Patent CA-2156748-C (CA)
Inventor: TATTRIE DONALD
IPC: A01M23/34
Filed: 1995-08-25
Granted: 1997-11-04
Abstract: A trap is of the power snare type for trapping fur-bearing animals, including large predators. The trap has a base arm and a snare arm as integral extensions of a torsion coil spring. The base arm is supported on the ground using a support assembly. A trigger connected to the support assembly engages the snare arm to hold it in a set position against the bias of the spring. The snare arm has an outer section that slopes upwardly across an animal trail so that the main part of this trap can be set to the sideof the trail and a snare carried by the snare arm positioned across the trail. The free end of the snare is connected to the trigger so that the trap will be triggered by an animal engaging its head in the snare. Traps of this construction may also be used as tip-ups for fishing.

Title: Neon fluorescent lamp and method of operating
Inventor: JENNATO SCOTT D
IPC: H01J61/35
Filed: 1995-08-30
Granted: 2003-08-19
Abstract: A nearly pure neon is described along with a method of operating the lamp.  A phosphor is coated on the lamp wall. By properly stimulating the neon, ultraviolet light may be emitted, that can stimulate the phosphor to a first light emission.  The lamp may then be operated to produce a visible light emission that is the result of neon emission or of intermediate combinations of the neon and phosphor emissions.  A single neon lamp may then produce in one instance, an amber color, or in other instance, a red color without the cold environment problems typical of a mercury based lamp.  The output efficiency is enhanced when the lamp is formed as an aperture lamp.  The narrow source is also useful as a source in reflector and lens systems.  High pressure neon lamps offer a small source size, direct color with no filtering, good tolerance of impact and jarring, moderate cost, and increased vehicle styling potential.

Inventor: CASSEL SCOTT T
IPC: F16L21/06
Filed: 1995-12-19
Granted: 1999-07-20
Abstract: A pipe lap joint is disclosed with an improved sealing zone and which comprises a pair of end-to-end intersecting slots in the outer pipe which allow the sealing zone to be collapsed against the inner pipe by a band clamp around the outer pipe. The outboard slot extends inwardly from the end of the pipe and the inboard slot is circumferentially offset and extends inwardly from the outboard slot. A frangible bridging segment of the wall of the pipe extends between the adjacent walls of the two slots and is deformed or fractured and maintains isolation between the slots when the pipe is collapsed. To facilitate collapse of the outer pipe, the length of the inboard slot is maximized for increased leverage of the clamping force.

Abstract: Method of masking one or more extremities of a cylinder bore from internal thermal spraying, when using a rotary gun inserted from one end of the bore, by essentially the steps of: (a) supporting one or more inflatable mask members adjacent an end of the bore wall; (b) pressurizing the inflatable mask member to expand and annularly engage an end of the bore, the mask being constituted of an inflatable and collapsible air tight bag of heat resistant (fiberglass) cloth coated on opposite sides with a sacrificial heat resistant non-stick coating (silicone). The inflatable characteristic of the mask member allows it to conform to the periphery of the cylinder bore extremities, and allows it to be easily installed in or through the component in its deflated condition. The mask is reusable by being comprised of coating material that may gradually be sacrificed to heat and wear of the over spray.

Granted: 2002-11-12
Abstract: A device and method which operates as an artificial labyrinth to eliminate sensory mismatch between the natural labyrinth/vestibular system and the vision system of an individual. The present invention provides an alternative means for the user to determine the true orientation of his body with respect to the surrounding environment. The method can be effected by means of a device which senses true body orientation and displays corresponding visual orientation cues that the brain can use to confirm other visual position information. The display can be projected into space in front of the user, directly onto the user's retina, or effected by pictorial scene averaging. The device is particularly useful in the rehabilitation treatment of persons suffering from vestibular nervous system defect or damage, and in providing relief to those suffering from the symptoms of nausea and/or vertigo which are often experienced as a result of the aforementioned sensory mismatch.

Granted: 2002-12-31
Abstract: In setting the initial offering price of a financial instrument for purposes of securities trading, or in later revaluation as economic factors, such as interest rates, may change, an estimate of the value of the instrument may be represented as a multi-dimensional integral. For evaluation of the integral, numerical integration is preferred with the integrand being sampled at deterministic points having a low-discrepancy property. The technique produces approximate values at significant computational savings and with greater reliability as compared with the Monte-Carlo technique (11).

Abstract: A system design and the components incorporated therein for storing intelligence, control and accompanying data, general components for the control of the data flow of all components included in the system design as well as special components for the data flow and process control of interface systems for laser beam recorders (LBR). The system design enables a processing of intelligence, control and accompanying data independent of the physical music and data carriers within the premastering sector and the production of glass intermediate storage units (mastering area) by CD plants. All types of data are stored in on-line mass storage units and transferred automatically into the respective areas requesting the respective data by general data flow control components.      Requests for data can be produced manually or automatically.      Transfer times to the requesting areas or machines are shortened, the necessary premastering expenditures reduced, the mastering runs automated with aid of special control components and considerably shortened in time vis-à-vis conventional methods by the use of a network as carrier medium.

Granted: 2002-04-09
Abstract: For supplying yarns, a yarn supply apparatus is contemplated that is designed particularly for knitting machines whose yarn demand fluctuates greatly over time. The yarn supply apparatus has a rotor-driven yarn wheel, which in the ideal case furnishes yarn directly to the knitting machine or its yarn guides without the interposition of yarn storage devices. The yarn tension is monitored by means of a yarn tension sensor, which provides measured value detection for a closed-loop controller that controls the supply by the yarn wheel. The controller is also embodied such that it can process signals that contain information about the future yarn demand. Thus in the event of imminent drastic changes in demand, of the kind that in flatbed knitting machines periodically occur at the edges of the knitted goods (turning points of the yarn guide), the controller can react by presupplying yarn or by ceasing to supply yarn. Yarn tension spikes and overly steep yarn tension drops can thus be compensated for. The controller may be designed such that it functions as a closed-loop status controller and intermittently as an open-loop controller. Other provisions, such as disturbance variable compensation, parameter adaptation, or the like, are possible.
