Patent CA-2376821-A1 (CA)
Title: Device and method for producing a data carrier
Inventor: ESSER HANS-GERD
IPC: B29C65/50
Filed: 2000-06-14
Abstract: The aim of the invention is to provide a simple and cost-effective production of a high-quality data carrier having at least two substrates (6, 10) that are adhered to one another. To this end, the invention provides a device and method with which a two-sided adhering adhesive film (25) is applied to a first substrate (6) and the substrates are aligned and subsequently joined. The adhesive film (25) is pressed onto the substrate (6) by a rotating pressure roller (33), whereas the substrate (6) and the pressure roller (33) are moved relative to one another.

Title: Ultrasonic surgical instrument with removable clamp arm
Inventor: WHIPPLE GARY
IPC: A61B18/00
Filed: 2000-06-21
Abstract: An ultrasonic surgical instrument (100) comprises a wave-guide (80) adapted to be acoustically coupled to an ultrasonic transducer (50), and to transmit ultrasonic energy to an end effector (81) located at the distal end of the wave-guide (80). A  support tube (72) extends from a handle assembly (68), and surrounds at least a portion of the wave-guide, terminating proximal to the end effector (81). A clamp arm (56) is detachably mounted to the distal end of the support tube (72). An actuation element (76) is operatively coupled to the clamp arm (56). The ultrasonic surgical instrument (100) may also include a clamp arm release (93).  The actuation element comprises a first range of motion, and a second range of motion, whereby moving the clamp ann release from a second position to a first position increases allowable motion of the actuation element from the second range of motion to the first range of motion, thereby facilitating release of the clamp arm from the support tube.

Inventor: WARD NICHOLAS EDWARD
IPC: E02B3/10
Filed: 2000-06-01
Abstract: Cette invention se rapporte à un barrage d'urgence rapide. Lors d'intempéries, de fortes pluies peuvent amener les rivières à sortir de leur lit et les lacs à dépasser leur niveau maximum, inondant ainsi la campagne environnante. Les défenses côtières peuvent également être rompues par une augmentation de la houle et la grosseur des vague. La digue (1) de cette invention comprend un panneau de digue rectangulaire allongé (2), un radier (4) s'étendant depuis le bord inférieur du panneau de digue (2), un panneau frontal rectangulaire allongé (7) et un moyen de support se présentant sous la forme de plusieurs membrures de support (8). Le panneau de digue (2) est constitué en un matériau souple imperméable aux liquides, tel que du plastique, du caoutchouc, de la toile étanche, du nylon ou tout autre matériau naturel ou manufacturé approprié. Un matériau préféré pour le panneau de digue (2) est une toile souple résistante à la déchirure et imperméable aux liquides. Dans un mode de réalisation préféré de cette invention, le bord inférieur (6) de la digue est fixé à un bord du radier (4). Cette fixation assure une jointure imperméable aux liquides entre le radier (4) et le panneau de digue (2).

Patent CA-2382211-A1 (CA)
Title: Adaptive data rate control for narrowcast networks
Inventor: MILLER MARK J
IPC: H04B7/185
Filed: 2000-08-16
Abstract: A system to provide narrowcast communications uses adaptive data rate contro l to individual subscribers such that the effects of precipitation or other li nk conditions, which are not common to all subscribers, is mitigated. The invention takes advantage of the fact that the narrowcast data consist of packets which are individually addressed to specific subscribers, or groups of subscribers. The narrowcast data is communicated on a plurality of FDM carriers, each of potentially differing data rates. The subscribers are assigned a particular FDM carrier, based upon their link quality, to receive  packets addressed to them. The lower data rate FDM carriers will be less affected by adverse link conditions and are hence assigned to subscribers mo st likely to incur adverse link conditions.

