Patent CA-2124220-A1 (CA)
Title: Avian sex identification probes
Inventor: HALVERSON JOY L
IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 1992-09-25
Abstract: Avian cDNA nucleotide sequences for use as hybridization probes are provided. Probes derived from the sequences find use in defining the sex of a bird, usually by producing hybridization patterns that are sex-specific for most avian species. For a given avian species the probes may hybridize to both Z and W chromosomes so as to differentiate between the two chromosomes on the basis of restriction fragment length polymorphisms. Alternatively, the probes may hybridize exclusively to one of the two sex chromosomes in some species. The hybridization probes taught are also useful for the isolation of other nucleotide sequences that may be used to generate sex-specific hybridization patterns.

Abstract: ERROR CORRECTION CODE ON ADD-ON CARDS  FOR WRITING PORTIONS OF DATA WORDS                           ABSTRACT      The present invention provides a computer system and method of using the same.   Add-on memory cards for the system are provided which cards have error correction code logic on the card, and logic to do partial writes of data words.  The system has a central processing unit (CPU), a BUS interconnecting the CPU and the add-on memory cards. The CPU or associated components are configured to write data and read data from the add-on memory as several data bytes constituting data words.   The  system is further configured either within the CPU or as a separate function to generate parity bits associated with each of the bytes of data the CPU writes to the add-on memory and to read parity bits associated with data the CPU reads from the add-on memory and regenerate new parity bits and compare the newly generated parity bits with the original parity bits to detect data errors on data read from the add-on memory.  The system itself does not contain error correction code (ECC). The add-on memory has ECC logic to identify any byte having a single bit error in the data bytes or the parity bits written by the CPU to the add-on memory and to correct all single bit errors in data read from the add-on memory to the CPU.  The error correcting code includes logic to generate parity bits in the data bytes written by the CPU to the add-on memory and logic to compare the parity bits written by the CPU with those generated by the error correcting code logic.

Title: Method of forming tire bead assembly
Inventor: MOCHEL VIRGIL D
IPC: B60C15/06
Filed: 1994-11-28
Abstract: A method of forming a bead assembly for use in a pneumatic tire includes extruding a strip of green elastomeric material onto a split or pair of steel supporting guide ring where the ends of the extruded strip are cut at a bias angle and then spliced together to form an annular elastomeric member.  The extruded strip and formed annular member has a pair of tapered longitudinal end members joined by a central recess.  An annular tire bead is placed in radial alignment about the central recess of the annular member.   Next,  a segmented mandrel  carrying inflatable turnup bladders  is expanded outwardly, afterwhich the split guide ring is axially withdrawn.  The mandrel and bladders then provide the support for the elastomeric member previously provided by the split annular ring, and traps the bead within the central recess. The two longitudinal end members of the extruded strip are then turned up about the bead by inflating the bladders to form the bead assembly, afterwhich the assembly is placed in a shaping mold.  If desired, an annular strip of reinforcing material may be placed concentrically about the bead before the end members are turned up about the bead, to provide internal reinforcement for the bead assembly.

Abstract: A capacity monitor for diapers (10) and the like, including super absorbent material disposed in or adja-cant to an absorbent core ( I6) is disclosed: The monitor (20) comprises an indicator (24) and a baffle (22) to pre-vent direct contact between the absorbent core and the indicator. The indicator (24) is preferably a ribbon of hot melt adhesive with a wetness indicator which changes color when exposed to liquid. The baffle (22) is a substantially water impervious sheet positioned be-tween the absorbent core ( 16) and the indicator (24) so as to prevent direct contact between them. The diaper (10) and the monitor (20) are constructed so that there is a threshold level of liquid which, when deposited in the diaper, will effect a color change in the indicator (24). A quantity of liquid which is below the threshold will not effect a color change in the indicator (24) and a quanti-ty of liquid which is above the threshold will effect a co-for change in the indicator (24).

Title: Data collection and processing for digital ac power system monitor/analyzer
Inventor: ELMS ROBERT TRACY
IPC: G01R23/20
Filed: 1995-10-16
Abstract: A digital monitor/analyzer for an ac electrical power system samples the current and voltage waveforms at a slow rate for performing metering functions, and at a high rate for analyzing harmonic content. Sampling is performed in sampling frames comprising a plurality of repetitions of sampling for a selected number of cycles followed by a delay of a fraction of a cycle. This effects equivalent sampling at a higher rate for slow speed sampling over a frame. High speed sampling is performed over only onerepetition of the selected number of cycles in a frame so that it can be carried out sychronously as required for the harmonic analysis. The high speed sampling rate is an integer multiple of the slow speed rate so that slow speed data can be extracted from the high speed samples for continuous metering. Fourier analysis of the harmonic content of the waveforms is performed on the odd interrupts while all of the other tasks are apportioned out over the even interrupts of a sampling frame. Both the odd and even interrupts initiate sampling.
