Patent CA-2447053-C (CA)
Inventor: GRANT CHUCK
IPC: G05B19/19
Filed: 2002-05-10
Granted: 2006-03-14
Abstract: A diagnostic tool suite is made available to technicians (104) servicing equipment (102) at residential and business locations using a portable device (106) such as a PDA. The PDA runs a main engine (1200) that can execute diagnostic modules (112), with each diagnostic module corresponding to a particular appliance (102) or device that requires troubleshooting, repair, diagnosis, maintenance or installation. The diagnostic modules use a limited number of templates (1113) to define possible screen layouts for each screen displayed to the technician. Additionally, the diagnostic module includes a diagnostic flow definition file (1111) wherein each record corresponds to a screen displayed to a technician. The main engine (1200) uses the template information (1113) and the diagnostic flow definition records (1111) to fully define a screen (106) to display to a technician (104). In this way, an extensible, modular, non-specific diagnostic tool suite is available to a technician (104). To simplify creation of the diagnostic definition files (1111), a graphical user development tool (400) is provided that allows a non-skilled user to select a template definition, to be prompted for definitions of the fields in that template and to create the diagnostic definition file incorporating the user's input.

Abstract: In the MPEG-4 standard ISO/IEC 14496:2001 several audio objects that can be coded with different MPEG-4 format coding types can together form a composed audio system representing a single soundtrack from the several audio substreams. In a receiver the multiple audio objects are decoded separately, but not directly played back to a listener. Instead, transmitted instructions for mixdown are used to prepare a single soundtrack. Mixdown conflicts can occur in case the audio signals to be combined have different channel numbers or configurations. According to the invention an additional audio channel configuration node is used that tags the correct channel configuration information items to the decoded audio data streams to be presented. The invention enables the content provider to set the channel configuration in such a way that the presenter at receiver side can produce a correct channel presentation under all circumstances. An escape code value in the channel configuration data facilitates correct handling of not yet defined channel combinations.

Abstract: An undersea power generation apparatus (1) comprises two turbines (3) mounted side by side at either side of a support strut, each turbine (3) having a set of turbine blades which counter rotate. The apparatus (1) is pivotally interconnected at point (9) to a pair of mooring cables (7). The turbines (3) are positively buoyant such that in zero current they point vertically upwards. When the current flows in the direction shown by arrow A, the drag forces on turbines (3) and support strut cause the apparatus (1) to pivot about pivot point (9) and pitch over into the condition denoted by (10). When the tide begins to change direction, the magnitude of the water current flowing past the apparatus (1) decreases. Accordingly, the apparatus (1) will tend to float back into the vertical condition. Eventually, due to the effect of the tide, water will begin to flow in the direction shown by arrow B, and the apparatus (1) will pitch over into the position denoted by (12).

Abstract: The invention relates to an injection device for a syringe, comprising a syringe body, a cannula with a needle, a plunger with a plunger rod and an injection carriage for displacing the syringe body and the plunger. Said injection device comprises at least one actuating element that acts on the injection carriage to carry out the injection. The actuating element (120, 220, 320) co-operates with components, which withdraw the needle (108, 208, 308) from the injection site once the injection has been completed, using a return stroke (H3) that is applied to the injection carriage. A single, targeted, linear displacement inserts the needle to a defined depth, injects the medicament and, once the injection has been completed, produces the return stroke, which allows the needle to be withdrawn into the housing and thus from the injection site. Preferably, the injection device is equipped with additional components, which produce a delay (TV) between the completion of the injection (H2) and the start of the return stroke (H3).
