Title: Inspection ultrasonore a longue impulsion a bande large
Inventor: SKALLOS RICHARD
IPC: G01M99/00
Filed: 2003-09-24
Abstract: L'invention concerne un véhicule d'inspection ultrasonore robotisé pourvu d'au moins un transducteur. Ces transducteurs sont excités par une longue impulsion d'excitation à bande large afin d'insonifier un échantillon soumis à l'inspection. De préférence ladite impulsion est comprimée.

Title: Seringue de securite a vide auto-retractable
Inventor: TENG JUN PIAO
IPC: A61M5/315
Filed: 2003-10-27
Abstract: L'invention concerne une seringue équipée d'un corps creux, d'un piston monté coulissant dans ledit corps et d'une aiguille montée à une première extrémité dudit corps. Un premier élément d'étanchéité, à une première extrémité du piston et à l'intérieur du corps, s'appuie coulissant en étanchéité contre ledit corps. Un second élément d'étanchéité s'appuie en étanchéité contre le corps et de manière coulissante contre l'arbre du piston, le second élément d'étanchéité étant placé entre le premier élément d'étanchéité et une seconde extrémité opposée du corps. La poussée du piston dans le corps crée un vide entre le premier et le second éléments d'étanchéité, ce qui permet de pomper le liquide dans la seringue en vue de l'injection. Dans un mode de réalisation, le vide peut servir pour rétracter automatiquement l'aiguille dans le corps, si le piston est d'abord poussé selon une dose suffisante. Une partie du piston se brise aisément après usage, rendant impossible la réutilisation de la seringue.

Patent CA-2534840-A1 (CA)
Inventor: DAYKIN ADAM
IPC: G07D7/04
Filed: 2004-08-19
Abstract: In order to check the authenticity of a banknote or other such document it is printed with two patches (2) of magnetisable ink, and each patch is magnetised to present a multipole sequence of alternating polarity. If the document is folded to bring the two patches together and then rubbed to and fro in the direction of the pole sequences, they will be subject to alternating forces of attraction and repulsion which can be sensed through the fingertips and gives the impression of a physically rippled texture notwithstanding that the patches (2) actually have a smooth surface. The presence or absence of this effect can therefore be used to distinguish between a genuine document bearing such magnetised patches and a counterfeit which may be visually identical but lacks the correct magnetisation. In a variant only one of the patches is printed on the document itself and the other is on a separate "key" device which is rubbed over it to test for the presence of the correct magnetisation.

Abstract: The Luminescent video game controller serves the purpose of making the video game playing experience more enjoyable. The glow controller parts when illuminated with glow, provides a pleasurable viewing and gaming experience. Giving the gamer the ability to see the parts of the controller in the dark gives the gamer a visual advantage. The glow in the dark luminescent video game controller is a novel invention, and is unlike any other controller on the market that claims it "glows". The competitor controller that claims it "glows" uses a LED light emitted diodewhich is a light inside the controller molding. The Luminescent video game controller uses natural light, making the controller parts glow "naturally". The game player takes the controller to the nearest light bulb source, hold it for thirty seconds or so, then proceeds to play the video game in the dark.
