Patent CA-2447772-A1 (CA)
Inventor: DYBDAHL BJORN
IPC: E21B49/08
Filed: 2001-08-28
Abstract: A method for testing petroleum or water wells. A tool is secured to a tubing and run into the well and to the reservoir zone to be explored. An upper and a lower seal isolate the reservoir zone. A piston is run into the tubing and pumped down to the tool. When sampling is to take place, a valve is opened and the reservoir fluid, together with drilling fluid filling the well, is allowed to enter the tool while displacing the piston. At the same time, measuring is carried out to identify a tracer added to the drilling fluid. When the tracer no longer can be traced, the drilling fluid contaminated reservoir fluid is displaced out of the tool by the piston and clean reservoir fluid is allowed to enter the tool. The invention also relates to an apparatus for practising the method.

Title: Distributed, packet-based premises automation system
Inventor: HALLENBECK PETER D
IPC: G04G21/00
Filed: 2002-06-06
Abstract: Distributed, packet-based premises automation system. The system can include, multiple, distributed, input/output (I/O) units (100, 101, 102, 103). Changes in inputs can be broadcast using one or more protocols onto a home or other premises network, and/or the Internet.

Patent CA-2453694-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BARMORE CHARLES RICE
IPC: B65D77/20
Filed: 2003-12-18
Abstract: A package for storing and shipping food products incorporates a multilayer film lid that includes a gas-impermeable exterior layer and a gas-permeable interior layer. The multilayer film lid is heat sealed to a flange of a tray upon which the food product is supported. The gas-impermeable layer may be delaminated from the gas-permeable layer when it is desired to expose the food to atmospheric gases. Separation of the gas-impermeable layer from the gas-permeable layer is facilitated by a film fracture feature included in the heat seal pattern adjacent a pull tab of the lid. The film fracture feature concentrates the separation forces exerted on the tab in a small area so that the gas-permeable layer of the lid readily breaks at the film fracture feature.

Title: Power transmission belt and method
Inventor: KOPANG CRAIG
IPC: B29D29/00
Filed: 2002-07-17
Abstract: The invention comprises a belt having a plied construction overlying tensile cords. An elastomeric layer (10) overlies an overcord (11) which overlies yet another elastomeric layer (12) which in turn overlies a tensile cord (13). The overcord layer supports the tensile cords during molding thereby stabilizing a cordline centerline position with respect to a rib apex. This construction significantly reduces a distance from a tensile cord centerline to a rib apex and rib/pulley interface in a multi-ribbed belt, thereby significantly increasing belt life.

Abstract: A boom for a telescopic loader, is described. It is proposed that the boom be configured with a carrier arrangement having one end fastened to a frame of the loader vehicle, free to pivot, and having a second free end defined by an attaching flange. A front piece includes a mating flange configured complementary to the attaching flange and releasably secured to it. The front piece is used to engage a tool. To enlarge this modular configuration, an extension carrier is provided that includes a further mating flange and a further attaching flange. By inserting the extension carrier between the front piece and the carrier arrangement, the boom can be extended to conform to special operating requirements. Furthermore, the modular configuration permits a more flexible configuration of the carrier arrangement and the front piece and has a more favorable effect regarding manufacture, handling and transport of the carrier arrangement and the front piece. Also, the range of working can be further expanded by constructing the carrier arrangement so as to include telescoping carriers, with the outer-most carrier being provided with a flange for attachment either to the extension or to the front piece.

Patent CA-2480426-A1 (CA)
Title: Smart card mating protocol
Inventor: KIMBALL BRIDGET
IPC: H04N7/16
Filed: 2003-03-19
Abstract: A system is described for uniquely mating components of a communication network such as a smartcard and a set-top box. When mated, the smartcard and set-top box are tied together and have a single identity. Further, the smartcard operates properly only when inserted into an authorized set-top box.  Exchanges of information between both components are secured by encryption and authentication to guard against piracy of the exchanged information. The system provides the same authentication key to the set-top box and the smartcard. This key is used for authenticating communication between the set-top box and the smartcard. First, the authentication key is encrypted by a set-top box mating key. The set-top box employs this mating key to decrypt the authentication key. After it is derived, the authentication key is stored in the set-top box's memory. Further, the same authentication key is encrypted by a smartcard mating key. Thereafter, the smartcard employs the smartcard mating key to extract the authentication key. The clear authentication key is stored in the smartcard's memory as well. In this manner, the authentication key is used for securing all communication between the set-top box and the smart-card. For example, the set-top box may request control words from the smartcard. Only after authenticating the request, are the control words for decrypting digital content provided to the set-top box. If the smartcard authentication key is different from the set-top box key, the request for control words is denied.
