IPC: E21B36/00
Filed: 2006-10-20
Abstract: A system for heating a hydrocarbon containing formation includes a conduit located in an opening in the formation. An electrical conductor is positioned inside the conduit. The electrical conductor forms a heater which is electrically isolated from the formation thereby reducing electrical losses to the formation and is electrically coupled to the conduit at or near an end portion of the conduit so that the electrical conductor and the conduit are electrically coupled in series. Electrical current flows in the electrical conductor in a substantially opposite direction to electrical current flow in the conduit during application of electrical current to the system. The flow of electrons is substantially confined to the inside of the conduit by the electromagnetic field generated from electrical current flow in the electrical conductor so that the outside surface of the conduit is at or near substantially zero potential at 25 0C. The conduit is configured to generate heat and heat the formation during application of electrical current to the system.

Patent CA-2636308-A1 (CA)
Title: Hybrid stent
Inventor: RICHTER JACOB
IPC: A61F2/82
Filed: 2007-01-12
Abstract: A stent is provided with a series of short pieces or sections connected together by a bioresorbable polymer. The stent sections are designed to separate or articulate with time as the polymer biodegrades. The time of separation can be controlled by the characteristics of the bioresorbable polymer to allow the stent to be buried in neo-intima. By using a tube made of a bioresorable polymer, the continuous covering of the tubing may inhibit embolization in the first few weeks after stent implantation within the walls of a vessel and timing for removal of the tube through formulation of the bioresorable polymer can be controlled to occur when embolization is no longer a risk. When the detachment of the stent pieces or sections occurs, they are fixedly secured within the vessel and each is able to flex with the vessel independently of the other stent segments.

IPC: B31B50/72
Filed: 2007-05-08
Abstract: Le dispositif de fermeture de boîtes selon l'invention comprend des éléments de châssis fabriqués à partir de tiges rondes tubulaires ou de barreaux. Ainsi, l'eau aura tendance à s'écouler facilement de ces structures plutôt que de s'accumuler dessus, afin d'éviter d'abriter ou de favoriser la croissance de bactéries dans de telles régions du dispositif. Le dispositif de fermeture de boîte de l'invention offre également des capacités de démontage dues au fait qu'il comporte une pluralité de sous-ensembles faciles à désassembler les uns des autres, ce qui facilite le nettoyage des divers sous-ensembles (12 à 26) et du dispositif dans son entier, et l'entretien ou le remplacement des pièces qui le constituent. Plusieurs sous-ensembles du dispositif de fermeture de boîtes sont également montés de façon réversible sur le sous-ensemble tubulaire principal (12) formant châssis afin de permettre audit dispositif de fonctionner de manière réversible suivant l'une ou l'autre de deux directions différentes, en fonction de la configuration de la ligne de production.
Patent CA-2651842-A1 (CA)
IPC: H05K7/20
Filed: 2006-04-06
Abstract: A dual base plate heatsink for use in dissipating heat for electronic devices with thermal contact between fins and the base plates and manufactured without welding. Separately extruded fins are connected to both base plates by placing the fins side by side in channels in both base plates. In order to couple the base plates and finds, the base plates are maintained at a constant relative distance and a swaging tool is passed adjacent the fins and between the base plates in a direction parallel to the surface of the base plates. The swaging tool applies pressure to the base plates to thereby swage the base plates against the ends of the fins.

Title: Centralized liquid waste treatment system and method
Inventor: MALATESTA MICHAEL T
IPC: C02F1/00
Filed: 2009-02-25
Abstract: An integrated system for treatment of inorganic liquid waste is disclosed that quickly and efficiently processes large quantity batches of such liquid waste by initially removing solids and sludge and subsequently processing the liquid waste to remove other materials so that the processed liquid waste can be recycled in a conventional sewer system. Larger solids, sludge, and free phase oil are removed by the system before they enter the liquid waste processing equipment, thereby preventing damage to the processing equipment caused by these substances. The use of common liquid waste and sludge delivery lines on all of the contaminant removal reactors in the system facilitates the efficient operation of the system with a minimum of operator intervention being required.

Patent CA-2660631-A1 (CA)
Inventor: FURMAN EDWARD MICHAEL
IPC: B23K9/10
Filed: 2007-07-02
Abstract: In a welding power supply, a feedback circuit senses electrical signals from the power output studs and from remote welding sense leads. The feedback control circuit scales the electrical signals and converts the signals to binary numbers having magnitude bits and a polarity bit respectively. The binary numbers, representing the signals, are simultaneously shifted into a logic processor for calculation of a feedback signal based on the digitized input. The feedback signal is calculated based on the polarity of connectivity of the remote welding sense leads as represented by the binary numbers. The feedback signal is then fed into the power supply output controller for automatically adjusting the power output of the arc welder.
