Patent CA-2445081-C (CA)
Inventor: WEISZ ERVIN
IPC: B60L50/15

Granted: 2011-06-28
Abstract: A differential engine with variable torque conversion. The differential engine comprises a motor, a torque conversion stage, and a loading mechanism. The motor operates at a constant speed and provides input rotational torque to the torque conversion stage. The torque conversion stage converts the input rotational torque into a rotational torque at an output shaft which is coupled to a load, for example, an automobile wheel. The torque conversion stage includes first and second differential stages which are coupled together with a pair of shafts, with the shafts rotating in opposite directions. The first differential stage comprises an input shaft which is coupled to the output shaft of the motor, and a first and second output shafts which are coupled to the respective shafts. A gear mechanism in the first differential stage translates the rotational torque from the motor to the first and second output shafts. The second differential stage comprises an output coupled to the output drive shaft, and first and second input shafts which are coupled to the respective shafts. The second differential stage includes a gear mechanism which applies a rotational torque to the output drive shaft when a difference occurs between the rotational speeds for the shafts. The rotational speeds of the shafts are varied by loading one or both of the shafts. The loading mechanisms include electrical or mechanical.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for continuously casting ingots, slabs or thin slabs in a continuous casting plant.  Said plant comprises strand guide segments (2.l to 2.n) whose distances from one another can be adjusted underneath an ingot mold (1) and which have roll pairs (4, 4') that can be subjected to the action of path-controlled or position-controlled hydraulic cylinders. The thickness of the cast strand (5) is reduced by conically adjusting its strand guide segments in a soft reduction line extending up to the crater top.  The aim of the invention is to improve the adaptation of the continuous casting plant to different operating parameters. To this end, at least one roll pair (4, 4') subjects the cast strand (5) to a size reduction in the area of its liquid core (7) between the ingot mold (1) and the soft reduction line (SR line). The invention also relates to a correspondingly designed continuous casting plant.

Granted: 2012-06-19
Abstract: An anastomotic ring device for forming a hollow rivet (ring) attachment between tissue lumens facilitates laparoscopic or endoscopic implantation by including features that facilitate assembly, specifically by forming from constituent arcuate members or petals that join with one another at a circular midpoint. Automated assembly is thereby facilitated with each longitudinal half including a "crown" of these arcuate members arranged in a cylindrical pattern with equally spaced curved points and overlapping ends. Molded arcuate members with integral hinges further enhance assembly and provide other advantages, especially when implanted with an applier capable of actuating the anastomotic ring device.

Title: Apparatus and process for dose-guided radiotherapy
Inventor: COLEMAN C NORMAN
IPC: A61B5/00
Filed: 2004-03-04
Granted: 2012-07-17
Abstract: A method and an apparatus for dose-guided radiotherapy for a patient (P) having an identified radiotherapy target utilizes a radiation detecting array (R) of radiation-sensitive dosimeters for the real-time remote measurement of radiotherapy at the radiation detecting array (R). The radiation detecting array is positioned within the patient's (P) body along the treatment path before or after the identified radiotherapy target or the device may be positioned beyond the patient (P) to measure transit dose. A radiation source (A) for emitting radiation for radiotherapy along a treatment path through the patient (P) to the identified radiotherapy target is utilized. The method includes generating a predicted dose pattern of radiation at the placed radiation detecting array (R). The predicted dose pattern assumes an on-target radiation source (A) emitting the radiotherapy beam along the treatment path through the patient (P) to the identified radiotherapy target. Gating of the radiation source (A) can occur responsive to the comparing of the predicted dose pattern of radiation to the real-time dose pattern at the radiation detecting array (R). Radiation intensity can vary between low levels to a treatment level responsive to coincidence of the predicted dose pattern of radiation to the real-time dose pattern at the radiation detecting array (R).

Abstract: A router is configured for sharing routing rules with other routers, the routing rules defining aggregated routes according to a prescribed topology.  Each routing rule, used by the router for routing a packet having a corresponding matching destination address prefix, specifies a corresponding address prefix pattern rule for extracting an identified pattern from a portion of the destination address, and a gateway address pattern rule for generating a gateway address, for a gateway providing reachability to the destination address, based on applying the identified pattern to a specified portion of the gateway address. The router generates a routing update message that describes the address prefix pattern rule and the gateway address pattern rule, and outputs the routing update message to a second router according to a prescribed distance vector routing protocol (e.g., Multiprotocol Extension for Border Gateway Protocol).
