Title: System for enhancing navigation and surveillance in low visibility conditions
Inventor: NORRIS VICTOR J
IPC: G01S17/933
Filed: 1996-05-30
Abstract: A system for enhancing navigation or surveillance in low visibility conditions is realized by employing one or more ultraviolet radiation sources, a receiver which is capable of producing output signals from which a two dimensional image of the received radiation can be constructed, and a display device for displaying such image. In one preferred embodiment the ultraviolet radiation source is co-positioned with a critical marker such as a runway beacon or hazard beacon. The ultraviolet radiation emanates from the source, preferably modulated to form a repetitive, characteristic signal, propagates through the low visibility atmosphere, and received by the ultraviolet imaging receiver. In another preferred embodiment, an ultraviolet radiation source is placed at or near the ultraviolet imaging receiver, that is, onboard the same vehicle or at the same fixed location. One-or more reflectors are co-positioned with the critical markers. The reflector reflects or redirect an ultraviolet radiation signal, received from the source, back through the low visibility atmosphere to the ultraviolet imaging receiver whereby an image of the received radiation is presented to an operator by a display device. In another preferred embodiment, the reflector may be replaced with a transponder. The present invention permits a pilot, vehicle operator, air traffic controller, or other operator to perform navigation or surveillance tasks in low visibility conditions in similar manner to that employed under clear weather conditions.
Patent CA-2227368-A1 (CA)
Inventor: PICHETTE JEAN
IPC: F24H1/18
Filed: 1998-01-19
Abstract: The present invention relates to an expansion device installed inside a water heater tank to control pressure build up from expanding heated water. The expansion device comprises a closed air-tight flexible bladder filled with a predetermined volume of gas at a given temperature, such that when water is heated, expansion volume of the water so heated is provided by compression of the gas filled bladder, thereby compressing the gas, and when a demand is made for heated water, the expansion device expands back to about its original volume. The expansion device provides an additional volume for thermal expansion of heated water, avoiding opening of the relief safety valve and wasting of the expanded heated water.

Title: Apparatus for producing plastic film
Inventor: KRYCKI ROBERT D
IPC: B29C48/03
Filed: 1998-06-08
Abstract: Apparatus for producing plastic film, of the type in which molten plastic is extruded through an annular die to form a tubular bubble which is expanded by air blown into the bubble, and a collapsing frame for forming the bubble into a flat tube prior to passing the tube through a nip formed between rollers, in which opposed, converging reaches of endless belts are used for the collapsing. The belts have their upstream ends held by a pair of first rollers spaced apart on opposite sides of the bubble, and have their downstream ends held by a pair of nip rollers which hold the belts together to form a nip for the collapsed tube. Pulleys and a belt, or gears, are provided which rotatably interconnect the pinch rollers and ensure that tie belts entering the nip travel at the same surface speed.

Patent CA-2242812-A1 (CA)
Title: Liquid containment and dispensing device with improved resistance to shock loads
Inventor: KAMP DAVID C
IPC: B41J2/175
Filed: 1998-07-02
Abstract: An ink containment and dispensing device for an ink-jet printer is provided with a main reservoir in the form of a flexible pouch, which is typically maintained at ambient pressure. The main reservoir is coupled to a variable volume chamber via a one-way valve which allows the flow of ink from the reservoir to the chamber and prevents the flow of ink from the chamber to the reservoir. The chamber is coupled to a fluid outlet, which is normally closed to prevent the flow of outward ink. However, when the ink supply is installed in a printer, the fluid outlet establishes a fluid connection between the chamber and the printer. The chamber is part of a pump provided with the ink supply that can be actuated to supply ink from the reservoir to the printer.      The pump has a linearly acting pumping member and a flexible diaphragm that overlies the pumping member, the diaphragm being impervious to the transmission of oxygen and moisture therethrough to prevent degradation of the ink within the chamber.
Patent CA-2245965-A1 (CA)
Title: Miniature card edge clip
Inventor: BARNUM DAVID M
IPC: H01R12/72
Filed: 1997-12-22
Abstract: An edge clip is disclosed for electrically connecting a conductive pad on the surface of a printed circuit board or its edge to an external connector. The edge clip (10) is substantially U-shaped, with first and second opposing, nonparallel sides (12, 14) defining a space therebetween. For connection, the printed circuit board edge is fitted into the space such that the opposing sides provide spring-like deflective force against the pad and the printed circuit board (38), thereby providing a more reliable connection. The edge clip may include an alignment feature for facilitating alignment prior to soldering. The alignment feature may include small projections formed on the edge clip to align with, and fit into, holes on the printed circuit board. Scored sections (28) may be disposed on one edge of the clip to facilitate removal of the edge clip from a carrier during assembly. Further, the edge clip may include a center beam (54) extending away from one of the opposing surfaces to provide contact with another metallic surface, such as a miniature card case, thereby providing additional grounding capabilities which can provide protection against static discharge.

Patent CA-2246825-A1 (CA)
Title: Woven mesh interconnect
Inventor: MILLAY ARTHUR
IPC: H01R11/01
Filed: 1998-09-04
Abstract: An electrical interconnect is comprised of a woven mesh in which an array of parallel wires is retained in spaced relation by a transverse array of nonconducting strands, the mesh being enclosed or encased within a resilient matrix. The conductive wires are on a close pitch to yield greater current carrying capacity and achieve a lower more stable resistance.  With this construction a great number of wires are in contact with each contact pad to yield greater current carrying capacity and corresponding lower resistance.  The closer pitch wires also provide greater redundancy of contact points.  This structure can be custom configured in as many layers or in a variety of shapes as is desirable to achieve a given electrical performance.   The woven mesh can be wrapped around a shaped substrate to provide electrical connections in a desired shape.  The woven mesh interconnect can be  integrated as part of a boot,  wherein the boot receives an electrical device therein and the woven mesh interconnect provides electrical connection from the device within the  boot  to outside  the  boot.   The woven mesh interconnect  can  be  layered  and  shaped  to  form  an interconnect   which   not   only   provides   electrical interconnection but also provides a biasing force due to the shape of the device.