Patent CA-2385193-A1 (CA)
Inventor: FORREST GORDON COULTER
IPC: G01N33/545
Filed: 2000-10-27
Abstract: A lateral flow device having a porous reaction zone (2, 3) in communication with a porous filter zone (4). The reaction zone (2, 3) contains (i) analyte-specific label and (ii) a particulate carrier having analyte-specific capture reagent immobilised thereon. The filter zone (4) has a smaller pore size than the reaction zone (2, 3). Label not bound to the particulate carrier can thus enter the filter zone (4), unlike label that is bound to the carrier. After applying a sample, lateral flow brings analyte into contact with label and particulate carrier within the reaction zone (2, 3), to form a complex. Free label does not bind to the particulate carrier. During flow from the reaction zone (2, 3) to the filter zone (4), free label migrates into the filter zone (4), whereas particle-analyte-label complex is captured at its entrance (6).  This avoids the need to use immobilised antibody to capture an analyte-label complex.
Patent CA-2387327-A1 (CA)
Inventor: HOWLETT PETER
IPC: G05D1/00
Filed: 2001-08-07
Abstract: The invention concerns the maintenance of a fast setting and removal equipment set (1-6, 11), substitutable by standard replacements, provided with individual electronic circuits (1a, 6a, 20a-23a, 30a-32a, 11a) monitoring proper functioning providing, at their level, a BITE (Built-In Test Equipment) function for failure testing and diagnosing and for transmitting a failure message by data transmission to a central maintenance computer (7) itself preparing a report on the global operating condition of the equipment set. More particularly, the invention concerns the hardware parts of the electronic circuits monitoring the proper functioning which are integral with the equipment (1-6) or part of the equipment (20-23, 30-32) and which are provided with a non-volatile storage (405) and means for detecting, selecting and recording (403, 413, 423) in their non-volatile storage units (405), the report prepared by the central maintenance computer (7). Since those hardware parts of the circuits monitoring the proper functioning track the problems of parts of equipment or equipment with which they are integral, they provide on a permanent basis, in a repair centre, together with a component removed for repair, the latest report on the global operating condition of the equipment set which is often the cause of removal, thereby facilitating the establishment of a repair diagnosis.

Title: Device for detaching filter cakes
Inventor: WESP MANFRED
IPC: B01D25/12
Filed: 2000-10-11
Abstract: A device (1) for detaching filter cakes which adheres to a filter cloth (4) of a filter press has at least two deviating bodies (2, 3) over which the filter cloth (4) runs in an S-shape and which can be moved in an approximately vertical direction so that the S-shaped deviation brushes essentially completely over the adhering area of the filter cake. According to the invention, the filter cloth (4) performs a relative, sliding movement between the filter cake and the deviating bodies (2, 3) over a surface of a deviating body (3) and has a bend (8) in its course on a longitudinal edge (7) of the deviating body (3) to ensure that the filter cake can be detached completely even when it is not completely filtered out.

Inventor: HARADA HIROSHI
IPC: B29C45/00
Filed: 2000-09-06
Abstract: An object of the invention is to provide an injection molding process for preparing thermoplastic resin molded articles and an injection molding apparatus for use in practicing this process, the process and the apparatus being adapted to supply a blowing agent, especially a nonreactive gas such as carbon dioxide or nitrogen gas, to a thermoplastic resin continuously at a relatively low pressure with good stability to incorporate the agent or gas into the resin. As shown in FIG. 3, a resin in a cylinder (2) of an injection molding machine (1) as melted by rotating a screw (3) is mixed and dissolves carbon dioxide which is supplied to the molten resin from a gas supply opening (5) formed in the screw (3). An amount of the gas-incorporating molten resin is measured out and injected into a mold cavity to obtain an expansion-molded article. To incorporate carbon dioxide into the molten resin, the gas is supplied from a gas inlet (11) formed in a rear end portion of the screw to a portion (4a) not fed with the resin and positioned between front and rear screw flights and closer to the front flight, through a gas supply channel 6 extending through the screw and via the supply opening (5).
