Title: Method of making a can having a recessed base
Inventor: DERR BENJAMIN
IPC: B21D22/30
Filed: 2001-10-25
Abstract: A method of making a can having a recessed base (12) and, in particular, to a method of forming a recessed base (12) in can bodies of the type which include a side wall (14) having flutes or grooves (16) defined therein. A first forming step creates a preform having a side wall with at least one axially extending rib formed therein and a base which is coextensive with the side wall and intersects the side wall at a rim. This first forming step is performed so that at least a portion of the base is recessed by a predetermined depth with respect to the rim. The method further includes a second step which comprises a further drawing operation to form a can body having a recessed base. It is important that the predetermined depth be sufficient to prevent any of the axially extending ribs from being drawn into the recessed base.
Patent CA-2428293-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BALD HUBERT
IPC: B28B3/02
Filed: 2001-06-19
Abstract: L'invention concerne un dispositif de compactage et son procédé d'utilisation pour réaliser des compactages sur des corps moulés placés sur des palettes et constitués de matériaux granuleux, lesdits compactages étant effectués par une table vibrante qui envoie des secousses sous la palette. Cette table vibrante constitue, avec un ressort, un ensemble ressort-masse oscillant fonctionnant comme un vibreur, qui est excité par un dispositif d'excitation pour effectuer des vibrations forcées. Le système de ressort, avec ladite masse, est conçu pour développer au moins une fréquence propre dans la plage de fréquences de compactage, cette fréquence propre pouvant être réglée en continu ou par paliers. La fréquence d'excitation étant réglable, le vibreur peut donc fonctionner en mode de résonance partiellement ou entièrement sur l'ensemble de la plage de fréquences de compactage. Comme actionneurs d'excitation, on utilise de préférence des moteurs linéaires électriques. Ce système de compactage présente des avantages quant à la qualité de transmission de l'énergie de compactage, et il permet de développer de très hautes fréquences de compactage, tout en alliant une longévité élevée et une faible consommation d'énergie du vibreur. Il est de préférence utilisé sur des machines pour blocs de béton.

Patent CA-2452157-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BRADFORD ETHAN R
IPC: G06F40/00
Filed: 2003-07-17
Abstract: A dynamic database reordering system provides a linguistics database that contains words that are ordered according to a linguistics model that dictates the order in which words are presented to a user. While a user enters keystrokes on a keypad of a communications device is pressing keys, the invention predicts the words, letters, numbers, or word stubs that the user is trying to enter. The invention reorders the linguistics model order based on the user's usage of the system by tracking the user's word selections. Once a word has been selected as a result of a next key selection (the nexted word), a frequency value is applied to the selected word and the word ordered first by the linguistics model in the linguistics database for that key sequence. The frequency value of the nexted word will become greater than the frequency value of the first displayed word upon repeated nexting to the same word. Subsequent user entries of the key sequence for the nexted word and the first ordered word will result in displaying the nexted word before the word ordered first by the linguistics model.

Title: Method for supporting a number of checksum algorithms in a network node
Inventor: TUEXEN MICHAEL
IPC: H04L69/40
Filed: 2002-05-06
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for supporting a number of checksum algorithms in a first network node (A) according to which a communications relationship between the first network node (A) and a second network node (B ) is established whose initialization ensues via the first network node (A). A first checksum algorithm is selected by the first network node (A) in a firs t step. In a second step, the selected checksum algorithm is signaled to the second network node (B) via the first network node (A). In a third step, the communications relationship is established while using the selected checksum algorithm in the event that the initialization of the communications relationship with the selected checksum algorithm is accepted by the second network node (B) or in the third step, another checksum algorithm is selecte d by the first network node (A) in the event that the initialization of the communications relationship with the selected checksum algorithm is refused or ignored by the second network node (B), whereby the second and third steps a re then repeated with the newly selected checksum algorithm.

Title: High speed former head
Inventor: THORDAHL JENS ERIK
IPC: D04H1/736
Filed: 2002-08-20
Abstract: It is the purpose of the invention to indicate a former head (2) for dry forming fibrous tissue, where a fibre material mixed with air is introduced to at least one rotating drum (4) in a former head by injection, where the drum (4) is provided internally with means (6, 16, 18, 20) for fluidising the fibres injected. By the invention is achieved a higher production capacity and simultaneously an increased distribution quality of the fibres. Thus it is possible to have a former head (2) with high capacity and an increased width, preferably over four meters. The known problems with natural oscillations in the needle rollers are avoided in that they are substituted by so-called slotted air nozzles (6). The slotted air nozzles (6) extend along the drum (4) in the whole length and are provided with adjustable (20) nozzle lips (18) in order to regulate the amount of air and direction of the air flow blown through the perforations of the drum. Hereby is achieved the surprising effect that the capacity of the former head is markedly higher compared with the prior art, and that the distributing quality also is markedly better than by high-speed operation of traditional machines.

Title: Method and apparatus for the recovery of bodies towed from moving vehicles
Inventor: JORDAN JAMES J
IPC: H01Q1/30
Filed: 2002-10-10
Abstract: Recovery of a towed body, in one embodiment in the form of a decoy which is initially stowed in a receptacle or canister and which is allowed to pay out behind an aircraft on a towing cable wrapped around a spindle, is accomplished by snaring or lassoing a portion of the towing cable and by dragging it to a further spindle which is driven so as to cause the lasso and a portion of the towing cable to wind up around the driven spindle. When a sufficient amount of the cable is wound around the driven spindle, the cable end secured to the canister is severed to allow all of the rest of the towing cable to be wound up. In one embodiment, a telescoping saddle or docking cradle is provided which extends from the canister to receive the retracted towed body so that it may be secured to the moving vehicle from whence it can be recovered, refurbished, and redeployed.
