Patent CA-2850850-A1 (CA)
Inventor: ROBERTS PAUL
IPC: B25J9/08
Filed: 2012-10-15
Abstract: Herein is disclosed a multifunctional tool with replaceable tool tips. The disclosed multifunctional tool may be used as an end-effector on a robotic arm in space. Each tool tip, when in the tool holder, is driven by a common motor. The same motor can also be used to control the orientation of the tool tip about an axis. The tool tips are replaceable in the tool holder by simple and robust means, resulting in a lighter and cheaper multifunctional tool. The tool tips can be variously adapted to perform a variety of functions, including cutting, grasping, drilling, driving, etc. Since the tool may be driven by only one actuator, and the single actuator may be used to drive both the tool and rotation of the tool, mass can be saved. Use of such a multifunctional tool also reduces overall system power requirements, and system complexity.

Abstract: The present invention is an composite edge trimming tape made by adhering masking tape to wiretrim tape. The masking tape has a substrate layer and an adhesive layer. The wiretrim tape is made from a double-coated tape that has a substrate layer and two adhesive layers, one being on either side of the substrate layer. A filament is placed along the length of the masking tape in contact with one of the adhesive layers at the middle of the tape at equal distances from the two edges of the tape running longitudinally along the length of the tape. The tape is then folded over so that the portions of the tape on either side of the filament are bonded together by the adhesive layer, and the tape surrounds the filament at one end of the wiretrim tape. The composite edge trimming tape is formed by bringing the adhesive side of the masking tape in contact with one of the adhesive surfaces of the wiretrim tape so that one longitudinal edge of the masking tape is proximate to the portion of the wiretrim tape containing the filament.

Abstract: Discovering spam merchants using product feed comparison comprises a merchant signature computed by a comparison system using the offer data submitted by a merchant. The merchant submits a file to the comparison system for use on a product comparison website. The comparison system processes the file and calculates a merchant signature by parsing a specific feature common to all offers. The comparison system assigns a data value to each of the specific features included in each of the offers and generates a string of assigned data values. The comparison system executes a hash algorithm for the string of data values to obtain the merchant signature. The merchant signature is compared with the signatures of known spam merchants and if the merchant signature is within a predefined threshold of known spam merchant signatures, the merchant is rejected and the signature is marked as a spam merchant.

Title: Mechanical motion system for energy generation
Inventor: BASTOS RIBEIRO RENATO
IPC: F03G3/00
Filed: 2013-04-15
Abstract: A - An exclusively mechanical system was created made up of common market materials and parts such as a support structure built with metallic beams, a crankshaft, metallic bars connected to one another through rollers or supported to one another and a weight made of steel plates. B - It was planned and designed to mount these parts to form two arrangements, one primary and one secondary, forming assemblies and placing these assemblies side by side connected to each crankshaft arm. C - These arrangements were designed with two specific and fundamental functions. The first to enable the transfer of energy from the force of gravity existing on the weight support bar and the weight itself through the positive or neutral bars and the central shaft going to the crankshaft arm, generating a torque on its shaft. The second function is to enable the choice of the bar on which the weight support bar and the weight itself will be supported, through placement or removal of the locks on the support arc-locks. We can choose between placing and removing the lock of the telescopic arm. It also enables the choice of moment and time when this support remains effective. D - The value of the force of gravity existing on the secondary arrangement that includes weight and two telescopic arms, when supported on the neutral bar, is always the same, independent of the point where the weight is connected on the weight support bar. Therefore, with the weight hanging on the central shaft or on the end of the weight support bar, the value of the force of gravity that drives the central shaft will always be the same. E - The value of the force of gravity existing on the secondary arrangement that includes the weight and two telescopic arms, when supported on positive bar 5 or 6, is added by a proportional value between the length of positive bar 5 or 6 and the distance between the central shaft and the projection of the center of gravity of the entire secondary arrangement on the weight support bar. F - In this presentation, the secondary arrangement that includes weight and two telescopic arms was supported on the neutral bar 11 and on positive bar 5. When the support of the secondary arrangement is on positive bar 5 (connecting rod), they will generate an additional positive force and drive the crankshaft in a permanent and perpetual motion. G - Finally, this equipment, when concluded and built, must be locked. When unlocked, the crankshaft will turn and continue to turn forever.
