Patent CA-2511939-A1 (CA)
Inventor: PANATTONI CORY M
IPC: C07K1/26
Filed: 2004-01-16
Abstract: In pre-cast slab gel cassettes, the formation of pathways in which proteins can migrate between the gel and the walls of the cassette to form shadow bands is avoided by including a nonionic amphiphilic polymer in the monomer solution from which the gel is formed and casting the gel with the polymer included.  The nonionic amphiphilic polymer also prevents the resulting gel from sticking to the walls when the gel is to be removed from the cassette after electrophoresis.

Patent CA-2514470-A1 (CA)
Inventor: KUSHLER CLIFFORD A
IPC: G06F3/033
Filed: 2004-01-16
Abstract: Many portable electronic devices are designed to utilize only a touch-screen for text input, generally using some form of stylus to contact the screen.  Such devices generally input text using some form of handwriting recognition, which is slow and often inaccurate, or an on-screen keyboard, which essentially requires the user to perform "one-finger" typing, often on a reduced-size keyboard. The Continuous Stroke Word-Based Text Input System allows someone to use a small on-screen keyboard to quickly enter words by drawing a continuous line that passes through or near the keys of each letter in a word in sequence without lifting the stylus (similar to a children's connect-the-dots drawing). The user traces an input pattern for a word by contacting the keyboard on or near the key of the first letter of the word, then tracing through each letter in sequence, lifting the stylus from the screen upon reaching the last letter. In one preferred embodiment, the user traces a small circle around each double-letter that occurs in the word to reduce ambiguity. In another preferred embodiment, a database of words is organized according to the first and last letters so that only a small number of words need to be explicitly scored for each input pattern. In another preferred embodiment, the expected path length corresponding to each word is stored in the database and is compared to the actual input path length entered to further limit the number of words to be explicitly scored. The input pattern is analyzed to identify inflection points of various types, each of which has a greater or lesser probability of corresponding to a letter of the word being input. Words are scored according to the average distance from each letter to the nearest inflection point (or to the nearest point of the traced line if there are more letters in the word than detected inflection points in the input pattern), where each such distance is weighted according to the probability associated with the type of the inflection point from which the distance is measured. In one preferred embodiment, the average weighted distance for a word is further weighted by the frequency of use associated with the word. The method of the present invention enables the system to analyze each input stroke pattern and present one or more corresponding words for selection by the user, wherein the default word match (deemed the most probable match by the system) is automatically output by the system unless the user explicitly selects an alternate word choice.

Title: Method for producing parts having a compact polyurethane (pur) sealing layer
Inventor: RENKL JOSEF
IPC: B29C31/06
Filed: 2004-03-04
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing structures having a compact polyurethane (PUR) sealing layer, particularly for clear coat molding PUR in order to produce a transparent PUR sealing layer on a veneer composite. The structure is placed inside a molding tool inside of which, when closed, a gap exists between the surface of the structure to be coated and the mold inner wall opposite the surface. The components polyol and isocyanate of the compact PUR, optionally provided with additives, are injected via a mixing head and a runner into the molding tool holding the structure. The invention is characterized in that the supply of components is terminated when a predefined pressure P<SUB>ab </SUB>(shutoff pressure) in the supply of components and/or in the flow path of the PUR mixture has been reached. This ensures that regardless of fluctuations inside the cavity due to different volumes of the structures, this cavity is always completely filled, and the same pressure is always exerted upon the structure, particularly upon the veneer layer.
