Patent CA-2384597-C (CA)
Inventor: MAHURKAR SAKHARAM D
IPC: A61M5/31

Granted: 2007-03-27
Abstract: A safety syringe assembly includes an elongated, generally cylindrical barrel having a hollow interior forming a hollow nozzle located at a distal end of the barrel and opening into the interior of the barrel. A plunger is slidably mounted in the barrel and has a longitudinal open channel. A needle holder mounts a needle at a distal end thereof and is slidably mounted in the longitudinal open channel of the plunger for movement between an advanced position in which the needle on the distal end of the needle holder projects from a distal end of the nozzle, and a retracted position in which the needle is retracted within the barrel. A compression spring is mounted inside of the barrel, and a spring retainer element has a spring support portion extending from the interiorly of the barrel to a portion for mounted within the barrel and supporting a distal end portion of the spring against expansion. The spring urges the needle holder toward its retracted position. A latch has a closed position in which the needle holder is latched relative to the barrel to hold the needle holder in its advanced position against the urging of the spring, and an open position in which the needle holder is unlatched relative to the barrel to allow the spring to expand in a proximal direction to move the needle holder to its retracted position.

Title: Treatment of electric arc furnace dust to resist acid and alkaline leaching of heavy metals
Inventor: SMITH CHARLES L
IPC: F27D99/00
Filed: 2002-05-03
Granted: 2009-07-07
Abstract: A supplemental agent for a hazardous waste composition containing electric arc furnace dust (EAFD) includes potassium magnesium sulfate or a magnesium salt such as magnesium sulfate or magnesium chloride. The supplemental agent when mixed with EAFD and water, along with lime either lime inherent within the EAFD or added lime, reduces the leaching of heavy metals from the waste composition over a wide range of leaching conditions, including both acidic, neutral, and alkaline environments. The method for reducing the concentration of heavy metals in a leachate from the EAFD involves forming a mixture of EAFD, water, the supplemental agent, and, optionally, ferrous sulfate, along with lime, then permitting the mixture to react.

Title: Speed-difference-dependent hydraulic clutch with control valves
Inventor: GRATZER FRANZ
IPC: F16D48/02
Filed: 2000-10-12
Granted: 2009-11-24
Abstract: A speed-difference-dependent hydraulic clutch comprises a drive housing (27), which rotates in a housing (25) that is fixed in space and forms a reservoir, a hydrostatic displacement machine (35), an output shaft (30), a friction clutch (36) and a piston (5) for acting on the friction clutch (36), a pressure being produced in a pressure chamber (4) when a difference occurs between the speed of the drive housing (27) and that of the output shaft (30), this pressure giving rise to action upon the friction clutch (36).  To achieve rapid control and adaptation of the characteristic, the first and the second opening (9, 10) are each connected to the reservoir (8), via a first and second rotary input (13, 14) and a first and second controllable control valve (15, 16) respectively, said valves being fixed to the housing, the first and second control valve (15, 16) being designed as controllable throttles, with the result that a control action takes place both at the respective supply side and at the discharge side of the displacement machine, irrespective of the direction of the differential speed.

Title: System and method of producing direct audio from a power supply
Inventor: RODRIGUEZ MANUEL D
IPC: H04R3/00
Filed: 2001-03-14
Granted: 2009-07-28
Abstract: A novel circuit that generates direct audio from a power supply (+V) that uses no power amplifier and that can provide full isolation to any impedance load. It has no power amplifier output stage and has a zero signal-to-noise ratio when there is no signal input because the circuit is designed with MOSFETS that do not conduct unless there is a signal input. A low power embodiment uses a single power supply to bias push-pull transistors, a medium power embodiment uses positive and negative rails individually to bias the push-pull transistors, and a high power embodiment uses the additive sum of the positive and negative rails to bias the push-pull transistors.
