Patent CA-2638098-A1 (CA)
Inventor: EWING BRENT JOHN
IPC: E06B3/70
Filed: 2008-07-18
Abstract: A hanging panel assembly utilises a core which is encompassed by a press fit material installed by the user generally without mechanical attachments. A series for further members are subsequently connected to the press fit material using a snap-lock type connection. A locking mechanism is used with the hanging panel assembly which utilises a longitudinal latch operated by a rotating handle.  An interference member dictates whether the longitudinal member may be moved. A disabling assembly moves the interference member out of engagement and allows the door to be opened from the inside without the necessity of inserting a key into the lock.

Title: Mirror element and method for manufacturing mirror element
Inventor: SHIMOKAWA FUSAO
IPC: G02B26/10
Filed: 2006-12-27
Abstract: A distance between the turning center of a mirror (230) and a leading edge of the mirror (230) along a direction horizontal to an electrode substrate (300) when the mirror (230) is in maximum turning is longer than a distance between a vertical line which is vertical to the horizontal direction and passes the turning center and electrodes (340a-340d) along the horizontal direction.  Thus, even when the mirror (230) turns and comes into contact with the electrode substrate (300), since there exists none of the electrodes (340a-340d) at such contact position, the mirror (230) and the electrodes (340a-340d) are prevented from being electrodeposited.

Patent CA-2675529-A1 (CA)
Inventor: IERFINO NICODEMO
IPC: H05B37/02
Filed: 2009-08-12
Abstract: A lamp dimmer suited for fluorescent and any other type of lights and/or lamps which controllably notches the alternative voltage cycle depending on the cycle programmed by the microcontroller. As the zero crossing point is sensed by solid state circuitry, one microcontroller senses the information and relays it to another microcontroller which has a progressive and non-interruptive control over the switching of the optocoupler. The notches are programmed with starting and ending points which can selectively notch the AC cycle in any position, giving the ultimate control over the amount of power delivered to the lamp. This type of control can be used to ultimately slice the timing of the North American 60Hz AC power cycle into steps within the millisecond region. A  infrared detector is used to sense the signals from any available infrared module which controls the timing delivered by the microcontroller. The sensor has a wide range of light spectrum giving access by any commercially available module control of this lamp dimmer. The sensor is separate from the control box, giving simple access to dimming functions by simple installation. Also, available is a stationary control for non-remote control.

Title: Superimposed composite channel filter
Inventor: PROCTOR JAMES A JR
IPC: H04B17/40
Filed: 2008-03-03
Abstract: Methods and systems are provided to generate digital coefficients for a filter. The generation of coefficients relies on a Fourier transformation of an impulse response in time domain that is zero padded, e.g., zeros are appended to an array corresponding to a sampled input signal of length M. A unit prototypical filter is generated through a frequency domain response of length NFFT = Ns+M-1, wherein NS is a sampling length of the incoming signal. The unit prototypical filter is then circularly shifted in order to generate a band pass filter centered at a desired frequency. Circularly shifted filters are point-to-point added to generate a set of composite digital coefficients to filter the incoming signal. The reference frequencies for the composite filter are extracted from a message received from one or more base stations associated with one or more service providers. The composite filter typically operates on a frequency repeater.
