Patent CA-2505494-A1 (CA)
Inventor: PAULO GERAIS DE CAMARGO RANGEL
IPC: F26B3/30
Filed: 2003-11-07
Abstract: Heat irradiation apparatus (1) defined in terms of the following: - Refractory flexible irradiation module (7) comprising stopping means which are high temperature resistant and avoid shadow zones and side losses of heat at the burning zone in the ceramic surface; - Employment of refractory flexible ceramic plates (15) having flexible pores which permit air/gas modulation, the flexible pores permit define the path of the air/gas mixture through the ceramic plate (15). When the flow pressure of mixture is reduced, part of the pore automatically close and the combustible mixture is conducted to the surface where the hot fibers are placed. The fibres keep the combustion active at the surface, multiplying IR heating effects. Ceramic plates (15) of the art tend to "swallow" the flame causing an inner burning and reducing the efficiency of the process and/or loss of the control of the flame and equipment explosion. - Sensors and measuring means are provided for monitoring all steps: Thermal sensor (14) - safety device applied in the lower face of each flexible fibrous ceramic module (15), more particularly fixed in the support screen of the ceramic plate (15) and extending to median line of such plate (15), for monitoring a possible heat flow inversion due to external factors which cause the "flame swallowing". The apparatus further comprises oxygen measuring means (23) and an ultraviolet flame detector (24).

Patent CA-2508701-A1 (CA)
Title: Adhesive label liner sheet modifications for retaining unneeded label sections on liner
Inventor: HODSDON JERRY G
IPC: G09F3/10
Filed: 2003-01-22
Abstract: One or more cuts (40) is provided in a label liner sheet (12) near the area of a cutout within the label, such as the center hole (30) in a CD label (20), in order to facilitate reliable separation of the cutout from the label and retention of the cutout (30) on the liner sheet (12) as the label (20) is peeled from the liner. The majority of the cut runs generally parallel to the cutout boundary (32) underneath the cutout (30), and the ends (45, 49) of the cut cross the boundary (32) at two separate boundary crossing points (43, 47) on either side of the portion of the cut running parallel to the boundary (32). The cut first causes a flap (58) to be created in the liner sheet (12) and partially lifted as the label (20) is beginning to be peeled away.  Thereafter, as the peel line passes the flap area, the cutout (30) experiences the full retentive strength of the label's pressure sensitive adhesive primarily at the two boundary crossings (43, 47), and the cutout (30) is pulled from the label (20) and retained on the liner sheet (12) as the adhesive force overcomes the cohesive force.

Title: Adjustable primary air supply for wood burning device
Inventor: MARCAKIS EMMANUEL
IPC: F24C1/14
Filed: 2005-06-28
Abstract: An adjustable primary air supply for wood burning device comprises at least one but preferably two thermostatic bimetal elements which, by bending with temperature variations, directly actuate a flap That opens and closes the air entry opening. Primary Air is the air used to control the bum rate and it is adjusted in order to achieve the desired bum rates and Secondary Air is the air used to complete the combustion and is not adjustable. Using these two sources of air, the invention consists of a device, which allows the primary air supply to remain open until proper burning is established. Therefore, when the temperature of the appliance rises, the combustion air gradually decreases to its preset value by having the primary air supply automatically shut oft as temperature increases. A higher temperature indicates that the wood is sufficiently hot to decompose into flammable gases, so only secondary air is required to continue the combustion process.

Title: System and method for hybrid minimum mean squared error matrix-pencil separation weights for blind source separation
Inventor: DISHMAN JOHN FITZGERALD
IPC: G10L21/028
Filed: 2004-03-23
Abstract: A technique for blind source separation (BSS~) of statistically independent signals (1001) with low signal-to-noise plus interference ratios under a narrowband assumption utilizing cumulants (1002)in conjunction with spectral estimation of the signal subspace (1007) to perform the blind separation (1005) is disclosed. The BSS technique utilizes a higher-order statistical method, specifically fourth-order cumulants (1002), with the generalized eigen analysis of a matrix-pencil (1003) to blindly separate a linear mixture of unknown, statistically independent, stationary narrowband signals (1001) at a low signal-to-noise plus interference ratio having the capability to separate signals in spatially and/or temporally correlated Gaussian noise. The disclosed BSS technique separates low-SNR co-channel sources for observations using an arbitrary un-calibrated sensor array (1001). The disclosed BSS  technique forms a separation matrix (1004) with hybrid matrix-pencil adaptive array weights (1003) that minimize the mean squared errors due to both interference emitters and Gaussian noise. The hybrid weights (1003) maximize the signal-to interference-plus noise ratio.

Patent CA-2535450-A1 (CA)
Inventor: FREITAG LUTZ
IPC: A61M16/00
Filed: 2004-07-23
Abstract: The invention relates to a method and an arrangement for respiratory support for a patient and an airway prosthesis. The spontaneous breathing of a patient is recorded with sensors and an additional amount of oxygen administered by means of a jet gas flow at the end of a lung inhalation process. Oxygen uptake on inhalation is thus improved. Where necessary the exhalation process of the patient can be retarded by a counter-current to prevent a collapse of the airways. The above manner of proceeding is achieved by means of an arrangement, comprising an oxygen pump (1) connected to an oxygen source and an airway prosthesis (2, 3), which may be connected by means of a catheter (5). The spontaneous breathing of the patient is recorded by means of sensors (8, 9), connected to a controller (12), for activating the oxygen pump. The airway prosthesis has a tubular nozzle body (6) with a connector (37) for the catheter, whereby two of the sensors are provided on the nozzle body. The airway prosthesis and the integrated or introduced jet catheter are of such a size that the patient may breathe and speak freely.
