Patent CA-2402694-A1 (CA)
Inventor: PRYMYCH DAVID HENRY
IPC: B67D7/32
Filed: 2002-09-10
Abstract: This invention provides an integrated fluid drip receptacle that prevents the dripping of fluids at line connections. One end of the receptacle attaches to the line that is used to transfer fluid from a storage tank, such as an oil storage tank, and the other end of the receptacle attaches to the line that is used to transfer fluid into a second container, such as a tank on an oil transport vehicle. The receptacle remains attached to both of these lines during fluid transfer.  After transfer of the fluid, the receptacle remains attached to the line from the storage tank but is disconnected from the other line. The receptacle collects fluid that leaks and drips from the lines and line connections. Because the receptacle is an integral component of the line from the storage tank, the fluid therein is emptied every time that transfer of fluid from the storage tank to the second container occurs. Therefore, the receptacle does not need to be emptied between fluid transfers, which provides for simplicity and ease of use. The receptacle of this invention is particularly useful in the oil industry, to prevent dripping of oil onto the ground, which causes environmental damage, from load lines and line connections after transfer of oil from the storage tank to the oil transport vehicle.

Inventor: CLAUSSE JULIEN
IPC: G06F40/143
Filed: 2000-05-10
Abstract: The invention concerns a method for representing, or publishing, and/or processing a structured data in a markup language such as XML, in any browser or application capable of reading Java. Thus, a Java applet, or programme, (or routine) located in the XML document along with the data takes as parameter said data and publishes it in accordance with the manner wished by its author. As a result, the browser or the application is no longer required to recognise an infinite number of tags to represent the data, but it just needs to be capable of reading Java. The data is therefore intelligent for it is self-publishing, and is furthermore capable of adaptation. Indeed, the publication of the data can be modified according to optimising, cultural, technological or even personal criteria, the data always remaining intrinsically the same. The invention also concerns an equipment for creating such self-publishing and adaptive documents intuitively.

Abstract: An abrasion tool that is selectively configurable for spin or random-orbit without the need for a reversible motor. The tool uses two collars, each having half of the desired offset and half of the counterweight. In spin mod e, the collars are rotated so that the counterweights and the offsets cancel ea ch other and the head is balanced and concentric. The sanding plate is coupled to the collars for maximum sanding. This allows coarse sanding with minimal vibrations. In the random-orbit mode, the rotating collar is rotated 180~so that the counterweights are aligned on one side of the axis of spin and the offsets are combined on the opposite side of the axis. The two collars are pinned to each other but not to the sanding plate. Means is provided for feeding water to the sanding head to assist in finishing those materials tha t benefit from wet grinding.
