Patent CA-2621599-A1 (CA)
Inventor: LABRECQUE NICOLAS
IPC: B60K7/00
Filed: 2008-02-19
Abstract: Electric in-wheel motors to date are made by installing a typical electric motor on a wheel. The said motor includes the stator, rotor and tire rim connected together by a sealed bearing. In this invention the motor bearing is eliminated and the stator and rotor are attached to separate rims: the rotor rim is sandwiched between the tire rim and the brake, and the stator rim is sandwiched between the suspension frame and the brake. In this way the installation and construction of the motor is simplified by using the existing bearing of the wheel. The stator, being the fixed part of the motor containing the coils is sealed separately from the rotor containing the magnets.   The motor is designed on an open and simple architecture that eliminates bearings, bearing seals, cooling liquid access thru the bearing core, and allows for a simple method of heat dissipation.

Patent CA-2632297-A1 (CA)
Inventor: LUKAS RENE
IPC: G01J3/10
Filed: 2008-05-26
Abstract: The methods according to the invention are based on the principle of a stepwise relative shift of corresponding measured-value blocks of a model and calibration spectrum where a correlation value is calculated for each shift step. A shift value is determined for each measured-value block at which the correlation value reaches an optimum. A value pair consisting of a position marker of the measured-value block and the associated shift value is determined for each measured-value block.  These value pairs represent the design points for fitting to a suitable assignment function. The coefficients obtained in this manner can be used directly as coefficients of a wavelength assignment or be combined with the coefficients of an existing first wavelength assignment in that they for example replace these coefficients or are offset against the coefficients of an existing first wavelength assignment.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for wireless error diagnosis and/or error correction and/or maintenance and/or preparation of the maintenance for a motor vehicle in which an inspection apparatus checks whether the vehicle has a technical fault and/or whether vehicle maintenance needs to be performed and/or whether the driver is requesting assistance, e.g. breakdown assistance by pushing a button. To improve known breakdown services, it is proposed that a state ascertainment apparatus ascertain what electrical and/or electronic components or what hardware and/or possibly what % associated software versions are available in the specific vehicle and/or what errors have occurred during operation of the vehicle and have been stored in the vehicle in the form of error data and/or what vehicle maintenance needs to be performed and what relevant maintenance data have been stored in the vehicle.  In line with the invention, only the driver is able to enable setup of a telecommunication link between a service facility external to the vehicle and a service interface inside the vehicle following an appropriate offer to the driver. The telecommunication link is used to transmit identification data for the relevant vehicle and/or the hardware information ascertained by the state ascertainment apparatus and/or possibly information about associated software versions to the service facility external to the vehicle.

Title: Phase contrast cone-beam ct imaging
Inventor: NING RUOLA
IPC: G01N23/20
Filed: 2007-02-27
Abstract: A cone beam CT imaging system incorporates the phase contrast in-line method, in which the phase coefficient rather than only the attenuation coefficient is used to reconstruct the image. Starting from the interference formula of in-line holography, the terms in the interference formula can be approximately expressed as a line integral that is the requirement for all CBCT algorithms. So, the CBCT reconstruction algorithms, such as the FDK algorithm, can be applied for the in-line holographic projections.
