Patent CA-2360905-A1 (CA)
Inventor: JONES WILLIAM JOHN
IPC: H01H9/26
Filed: 2001-11-01
Abstract: A mechanical AND gate has a pivot plate with an elongated slot engaged by an output coupling formed by a pair of pins radially offset from the end of an output shaft. A pair of input couplings secured to the pivot plate at points laterally offset on opposite sides of the elongated slot couple first and second elongated actuators to the pivot plate. Movement of only one of the elongated actuator s to an ON position causes the pivot plate to translate relative to the output coupling, but not to rotate. However, when the second actuator is moved to an ON position in a direction parallel but opposite to the movement of the first actuator, the pivot plate rotates to rotate the output coupling, and therefore, the output shaft. This  mechanical AND gate has particular application to interlocking three electric power switches such as circuit breakers so that any two, but not all three, circuit breakers may  be on at one time.

Title: Double current collector negative electrode design for alkali metal ion electrochemical cells
Inventor: GAN HONG
IPC: H01M6/50
Filed: 2001-11-16
Abstract: A new sandwich negative electrode design for a secondary cell is provided comprising a "sacrificial" alkali metal along with a carbonaceous anode material.      In the case of a hard carbon anode material, the sacrificial alkali metal is preferably lithium and is sized to compensate for the initial irreversible capacity of this anode material. Upon activating the cells, the lithium metal automatically intercalates into the hard carbon anode material. That way, the sacrificial lithium is consumed and compensates for the generally unacceptable irreversible capacity of hard carbon. The superior cycling longevity of hard carbon now provides a secondary cell of extended use beyond that know for conventional secondary cells having only graphitic anode materials.
