Patent CA-2372010-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BERTOLAMI ILIO
IPC: B60R16/06
Filed: 2002-02-11
Abstract: Present grounding systems utilized in the auto, truck and other household and industrial applications simply attach the grounding wire by mechanical means to the metalic device being protected. Application in the mobile vehicle industry generally utilizes the mechanically attached ground-wire dragging on the ground, as the vehicle comes to a stop. The MAGNETIC-AUTO-STATIC-GROUNDING-WIRE system replaces the need for mechanical attachment by utilizing a permanent magnet as the attachment-contact. The benefit consists of ease of application, mobility, and more readily adapts to permanent or short-term applications.

Title: Point-of-use water treatment system
Inventor: CONRAD KENNETH E
IPC: C02F9/00
Filed: 2000-06-14
Abstract: The present invention is directed to a point-of-use water treatment system (WTS) unit (20) for filtering and treating contaminants in water. WTS  unit (20) may include a first primary coil (74) located in a base unit (22) which inductively power a secondary treatment device such as a UV lamp assembly (24).  A filter assembly (26) is used which has a filter block (90) and an inner sleeve (92) which extends inside filter block (90). Inner sleeve (92) defines a chamber in which the secondary treatment device (24) may be disposed. First and second valves and seals may be interposed between the filter assembly (26), secondary treatment device (24) and base unit (22) to allow the filter assembly (26) and secondary treatment device (24) to be independently replaceable. Secondary treatment device (24) may be a lamp assembly (24) which includes a condensing element (84) to condense mercury in a bulb in the arc path between filaments (444).  Maintaining the condensed mercury between filaments (444) serves to reduce the time needed for lamp assembly (24) to produce light emissions of a predetermined intensity upon subsequent energization as compared to allowing the mercury to condense outside the arc path. A reflector assembly (402) may be used in lamp assembly (24) to focus radiation upon conduits (80) carrying water therethrough and away from returning to a bulb assembly (82) from which the radiation was originally emitted. An outer enclosure or housing (400) surrounds the bulb and reflector assemblies (82, 402) such that lamp assembly (24) becomes a generally closed pressure vessel. Also, a light pipe (250) impregnated with a florescent dye may be used to convert UV light into visible light for ease of monitoring the light output intensity of lamp assembly (24). Light pipe (250) also serves as a filter to primarily emit light of a particular wavelength (green) while significantly inhibiting light transmission through light pipe (250) of other wavelengths.

Filed: 2000-05-04
Abstract: Un bouchon (40) muni d'un disque d'étanchéité est appliqué, plus particulièrement, vissé, sur l'ouverture d'un récipient (10). Le disque d'étanchéité est formé de plusieurs couches, les couches supérieures (24) restant dans le bouchon, lors d'une ouverture, et les couches inférieures (21, 22, 23) étant scellées sur l'ouverture du récipient. Les couches supérieures peuvent être utilisées pour refermer le récipient ; elles ne sont pas collées sur le bouchon fileté. Lorsque le récipient est ouvert pour la première fois, elles se détachent des couches inférieures et se soulèvent verticalement vers le haut, supprimant ainsi tout risque d'endommager la partie supérieure des couches inférieures.

Title: Method for selecting a ground station within an aeronautical telecommunication network
Inventor: BOREL MATTHIEU
IPC: H04W36/36
Filed: 2001-09-28
Abstract: The invention concerns the aeronautical telecommunication network ATN. More particularly, it concerns the selection of ground stations providing access to the ground ATN network, by an aircraft on mission. The method consists in providing the onboard router with a database concerning the ATN network containing a file of ground stations classified on the basis of the geographical position of the aircraft along its flight route prepared during the production of the flight plan and in providing a link between the onboard router and the aircraft navigation equipment, enabling the onboard router to know the position of the aircraft on the flight route and to use said position to select in the database the ground stations having the aircraft in their coverage zones, with a priority order determined by the company operating the aircraft. This accelerates the selection of a ground station to access the ATN ground network while leaving the choice under complete control of the operating company.
