Patent CA-2362229-A1 (CA)
Title: Interactive printing with a plurality of printer devices
Inventor: VAN DEN TILLAART ROBERTUS CORN
IPC: H04N1/00
Filed: 2001-11-14
Abstract: A network system for printing digital print files, including personal workstations of users and a plurality of printers. The system further includes a print service and a print file storage service, that may be implemented in several ways. A user may submit a print file without specifying a particular printer on which the file must be printed. Then, he can walk up to any of the printers and start the print process for his print file there. In operation, the print service receives the print file, extracts metadata specifying job information from the file, and stores the file in the print file storage service. The metadata of the file are transmitted to the printers, which include the metadata in local print selection mechanisms resident in said printers. The user may select his print file at the operating panel of any one of the printers and start the printing process. In response, that printer fetches the print image data of the selected file from the print file storage service and prints the file.
Patent CA-2363170-A1 (CA)
Inventor: FUNG CEGO
IPC: G06F17/21
Filed: 2001-11-15
Abstract: A method and system for interactively generating letter/form document by a user for a recipient.   The concept for this service is to help people write business letters, conventional forms, or legal documents that makes it fast and easy to use. Each letter/form document request includes recipient and subject matter key information sufficient to create a letter/form document. The letter/form document server receives the request key information into the letter/form document template and transmits directly to the recipient.  Specifically, the form of written correspondence (e.g., business letter) is generated from a correspondence message on behalf of choice from the user.

Abstract: A backplane support bracket comprising a flange with opposing engaging tabs extending downward, and a flange extension arm with a connecting tab also extend-ing downward. The opposing engaging tabs and flange fit over a frame module support cross-member in close fit, and the connecting tab is secured to a cable con-nector of a connector bank using a cable connector mounting screw located along a backplane edge strip of a cutout. With one or more backplane support brackets so installed, the bracket greatly reduces flexing of the cutout edge strip when cables are inserted and re-moved from the cable connector bank and circuit cards are inserted into the backplane.
Patent CA-2363857-A1 (CA)
Inventor: DUNBAR MARK EDWARD
IPC: E21B19/10
Filed: 2001-11-27
Abstract: A concentric casing jack is disclosed having a casing supporter and actuator that uses hydraulic fluid to vertically raise and lower an inner concentric string of casing in a well. This casing jack is connected to a string of casing and can operate down-hole tools attached to the lower end of the casing by actuating the casing. The casing jack is supported at the surface by the wellhead and can be incorporated into a series of drilling spools and blowout preventer valves that are commonly utilized during drilling operations. The casing jack consists of a housing and a hollow piston whose internal diameter is similar in size to the concentric casing. The similar sizing allows drill bits and bottom hole assemblies to pass through the hollow center of the casing jack and the attached string of casing. The piston is equipped with external seals to hold hydraulic pressure between the hollow piston and the body of the jack. The lower shaft of the piston extends through the base of the casing jack housing where the lower shaft is threaded onto the concentric string of casing in the well bore. The upper shaft of the hollow piston extends above the top of the casing jack housing where it connects to the surface drilling equipment. The casing jack is equipped with two hydraulically retractable supports that fit into the recessed area of the hollow piston and support the weight of the casing and piston after the piston is in its raised position. The casing jack also contains an internal shoulder to support the piston and the casing when the piston is in the lowered position.

Title: Passive defibrillation electrodes for use with cardiac assist device
Inventor: EASTERBROOK WILLIAM
IPC: A61M60/468
Filed: 1999-10-14
Abstract: A cardiac support system includes a ventricular assist device adapted to be extended over a portion of a patient's heart to assist the ventricles of the heart to properly contract. One or more stimulating electrodes (74) are mounted on the ventricular assist device in selected locations such that when the ventricular assist device is extended over the heart, the stimulation electrodes are in close proximity to the surface of the heart. The system further includes one or more external pickup electrodes (70) that receive externally applied energy, and conduct that energy to the one or more stimulating electrodes via conductive leads (72). The external pickup electrodes (70) may be mounted on the outer surface of the ventricular assist device, or can be located at some other location inside the patient's body. The externally applied energy will typically be supplied by standard defibrillation paddles located outside of the patient's body. In place of the pickup electrodes, the stimulating electrodes can be wired directly to, respectively, a source of electrical energy, and a ground plate.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method for the preparation of fine-grain ore (2) in  which the ore (2) is subjected to wind screening using a gas. Two fractions are formed (6, 8): a crude fraction (6) and a primary fine fraction (8), whereby the crude fraction (6) is ejected (6) and the primary fine fraction (8) is carried along by the gas, then deposited out of the gas and at least the majority thereof this is processed together with the crude fraction (6).  The primary fine fraction is subjected again to a wind screening (8) using a  gas which results in the deposition of a secondary fine fraction (18) and is  processed together with the crude fraction (6). An ultrafine fraction (19) i s carried along with the gas and then deposited out of the gas. In the subsequent processing steps which the fine grain ore (2) is subjected to, caking and sticking which can be caused by the ultra-fine fraction (19), can  be avoided.

Title: Self-cleaning water filter
Inventor: BENENSON JAMES JR
IPC: B01D29/15
Filed: 2002-06-04
Abstract: A self-cleaning water filter, coupled to a water flow having particulates therein, that includes a pair of canisters, each having a cylindrical wedge wire water filter screen. An elongated brush running the length of the screen is disposed between two confining walls also running the length of the screen to form a chamber. A elongated partition, including two sets of apertures, is used, along with the elongated brush, to divide the chamber into two particulate dislodge chambers and a drain subchamber. A drain is in fluid communication with the drain subchamber. During cleaning, the drain is opened and the screen is rotated against the brush for liberating the particulate contaminants and a limited amount of the water flow into the two dislodge subchambers. The particulate contaminants and the limited amount of water then pass through the apertures at a high velocity and into the drain subchamber which exits through the drain. Alternatively, a reverse flow of clean water can be used in combination with the elongated brush, for dislodging the particulate contaminants from the water filter. Finally, another variation of using a reverse flow of water for cleaning purposes is discussed whereby a stationary water filter is disposed in a system that isolates the water filter from the normal water flow during cleaning.

Abstract: A communication system supports multiple source coding and/or channel coding schemes. When a handoff is needed that transfers radiocommunication service support responsibility from a base station controlled by one MSC to a base station controlled by another MSC, signaling procedures are employed to handle the transfer as it pertains to the source coding and/or channel coding, i.e., ensuring that the new MSC links in an appropriate codec to support the handed off connection. Various techniques are described to provide such signaling, both in the direction of the new (target) MSC and in the direction of the user equipment being handed off.
