Title: Muffler assembly with balanced chamber and method
Inventor: FLUGGER RAY T
IPC: F02B27/04
Filed: 1993-06-08
Abstract: A compact, high performance exhaust assembly (50) for an internal combustion engine (20) or the like having a balanced chamber (52). Two substantially parallel inlet exhaust pipes (38, 40) are mounted to a first wall (74) of the chamber (52) and are axially aligned with, but independent of, two output exhaust pipes (54, 56) similarly mounted to an opposing second wall (76) of the chamber (52). Exhaust gas is discharged through the inlet pipes (38, 40), preferably in an out-of-phase relationship or alternating from one inlet pipe to the other. The exhaust gas passes a short distance through the chamber (52) and out of aligned outlet pipes (54, 56). The majority of the exhaust gas flows directly through the chamber (52) without significant expansion. The exhaust assembly (50) increases the power output of the engine.
Patent CA-2140843-A1 (CA)
Title: Soldering apparatus
Inventor: SUND WILLIAM
IPC: B23K1/008
Filed: 1995-01-12
Abstract: ABSTRACT     This invention provides an improved wave soldering apparatus that protects the molten solder and the components being soldered from exposure to ambient air while the solder is in a liquid condition. At the soldering station, which is enclosed in a controlled atmosphere chamber, all the liquid solder, pumps and other elements exposed to liquid solder are enclosed within the chamber. This eliminates the formation of dross which interferes with the soldering process and also with the operation of the solder pumps. The inlet and outlet paths from the chamber, through which the components pass, are extended both to exclude ambient air and to permit the components to cool in a controlled atmosphere.

Patent CA-2143298-A1 (CA)
Title: Snow sensor
Inventor: RUTKIEWICZ ROBERT D
IPC: G01W1/14
Filed: 1993-08-30
Abstract: The snow sensor utilizes a single temperature sensor and heating element in thermal contact with the sensing surface. The signal from the temperature sensor and the signal from the heating element are input to a standard microprocessor integrated circuit.  The microprocessor continuously compares the two signals to accurately assess whether snow is present on the sensing surface.  The snow sensor eliminates the requirement for a moving airmass to acurately assess the presence of snow on the sensing surface.  The snow sensor does not ingest snow nor require ice formation to operate. The snow sensing surface and the sensor housing are weather and debris resistant.  The snow sensor may be mounted in an elevated position or in any suitable location proximate an area to be monitored.  The snow sensor of the present invention serves as an integral part of a closed loop control system for numerous snow removal applications.

Title: Dynamic browser system
Inventor: MCINERNEY PETER J
IPC: G06F9/44
Filed: 1994-01-03
Abstract: A human oriented object programming system provides an interactive and dynamic navigation process to assist in the incremental building of computer programs which facilitates the development of complex computer programs such as operating systems and large applications with graphic user interfaces (GUIs). The program is modeled as a collection of units called components. A component represents a single compilable language element such as a class or a function. The three major functionality are the database, the compiler and the build mechanism. The database stores the components and properties. The compiler along with compiling the source code of a property, is responsible for calculating the dependencies associated with a component. The buiid mechanism uses properties of components along with the compiler generated dependencies to correctly and efficiently sequence the compilation of components during a build process.

Title: Method and apparatus for executing a distributed algorithm or service on a simple network management protocol based computer network
Inventor: KUMAR VIJAY P
IPC: H04L12/24
Filed: 1995-03-30
Abstract: The present invention is directed at both a method and an apparatus for executing a distributed algorithm or server in a Simple Network Management Protocol Version 1 (SNMPv1) based computer network. The invention involves configuring a peer arrangement of agent/manager nodes and encapsulating the algorithm or server into SNMPv1. In a peer configuration, each node acts as a manager node, the manager node sends a Get message to an agent node to read a certain location in an agent node's managed information base (MIB) and sends a Set message to an agent node to write to a certain location in an agent node's MIB. This peer configuration also provides that each node act as an agent node, the agent node sends a GetResponse message to a manager node in response to a Get message and sends a Trap message to a manager node in response to an event. Encapsulating ofthe algorithm or server within SNMPv1 involves mapping the proprietary protocol to the SNMPv1 messages and mapping the algorithm or server variables to certain locations in the MIB. When mapping the algorithm or server, algorithm command variables, placeholder variables, and data variables are assigned to certain locations within the MIB.

Inventor: GONZALEZ THERESA MAY LEONA
IPC: A63F9/04
Filed: 1995-11-17
Abstract: A clear acrylic tube with two circular pieces, both made of clear acrylic affixed at either end. One circular piece is permanently affixed to one end, so as to create a bottom on the tube, which the tube would be set down upon. The second circular piece is affixed by way of a clear acrylic hinge, attached to the outside of both the circular piece and the tube. The tube is fitted with an extra piece of clear acrylic in order to create a base upon which the hinge is affixed to the tube. The second circular piece is fitted with a lock, directly opposite the hinge which would lock the circular piece onto the tube, creating a lid. On the underside of the lid a circular piece of rubber, which is pre-molded into a raised pyramid-shaped design which is not a singular shape but rather contains numerous pyramid-shapes per 2.5 cm, is affixed.

Title: Apparatus for separating solid particles from a gas and for injecting the so-separated particles into a reaction vessel
Inventor: GRAVEL JEAN J O
IPC: C10J3/54
Filed: 1995-06-15
Abstract: An apparatus for separating solid particles contained  in  a  flow  of  gaseous  products  and  for injecting the separated particles into a reactor vessel.          This apparatus has a cyclone separator provided with a tangential entry port through which the flow of gaseous products is fed, an axial exhaust conduit through which the gaseous products fed into the separator exit from the same, a collection hopper in which fall the solid particles  separated  from  the  gaseous  products  by centrifugation and gravity within the separator, and a discharge conduit having an inlet within the collection hopper and an outlet opening into the reactor vessel.          It also has a gas injector for injecting a gas stream into the discharge conduit so as to cause the solid particles falling into the collection hopper to flow continuously out of the hopper through the discharge conduit and be fed into the reaction vessel in spite of any pressure differential that may exist between the collection hopper and the reactor vessel.        This apparatus is typically used in combination with and within a fluidized bed reactor for the gasification of carbona-ceous  solids.    The  incorporation  of  this apparatus  permits  to  achieve  a  high  efficiency  of separation as a result of a high velocity of entry of the gaseous products to the cyclone separator and the continuous  removal  of the solid particles  from the collection hopper of the cyclone separator through the discharge  conduit,  which  advantageously  penetrates deeply into the fluidized bed.
