Publication number: 20240077032Abstract: Methods and systems of operating a gas turbine engine in a low-power condition are provided. In one embodiment, the method includes supplying fuel to the combustor by supplying fuel to the first fuel manifold via a first flow divider valve and supplying fuel to the second fuel manifold via a second flow divider valve. While supplying fuel to the combustor by supplying fuel to the first fuel manifold, the method includes stopping supplying fuel to the second fuel manifold and supplying pressurized gas to the second fuel manifold via the second flow divider valve to flush fuel in the second fuel manifold into the combustor and hinder coking in the second fuel manifold and associated nozzles.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 8, 2023Publication date: March 7, 2024Inventors: Cédric SAINTIGNAN, Joseph Daniel Maxim CIRTWILL, Kian MCCALDON, David WADDLETON, Marc-André TREMBLAY, Ignazio BROCCOLINI, Stephen TARLING

Patent number: 11014486Abstract: A ground-level access operating system for a tank trailer. The ground-level system includes a cleaning/washing device, a venting device, an inspection access port, and device for loading/unloading the compartments. All devices in this system are located on the side of the semi-trailer, within an operator's reach on the ground. The devices locations are meant to be reachable to ensure operator safety. The operator of the trailer can execute all work without having to reach the top of the tank. Both of venting and cleaning/washing devices have their access port on top of the tank but are hooked up at a position proximate ground level, for an easy-to-reach operation and inspection by on operator on the ground.Type: GrantFiled: January 13, 2020Date of Patent: May 25, 2021Assignee: TREMCAR INC.Inventors: Daniel Tremblay, Pierre-Luc Beaudette, Alexandre Laforest

Patent number: 10893215Abstract: A system comprising cascaded standardized hot-pluggable transceiving units for providing a multiviewer functionality. A first layer comprises a plurality of transceiving units implementing a scaling functionality followed by a pre-positioning functionality. A second layer comprises a transceiving unit implementing a positioning functionality. Source video streams are scaled by the first layer, and further combined to generate primary mosaiced video streams. The primary mosaiced video streams are combined by the second layer to generate a secondary mosaiced video stream. Alternatively, the first layer comprises at least one transceiving unit only implementing the scaling functionality. Source video streams are scaled by the first layer to generate scaled video streams. The scaled video streams are combined by the second layer to generate a mosaiced video stream.Type: GrantFiled: November 21, 2019Date of Patent: January 12, 2021Assignee: Riedel Communications Canada Inc.Inventors: Renaud Lavoie, Louis Caron, Joel Martel, Daniel Tremblay

Patent number: 8945337Abstract: The present invention relates to a method to produce a polymeric sheet comprising the steps of providing an acid-based polymer, providing a neutralizing agent, the neutralizing agent being selected from the group consisting of an organic metallic compound, a metallic salt of a fatty acid, and an ionomer, or a mixture thereof, providing a processing oil, mixing said acid-based polymer, said neutralizing agent, said processing oil, to obtain a polymeric composition, and processing said polymeric composition to form a polymeric sheet. The polymeric sheet may be used as a component, or as a substrate, of a surface covering. The polymeric sheet may also be used to form polymeric particles which are component of so-called “homogenous”, or substrate-free, surface covering.Type: GrantFiled: May 29, 2009Date of Patent: February 3, 2015Assignee: Tarkett Inc.Inventors: Victor Caldas, Daniel Tremblay, Marcus Hyde, Jean-François Courtoy

Patent number: 8529311Abstract: Magnetic and electronic toy construction systems and elements are provided that include an assembly of at least two panels that have at least three magnets located around the perimeter of the panel such that the dipole axes of magnets in a single panel are coplanar and intersect to define a polygon. When attaching two adjacent panels, at least two ferromagnetic spheres are used such that the dipole axes of one magnet from each of the adjacent panels are collinear, and such that the dipole axes are collinear with the centers of the ferromagnetic spheres. In this manner, several panels configured in this way may be nested together to form great varieties of constructions.Type: GrantFiled: October 1, 2012Date of Patent: September 10, 2013Assignee: MEGA Brands InternationalInventors: Daniel Tremblay, Andreanne Lavoie, Pascal Messier
