Patent CA-2367877-C (CA)
Title: Method for reducing test cycle time and for improving measuring accuracy at a leak testing process
Inventor: LEHMANN MARTIN
IPC: G01M3/32
Filed: 1990-01-23
Granted: 2003-10-14
Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for reducing the test cycle time and for improving the measuring accuracy of a leak testing process of a container. The process comprises the steps of providing a pressure difference as an initial predetermined pressure between the exterior of a closed container and the interior of the closed container without destroying the integrity of the container. The pressure exterior to the sealed container is measured for a certain time. This measurement determines the pressure integrity of the closed container. The method also includes the step of minimizing the volume of the exterior of the closed container wherein the size of that volume determines the test cycle time and the measuring accuracy. The invention further comprises a test chamber which is closable and contains a cavity for introducing the container under test. A means is provided for installing or introducing a pressure difference at an initial predetermined value between the exterior of the container under test and the interior of the cavity. A measuring unit is provided for measuring the pressure value which is dependent on the pressure difference and the leakage of the container. The shape of the cavity is at least substantially geometrically similar to the shape of the container so as to minimize the volume of the cavity outside the sealed container under test.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method of making transgenic plants. Heterologous DNA is first introduced into a donor plant, plant cell or protoplast to a plant cell or protoplast, and then moved from the donor to a recipient plant, plant cell or protoplast unaccompanied by any native genomic DNA of the donor. The donor and recipient are chosen that produce unstable progeny or demonstrate preferential segregation or sorting out. The DNA may be inserted randomly or at specific locations in the genome of the recipient plant. Also disclosed are transgenic plants produced by the methods, and plant progeny, plant parts and seeds and seed parts from the plants.

Abstract: L'invention porte sur un chewing-gum enrobé comprenant environ entre 25 et 99,9 % en poids d'un noyau comprenant au moins un polymère élastomère ou résineux dégradable, sans danger pour l'environnement, et environ de 0,1 à 75 % en poids d'un enrobage. L'invention porte également sur les procédés de préparation de ce chewing-gum. L'enrobage est un sucre dur ou un enrobage sans sucre, un film ou un enrobage mou. L'application d'un enrobage empêche la dégradation des polymères dégradables avant la mastication du fait des effets physiques ou chimiques, ce qui prolonge la durée de vie du chewing-gum dégradable, sans danger pour l'environnement. Après mastication, le chewing-gum se dégrade dans l'environnement et peut être retiré plus facilement que le chewing-gum à base de polymères non dégradables.

Abstract: An inflation valve assembly, for a dunnage or cargo air bag, comprises an annular flange member which is adapted to be heat-sealed to an interior surface portion of one of the plies of the inflatable bladder of the air bag, and an externally threaded nipple portion for fluidic connection to a source of pressurized fluid for inflating the bladder of the dunnage or cargo air bag. The inflation valve assembly also has a substantially C-shaped upstanding ring member integrally disposed upon the upper surface portion of the annular flange member, and a substantially planar, disc-type flapper valve member, having a substantially circular configuration, has an end portion which is adapted to be fixedly secured upon an arcuate portion of the upper surface portion of the annular flange member by means of a fixation bar which extends along a chordal extent of the annular flange member.      Opposite end portions of the fixation bar project radially inwardly toward each other so as to effectively define a pair of oppositely disposed detents for maintaining the flapper valve member in its OPENED state. Accordingly, the height dimension or depth profile of the new and improved inflation valve assembly of the present invention is able to be substantially reduced so as to enable the inflation valve assembly to readily facilitate the sealing of the inflatable bladder during the fabrication thereof.

Abstract: Methods for conveying, mixing, leveling, and flaking dewatered pulp to produce pulp flakes suitable to be used in a dryer. Methods for producing a consistent flow rate of pulp, and, for producing uniform pulp flakes in terms of pulp flake size and pulp flake moisture content. A method includes introducing a dewatered pulp to a rotating shaftless screw conveyor. The pulp is deposited from the screw conveyor onto a moving belt conveyor through a chute. The pulp is leveled with a rotary doctor located above the belt conveyor to produce a substantially even rate of mass flow of pulp along a length of belt conveyor. Uniform and consistent quantities of pulp per unit time can then be fed from the belt conveyor to a pulp flaker that then translates into an even rate of pulp mass flow to the dryer.
