Inventor: NORELL NEIL N
IPC: H02P6/20
Filed: 2011-05-03
Abstract: In a method of controlling current in a control circuit of an electric motor, pulse-width modulation (PWM) pulses are applied to a stator of the electric motor, via a plurality of transistors of the control circuit, using a first control mode when a rotational speed of a rotor of the electric motor is within a first range. At least one PWM pulse is applied to the stator, via a subset of the plurality of transistors, using a second control mode when the rotational speed of the rotor is within a second range. When it is determined that the rotational speed of the rotor has changed from being within the second range to being within the first range, additional PWM pulses are applied to the stator such that, for each of the plurality of transistors, a current through the transistor does not exceed a maximum current capacity of the transistor.

Patent CA-2837770-A1 (CA)
Inventor: TO QUANG QT
IPC: A61L2/10
Filed: 2013-12-30
Abstract: This is a dry hand sanitizer that uses filtered 207nm wavelength Kr-Br UV  excimer lamp bulbs. The user runs their hands through the device, which is activated by a laser-motion sensor. The user runs their hands through the device so as to have the UV light bathe the entire hand. The UV light emitted destroys the bacteria present on the hands. A recent study published concluded that a 207nm Kr-Br UV excimer lamp is sufficient enough to destroy drug-resistant bacteria, but is unlikely mutagenic to humans. The intent is to reduce water consumption and waste (paper towels).

Title: Accelerated channel charge in rate-limited environments
Inventor: CLIFFORD DAVID C
IPC: H04H20/77
Filed: 2005-12-09
Abstract: Accelerated channel change (ACC) strategies are described for supplying a client module with media information by transitioning between a first delivery of media information provided by first delivery functionality and a second delivery of media information provided by second delivery functionality without exceeding prescribed data rate limitations. The first delivery functionality can represent server-based functionality for delivering a unicast stream of media information at a data rate (or maximum data rate) of some excess amount over the nominal rate of delivery, starting at a selected location within the media information. The second delivery functionality can represent any functionality for delivering the media information at the data rate (or maximum data rate) of the nominal rate of delivery. A join interval separates the first delivery at the excess rate and the second delivery at the nominal rate. In that period, the first delivery functionality can provide media information at a join interval data rate. The join interval data rate, if it is below the nominal data rate, will cause the client module to miss packets of media information. The client module can receive these missing packets by issuing retry requests to the first delivery functionality or to some other entity. The client module can determine the excess amount available by investigating the amount of missing information that occurs at different data rates; or the excess amount can be defined in advance.
