Patent CA-2360277-A1 (CA)
Inventor: STONE DAVID BRADLEY
IPC: F16L3/12
Filed: 2001-10-06
Abstract: A tool developed to clip on the vertical-building members (ie: studs) to facilitate dispensing of electrical wire and plastic water lines as well as provide scaffold and workbench capabilities for those trades working in building construction prior to the wallboard installation stage.   "Stud Clips" technology was developed as a means to provide competitive advantages to the worker through increased safety, better work efficiency and less physical wear and tear on the worker.   Stud Clip anchors to vertical building members by fastening around the specific building members via preformed metal that slides horizontally and across on to the stud or build members and is then twisted forward to the 45 degree position which holds the tool in place via two side and end flaps as well as forward and/ or rear anchor teeth (preceding model type).   Once in place Stud Clip provides hooks for electrician's "roll bars";  dispensing rollers for plumber's plastic water lines; scaffold brackets for temporary required planking and workbenches to assist all workers with their day-to-day duties.

Title: Multi-rate real-time players
Inventor: BELLEY BENOIT
IPC: G11B27/34
Filed: 2001-12-18
Abstract: A method of optimising the scheduling of the drawing of graphical elements of a multi-player display (102) in an image processing environment. Each player (801 to 804) is capable of operating asynchronously and deriving its source from a different video, film or other image format. Draw commands from each player are combined into short sequences known as graphics requests (1002 to 1004). A scheduler (821) selects the next graphics request for rendering by a graphics thread (831) based on the requirement to minimise state changes within the graphics card (208) while meeting the due time requirement of the graphics request, that is dependent upon the frame rate.

Title: Static deaeration conditioner for processing of bitumen froth
Inventor: STRAND WILLIAM LESTER
IPC: C10G1/04
Filed: 2002-05-23
Abstract: Discloses apparatus and method to deaerate and condition bitumen froth obtained from a primary tar sands bitumen extraction process comprising a vessel containing a plurality of inclined plates, called a static deaeration conditioner. The inclined plates of the static deaeration conditioner are substantially equidistantly spaced from each other and are inclined at an angle to the horizontal. The plates form a corresponding plurality of channels there between for the froth to be deaerated to flow along. The declination angle is selected to obtain a gravity induced froth flow rate in the channel that exhibits a lamella effect near laminar flow characteristics, which promotes the creation of a water-enriched froth region near the lower plate of the channel. A braking pump can be provided on an outlet port of the vessel to control the rate of flow through the vessel of the froth to be deaerated and conditioned.

Patent CA-2390525-A1 (CA)
Inventor: FILTEAU MARTIN
IPC: A41D31/00
Filed: 2000-11-10
Abstract: A launderable and reusable, leak-proof, breathable fabric and, more specifically, a composite fabric comprised of a liquid absorptive layer and a liquid impervious but vapour permeable layer. Such fabric is useful in drawi ng fluids, such as bodily fluids, away from a source, such as the body, and retaining them within the absorptive layer while evaporation thereof takes place though the vapour permeable layer. This material consists of two juxtaposed layers. The inner layer has the characteristic of being liquid permeable so as to allow the body fluids to flow into it and be absorbed. Th e outer layer has the characteristic of being liquid impermeable but air or vapour permeable, so that the liquid absorbed in the inner layer does not strike through the outer layer. Because the body fluids can flow into the inner layer, the wearer does not experience a clammy feeling from the materi al next to the skin. The breathability of the outer layer also reduces wet feeling and will in fact allow some evaporation of liquid collected in the inner layer. The material provides the functions of absorbing or drawing min or quantities of bodily fluids away from the wearer yet is sufficiently thin an d comfortable to be inconspicuous. In addition, the resulting fabric material is capable of being laundered, isstain resistant, and substantially retains its  other properties after numerous cycles of use and washing. In general, the material comprises a fabric made from absorbent acetate fibers and possibly one or more other fibers such as polyester or nylon, to which is laminated o r adhered a liquid imperviousness but vapour permeable microporous polyurethan e film, to result in an substantially integral fabric material from which articles can be manufactured which can take advantage of the material's absorbent, launderable/reusable, leak-proof and breathable nature.
