The intubation scope allows for a user to utilize conventional techniques for the insertion of an endotracheal tube, reducing the training needed for use of the subject intubation scope. The imaging scopes also incorporate at least one illumination fiber to convey light to the distal tip of the subject imaging scopes, for illumination of the objects to be imaged.
Patent CA-2314777-A1 (CA)
Title: Smart mobile assisted handoff method
Inventor: RAUSCHER MARY ELLEN
IPC: H04B7/26
Filed: 2000-07-31
Abstract: The present invention provides a methodology for selectively enabling and disabling mobile assisted handoff (MAHO) in a TDMA wireless communication system on a per-mobile station basis based on a triggering signal. The triggering signal identifies the mobile station or set of mobile stations for which the MAHO feature is to be disabled. The triggering signal may originate at a base station or a mobile switching center (MSC) by a system technician. The triggering signal may also originate from a served mobile station and contain information about a position of the served mobile station. In this latter case, if the served mobile station has not moved from a previous position, the serving base station disables MAHO for the served mobile station. A MAHO disable signal uniquely identifies those mobile stations for which MAHO is to be disabled. When a served mobile station receives such a disable signal, it ceases to transmit signal quality information. Alternatively, MAHO is constantly enabled for the served mobile station, and the serving base station selectively processes channel quality information based on movement of the served mobile station.

Title: Side frame-bolster interface for railcar truck assembly
Inventor: SPENCER CHARLES P
IPC: B61F5/12
Filed: 2000-09-07
Abstract: A three-piece railcar truck assembly is disclosed. The truck assembly has two side frames and a bolster extending between the side frames. Each side frame has spaced columns defining an opening which receives one end of the bolster. Each side frame also has forward and rearward lugs at the columns, both on the inboard side and the outboard side. Each side frame lug has a stop surface that is aligned in a facing relationship with a stop surface of one bolster gib. There is a gap between the opposed side frame lug and bolster gib stop surfaces. The gap distance is limited to limit the truck warp angle. The neighboring side frame lugs and bolster gibs may be sized, shaped and spaced so that the truck warp angle may be limited to an angle of less than two degrees. The various stop-surfaces may be hardened to a desirable range of hardness over at least the contact portion of either contacting lug or gib, or both contacting surfaces may be hardened above the as-cast hardness.

Title: Model resolution feature and process and its use to detect attacks on computer systems
Inventor: ROGER MURIEL
IPC: G06F21/55
Filed: 2000-09-06
Abstract: Procedure for resolving the specifications has a number of steps starting with formulation of the audit conditions that one wishes to detect using the specification formulae. The audit conditions are used to express forms of attack that can be detected by examination of the system log file. The specification formulae are then expanded using an algorithm into sub-formulae, a scanning stage by a software interpreter is used with the sub-formulae to generate Horn Clauses, positive Horn clauses from a stack of completed sub-formulae are then memorized in a table and a resolution stage starting with the positive clauses is used to produce an output file or a system action. The above stages are repeated for all the entries in the system log.

Title: Modular jack having a plug-positioning member
Inventor: GOODRICH ROBERT R
IPC: H01R24/58
Filed: 2000-11-20
Abstract: A modular jack [200] includes a jack housing [220] with an opening [225] in its front end that is adapted to receive a modular plug [100]. Within the opening there are a number of jack springs [215] for making electrical contact with metallic blades [120] that are installed in the plug. Variations in the actual position [211] where the plug blades make contact with the jack springs are reduced by the inclusion of a positioning member within the housing. This is extremely important in situations where the modular plug includes crosstalk compensation, since positional variations affect the amount of crosstalk compensation needed. In one embodiment, the positioning member comprises a cam [228] that engages a flexible latch [130] on the modular plug to create an axial force [Fl] that pushes the plug toward a retaining surface [229] within the housing. In another embodiment, the positioning member comprises a spring [213], other than the jack springs, that engages a rigid surface [135] on the modular plug to create an axial force [F2] that pushes the plug toward the fixed retaining surface.
