Title: Blowing agent composition and polymeric foam containing a normally-liquid hydrofluorocarbon and carbon dioxide
Inventor: DUFFY JOHN D
IPC: C08J9/14
Filed: 2001-11-29
Granted: 2009-09-29
Abstract: The present invention relates to blowing agent compositions for polymeric foams that contain carbon dioxide and a hydrofluorocarbon having a boiling point of 14~C or higher and lower than 120~C.

Patent CA-2433609-C (CA)
Inventor: RINGER JOHN DAVID
IPC: A01M7/00
Filed: 2003-06-26
Granted: 2009-06-16
Abstract: A sprayer switching control system includes toggle switch structure incorporated into the main control handle of the sprayer and toggling spray sections sequentially so that each section changes condition in turn as the switch structure is operated. A reset switch located adjacent the toggle switch structure is operable to reset all the sections to a preselected operating condition. A first switch toggles section condition sequentially in a first direction along the sprayer boom, while operating a second switch reverses the direction. Such toggle operation is simple and easy to learn, and can be implemented without removing the hand from the control handle. To accommodate special skip patterns and shut off unused boom sections, individual section control switches mounted away from the handle to avoid handle clutter permit selective disabling any one or more of the spray sections.

Abstract: Apparatus, and an associated method, for facilitating determination of whether database copies are in match with one another. A group hash is formed, associated with a group of data records of one of the database copies. The group hash is communicated, by way of a radio air interface, and the value of the group hash is compared with a corresponding value associated with a corresponding group of data records of the other database copy. If the values of the group hashes correspond, a determination is made that the groups of database records of the database are in match with one another. And, through communication of only a single group hash on the radio air interface, database correspondence of the group data records of the database copies are determined.
