Title: Burner flashback detection and system shutdown apparatus
Inventor: HARRIGILL WILLIAM T
IPC: F23K5/16
Filed: 2008-04-04
Abstract: A fuel-fired water heater is provided with a premixing type main burner and an associated pilot burner for igniting it. A specially designed protective system is operative to detect a flame flashback burning condition in the main burner and responsively shut down the water heater. In one embodiment thereof, the protective system uses main burner body heat to melt a portion of a fuel supply line connected to the pilot burner during a flame flashback condition in the main burner. Such melting responsively causes an associated fuel supply valve to close and terminate water heater operation. In a second protective system embodiment a normally closed pressure switch is opened, thereby shutting down the water heater, when the switch detects a pressure indicative of a flame flashback condition in the main burner.

Title: Document sorting apparatus with multiple-position wire divider members
Inventor: SMITH AARON W
IPC: B42F7/00
Filed: 2008-09-11
Abstract: A document sorting apparatus includes a base having a pair of parallel side rail members with apertures therein, the apertures distributed in a linear fashion along the length of the side rail members and each aperture in one of the side rail members aligned with a corresponding aperture in the opposite side rail member. Veins in the form of wire divider members are pivotally received in each pair of corresponding apertures. Segments of the wire divider members rest on a top surface of the side rail members when the wire divider member is in a rearwardly-inclined or forwardly-inclined position. The side rail members are provided with lateral extensions having ridges that secure the wire divider members in a vertical position by impeding the wire divider member from pivoting to inclined positions. The impedence of the ridges may be overcome with a deliberate application of force to the wire divider member.

Patent CA-2643172-A1 (CA)
Title: Multiple access coding using bent sequences for mobile radio communications
Inventor: DENT PAUL W
IPC: H04B1/707
Filed: 1995-08-11
Abstract: Information symbols spread using orthogonal or bi-orthogonal codewords are assigned a unique scramble mask that is taken from a set of scramble masks having selected correlation properties. The set of scramble masks is selected such that the correlation between the modulo-2 sum of two scramble masks with any codeword is a constant magnitude, independent of the codeword and the individual masks being compared. In one embodiment, when any two masks are summed using modulo-2 arithmetic, the Walsh transformation of that sum results in a maximally flat Walsh spectrum. For cellular radio telephone systems using subtractive CDMA  demodulation techniques, a two-tier ciphering system ensures security at the cellular system level by using a pseudorandomly generated code key to select one of the scramble masks common to all of the mobile stations in a particular cell. Also, privacy at the individual mobile subscriber level is ensured by using a pseudorandomly generated ciphering key to encipher individual information signals before the scrambling operation.
