Patent CA-2107458-A1 (CA)
Title: System for flexibly sorting particles
Inventor: CORIO MARK A
IPC: G01N15/14
Filed: 1992-04-03
Abstract: This invention relates to a method and apparatus for flexibly controlling sorting decisions for a flow cytometer or similar instrument at a purity vs. yield ratio of sorted particles, particularly at high event rates. The system monitors distances between sequential objects to determine if they are in close enough proximity to be within a single resolution unit of the sorting device. The "friend" or "foe" status of neighboring events is considered by this system in dealing with detected "coincident" events. The system operates on information of the desirability to sort the object, i.e. droplet, based upon the properties of the individual object. A storage and retrieval method is provided for making the information available at the time a sort operation based on a sorting logic condition is performed. Accordingly, an easily reconfigurable mode of operation control is provided to allow customized sorting strategies, based on the needs of individual applications or experiments. This system may be included as an integral part of a flow cytometer/cell sorter or similar instrument and may also be provided as an outboard module to such systems.

Patent CA-2118731-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BURGER THEODORE O
IPC: H04M1/82
Filed: 1994-03-10
Abstract: Telephone line status indication is improved by making measurements of the differential voltage across the Tip-Ring terminals of a telephone set (100). The telephone set is connected to a telephone line which is shared with other parallel-connected telephone sets. The measurement of differential line voltage is made each time the set changes state (i.e., between on-hook and off-hook). The maximum magnitude of one of the last three measurements is stored to represent the on-hook state, and is arithmetically averaged with the maximum magnitude of one of the last three stored for the off-hook state to create a reference voltage. The reference voltage is updated each time the telephone set changes state and is continually compared with the present differential line voltage to determine which one is larger. A light-emitting-diode (110) on the telephone set indicates that the telephone line is in use whenever the reference voltage exceeds the measured differential line voltage.

Then, while rotating the rotary blade (110) to generate a first water stream in the first amount of water, water is continuously introduced into the washing tank (100), so that the detergent is diluted in the first amount of water and that the washing tank (100) is filled with a second amount of water suitable for washing the washing object. Then, the washing object is introduced into the washing tank (100) with the second amount of water and then the washing object is washed by rotating the rotary blade (110) for generating a second water stream suitable for washing the washing object. The rotation time of the rotary blade (110) in the washing and rinsing steps is adjusted in accordance with the material of the washing object, so a water stream suitable for the washing object is generated in the washing and rinsing steps. A dry cleaning washing and silk washing courses can be simply performed at home without any damages to the laundry.

Patent CA-2137581-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SUE CHEN-YOUN
IPC: C08F279/00
Filed: 1994-12-08
Abstract: A method is provided for continuous mass polymerization of acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene type thermoplastics.  The method involves charging a liquid feed comprising a vinylidene aromatic monomer, an unsaturated vinyl nitrile monomer and a synthetic butadiene polymer dissolved therein into a grafting reactor to prereact the liquid mass to form grafted rubber continuous phase polymeric product.  The product from the grafting reactor is then charged to a phase inversion reactor where free rigid copolymer in monomer is the only continuous phase, and where dispersed particles of grafted rubber with occluded rigid copolymer and monomer are immediately formed from the product of the grafting reactor.  The second polymerization product, which is coming out from the phase inversion reactor, is then charged to a finishing reactor wherein the material is further polymerized to form a third polymerization product which then can be devolatilized to provide a final thermoplastic composition.  The process of the present invention provides unique capacity and flexibility in controlling and adjusting rubber grafting and rubber particle morphology.   Process conditions can be controlled to produce a high gloss or a low gloss resin product.
