Patent CA-2308295-A1 (CA)
Inventor: DELUCCA BARBARA
IPC: C11D11/00
Filed: 1998-11-02
Abstract: The present invention relates to liquid acidic compositions suitable for removing limescale-containing stains from a hard-surface, comprising an acid, from 0.001 ~o to 20 % by weight of the total composition of a polysaccharide polymer and from 0.001 % to 20 % by weight of the total composition of a vinylpyrrolidone homopolymer or copolymer, said composition being packaged in a spray type-dispenser. Such a composition provides improved shine to the surface treated while exhibiting effective limescale removal performance. The use of a polysaccharide polymer and a vinylpyrrolidone homopolymer or copolymer, in a liquid acidic composition being packaged in a spray-type dispenser, to treat a hard-surface, reduces or even prevents the formation of watermarks and even limescale deposits on said hard-surface after said hard-surface has first been treated with said composition and subsequently comes in contact with water. Also the use of a polysaccharide polymer and a vinylpyrrolidone homopolymer or copolymer, in a liquid acidic composition being packaged in a spray-type dispenser, to treat a hard-surface delivers shine/long lasting shine to the surface.

Patent CA-2320563-A1 (CA)
Title: Method of generating control data for bending and torsion apparatuses
Inventor: MEGURI HIDEO
IPC: B21D7/12
Filed: 2000-09-25
Abstract: A shape data specifies the shape of an elongated product within an overall coordinate system. Local coordinate systems are defined on respective cross-sections of the elongated product in the overall coordinate system. The local coordinate system is designed to represent a stable die of a bending apparatus. The images of the elongated product protruding forward from the stable die within the respective local coordinate systems serve to specify the position of a movable die of the bending apparatus. The specified position reflects the deformation induced in the elongated product between the stable and movable dies. An ideal movement amount of the movable die can be determined based on the determined positions within the local coordinate systems. The determined movement amount can be utilized to prepare the control data for the bending apparatus. When the prepared control data is supplied to the bending apparatus, an ideal movement of the movable die can be achieved so as to effect bending on the elongated workpiece at a higher accuracy in accordance with the shape data.

The board-dividing apparatus is equipped with a number of cameras and with controller which utilizes deviation measurement information to adjust the spacing of the saw blades. The wood fiber board (6) is first aligned with at least one initial camera (4a) at a point P1. Then, predetermined points (P1 and P2) in the decorative layer (3) are recorded by the first camera (4a) and a second camera (4b). A distance (L) between the points (P1 and P2) is determined, and thee discrepancy in the width or length value is determined by comparison of the actual position and the desired position of the points (P1 and P2). Then, the value of the determined discrepancy (A) is placed in relation to the number (n) of the saw blades (S n), and the parallel spacing (a) of the saw blades (S n) is modified by the value of the ratio of the discrepancy to the number of saw blades minus 1; (A/n-1). The orientation of the wood fiber board (6) to the saw (1) is displaced to one side in the amount of one half the determined discrepancy (A), and then the wood fiber board (6) is transported toward the saw (1) for cutting out the panels.

Inventor: BRICK CORMAC
IPC: H03M13/41
Filed: 2001-07-12
Abstract: A Viterbi decoder for decoding a convolutional code. For each possible state, an accumulated error AE is maintained at 66. As each codeword Rx-GP is received, the errors between it and the code groups of all the transitions are determined at 65. For each possible new state, logic 68 determines the errors of the two transitions leading from old states to that new state, adds them the accumulated errors of those two old states, and determines the smaller of the two sums. Path logic 67 records the corresponding transition, updating a record of the path leading to the new state. Tracing back along a path a predetermined and sufficiently large number of transitions, the input bit or bits corresponding to the transition so reached are taken as the next bit or bits in the stream of decoded bits. The unit 57 comprises a tree of comparators fed with the accumulated errors.  The accumulated errors are limited, before being fed to unit 57, by a set of limiters 76 to values less than the maximum error upper bound.
