Abstract: An endoscopic bipolar forceps for sealing and dividing tissue includes an elongated shaft having opposing jaw members at a distal end thereof. The jaw members are movable relative to one another from a first position wherein the jaw members are disposed in spaced relation relative to one another to a second position wherein the jaw members cooperate to grasp tissue therebetween. The jaws members are connected to a source of electrical energy such that the jaw members are capable of conducting energy through tissue held therebetween to affect a tissue seal. At least one non-conductive and spaced-apart stop member is disposed on an inner-facing surface of the jaw members to regulate the gap distance between the jaw members when tissue is held therebetween. The forceps also includes a longitudinally reciprocating knife which severs the tissue after sealing at a location which is proximate the sealing site.

Title: Process for preparing polyisocyanates
Inventor: KOECHER JUERGEN
IPC: C07D209/00
Filed: 2002-05-07
Granted: 2011-04-26
Abstract: The invention relates to process for preparing a polyisocyanate, comprising reacting a diisocyanate in the presence of an oligomerization catalyst which is a compound prepared from an anion of pyrrole, pyrazole, imidazole, 1,2,3- and 1,2,4-triazole, a tetrazole, a substituted derivative thereof, or a carbocyclically or heterocyclically fused derivative thereof, with a cation which is an alkali metal, alkaline earth metal, monovalent ammonium or monovalent phosphonium cation. The invention overcomes the disadvantage of the processes of the state of the art which on the one hand use high-activity salt catalysts which are suitable almost exclusively for generating trimers but hardly at all for uretdione formation and the more uretdione-selective catalysts are all of covalent compounds and so have to be used at a comparatively high concentration, based on the mass of catalyst and of isocyanate to be oligomerized, and also lead only to a relatively slow progress of the reaction. Both are disadvantageous for economic (space-time yield in the preparation) and paint technology reasons (disruptive effects of catalyst and/or catalyst successor product in the polyisocyanate).

Abstract: A capacitive touch-controlled automatic faucet comprises: a spout, a magnetically latching valve, a proximity sensor, a handle, a capacitive touch-control, and a logical control. The proximity sensor is sensitive to motion of objects within a detection zone of the proximity sensor. The handle determines a water flow rate and temperature. The capacitive touch-control is positioned in the spout and generates an output signal while the touch-control is in contact with a user. The logical control receives the output signal, and toggles the magnetically latching valve when the output signal begins and ends within a period of time less than a predetermined threshold, but does not toggle the magnetically latching valve when the output signal persists for a period longer than the predetermined threshold. The faucet has a manual mode, wherein the proximity sensor is inactive, and a hands-free mode, wherein water flow is toggled in response to the proximity sensor.
Patent CA-2493744-C (CA)

Granted: 2013-04-23
Abstract: L'invention porte sur un schéma de protection de mailles partagées qui définit un trajet de protection associée lorsqu'une connexion de travail est établie. Les schémas de protection globale et locale servent à fournir des avantages similaires afin d'encercler et d'étendre une commutation de protection dans des réseaux en anneau. Au cours de la définition du trajet de la protection globale, les informations du trajet de protection correspondant sont envoyées à une carte de commutation d'éléments du réseau constituant le trajet de protection. Lors de la détection de l'échec, les éléments du réseau utilisant un message d'octets de surdébit informent l'élément du réseau source d'acheminement de la connexion de l'échec du trajet. Les octets de surdébit utilisés sont des octets actionnés par interruption situés dans le surdébit de ligne et de trajet du trafic du réseau. Le noeud source d'acheminement de la connexion enverra alors les messages d'octets de surdébit correspondant vers le trajet de protection afin de permettre la mise en place du trajet de protection conformément aux données préalablement chargées situées dans la carte de commutation. Par conséquent, les tables d'acheminement situées au niveau des cartes de commutation des éléments du réseau, mises en places lorsque les connexions de trajet ont été initialement mises en place, permettent de déterminer l'environnement du trajet de protection dynamiquement attribué. Les octets de surdébit actionnés par interruption pour le trafic du réseau servent à fournir des durées de protection inférieures à 300 msec. La commutation de protection locale et la sélection de commutation sur des segments de protection locale disponibles peuvent être utilisés à la place du schéma de protection globale lorsque les canaux de protection locale sont disponibles sur les segments de protection locale.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé qui permet de passiver un produit en acier inoxydable qui consiste à immerger un matériau formé sous pression (11) dans une solution (12) présentant une température variant entre 40 et 60 ·C et un pH variant entre 9 et 12 afin de former un film de revêtement passivé (26) sur la surface du matériau ou qui, dans une variante, consiste à procéder à un dégraissage, à un lavage et à un traitement de passivation en faisant appel à la solution de traitement mentionnée plus haut au moyen d'un procédé de pulvérisation. Ce traitement de passivation ne comprend pas l'élution d'un ion métallique du matériau et permet de réaliser la passivation à l'aide d'une seule solution de traitement, ce qui donne lieu à la réduction du coût de passivation, notamment le coût de traitement des résidus. De plus, ce procédé permet d'accélérer le dégraissage, le lavage et le traitement de passivation et de réaliser ces étapes avec un taux réduit de solutions de traitement, grâce à l'utilisation d'un procédé de pulvérisation.
