Patent CA-2147506-A1 (CA)
Title: Inertial restraint mechanism for rail-mounted missiles
Inventor: HAINSWORTH BARTON J
IPC: F41F3/052
Filed: 1993-11-19
Abstract: An inertial restraint mechanism restrains a rail mounted missile (10)  against forward movement along a missile launch rail (12) in response to a deceleration force. The restraint mechanism comprises a mass (36) the move-ment of which is opposed by a spring force (44). When the mass overcomes the spring force due to a deceleration force in excess of a threshold magnitude, a locking mechanism (53) is activated to a missile restraining po-sition, thereby restraining the missile against forward movement. The restraint mechanism is locked (62, 65) in the missile restraining position to prevent release of a missile in re-sponse to multiple deceleration forces experi-enced by the missile and launch rail. Addi-tionally, a detent (75) may be provided which prevents actuation of the restraint mechanism to the missile restraining position unless the missile is stored in a storage compartment.

Title: Method and apparatus for identifying words described in a portable electronic document
Inventor: PAKNAD MOHAMMAD DARYOUSH
IPC: G06K9/20
Filed: 1995-07-06
Abstract: A method and apparatus for identifying words stored in a portable electronic document A digital computation apparatus stores a page of a document including characters in text segments that have not been identified as words. A word identifying mechanism analyzes the text segments of the page and stores the text segments as text objects in a linked list. The word identifying mechanism identifies words from the text objects in the linked list by analyzing the text objects for word breaks and by analyzing gaps between text objects using position data associated with the text segments. The identified words are stored in a word list and are sorted if necessary. A method of the present invention receives a text segment from a page of a document having multiple text segments and associated position data, including x and y coordinates for each text segment. A text object is created for each text segment, and the text objects are entered into a linked list. Words are then identified from the linked list by analyzing the text objects for word breaks and by analyzing gaps between text objects using the associated position data. Words that are identified in the text objects are added to a word list. The above steps are repeated until the end of the page is reached. The method and apparatus can be used for searching for words in a portable electronic document.

Inventor: GRIMM WOLFGANG
IPC: B32B5/20
Filed: 1996-02-19
Abstract: For the production of sandwich structure elements comprising non-cellular polyurethane layers and polyurethane foamed layers which are produced on a substrate by the application of layers to a substrate, it is proposed that at least the non-cellular polyurethane layers contain 15 to 55 % by weight of mica. Sandwich structure elements are obtained which are particularly dimensionally accurate and which adhere well. The effect is believed to be based on a non-homogeneous curing reaction of the mixture which reacts to form polyurethane, due to the presence of mica.
