Patent CA-2346521-A1 (CA)
Inventor: NICHOLS ADAM ROSS
IPC: B65D55/08
Filed: 1999-10-27
Abstract: A non-resealable, snap-fitted closure (10) comprises a closure, a drop ring (13) and a container (12). The closure has a sleeve with a sleeve snap (15).  The drop ring has an internal snap and an external snap wherein the internal snap engages the sleeve snap of the closure when the closure engages the drop ring. The container has a neck and a neck snap (20), wherein the neck snap and the internal snap of the drop ring engage when the closure and the drop ring engage the neck. The neck snap of the neck and the internal snap of the drop ring are an order of magnitude stronger than the sleeve snap of the sleeve and the external snap of the drop ring. When the closure is removed from the neck, the drop ring remains attached to the neck and is free to move vertically up and down along the neck, thereby preventing reattachment of the closure to the container.

Title: Fuel-air mixer for engine
Inventor: LERNER MOSHE
IPC: F02M35/104
Filed: 1999-10-21
Abstract: A fuel-air mixing device for installation preferably between an intake manifold and air intake duct of a cylinder of an internal combustion engine.  The device extends downstream into the air intake duct and has an open inlet end for channeling the air-fuel mixture into the device. A closed downstream end forces the air-fuel mixture to flow into the downstream end of the intake duct via special apertures which are adapted to atomise the fuel and mix the same with air. The arrangement ensures that the air-fuel mixture is urged towards and along the walls of the air intake duct, thereby vaporising the fuel by thermal contact therewith.

Patent CA-2353625-A1 (CA)
Inventor: DEDEREN CHRISTIAN JOSEPH
IPC: C09K23/00
Filed: 1999-11-29
Abstract: Personal care or cosmetic oil in water emulsions include an oil emulsifier and a combination of a Xanthan polysaccharide and a polyglucomannan polysaccharide to provide enhanced stability even at low emulsifier stabiliser levels. The emulsifier stabiliser system provides stable emulsions without dominating system rheology, particularly viscosity. Thus, the emulsions can have a low viscosity suitable for formulation as milks or thin lotions, or can be thickened, desirably by thickening agents other than the Xanthan and/or polyglucomannan, to provide emulsion creams or gels. This enables the system to be used very flexibly in end use applications. The emulsifier is desirably a non-ionic emulsifier and particularly is a combination of a low HLB and a high HLB emulsifier and can be formulated with conventional alcohol ethoxylate surfactants or from non-EO surfactants e.g. sucrose ester high HLB surfactants and citrate or sorbitan ester low HLB surfactants.

Title: Possibilistic expert systems and process control utilizing fuzzy logic
Inventor: STROBEL STEWART LORNA RUTH
IPC: G06N5/04
Filed: 1999-06-25
Abstract: An explicit assumption of continuity is used to generate a fuzzy implication  operator, which yields an envelope of possibility for the conclusion. A sing le fuzzy rule A?B entails an infinite set of possible hypothese A'?B' whose degree of consistency with the original rule is a function of the "distance"  between A and A' and the "distance" between B and B'. This distance may be measured geometrically or by set union/intersection. As the distance between  A and A' increases, the possibility distribution B* spreads further outside B somewhat like a bell curve, corresponding to common sense reasoning about a continous process. The manner in which this spreading occurs is controlled b y parameters encoding assumptions about (a) the maximum possible rate of chang e of B' with respect to A'(b) the degree of conservatism or speculativeness desired for the reasoning process (c) the degree to which the process is continuous or chaotic.
