Title: Procede d'emballage de produits alimentaires perissables, et emballage utilise dans ce procede
Inventor: BUCHKO RAYMOND G
IPC: B65D81/20
Filed: 1998-01-12
Abstract: La présente invention concerne un système d'emballage de produits alimentaires périssables, lequel consiste à emballer à l'origine le produit alimentaire dans un réceptacle contenant une atmosphère de gaz inerte, et à sceller un film sur le réceptacle. L'atmosphère de gaz inerte empêche que le produit alimentaire se détériore lors de son expédition depuis une installation de traitement cntralisée. Le réceptacle comprend un rebord de scellement sur lequel le film est scellé. Avant de mettre le produit alimenataire à l'étalage d'un commerce de détail, on retire de l'emballage la patte et le film scellé sur celle-ci afin de former une ouverture entre le film et le réceptacle. On procède à une opération d'échange d'atmosphère en insérant une buse au travers de l'ouverture. Une fois l'opération d'échange d'atmosphère effectuée, on retire la buse de l'ouverture et l'on referme celle-ci en scellant le film sur le réceptacle. L'introduction du gaz contenant de l'oxygène dans la cavité du réceptacle provoque le "rougissement" dû à l'oxygène qui est recherché dans les produits de viande fraîche et remplace, dans les autres produits alimentaires, l'atmosphère de gaz inerte en vue de la mise à l'étalage et de la consommation du produit. Cet emballage permet d'augmenter dans une large mesure la durée de vie du produit et de réduire le gaspillage associé à la production et la distribution des produits alimentaires depuis une installation de traitement centralisée; il présente en outre, dans la configuration finale qui apparaît aux consommateurs, la même apparence extérieure que les emballages de l'état antérieur de la technique, ce qui lui permet de bénéficier d'une bonne acceptation de la part des consommateurs. La présente invention se rapporte également à un emballage et à un réceptacle utilisés dans la mise en oeuvre du procédé décrit ci-dessus.
Patent CA-2277192-A1 (CA)
Inventor: ROBL JAMES
IPC: A61K35/12
Filed: 1998-01-05
Abstract: An improved method of nuclear transfer involving the transplantation of donor differentiated cell nuclei into enucleated oocytes of the same species as the donor cell is provided. The resultant nuclear transfer units are useful for multiplication of genotypes and transgenic genotypes by the production of fetuses and offspring, and for production of isogenic CICM cells, including human isogenic embryonic or stem cells. Production of genetically engineered or transgenic mammalian embryos, fetuses and offspring is facilitated by the present method since the differentiated cell source of the donor nuclei can be genetically modified and clonally propagated.

Title: Modem with nonvolatile memory
Inventor: DE SOMER THIERRY
IPC: H04M11/06
Filed: 1999-09-03
Abstract: The modem is capable of operating according to a standard mode in which the modem allows an associated computer to communicate over a telecommunication network, or according to an autonomous mode in which one or more functions such as fax machine, answering machine, answering/recording machine, receiver of electronic messages and receiver of data files are implemented by the modem independently of the computer.      The data and/or voice messages received by the modem in autonomous mode are stored in a removable nonvolatile memory. These data and/or voice messages may then be consulted by withdrawing the removable nonvolatile memory from the modem and by inserting it into an appropriate adapter linked to the computer. The present invention makes it possible to avoid the serial transfer of the data stored in the modem to the computer.

Patent CA-2294835-A1 (CA)
Inventor: RITTER GERHARD
IPC: H04B7/26
Filed: 1998-06-17
Abstract: Un système de radiocommunication AMRT/AMDC met à disposition des canaux de fréquences formés par des créneaux temporels et par des plages de fréquences à large bande, canaux dans lesquels des informations de plusieurs liaisons entre des stations mobiles et une station de base peuvent être transmises même simultanément. Les informations de différentes liaisons peuvent être distinguées en fonction d'une structure fine spécifique de chaque liaison. Selon l'invention, des canaux de fréquences récurrents dans le sens descendant, sont mis à disposition des stations mobiles pour la synchronisation de fréquence, canaux dans lesquels une suite de symboles est transmise. La station mobile à synchroniser détermine, à partir des signaux reçus, des valeurs d'estimation de la suite de symboles et compare ces valeurs à une suite de comparaison. Il est ainsi possible de calculer le glissement de phase des valeurs d'estimation par rapport à la suite de comparaison. Ce glissement de phase permet de déterminer un décalage de fréquence qui sert à la synchronisation de fréquence.

Title: Sawdust collection hood for table saw
Inventor: JORGENSEN MATTHEW
IPC: B27G19/02
Filed: 2000-02-18
Abstract: A sawdust collection hood for a table saw. The hood has an identical pair of vertical, spaced-apart side panels, an upper cowl mounted between the side panels, a canted nose panel mounted between front portions of the side panels, and a lower cowl that extends rearwardly between the side panels below the upper cowl from a forward edge of the lower cowl disposed over a trailing edge of the nose panel. A pair of side skirts suspended from each of the side panels, extend rearwardly from the nose panel, and are movable between a raised and a lowered position. When placed upon the saw work table, straddling the saw blade, and with side skirts lowered, a work piece moved rearward against the canted nose panel causes the hood to rise. As the work piece progresses rearwardly past the saw blade, the side skirts remain lowered, resting on the work piece, until the work piece just clears the nose panel, whereupon the hood drops down to the work table, raising the skirts relative to the nose panel and closing a gap that would otherwise permit sawdust to escape below the front of the hood. The hood may be pivotally attached to a table saw splitter or, alternatively, may be pivotally attached by a collar joint to an overhead vacuum conduit assembly.
