Title: Increasing the Capacity of a Personal Communication Service System by Multiple Connections to Individual Telephone Links
Inventor: CHAVEZ DAVID LEE JR
IPC: H04W84/16
Filed: 1996-10-17
Abstract: Assigning one telephone link to each wireless set and connecting each of the assigned telephone links to all of a plurality of PCS systems. Each of the PCS systems has a plurality of base stations on which wireless sets can register. When an incoming call is received for a wireless set by a switching system terminating the telephone links, the switching system transmits a new call message on the telephone link assigned to the wireless set. The PCS system on which the wireless set is registered responds to the new call message by establishing a connection from the wireless set to the telephone link. The other PCS systems monitor the state of the call so that if the wireless set physically moves to a base station connected to a new PCS system, the new PCS system can continue the call without interruption or theswitching system having to perform any additional operations. Also, the PCS systems can be relatively small. When additional wireless sets are added, it is only necessary to add another PCS system and to connect all of the telephone links identified with wireless sets to the new PCS system.

Title: Log siding
Inventor: ANDERSON TED M
IPC: E04F13/08
Filed: 1996-10-22
Abstract: An improved log siding system capable of providing an improved water-shed between the individual log siding members as attached to a building. A moisture seal junction and a flex gap are formed between each adjacently disposed log siding member. Each moisture seal junction extends from the lower longitudinal edge of the exterior surface of each log siding member upward (vertically or angled inward) toward the respective flex gap, which extends therefrom toward the interior surface of the log siding members. The interspacing of each flex gap, in conjunction with a release cut formed in the interior surface of each log siding member, varies in response to structural deformations experienced by the log siding members due to variations in moisture content and/or temperature so as to maintain flush seal of each moisture seal junction. This effectively thwarts the ingress of moisture behind the log siding members so as to reduce the likelihood of swelling, rotting, and cracking over time.

Patent CA-2194703-A1 (CA)
Inventor: GEORGARAS STAVROS
IPC: F24C15/20
Filed: 1997-01-08
Abstract: A ventilation system having a hood located above cooking equipment which generates heat and fumes due to cooking. The hood has an inclined air filter at the back of the hood which rests on a flange extending along the length of the hood at the top thereof and the bottom of the inclined air filter rests on a grease collector extending along the length of the hood. The grease collector is located at a given distance downwardly from the top of the hood. The back of the inclined air filter defines an exhaust area, and the hood also includes an exhaust duct being in direct communication with the exhaust area and a fan for drawing the contaminated air out of the exhaust area. The hood also has a fresh air output that is connected to a fresh air duct including a fan and located along the length of the hood at the front thereof, this fresh air output being designed to inject fresh air into the hood. The invention is characterized in that the fresh air output of the hood is positioned to direct fresh air towards the inclined air filter at an upwards angle with respect to horizontal. The system further has a fresh air diffuser located behind the cooking equipment and near the floor, connected to the fresh air duct and being devised to diffuse air upwardly and downwardly. In use, the fresh air output forces the contaminated air to exit through the filter as it directs a steady stream of fresh air towards the filter. The fresh air diffuser feeds fresh air downwardly, which increases the burner efficiency of the cooking equipment and upwardly at the back of the cooking equipment, which creates air movement towards the hood reducing the amount of stale air that is present near the floor and behind the cooking equipment.
Patent CA-2197067-A1 (CA)
Title: Formation of diamond materials by rapid-heating and rapid-quenching of carbon-containing materials
Inventor: MISTRY PRAVIN
IPC: C01B31/06
Filed: 1995-08-09
Abstract: Diamond materials are formed by sandwiching a carbon-containing material (106) in a gap between two electrodes (102 and 104). A high amperage current is applied by power supply (110) between the two electrode plates so as to cause rapid heating of the carbon-containing material. The current is sufficient to elevate the temperature of the carbon-containing material over 1000 ~C. The carbon-containing material is then rapidly quenched by a heatsink (130). The heatsink can be in contact with one of the electrodes. This process is repeated until the diamond has formed. Also, a shielding or inert gas (140 and 142) is used during the process.

Title: Article made of brittle material encapsulated in an injection-moulded plastic holding frame
Inventor: SCHULTHEIS BERND
IPC: B29C45/14
Filed: 1997-04-18
Abstract: Shaped articles made of brittle material having a low coefficient of thermal expansion, for example designed as glass or glass-ceramic plates, are typically encapsulated with a holding frame made of plastic, which is produced by directly encapsulating the edges of the shaped article with plastic by injection moulding.  In order to avoid stress concentrations in the shaped article, which inevitably form as a consequence of the differences in thermal expansion and the material-dependent shrinkage behaviour, according to the invention shrinkage-absorbing elements are embedded between the holding frame and the shaped article, which elements additionally ensure a permanently elastic bearing of the shaped articles when used in practice and provide sufficient sealing during use.
Patent CA-2203314-A1 (CA)
Inventor: GOELMAN GADI
IPC: G01R33/54
Filed: 1997-04-22
Abstract: A method of fast spin echo 3D T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging. Radio frequency encoding, preferably Hadamard encoding, is used in the slice select direction. The point spread function of Hadamard-encoded slices is close to ideal, even at low encoding numbers. This allows the acquisition of 3D data volumes with tolerable image quality up to four times faster than is possible using Fourier phase encoding in the slice select direction. The scope of the invention includes both longitudinal and transverse encoding. Longitudinal encoding provides a better point spread function than transverse encoding, at the expense of having to discard one slice per slab.
