L) are substantially integral. This sense of connection between the control arms (76R and 76L) and end effectors (40R and 40L) provide the operator with the sensation of directly controlling the end effectors by hand. By locating visual display (246) adjacent control arms (244R and 244L) image (2401) of the workspace is directly viewable by the operator (Figs. 12 and 13).  Use of the teleoperator system for surgical procedures is also disclosed (Figs. 7-9 and 13).

Title: Hands free noise canceling headset
Inventor: CLAYBAUGH DAVID
IPC: A61F11/06
Filed: 1992-04-30
Granted: 1999-02-02
Abstract: In the area of the active noise cancelation headsets, the noisy environment often encountered in the link with communication systems causes lack of intellig ibility on the outward communications path. Consequently another in-wire cancellation chann el to enhance the intelligibility is required. This additional processing channel adds to the cost of the headset. The invention uses residual microphones to reproduce the sound t hat remains in the ear after cancellation so that the controller can make further ad justments through filter and LMS adapter to the anti-noise signal.
