Inventor: DUTCHER ROBERT C
IPC: A61B17/00
Filed: 2000-09-27
Abstract: Crossflow thrombectomy catheter and system for fragmentation and removal of thrombus or other material from blood vessels or other body cavities. High velocity saline jets emitted from a toroidal loop jet emanator or other jet emanator in a catheter distal end entrain fluid through inflow orifices, and with flow resistances create a back-pressure which drives crossflow streams through outflow orifices in a radial direction and thence radially and circumferentially to apply normal and drag forces on thrombotic deposits or lesions in the blood vessel or other body cavity, thereby breaking apart and transporting thrombus particles to be entrained through the inflow orifices, whereupon the high velocity jets macerate the thrombus particles which then transit an exhaust lumen or recirculate again via the outflow orifices.

Title: Hydraulic stretching device for a saw chain
Inventor: NILSSON GUNNAR
IPC: B27B17/14
Filed: 1999-02-16
Abstract: The invention relates to a stretching device for a saw chain arranged to be active between a holder and a guiding device. A piston is arranged in a displaceable manner at the holder in parallel with the longitudinal direction of a saw bar. The piston has an engaging surface intended to grip an opposing surface an the guiding part.      The engaging surface and the opposing surface are located in parallel planes and these planes are arranged at an angle to a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the saw bar. The piston, when it grips the surfaces, affects the guiding part with a force whose components act partly in the longitudinal direction of the saw bar to stretch the saw chain and partly in a direction across the longitudinal direction of the saw bar to achieve a stabilising gripping of the parts that move in relation to one another.

IPC: G06F13/16
Filed: 1999-03-12
Abstract: A bus selector device (3) is placed independently of a master chip (1) and at a distance substantially equal from the master chip (1) and a plurality of slave chips (2a-2c). When transmitting and receiving a command or data, the master chip (1) supplies the bus selector device (3) with a connection information signal that indicates the connection of buses (B, Ba-Bc) between chips (1, 2a-2). The bus selector device (3) switches and selects the bus connections between chips on the basis of the connection information signal.  Therefore, the bus length becomes short and substantially equal for all the chips (1, 2a-2c), and high-speed data transmission can be achieved between chips. Further, the number of pins of the master chip is reduced.

Patent CA-2334477-A1 (CA)
Title: Occlusion detection system
Inventor: LYNCH CHRISTOPHER D
IPC: A61M5/00
Filed: 1999-06-11
Abstract: A system and a method for detecting the presence of an occlusion in an intravenous (IV) line supplying a medicinal liquid to a patient.  Two pressure occlusion sensors are employed to produce a value for the proximal and distal pressures within an IV pumping cassette that is disposed in the fluid path of the IV line. Each pressure occlusion sensor includes a strain gauge connected to a leaf spring that is fixed at one end within a pump chassis and a rod that is disposed transverse to the leaf spring. Each rod has one end that responds to the force of a portion of an elastomeric membrane inside the pumping cassette and another end that contacts a free end of the leaf spring. When a leaf spring is flexed by the movement of a rod, the strain gauge mounted on the leaf spring produces a differential voltage that corresponds to a fluid pressure within the pumping cassette. The distal pressure occlusion sensor automatically opens a flow stop on the pumping cassette when the pumping cassette is inserted into the pump chassis. The outputs from the distal and proximal pressure sensors are sampled at least once per second to ensure that maximum pressure values are not exceeded and that a pressure sensor failure is immediately detected.

Patent CA-2342553-A1 (CA)
Inventor: KO JUNG-WAN
IPC: G11B20/18
Filed: 2001-04-03
Abstract: A method of verifying that defect management area (DMA) information is generated or updated normally when a disc recording and reproducing apparatus performs reinitialization with clearing of defect lists without certification, and a test apparatus therefore. The method includes performing reinitialization with clearing of a predetermined defect list existing in a DMA on a test disc in a recording and reproducing apparatus using a test disc with test reference information, and generating test information from the defect management information which is generated after the reinitialization; and comparing reference information expected from the test reference information with the test information to provide the result of verification of the test information. Accordingly, a user can check within a short time whether a given disc recording and reproducing apparatus correctly generates or updates DMA information in a reinitialization mode, and costs can be saved by not requiring a manufacturer to produce and provide test discs.

Inventor: VAROL ILHAN J
IPC: B23K9/12
Filed: 1999-12-17
Abstract: A method and system for controlling the quality of a weld during a weld process includes using an automated welding apparatus (16) to apply a weld bead (10) along a weld seam (12) to join a first work piece (18) to a second  work piece (18). The weld seam (12) is the area between the work pieces (18)  which receives the weld bead (10). Surfaces of the weld seam are measured to  determine weld seam (12) characteristics such as seam shape, misfit in a sea m, seam gap, and surface irregularities. A weld seam (12) profile is determined  based on the measurements of the weld seam (12). A desired weld bead profile  is predicted based on the weld seam profile. Optimal welding parameters for the weld process are determined to achieve the desired weld bead profile (34 ). As the automated welding apparatus (16) applies the weld bead (10) along the  weld seam (12), weld bead characteristics are measured to define the actual weld bead profile (34). The desired weld bead profile is compared to the actual weld bead profile (34) and the desired weld bead profile. Modificatio ns may include changing wire speed, travel speed, torch position, torch angles,  or other various welding parameters.

Abstract: A protector for seedlings or small trees is provided having top and bottom protective covers that may be used individually or may be snap locked together in a plural format.  Each cover is made of a sheet of moulded pliable polymer material, capable of being folded along its center to form a living hinge. A channel-like portion to each side of the hinge is formed by a plurality of stacked shell-form bodies, each with a poly hourglass shape. A bottom end has a hole, typically of a two inch diameter, for surrounding the seedling. The top protective cover formed by the channel-like portions consists of a roof member that is adapted to collect water internally in the form of condensation and externally in the form of rain, and to disperse the water onto the plant. The bottom protective cover is open at its top end and has one male snap on each sidewall for mating with respective female slots on the top protective cover when connecting both covers. Spine members, one on each side of the channel-like portion, add strength and rigidity to the protective cover when it is open or folded in a closed position. These spine members also form part of a locking mechanism wherein single or dual wooden stakes or metal rods are weaved through locking straps on the spine members to create a very strong and superior locking system to prevent small rodents and larger animals like deer from reaching the protected seedling in the cavity area.
