Title: Automotive tufted carpet with enhanced acoustical properties
Inventor: THEISS KLAUS
IPC: B32B5/26
Filed: 2003-09-09
Granted: 2009-07-28
Abstract: An automotive tufted carpet with improved acoustic properties is formed with a two-part primary backing. The first backing layer is formed of a woven or non-woven or spunbond material, and the second backing or layer is formed of a microfilament spunlaced material possessing sound absorbing acoustic properties. The tufts of yarn are sewn through both parts of the primary backing which are then thermobonded together with an adhesive web positioned therebetween. The resulting acoustically enhanced automotive tufted carpet may be backcoated or precoated, and may have a secondary backing adhered thereto as a matter of choice.
Patent CA-2516965-C (CA)
Inventor: HELMOND GERARD
IPC: A47C1/022

Granted: 2014-04-22
Abstract: A chair adjustment mechanism has a pin retaining member (as, for example, a sleeve) with a slot having two laterally spaced pin receptors. Each receptor is partially defined by a peripheral wall of the slot and is further defined by a spring finger that projects along side of the peripheral wall. With this arrangement, a pin may be received through the slot and into a longitudinal slot of a second member (as, for example, a J- bar), which longitudinal slot defines a rack. The pin receptors may be positioned such that with the pin in a first of the pin receptors, it is engaged by the rack. In consequence, the pin retaining member may be moved upwardly with respect to the second member by notching the pin over teeth of the rack against the urging of the spring finger. The top of the longitudinal slot may have a cam surface to cam the pin into the second pin receptor such that the pin is now spaced from the rack. This releases the pin retaining member to be lowered with respect to the second member. The longitudinal slot may have a second cam surface proximate its bottom end to again cam the pin into the rack.

Title: A lever for a ring binder mechanism
Inventor: LIN CHUN H
IPC: B42F13/26
Filed: 2005-12-05
Granted: 2009-09-15
Abstract: A ring mechanism for retaining loose-leaf pages comprises a housing and ring members for holding loose-leaf pages that are moveable relative to the housing between an open and closed position. An actuation system moves the ring members and includes hinge plates pivotally mounted on the housing and a lever actuating pivoting movement of the hinge plates in at least one direction (e. g., moving the hinge plates and ring members to the open position). The lever is connected to a travel bar that moves lengthwise of the housing between a position blocking pivoting movement of the hinge plates and a position allowing pivoting movement of the hinge plates. At least one of the lever and the hinge plates deforms when the lever moves to delay pivoting movement of the hinge plates so that the lever may move the travel bar so that it does not block movement of the hinge plates.

Abstract: A data interface for transferring digital data between a host and a client over a communication path using packet structures linked together to form a communication protocol for communicating a pre-selected set of digital control and presentation data. The signal protocol is used by link controllers configured to generate, transmit, and receive packets forming the communications protocol, and to form digital data into one or more types of data packets, with at least one residing in the host device and being coupled to the client through the communications path. The interface provides a cost-effective, low power, bi-directional, high-speed data transfer mechanism over a short-range "serial" type data link, which lends itself to implementation with miniature connectors and thin flexible cables which are especially useful in connecting display elements such as wearable micro-displays to portable computers and wireless communication devices.
