Patent CA-2542664-A1 (CA)
Inventor: LINTON CARL E
IPC: A61G10/00
Filed: 2004-07-09
Abstract: A method and apparatus for cyclic variations in altitude condition that allows a user to rest in a pressure vessel while undergoing rapid variations or transitions between simulated altitudes. The pressure vessel comprises a blower to generate negative pressure, and a proportional valve to allow air back into the pressure vessel in order to relieve the negative pressure. An on-board interface, kiosk controller and master controller are all in electrical communication with each other in order to enable a user to implement a program of cyclic variations in altitude conditioning that is suitable to the specific user, and enables an operator to bill the user for such services, as well as to allow the user to use a different pressure vessel without re-entering data, so long as such data was originally entered and stored, and the different pressure vessel is in electrical communication with the master controller. A  user sensor monitors the user during a session, such that the program may be modified or replaced with another program in real time, according to the user's needs.

IPC: B60T8/176
Filed: 2006-05-01
Abstract: An antilock brake system for use with a self-energizing brake system having hydraulic interconnected actuators that act on an eccentric rotor and a brake exciter that provides for disengagement of the actuators from the rotor. The antilock brake system has wheel speed sensors that provide for a control module to determine when a wheel is in a state of immanent brake lock-up and to generate a control signal. Responsive to the control signal a brake disengagement module provides for regulation of the brake force generated by the brake system by alternately causing the exciter to operate the actuators to disengage and to re-engage the rotor.

IPC: E03F7/00
Filed: 2006-07-31
Abstract: A wastewater treatment facility includes provision for breakup of organic solids material at the head of the plant, prior to entry of the influent into treatment basins. The simple and low cost mixing device is effective in breaking up solid fecal material upstream of plant facilities. In one embodiment the device is a sump several feet in diameter and about ten feet deep, with upper inlet and lower outlet pipe connections. An air diffuser assembly within the sump introduces air bubbles that break up the fecal material, without breaking up non-fecal items such as plastics, and non-organic items. As a result, these other items are easier to remove. The diffuser device has advantages in not requiring local power, lower capital costs, lower maintenance, and complete breakup of solid fecal material.      When the effluent from the air diffuser device is passed through a screen, the screen will remove the non-organic items without trapping fecal material.

Title: Fext determination system
Inventor: CIOFFI JOHN M
IPC: H04L12/28
Filed: 2005-05-18
Abstract: Operational data is utilized to determine the FEXT interference induced by one line into the other DSL line. FEXT interference can be calculated using the NEXT interference measured between the two lines at the upstream ends of the loops and the downstream channel transfer function of one of the loops.  Because the NEXT and transfer function constitute a linear time-invariant system, as does the FEXT interference between the lines, the NEXT interference and line transfer function can be multiplied (if in linear format) or added (if in logarithmic format) to approximate the FEXT interference between the lines. The collection of data, calculations and other functions performed in these techniques may be performed by a system controller, such as a DSL  optimizer. An Xlog(u,n) quantity is a decibel-magnitude representation of the insertion~loss equivalent of FEXT transfer functions and is defined as the ratio of (1) a line u's source power into a matched load of 100 Ohms when no binder is present to (2) the power at the output of the subject line when line u is excited with the same source and the binder is present. Xlin(u, n) is the linear equivalent of Xlog(u, n). The Xlog(u, n) and Xlin(u,n) quantities may be represented in specific formats that assist in their use in DSL and other systems. When defined as a line's insertion loss, Xlin (or equivalently Xlog) does not include the effect of any transmit filter.
