Patent CA-2498262-A1 (CA)
Title: Furnace wall structure
Inventor: MATSUDA JUNICHIRO
IPC: F22B29/06
Filed: 2003-09-08
Abstract: A furnace wall 1 comprises: a furnace wall bottom part A composed of furnace wall tubes 2a having upward-spiraled fluid passages; a nose part C which has nose wall tubes 5a disposed in a middle part of a furnace rear wall B adjoining the furnace wall bottom part A; and a screen part D having screen tubes 7, wherein the terminal parts of the furnace wall tubes 2a are located lower than the nose part C. Consequently, the drain generated in the nose wall tubes 5a while the operation of the boiler is suspended can naturally fall inside the furnace wall tubes 2a located lower than the nose part C, and in a case where the header 6 is connected with the terminal parts of the furnace wall tubes 2a, the drain generated in the nose wall tubes 5a can naturally fall inside the header 6.     In addition, the furnace wall tubes 2b (2b1, 2b2) which extend upright from the terminal parts of the furnace wall tubes 2a can be provided to connect parts 2b1 of the furnace wall tubes 2b directly with the header 6, to connect the header 6 with the nose wall tubes 5a via vertical tubes 5e1 and 5e2; and to connect other parts 2b2 of the furnace wall tubes 2b directly with the screen tubes 7, thereby integrating the vertical furnace wall tubes 2b (2b1, 2b2), the vertical tubes 5e, and 5e2, and the screen tubes 7 by being welded via membrane bars 3. This results in the furnace wall structure not requiring reinforcing supports for supporting the weight of the furnace wall bottom part A.

Abstract: According to embodiments of the present invention, a method for communicating data associated with a user of a voice device is disclosed. A server receives a first identifier associated with a first device, the first device comprising one of the voice device and the data device. The server determines a second identifier associated with a second device based on the first identifier, the second device comprising the other one of the voice device and the data device. The server then establishes a connection with the second device using the second identifier and communicates data associated with the user of the voice device between the server and the data device. The communicated data can represent a user identifier (such as a user identifier stored on a smart card, the user's retina scan, the user's fingerprint scan and the like). The method is particularly useful for authorising an outbound call based on the user identifier and destination information in a controlled facility, such as a correctional facility or a military base.

Patent CA-2517237-A1 (CA)
Inventor: ECKARD DAVID W
IPC: F02N15/06
Filed: 2004-03-02
Abstract: An engine starter inertia drive that includes a torque transmission level control mechanism is presented. Such torque transmission level control is provided by removing the variations in clutch plate compression force conventionally introduced by the shock absorbing meshing spring of the engine starter inertia drive. This is accomplished by repositioning the compression forces such that they are contradicted by a combination of the meshing spring force and the frame reaction of the engine starter. In this way, variations in the meshing spring force are compensated by equal and opposite variations in the frame reaction force to maintain the clutch plates in position.  Preferably, a single wave spring is used to provide the pressure spring force on the clutch plates.
