Title: Seismic perimeter clip for suspended ceiling grid
Inventor: INGRATTA ANTHONY D
IPC: E04B9/06
Filed: 2005-09-07
Abstract: A perimeter clip is made of a single piece of sheet metal and includes first and second legs that are bent at approximately 90 degrees with respect to each other. The first leg is for engaging the vertical leg of a wall angle. The second leg is adapted to receive the head or bulb of the runner. The first leg includes an upper portion and a lower portion. The upper portion of the first leg forms a back plate that is displaced from the plane of the lower portion, with a generally horizontal ledge connecting the upper portion to the lower portion. The first leg has a tongue or tab that is displaced from the plane of the remainder of the lower portion so that, when in place, the vertical leg of the wall angle is held between the tongue and the remainder of the lower portion. The upper portion of the second leg comprises an inverted, generally U-shaped member, the open end of which forms a trough that supports the lower surface of the bulb of the runner.

Patent CA-2522044-A1 (CA)
Inventor: HAWES ADRIAN
IPC: F16J15/16
Filed: 2004-04-23
Abstract: An ultrahigh-pressure fluid system, such as an ultrahigh-pressure fluid pump, includes an improved dynamic seal assembly that can withstand pressures above 40,000 psi, and more preferably, pressures up to and beyond 87,000 psi. The dynamic sealing assembly (21) includes a plastic seal (22) having a bore (23) through which the plunger (12) reciprocates, and a bearing (24) positioned adjacent the seal, also having a bore through which the plunger reciprocates.  A seal carrier (26) surrounds the circumference of the bearing and is subjected to a compressive force that is sufficiently high to circumferentially collapse the seal carrier in a radial direction against the bearing. This collapse of the seal carrier against the bearing causes an inner surface of the bore through the bearing to achieve substantially uniform contact with an outer surface of the plunger when the assembly is subjected to ultrahigh-pressure, thereby eliminating gaps that occur in prior art systems.  By eliminating any gap between the seal carrier and the bearing, and between the bearing and the plunger, the present invention eliminates any pathway through which the seal might otherwise extrude, particularly when subjected to high pressures up to and beyond 40,000 psi, and more particularly, up to and beyond 87,000 psi.

Title: Methods and systems for automatically determining and collecting a monetary contribution from an instrument
Inventor: GORELICK STEVEN M
IPC: G06Q20/00
Filed: 2004-08-30
Abstract: Methods and systems are provided by embodiments of the invention for automatically determining and collecting a monetary contribution from an instrument associated with a donor. An embodiment of a method according to the invention includes receiving an instrument, determining a currency amount of the instrument, and determining a monetary contribution. To determine the monetary contribution, the method determines whether the instrument is a billing instrument or financial instrument. If the instrument is a financial instrument, the method determines whether authorization exists for a monetary contribution. If authorization exists, the method rounds the currency amount of the financial instrument downward to a lower currency amount; and determines the difference (a positive value) between the currency amount of the financial instrument and the lower currency amount, wherein the difference is the monetary contribution. If the instrument is a billing instrument, the method determines whether authorization exists for a monetary contribution. If authorization exists, the method rounds the currency amount of the billing instrument upward to a higher currency amount; and determines the difference (a positive value) between the higher currency amount and the currency amount of the billing instrument, wherein the difference is the monetary contribution. The method also collects the monetary contribution into the target account. Algorithms associated with determining a monetary contribution useful in carrying out such systems and methods are described.

Inventor: SNEKKENES VIDAR
IPC: D21C9/18
Filed: 2005-03-09
Abstract: The invention concerns a method and a device for the dilution of dewatered cellulose pulp that maintains a consistency of 20-30% of greater. By shredding of the pulp to a finely divided dry granulate, dilution to a homogeneous consistency in the medium consistency range can take place exclusively through hydrodynamic effects from the addition of dilution fluid. The dilution fluid is added to the granulate at a position at which the granulate is in the free fall in a stand pipe (22, 40) and above a level LiqLEV of diluted pulp in the stand pipe. A number of nozzles are arranged around the periphery of the stand pipe, directed in towards the centre of the stand pipe, obliquely downwards in the direction of fall of the granulate. It is possible through this simplified procedure to avoid completely the conventional dilution screws, and this reduces the investment costs and operating costs, while at the same time unnecessary mechanical influence of the pulp fibres can be avoided.
