Patent CA-2183326-A1 (CA)
Inventor: WOLF BODO
IPC: C10J3/66
Filed: 1995-02-08
Abstract: A process is disclosed for generating burnable gas by gasifying water- and ballast-containing organic materials, be it coal or garbage.  The drying, low temperature carbonisation and gasification steps are carried out separately.  The heat taken from cooled gasified gas is supplied to the endothermic drying and low temperature carbonisation stages.  The low temperature carbonisation gas is burned in a melting chamber furnace with air and/or oxygen or oxygen-rich flue gas and the liquid slag is evacuated, whereas the low temperature carbonisation coke is blown into the hot combustion gases that leave the melting chamber furnace at a temperature from 1200 to 2000 °C.  The endothermic reactions which take place and give carbon monoxide and hydrogen reduce the gasification temperature to 800-900°C.  Unnecessary or insufficiently reactive carbon is removed from the gasification gas, supplied to the melting chamber furnace and completely burned.  The advantage of the invention is that the ashes may be transformed in to an elution-resistant granulated building material, in that a tar-free burnable gas is generated and in that oxygen consumption is strongly reduced in comparison with the fly stream gasification process.

Title: Decorative moulding with removable decorative panel
Inventor: LAMONT BERNARD
IPC: E04F19/04
Filed: 1996-10-17
Abstract: The invention is a decorative moulding characterized by an elongate channel recessed into its front face and adapted to releasably retain an elongate strip-like panel in either a concavely-flexed position or a flat or convex position.  Retention means for the releasable retention of the panel are incorporated into the channel.  The retention means comprise two pairs of elongate, spaced-apart flanges that extend towards the floor of the channel and partly occlude the mouth of the channel.  The flanges are shaped to retain a panel in a concave position within the channel by means of the upper and lower side edges of the panel being retained between respective pairs of flanges, or in a flat or convex position by means of retention between the free edges of the flanges and the floor of the channel.          The invention also comprises the combination of a moulding with panel-retaining means and a decorative panel that comprises an elongate strip-like sheet having sufficient rigidity to retain its position within the channel while being retained only along its side edges.

Title: Delignification of chemical pulp with peroxide in the presence of a transition metal
Inventor: PAREN AARTO
IPC: D21C9/16
Filed: 1995-06-19
Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the delignification of a chemical pulp, such as a sulfate or sulfite pulp, in which process the pulp is treated with a peroxide and/or a peracid in the presence of an activating Ti-, V- or Cr-group transition metal, such as molybdenum, vanadium or tungsten. The essential idea in the invention is that a compound containing at least one heteroatom, such as Si, P or B, which is capable of forming a heteropolyacid with the activating transition metal, is added to the pulp. The feeding of the activating transition metal and the heteroatom into the pulp may take place in one and the same alkaline solution, for example introduced into the solution or in the form of a compound of the silicomolybdenic acid type, formed in the solution. The peroxide and/or peracid treatment may constitute part of the bleaching sequence, which contains as potential other treatment steps, for example, a treatment with oxygen and a chelation for the removal of heavy metals such as iron, manganese and/or copper.

Title: Combined virustatic antimediator (covam) treatment of common colds
Inventor: GWALTNEY JACK M JR
IPC: A61K9/12
Filed: 1995-08-09
Abstract: The common cold and related disorders such as influenza, acute sinusitis, acute otitis, and infectious exacerbations of obstructive pulmonary disease, are best treated by providing a combination of antiviral agents and antiinflammatory compounds to a patient infected with a cold or influenza virus. An antiviral agent and two antiinflammatory compounds given to a person infected with a cold virus simultaneously reduce the likelihood of a cold developing and the amount and duration of viral shedding, as well as substantially reduce the severity of individual cold symptoms and the overall number and severity of cold symptoms. Supplementing the activity of the combined antiviral and antiinflammatory agents with such compounds as antihistamines and alpha agonists results in suprisingly good nasal benefits.  Particularly good treatment results when an antiinflammatory compound which will reduce the volume of mucus secretion and/or reduce the viscosity of mucus present in the sinus cavity. The combination therapy, termed COVAM therapy, is well tolerated and has no evidence of short-term toxicity.

Abstract: The invention relates to a run-flat low inflation pressure all terrain vehicle (ATV) tire 10,11, wherein the tire 10,11 has at least one pair of elastomeric inserts 42,46, one insert 42,46 extending radially inward from each tread edge 14,16 toward a bead core 26.  The radially inner end of the insert is radially inward of an elastomeric apex 48 located above the respective bead cores 26.  The bead cores 26 have a wide substantially flat radially inner base which when the tire 10,11 is mounted on a conventional ATV design rim enable the tire 10,11 to remain seated onto the rim even when operating without any inflation.  The preferred tire 10,11 has a unique tread 12.  The central portion 13 of the tread 12 has circumferential rows of blocks or lugs 94.  The lugs of laterally adjacent rows in a central region 13 of the tread 12 are connected by tie bars 93 which when employed on these run-flat tires keeps the tread lugs 94 in ground contact even when the tire is operated uninflated. The inventive tire 10,11 can be constructed providing limited run-flat capability or with a full run-flat capability never requiring air inflation during use.

Title: Releasable fluid hose loading arm system
Inventor: KONCSEK SANDOR
IPC: F16L3/01
Filed: 1997-08-01
Abstract: A system 10 fluidly connects a bulkhead B to a portable. transport using a flexible fill line or liquid hose LH. The system includes a coupling 12 for separating the liquid hose LH from the bulkhead B during an inadvertent pull-away. An arm 24 is pivotally supported by the bulkhead B, and a support plate 36 is supported at the upper end of the arm 24. A release disk 50 is normally supported by the plate 36, and in turn supports a saddle 42 for supporting the liquid hose LH. Three circumferentially spaced pins 38 function as retaining members to support a release disk 50 on the plate 36. The components thus function to prevent the discharge end of the hose from dropping onto the ground. During a pull-away, at least one of the coil springs 64 associated with each release pin is compressed, thereby releasing the disk 50 and allowing both the saddle 42 and the liquid hose LH to become disconnected from the arm 24. The continued pull-away then separates the coupling 12, thereby preventing fluid from escaping from the bulkhead.

Title: Method and apparatus for adaptive channel allocation with power control in a mobile communications system
Inventor: WALLSTEDT KENNETH
IPC: H04B7/005
Filed: 1996-03-20
Abstract: In a cellular communication system, a method and apparatus are provided for allocating a channel for use on a connection between a base station and a mobile station in a cell, without making measurements of downlink interference. Throughout the system, uplink and downlink power levels are regulated so that, within each cell, their sum changes by an amount whose magnitude is substantially equal to the magnitude of change in path gain between the mobile station and the base station in that cell, and which sum is opposite in sign to the amount of change in path gain. This power regulation scheme assures that there will be a strong correlation between system-wide measurements of uplink and downlink interferen ce. Therefore, with the power regulation scheme in place, each cell determines uplink carrier to interference (C/I) ratios for the free channels available for use in the cell and selects an acceptable free channel having a C/I value that is within a predetermined acceptable range. If uplink C/I on the acceptable free channel is greater than the uplink C/I value of a channel currently assigned to a connection, then an intra-cell handover is performed so that the connection will be reassigned to the acceptable free channel. This technique is useful for providing an adaptive channel allocation scheme to systems, such as analog cellular communications systems, in which downlink interference measurements cannot be made.
