Patent CA-2662225-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SWALLA DANA RAY
IPC: C25B9/19
Filed: 2009-04-09
Abstract: The present techniques provide systems and methods for assembling electrolyzers (66) from parts which have internal structures that form fluid flow channels (34, 35, 60, 64) when placed adjacent to one another. In a contemplated embodiment, the assembly technique may use alignment bars (98, 100), inserted through openings in the individual parts to hold the parts in alignment, while other structures apply pressure to hold the structure together. In another contemplated embodiment, the parts may be aligned by having ridges, or other protrusions (102), formed on the parts that mate with openings on adjacent parts. The applied pressure seals fluid flow channels (34, 35, 60, 64) formed in the electrolyzer (66) and extending through the joined parts. The use of pressure to hold the structure together allows for the servicing and replacement of individual parts.

IPC: A47C27/14
Filed: 2008-02-04
Abstract: A cushion comprising an array of individual suspension elements arranged in a pattern wherein one embodiment the longitudinal axis of each suspension element in the array is positioned at a right angle or parallel to the longitudinal axes of the adjacent suspension elements. Each suspension element has a displaceable load-bearing surface, a first end wall, a second end wall, and an optional bottom wall, with load-bearing surface and recited walls defining an inner chamber. The material thickness of the load-bearing surface generally is greater than the material thickness of the end walls whereby the end walls deflect outwardly toward the load-bearing surfaces of adjacent support elements under load. The load-bearing surface can have a substantially arch-shaped, elliptical or rectangular cross-section and may be constructed from different materials to make a composite suspension element. The bottom wall of the suspension element may have a small vent opening of a predetermined size to allow a controlled release of air from the inner chamber under load to enhance the viscous feel of the cushion. The cushion also includes a cover enclosing the array of suspension elements.

Abstract: Tools and techniques allow visual media to be edited by superimposing a parameter adjusting mechanism on the visual media itself and adjusting parameter settings based on user input detected by the parameter adjusting mechanism. In a visual media editing application, the parameter adjusting mechanism is superimposed on visual media so that the user can keep his eyes on the visual media and so that the visual media itself is unobscured by other user interface controls and windows as the user edits it. The user sets control points on the visual media that act as a fixed reference points for subsequent user input. The parameter adjusting mechanism detects subsequent user input calculates new parameter settings based on that input.

Title: A game for teaching the fundamentals of music theory
Inventor: BANDURINA TATIANA
IPC: A63F3/00
Filed: 2009-08-25
Abstract: A game and a method of playing a game are provided that teach the concepts necessary for understanding and mastering the fundamentals of elementary music theory and/or harmony, including building of intervals, triads, seventh and ninth chords and their inversions, and practicing the circle of fifths. In one embodiment, the game comprises a game board that has eight piano keyboards, divided into two sets of four keyboards by a black dividing line, with one set facing in one direction and the second set turned 180° so that it is facing away from the other set. The different keyboards are associated with different keys, in accordance with the circle of fifths. Furthermore, different musical clefs can be used. The game also comprises a set of note-chips to be used to build intervals, triads, seventh and ninth chords and their inversions on the keyboards. The chords that are built are rewarded point cards if built correctly and each chord is recorded on individual cards using note symbols on a staff. The number of moves allowed by a player on his or her turn is determined by a random number generator cube. The object of the game is to successfully move all the note-chips along the eight keyboards to the end of the game field and to collect as many points by building chords. A maximum number of four can play the game simultaneously. The difficulty level of the game can also be changed by the players.

Title: Handling user-interface gestures in non-rectangular regions
Inventor: GUTZ STEVEN J E
IPC: G06F9/44
Filed: 2009-12-03
Abstract: A method for handling user-interface gestures in non-rectangular regions of a graphical user interface includes creating a class comprising an event handler for an onmouseover event and an event handler for an onmouseout event. The method further includes adding each of a group of graphical elements to the class. Adding a graphical element to the class includes adding a reference to the graphical element to the class and attaching the event handlers to the graphical element. The method then identifies a specific graphical element in the group that triggered an invocation of one of the event handlers. The method then determines the closest border of the specific graphical element to the mouse pointer. In the event another graphical element in the group shares the closest border, the method stops either the onmouseover or onmouseout event from propagating. A  corresponding apparatus and computer program product are also disclosed.

Title: Staggered pilot transmission for channel estimation and time tracking
Inventor: VIJAYAN RAJIV
IPC: H04B7/204
Filed: 2005-04-25
Abstract: To allow a receiving entity to derive a longer channel estimate while limiting overhead, a transmitting entity transmits a pilot on different groups of subbands in different time intervals. N subbands in the system are arranged into M nonoverlapping groups. Each group includes subbands that are uniformly distributed across the N subbands. The transmitting entity transmits the pilot on a different subband group in each time interval, and selects all M subband groups in M time intervals based on a pilot staggering pattern. The receiving entity derives (1) an initial impulse response estimate with P channel taps based on the pilot received on one subband group and (2) two longer impulse response estimates with different lengths used for data detection and time tracking.; Each longer impulse response estimate may be derived by filtering initial impulse response estimates for a sufficient number of subband groups using a time-domain filter.

Inventor: WANG TIEN-SHOE
IPC: A61M5/145
Filed: 2009-01-23
Abstract: A volume of fluid moved by a pump, such as a pump in an APD system, may be determined without direct measurement of the fluid, such as by flow meter, weight, etc. For example, a volume of a pump chamber (181) (having a movable element that varies the volume of the pump chamber) may be determined by measuring pressure in the pump chamber and a reference chamber, both while the two chambers are isolated from each other, and after the two chambers are fluidly connected so that pressures in the chambers may equalize. Equalization of the pressures may be assumed to occur in an adiabatic way, e.g., a mathematical model of the system that is based on an adiabatic pressure equalization process may be used to determine the pump chamber volume. In one embodiment, pressures measured after the chambers are fluidly connected may be measured at a time before complete pressure equalization has occurred, and thus the pressures for the pump and reference chambers measured after the chambers are fluidly connected may be unequal, yet still be used to determine the pump chamber volume.
