Patent CA-2667599-A1 (CA)
Title: Pump jack pump-off control method and pump jack control apparatus
Inventor: TSURUTA TATSUMI
IPC: E21B21/08
Filed: 2007-10-04
Abstract: It is possible to provide a pump jack pump-off control method and a pump jack control device which can continuously perform production of an oil well without stopping the device due to an excessive load error or congealment of raw oil even when a pump-off is caused to lower speed and can prevent lowering of the yield. Upon detection of a pump-off condition, an excessive load alarm signal of the AC motor switches the pump jack to an intermittent operation during operation with a lowered pump jack speed or during operation at the lowest speed. Moreover, the stroke speed during upstroke of the pump jack is made to be a rectangular waveform from a sinusoidal waveform or an upstroke operation is performed while applying a torque limit in an inverter operation.

Title: A method to use heat energy from black liquor
Inventor: SNEKKENES VIDAR
IPC: D21C3/22
Filed: 2007-11-20
Abstract: The present invention concerns a method to retrieve heat from black liquor, where the black liquor is withdrawn from a digester (10) in association with the production of cellulose pulp. The black liquor at the withdrawal stage maintains a first withdrawal temperature. The invention is characterised in that at least a part of the black liquor is led to a heat exchanger (11). An exchange of heat takes place in the heat exchanger between the black liquor and a bleaching filtrate that has been obtained from the bleaching plant. The exchange of heat results in the bleaching filtrate experiencing a raise in temperature of at least 5 0C, after which the heated bleaching filtrate is used in the bleaching plant.

Title: Improved breast self-exam device
Inventor: BROMBERG BETH
IPC: A41D19/00
Filed: 2008-01-16
Abstract: A device for breast self-examination worn over the fingers of a user's hand, comprising an operative portion with an outside shell, an inside liner, and a lubricant contained therebetween, and a barrier adhering the outside shell to the inside liner and acting to seal the lubricant within. The operative portion is sized to substantially restrict access to just the pads of the distal and middle regions of the four fingers, preventing the non-recommended use of the thumb and palm during the inspection process, due to their limited sensitivity. The operative portion is designed to allow the recommended substantial lateral displacement of the inside layer relative to the outside shell that remains in substantially immobile contact with an area of skin. The novel design substantially prevents incorrect use thereby increasing the detection effectiveness.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for generating side information for grammar-based data compression systems, such as YK compression systems, is described. An admissible grammar (G) for an input sequence (A(s0)) having a finite set of terminal symbols is obtained. A graph representation of the admissible grammar (G) is then constructed. An edge having a lowest weight (expansion frequency) is then pruned from the graph representation to generate a pruned graph representation. A pruned grammar (G) is then derived by removing the occurrence corresponding to the pruned edge from the grammar G and the starting variable (s0,i) of the pruned grammar (G i) is then expanded to generate the side information.
