Patent CA-2414070-A1 (CA)
Inventor: STROMBERG C BERTIL
IPC: D21C7/14
Filed: 2002-12-12
Abstract: A set of spaced apart screen assemblies are provided within a continuous kraft digester. Liquor is extracted from a first screen assembly of the set without recirculation of at least a portion of the extracted liquor into the digester above the first screen. In such a manner, the need for circulation flow below the first screen assembly of the set to the second screen assembly of the set is minimized, thereby also minimizing (if not eliminating entirely) the packing problems such flow may cause. The liquor extracted from the first screen assembly in the set could be reintroduced, however, into the digester at some other location in the cooking system (e.g., at a location just above the bottom screen). By employing the present invention, the distance between the first and second screen assemblies is greater than one digester diameter (D). In addition, the liquor discharge below the first screen assembly, to which the circulated liquor from the second screen assembly (plus added dilution liquor and heat, if desired) may be at a distance of less than one-half (1/2) of a digester diameter (D) below the first screen. A small upflow can thus be used to displace the liquor at the first screen assembly, with a relatively short upflow zone.      Multiple sets of such first and second screen assemblies may also be provided within the digester along with other conventional screen assemblies to effect desired internal liquor flows.

Title: Push advertising model using multiple digital streams
Inventor: DUREAU VINCENT
IPC: H04N7/173
Filed: 2000-10-18
Abstract: A method and mechanism for selecting and conveying ads in an interactive television system. An ad stream is conveyed concurrently with a broadcast programming stream in an interactive television system. The ad stream includes multiple streams of ads wherein each stream of ads includes multiple ads. An ad selector mechanism detects programming and ad requests. Requests may be indicated by a viewer, a receiver cue, or by an interactive application. Based on programming and ad selection data, a viewer profile is created which may be used to select targeted ads for display. In response to a detected request, the ad selector mechanism searches the ad stream for an ad to meet the request. An ad is selected according to a viewer profile or a particular viewer action. The selected ad may be used to meet the request by filling an unused avail or by providing further information to a viewer. A particular ad may appear in more than one of the multiple streams and at different start times. Additionally, a particular ad may appear multiple times in a single stream. The multiple appearances of a particular ad offers multiple possible start times for the ad.

Patent CA-2430651-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BEEBE DAVID J
IPC: B01L3/00
Filed: 2002-02-08
Abstract: A flow of liquids is carried out on a microscale utilizing surface effects to guide the liquid on flow paths to maintain laminar flow. No sidewall confining structure is required, minimizing resistance to flow and allowing laminar flow to be maintained at high flow rates. The guiding structure has flow guiding stripes formed on one or both of facing base and cover surfaces which are wettable by a selected liquid to direct the liquid from a source location to a destination location. The regions adjacent to the guiding stripes on the base and cover surfaces are non-wettable. The smooth interface between the gas and liquid along the flowing stream allows gas-liquid reactions to take place as a function of diffusion across the interface without mixing of the gas and liquid. Liquid-liquid flows may also be guided with such structures.

Filed: 2002-02-04
Abstract: A safety harness to be worn by a person includes a strap portion for exteding over a portion of the person's body to retain the person within the safety harness. At least a certion of the strap portion includes an outer shell of a high strength, flexible material. The otuer shell has a channel therein. The outer shell can, for example, have a tubular construction. The strap portion further includes a flexible inner member within the channel of the outer shell. The flexible inner member generally prevents the lateral edges of the strap portion from forming a sharp edge when under tension. In that regard, the lateral edges of the strap portion preferably remain blunted, arced or rounded rather than forming a sharp edge when the strap portion is under tension forces experiences in normal use of the safety harness. The rounded or blunted lateral edges of the strap portion of the present invetion reduce or eliminate the binding, pinching and chaffing common with currently available safety harness.
