Patent CA-2464045-A1 (CA)
Title: Torque control device for rotary mine drilling machine
Inventor: MOORE RICHARD E
IPC: E21B3/02
Filed: 1995-02-15
Abstract: A device reducing the deleterious torque in a shock absorbing, rotary drive coupling unit used with a rotary mine drilling machine comprising: a drive plate connectable to a drive shaft of the rotary drilling machine, a driven plate connectable to a driven shaft which has a drill bit, a center portion for coupling the drive plate to the driven plate wherein the center portion includes a deformable shock, vibration and torque-absorbing member, and torque-relief means comprised of a first engagement member(s) connectable to the drive plate and a second engagement member(s) connectable to the driven plate. When the drill bit snags or jams during the operation of the rotary drilling machine, the torque-absorbing member deforms and absorbs some of the torque generated therefrom. When the torque generated from a snag or jam reaches a predetermined level, the engagement members of the drive plate physically contact the engagement member(s) of the driven plate causing the drive plate to directly drive the driven plate thus preventing any additional torque from being applied to the torque-absorbing member. An optional tensile-force relief member is provided which is mounted to the driven plate and is positioned above the drive plate. The drive plate physically contacts the tensile-force relief member in response to a predetermined amount of lifting force applied to the drive plate thereby limiting the distance the torque-absorbing member stretches when the torque control device is lifted from a blast hole.

Title: Drain hole shape for vessel
Inventor: OBA TOSHINORI
IPC: F02M35/16
Filed: 2002-12-24
Abstract: A drain hole shape for a vessel capable of preventing a water film from forming in a drain hole without increasing the diameter of the drain hole. In a cross section including the centerline (6) of a drain hole (5), one wall (7) constituting the drain hole (5) is inclined with respect to the other wall (5). As a result, there is no possibility of a water film forming in the drain hole (5) due to surface tension, and instead water smoothly falls outside under gravity. Further, since the formation of a water film in the drain hole (5) can be prevented without increasing the diameter of the drain hole (5), entry of water into the vessel from the outside of the drain hole (5) can also be prevented.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un système d'amenée d'eau comprenant une conduite d'amenée et un réseau de consommateurs, l'un d'entre eux étant un consommateur surveillé recevant la plus faible quantité de pression, un système de régulation de pression comprenant un robinet réducteur de pression (PRV) associé à un robinet pilote préréglé sur une pression de sortie nominale, et un système de commande de pression comprenant un robinet de commande différentielle (DVC). Une unité de mesure permet de mesurer un paramètre d'écoulement indiquant la pression au niveau du consommateur surveillé, et d'émettre un signal de pression vers un dispositif de commande générant à son tour un signal de commande en réaction au signal de pression pour activer un actionneur du DVC, ce qui permet de réguler le débit à travers le DVC, de sorte à obtenir la pression voulue au niveau du consommateur surveillé, sans tenir compte de modifications de débit à travers le PRV.
Patent CA-2471758-A1 (CA)
Title: Derailleur protector
Inventor: HAMMONS PETER L
IPC: B62J13/00
Filed: 2004-07-17
Abstract: The rear derailleur on a bicycle is necessarily mounted in a position which makes it vulnerable to damage and misalignment during off road riding. This invention both protects the derailleur from impact and adds support by constraining the derailleur at a second point, additional to its own mounting point. This invention places a protective member over the derailleur which is attached to the bicycle frame at a point which is independent of the derailleur mount. This protective member covers the part of the derailleur which protrudes the farthest from the bicycle. A pin which protrudes inward from the protective member constrains the rear derailleur at the head, or outer, end of its mounting bolt.
Patent CA-2472852-A1 (CA)
Inventor: FENKANYN JOHN MICHAEL
IPC: B25B27/04
Filed: 2004-07-05
Abstract: A tool for insertion of a sensor to a predetermined depth within a bore includes an elongate tool tip terminating at a tip end, a handle affixed to the tip, and an axial passageway extending through the tip and handle to a tool end. A window is provided extending transversely into the tool tip at a location between the tip end and the handle and provides visual access to the passageway. The tool is capable of use in two modes of operation. In a first mode, a bore is drilled into an object body such as a tire to the required depth. The sensor leads are fed through the tip of the tool and pulled through the handle until the sensor touches the tip of the tool. Thereafter, the tip of the tool with the sensor is inserted into the pre-formed bore. The tool tip is then removed out of the bore, leaving the sensor within the bore at the pre-determined desired depth.  In the second mode of operation, the tip of the tool is inserted into the pre-drilled bore and a thermocouple is inserted into the bore via the axial passageway extended through the tool tip and handle. The progress of the thermocouple insertion is tracked through the window. A marking or other indicia may be placed on the trailing leads of the thermocouple at a predetermined spacing from the thermocouple. Visual identification of the arrival of the indicia at the tool tip window indicates a successful insertion of the thermocouple to its intended depth. Thereafter the tool tip is removed, leaving the thermocouple within the bore at the predetermined, optimal depth.
