Title: Air-conditioning system for airplane cabins
Inventor: SAUTERLEUTE ALFRED
IPC: B64D13/06
Filed: 2000-07-12
Abstract: An air-conditioning system in particular for aircraft is proposed wherein pressurized, moisture-containing air is conditioned for air-conditioning the cabin. The pressurized air is compressed further in two separate stages, dehumidified in a high-pressure water extraction cycle and subsequently expanded in one or two turbine stages. Depending on the design one can thereby achieve ice-free conditioned air or a high efficiency of the air-conditioning-system, in particular if two turbine stages are provided and the energy gained in the particular turbine stages is utilized regeneratively, distributed over the compressor stages.

Title: Method and apparatus for extracting plant resins
Inventor: DELP REINHARD C
IPC: B03B1/00
Filed: 1998-02-24
Abstract: An improved method and apparatus for extracting resin from plant material. Conventionally, plant resins, which are useful in many products, are extracted using chemical solvents, which may alter the extract, and may produce a byproduct or residue that may be unusable or problematic. The present invention overcomes these drawbacks by using cold water in a wash process to cause the resins to become brittle, while the remaining plant material becomes more flexible. Separation is accomplished using an extractor (10) having a washing chamber (12) with an open top (14) and a screen filter (16) disposed above a settling chamber (18). A collection bottle (24) is placed below a valve (22), and may include a filter (26) to separate resin particles from the solute. The washing chamber is first filled with cold water and then a quantity of plant material (P) is placed therein, followed by an ice layer (30). An agitator (32) is then actuated to mix the contents to separate the resins. The settled resin is thereafter captured by the filter (26) upon opening the valve (22).

IPC: B65G47/08
Filed: 1999-05-05
Abstract: Multiple receiving conveyors (12a, 12b) receive randomly spaced product from  a feeder conveyor (F) and form discrete lanes (20) for further processing. Upstanding wheels (16, 18) positioned between the receiving conveyors (12a, 12b) extend partially above the conveying surfaces. The outer periphery of t he wheel is tapered and a high friction, elastic band is provided along the peripheral apex (26). The wheels are rotated by a driver. Randomly spaced product being conveyed and contacting the rotating wheel is actively deflect ed onto one of the juxtaposed receiving conveyors (12a, 12b) to form the respective product lane. Upstanding outer wheels (18) are also positioned along the side of the outermost receiving conveyors for further assisting in  deflecting and guiding the product. Successive series of downstream wheels ensure that misaligned product passing a first series of wheels is ultimatel y deflected onto the adjacent conveyor to form the lane.

IPC: A23G4/20
Filed: 1998-06-05
Abstract: The present invention includes a method for producing a chewing gum with a modified release sweetener selected from the group of N-substituted derivatives of aspartame, particularly neotame, as well as the chewing gum so produced. The modified release neotame or other N-substituted derivative of aspartame sweetener is obtained by physically modifying the sweetener properties by coating and drying. Neotame or another N-substituted derivative of aspartame sweetener is coated by encapsulation, partially coated by agglomeration, entrapped by absorption or extrusion, or treated by multiple steps of encapsulation, agglomeration, absorption, or extrusion. The coated sweetener is then co-dried and particle sized to product a release-modified high-intensity sweetener. When incorporated into the chewing gum, these particles are adapted to enhance the shelf stability of the sweetener and/or produce a modified release when the gum is chewed.
Patent CA-2335994-A1 (CA)
Title: Request-and-respond approach to reducing latency within a tracking system
Inventor: PURSER MARK
IPC: G06F3/01
Filed: 1999-06-22
Abstract: A method of managing latency in a system for tracking movement of an object includes providing a request-and-response mechanism for transferring tracking data across a communication link. In one embodiment, the object for which movement is to be tracked is a human head and the system is a virtual reality system. Packets (34) of the tracking data may be generated using a conventional sensor processing (32) technology, but the packets are transferred via the communications link to an image processing capability (46), such as that of a host computer (26). The packets are generated at a fixed sample rate that is a synchronous with respect to the processing requirements of the host computer. When the host computer is available for fresh tracking data, a packet transfer request is transmitted to the packets to anticipate reception of a packet-transfer request. Thus, any incoming signal to the source is "prematurely" interpreted as a packet-transfer request. Appropriate actions are executed, if the interpretation is subsequently determined to be inaccurate. As a technique for reducing variability of latency, each transfer of a packet is preceded by a determination of whether to transmit a presently available packet or a next available packet. If a request is received momentarily before the next available packet is accessible, the presently available packet may be identified as "stale", and the next packet may be transmitted when available.

Patent CA-2337095-A1 (CA)
Inventor: FRISTENSKY BRIAN
IPC: A01N65/00
Filed: 1999-07-02
Abstract: To identify genes effective against the blackleg fungus Leptosphaeria maculans, we have transformed canola (Brassica napus with four pea (Pisum sativum) genes under constitutive control by the CaMV 35S promoter: PR10.1, chitinase, DRR206 and defensin. Transgenic lines containing single copy T-DNA  insertions for each gene were screened for both seedling (cotyledonary) and adult plant resistance. Lines for which pea DRR206 or defensin mRNA was expressed also showed decreased disease scores when inoculated with L.  maculans or Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, compared to non-expressing transgenic lines. For PR10 and chitinase transgenics, there was little or no enhancement of resistance. Furthermore, resistance to L. maculans co-segregated with DRR206 and defensin transgenes. Extracts from DRR206 and defensin transgenic plants inhibited fungal growth in-vitro. DRR206 transgenic plants also demonstrated decreased hyphal growth at inoculation sites, and evidence of a hypersensitive response.
