Patent CA-2166778-C (CA)
Inventor: GROSS AKIVA
IPC: A23L7/10
Filed: 1994-07-11
Granted: 1999-08-24
Abstract: The present invention relates to food products derived from cereal grains, comprising a fiber with long, insoluble fiber strands which when present in the food product strengthens and improves its textural attributes. Preferred foods that can be strengthened with the insoluble fibers include edible wafers for frozen desserts and refrigerated novelties (e.g., ice cream cones), and formulated foods which include extruded foods, baked foods, puffed foods and snack foods (e.g., crackers, cookies, cereals and tortillas). The fiber functions to strengthen the food product regardless of its final molded, extruded or puffed shape. As described herein, the fiber can be any fiber derived from a plant or microbial source which has a high content of insoluble dietary fiber. Only a small amount of fiber is required to enhance the structural integrity of the final food product.

Abstract: An exhaust hood apparatus, adapted to be mounted over a cooking  station for expelling air containing cooking by-products, is described herein. The  exhaust  hood  apparatus  includes  a  controller circuit  electrically  connected  to  at  least  a temperature  sensor,  an  exhaust  fan  and  a plenum chamber washing system.   The controller circuit is configured so as to energize the exhaust fan and the washing system if the temperature sensor detects a temperature that is above a predetermined threshold, indicating  an  uncontrolled  fire  in progress.    A portion of the water exiting the washing system is therefore drawn in the exhaust duct by the exhaust fan to thereby cool the exhaust duct and maintain it below a predetermined safety temperature.  Furthermore, the exhaust fan also draws at least some of the smoke generated by the uncontrolled fire.

Abstract: A control for a heavy vehicle clutch wherein control members are moved rearwardly away from an engine to disengage a clutch from an engine and engage a clutch brake disc. A pair of co-acting multiple actuators are independently mounted at fixed locations on sides of a bell housing which encloses the clutch. The actuators are spaced apart from a longitudinal axis of the clutch and produce a resultant force which is substantially collinear with the longitudinal axis of the clutch. The actuators have outward extendable push rods which move rearwardly when a foot pedal is depressed to disengage a clutch and move forwardly when the pedal is disengaged to engage the clutch.      The push rods engage a movable member which is centered on the axis of the clutch having an outer side portion for restraining the clutch brake disc from rotating when the clutch is disengaged.

Abstract: An optical device for collecting light and selectively outputting or concentrating the light. A wedge layer has an optical index of refraction n1, and top, bottom and side surfaces intersecting to define an angle of inclination .slzero.. A back surface spans the top, bottom and side surface. A first layer is coupled to the bottom surface of the layer and has an index of refraction n2. The first layer index n2 causes light input through the back surface of the layer to be preferentially output into the first layer. A second layer is coupled to the bottom of the first layer and selectively causes output of light into ambient. Additional layers, such as a light polarization layer, a polarization converting layer and a post LCD diffuser layer can be used to make preferential use of polarized light or diffuse light having passed through the LCD layer to enhance viewing of the output light.

Abstract: Portability of directory numbers in telephone networks, particularly so-called intelligent networks, may be provided without modification of the call processing software at originating network node switches, by associating each call to a ported number with an Initial Address Message comprising a Location Routing Number for the recipient switch as the Called Number and the ported directory number as the Original Called Number. At a boundary with a network which uses a Location Routing Number, a Generic Address Parameter and a Forward Call Indicator flag for identifying calls to ported numbers, a network element creates a modified routing message by converting the Original Called Number to a Generic Address Parameter and setting a Forwarded Call Indicator flag to indicate a translated originally-dialled called number. The network element then uses the converted Initial Address Message to route the call into the second network. Public Office Dialling Plan or Termination Attempt triggers may be used to interrupt processing of a call to the ported number and initiate a query to a Service Control Point database far the corresponding Location Routing Number for inclusion in the Initial Address Message. Alternatively, call forwarding at the donor switch may be used to provide the Location routing Number for the originating switch to include in the Initial Address Message.

Movement of the moveable valve portion to another position closes the flowpath through the valve.  The valve includes an electrical junction box having a first set of electric line attachment sites  for  connection  of  a  set  of  car-mounted  electrical trainline conductors mounted on the railway vehicle and a second set of electric line attachment sites for connection of a set of electrical line end segments which are for terminating in a multiple contact electrical trainline connector, which is for connection to a similar electrical trainline connector on another railway vehicle. The junction box also has a third set of electric line attachment sites for connection of a branch electric line for connection to at either an electronic system or an electrical system located on the railway vehicle.  Each member of the first set of electric line attachment sites is electrically connected to a corresponding member of the second set  of  electric  line  attachment  sites  and  also  to  a corresponding  member  of  the third  set  of  electric  line attachment sites.
