Patent CA-2286345-C (CA)
Inventor: CULROSS CLAUDE C
IPC: C07C9/14
Filed: 1998-04-20
Granted: 2006-12-12
Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé d'élaboration d'un catalyseur convenant à la conduite de réactions de conversion de monoxyde de carbone, et notamment un catalyseur Fischer-Tropsch. L'invention concerne également, d'une part un catalyseur permettant de conduire de telles réactions, et notamment les réactions de Fischer-Tropsch, et d'autre part la composition obtenue grâce à ce procédé. Pour l'élaboration du catalyseur, on utilise une solution glucidique ou de sucre, essentiellement de monosaccharide ou de disaccharide, plus particulièrement de sucrose, pour imprégner et disperser un composé ou un sel d'au moins un métal catalytique tel que le cuivre ou un métal du Groupe du Fer tel que le fer, le cobalt ou le nickel, ou selon une réalisation préférée, aussi bien un composé ou un sel de rhénium qu'un composé ou sel d'au moins un métal catalytique tel que le cuivre ou un métal du Groupe du Fer tel que le fer, le cobalt ou le nickel sur un support oxyde inorganique réfractaire tel que le dioxyde de titane. Le rhénium, lorsqu'il est présent uniquement en petite quantité, permet une réduction totale et complète des métaux catalytiques dispersés par le glucide. Il est ainsi possible de réaliser des catalyseurs plus actifs pour une charge en rhénium inférieure que ce n'était le cas selon l'état antérieur de la technique où il fallait des concentrations plus élevées en rhénium, non seulement pour disperser effectivement les métaux catalytiques, mais encore pour les réduire pendant la préparation. En fait, il suffit maintenant d'un dixième de la quantité antérieure de rhénium pour obtenir le démarrage de la réduction lorsqu'on fait la dispersion avec le glucide.

Granted: 2003-11-11
Abstract: A method and system for utilizing resources according to a novel computing architecture are provided, including an operational environment for denizen processes (100) and a way for denizens (100) to travel between locations. A  denizen process (100) is capable of receiving instructions (300), evaluating different locations in the operational environment in view of the received instructions (302, 304), selecting a location based on that evaluation (306), moving itself to the selected location (314), and executing a portion of the received instructions at the selected location (316). To avoid distributing viruses and to reduce bandwidth requirements, denizens (100) can move by specifying information for building a denizen (100) by using code stored in a library at the destination location. The denizen (100) is also capable of reproducing and archiving itself (318), of detecting an error in itself, and of attempting to replace itself with an archived copy of itself or attempting to rebuild itself from library components. In addition, the denizen (100) is capable of modifying itself by dynamically loading and unloading code.  Denizens (100) can flexibly allocate processors because each denizen (100) can individually decide where it should execute. Application areas for employing the novel architecture include database management and natural language translation.

Title: Exercise device and kit
Inventor: WINSTON EDITH
IPC: A63B21/06
Filed: 2000-06-02
Granted: 2007-10-09
Abstract: A handle for use with an elastomeric tube in a resistance exercise device is generally U-shaped with a grip removably secured between opposite ends of the handle. A frusto-conical throat is defined through the nadir of the U- shape and receives one end of the tube. A retainer ball of greater diameter than the tube is inserted into one diametrically stretched end of the tube. The diameter of the retainer ball is smaller than the large diameter proximal end of the throat but greater than the small diameter distal end of the throat. With the end of the tube stretched about the retainer ball, the ball compresses the tube wall against the frusto-conical throat wall with a force that increases as the tension in the tube increases (i.e., as the tube is pulled distally). As a result, the tube is prevented from becoming loose and becoming disengaged from the handle during use. Alternatively, a collar may be disposed about the tube distally of the retainer ball to prevent the retainer ball and surrounding tube portion from distally traversing the throat, thereby securing the tube to the handle. In yet another manner, the throat may include various configurations to provide a fitted engagement with the retainer ball and surrounding tube portions. The handle structure is preferably sold as part of a kit, and can be modified so that a second weighted bar, parallel to the weighted grip, can be removably connected between the arms of the U--shaped handle.

Abstract: If the strength of the signal transmitted from a remaining base station is larger than that from the active base station, the search control unit 103 shifts to the confirmation mode, where the remaining base station is designated as a confirmation target remaining base station.  Then, if the strength of the signal transmitted from the confirmation target remaining base station is larger than that from the active base station, a counter is incremented.  If the counter value becomes a predetermined value R, a hand-off is performed to the remaining base station. In case that the strength of the signal transmitted from the confirmation target remaining base station becomes not larger than that from the active base station, the confirmation mode is terminated at that point to return to the normal mode.

Abstract: Grâce à des techniques connues, il est possible, lorsque différents minéraux sont séparés du minerai par flottation, de surveiller une grande partie de la couche écumeuse supérieure dans la cellule de flottation, à l'aide d'une caméra dont les signaux sont analysés dans un ordinateur numérique, afin de détecter la structure et la couleur de la mousse. Le procédé et l'appareil selon l'invention permettent de diriger et de limiter la surveillance et l'analyse de la surface de la matière flottante à l'intérieur d'une bande étroite fixe qui est parallèle au seuil de débordement de la cellule et à l'intérieur de laquelle la surface de la matière passant à travers cette bande est homogène à l'état immobile. Ladite bande présente un échantillon de renouvellement de la surface à l'endroit en question, lequel échantillon représente l'état immobile dans le sens général. La bande est soumise à un éclairage homogène, qui peut atteindre la bande selon différents angles, en fonction de l'objet primaire, autrement dit, si la couleur ou la structure est en cours de détermination.  l'aide d'une caméra à matrice linéaire de semi-conducteurs lisant de façon répétitive, on obtient l'image de la bande, laquelle est ensuite convertie en signaux électriques en noir et blanc ou en couleurs, à partir desquels la structure ou les quantités de couleur sont déterminées dans l'ordinateur numérique. La surveillance et l'analyse peuvent porter sur la surface de la couche écumeuse et sur la surface de la bouillie écumeuse s'écoulant du seuil de débordement.
