Patent CA-2495249-A1 (CA)
Inventor: TYRA CHRISTOPHER
IPC: B41N1/24
Filed: 2003-08-13
Abstract: A stencil in sheet or roll form that is adapted for stenciling large surfaces such as walls or ceilings, particularly when those surfaces are of a delicate nature. The stencil is a laminar structure including an outer layer of a absorbent flexible material such as paper permanently adhered to a flexible barrier layer. On the side of the barrier layer opposite the outer layer is a pressure sensitive adhesive layer that is fixed to the barrier layer, yet temporarily and releasably adheres the stencil to the surface to be decorated.  The pressure sensitive adhesive may be covered with a release liner that is easily removed to expose the adhesive for application of the stencil sheet to the surface, and that prior to being removed, permits the stencil sheets to be formed conveniently into a roll or stacked without adhering to itself or one another.

Title: Multi-variable operations
Inventor: BROOKS ROBIN WILLIAM
IPC: G05B23/02
Filed: 2004-09-06
Abstract: Operation of a multi-variable process involves multidimensional representation of the values (pl-p12) of the process variables (Pl-P12) according to individual coordinate axes, and an operational envelope (UB,LB) derived from a group of sets of values for the process and quality variables (P1-P12,Q1-Q2) accumulated from multiple, earlier operations of the process, defines an operating zone for the process and quality variables of the process. If the current value (p7) of any process variable (P7) goes outside the envelope, an envelope (UO,LB) for a different, wider grouping of the stored data-sets is displayed at least for the quality variables (Ql-Q2). A series of nested envelopes to provide stepwise enlargement of the operating zone may be provided, but non-nested envelopes can be used where there is clustering of acceptable values of process variables of the stored data-sets. The changes to control variables to bring the values of dependent variables within a best operating range can be determined.
