Title: Sliding seal
Inventor: HASSEN BRIAN MAXWELL
IPC: F16L55/162
Filed: 2007-05-30
Abstract: A sliding seal (10) capable of operating effectively when encountering irregularities and changes in a surface against which it is working. The seal (10) comprises plurality of resiliently flexible seal elements (30) each having an outward extent including an outer portion (32) terminating at a seal tip (33). The outer portions (32) are spaced apart to define gaps (35) therebetween to accommodate deflection of the seal elements.

Patent CA-2663438-A1 (CA)
Inventor: KIMURA TETSUYA
IPC: B22F1/16
Filed: 2007-09-25
Abstract: This invention provides a nickel-rhenium alloy powder suitable particularly for the formation of an internal electrode layer for a stacked ceramic electronic component. The nickel-rhenium alloy powder is characterized by comprising nickel as a main component and further comprising 0.1 to 10% by weight of rhenium and 50 to 10,000 ppm, in terms of silicon atom, of silicon. The powder, optionally together with other additive(s), is homogeneously mixed and dispersed in an organic vehicle to prepare a conductor paste. The use of the nickel-rhenium alloy powder particularly for the formation of an internal electrode for a stacked ceramic electronic component is advantageous in that, even in a very fine powder, the start and progress of sintering in a sintering step are slow, and, thus, the sintering shrink behavior of the electrode layer can be rendered similar to the sintering shrink behavior of the ceramic layer. Further, spheroidizing of the electrode attributable to oversintering does not take place. Therefore, an internal electrode, which is thinner and denser and has excellent continuity, can be provided.

Title: Methods and apparatus for security device portal sensing
Inventor: LASTINGER ROC
IPC: G08B29/04
Filed: 2007-12-13
Abstract: A security device, according to various aspects of the present invention, detects movement of a provided portal cover. The security device includes a sensor, a bias magnet, and a processor. The sensor provides indicia of a magnitude of a magnetic flux through the sensor. The bias magnet provides the magnetic flux through the sensor. The processor detects a change in the magnitude of the magnetic flux outside an upper boundary and a lower boundary of a first threshold and a second threshold respectively. The sensor does not move with respect to the magnet. Movement between the sensor and the portal cover changes the magnitude of the magnetic flux through the sensor. The processor determines an average value of a series of values of the indicia of the magnitude of the magnetic flux that fall within the upper boundary and the lower boundary of the first threshold. The upper boundary and the lower boundary of the first threshold and the second threshold respectively are set in accordance with the average value.

Title: A high sensitivity multiparameter method for rare event analysis in a biological sample
Inventor: CONNELLY MARK CARLE
IPC: G01N33/53
Filed: 2009-07-24
Abstract: A sample of blood containing CTCs, or other cells of interest, is stained with fluorescent markers for image analysis and scanned to identify the presence and location within the cartridge of target cells or subcellular elements. A sample containing desired target cells or subcellular elements is then further processed, in part by photobleaching the sample, so that those same targets may be re-analyzed with additional biomarkers conjugated to the same or different fluorochromes using the same imaging criteria that were used for the initial analysis. The present invention has applications with targets such as circulating epithelial, cells, circulating tumor cells, circulating endothelial cells, leukocytes, lymphocyte subsets, cells containing an organelle or receptor of interest, cellular debris, disrupted cells and their debris, or any other formed element that might be captured and imaged. The invention provides a means to further interrogate individual targets of interest, especially when coupled with genetic analysis such as FISH.
