Title: Lens delivery system
Inventor: BROWN KYLE
IPC: A61F9/00
Filed: 2004-02-11
Granted: 2008-09-02
Abstract: A lens delivery system having a plunger, an injector body and a nozzle portion connected to the injector body, the nozzle portion having a hinged lid and a hollow body with a lens holding platform formed beneath the hinged lid. The inside of the hinged lid contains ribs that help to hold a lens stationary on the platform when the lid is closed. The cartridge has an elongated nozzle tube or tip with a bore, the bore communicating with the lens holding platform. The bottom of the bore is rounded, which causes the edges of the lens between the lens haptics to fold upwardly as the lens is pushed down the bore from the platform by the plunger. The central portion of the optic of the lens is prevented from moving upward during folding by a projection in the lid between the ribs. A removable pin fits into the lid and prevents the lens from moving down the bore of the tip during shipment and storage. The plunger and injector body contain a ratcheting mechanism that helps prevent the plunger from moving during shipment and storage. The system of the present invention allows the lens to be stored, shipped and delivered into an eye without any additional devices and without handling the lens. The folding mechanism of the present invention is also suitable for folding lenses made from a soft acrylic material as well as other materials such as silicones and hydrogels.

Title: Circuit breaker inducing mechanism for breaking tack weld
Inventor: SIMMS KEVIN ANTHONY
IPC: H01H51/22
Filed: 2004-04-02
Granted: 2012-05-22
Abstract: A circuit breaker includes a housing having an elongated pivot opening, a movable arm, a fixed contact and a movable contact mounted on the arm. The contacts and the arm cooperate to provide closed, pivot and open states. The pivot opening mounts a pivot end of the arm for pivotal and longitudinal movement. A solenoid includes a plunger coupled to the arm. The plunger moves between deactuating and actuating positions to provide the open and closed states, respectively. The plunger has a pivot position between the deactuating and actuating positions. The pivot end moves to a first longitudinal position in the pivot and open states, and moves to a second longitudinal position in the closed state. When the contacts are welded closed, the solenoid provides insufficient force to move the plunger to the deactuating position until after the pivot end moves at least substantially toward the first longitudinal position.

Title: Ad-hoc network and method of routing communications in a communication network
Inventor: GUTIERREZ JOSE A
IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 2004-05-17
Granted: 2012-08-14
Abstract: An ad-hoc low rate - wireless personal area network (LR-WPAN) includes an ad-hoc network coordinator having a first processor, a first memory, and a first communication interface; and a plurality of ad-hoc network devices. Each of the devices includes a second processor, a second memory, and a second communication interface for communication with the first communication interface of the coordinator or with the second communication interface of another one of the devices. A simple, low=cost, incremental source routing is employed. The first memory stores complete communication routes for messages from the coordinator through at least one of the devices to other devices. The second memory of each of the devices stores an identification of another device to forward a message from the second communication interface of a corresponding one of the devices toward the coordinator's first communication interface and through the second communication interface of that other device.
Patent CA-2470335-C (CA)
Title: Method of using electrical and acoustic anisotropy measurements for fracture identification
Inventor: MOLLISON RICHARD A
IPC: G01V3/28
Filed: 2002-12-13
Granted: 2008-06-03
Abstract: Measurements made by a cross-dipole acoustic logging tool in a borehole are processed to determine the principal directions of azimuthal anisotropy of a subsurface formation. Measurements such as in data tracks (601, 603) are also made for correlation and comparison purposes of a Gamma Ray Log (621), a Caliper Log (623), a Density Log (631) and a Neutron Porosity Log (633).  Measurements indicative of azimuthal resistivity logging variations and conductivity logging variations (605, 607, 609, 611) are also made with a multicomponent induction logging tool that is capable of performing electrical measurements at a number of different frequencies that also covers a range of different downhole depths. These electrical measurements are processed using the principal direction determined from acoustic measurements to give an estimate of azimuthal resistivity variations. Based on modeling results, azimuthal resistivity variations are interpreted to estimate a fracture depth in the rock for known fluids therein.

Title: Device for dispensing a paper product
Inventor: KASPER KAZMIER J
IPC: B26D1/04
Filed: 2004-07-12
Granted: 2008-02-19
Abstract: A device for feeding anc cutting a paper product includes a motor-driven feed mechanism for indexing the paper product into the device and a motor-driven cutting mechanism for creating a linear cut in the paper product. The cutting mechanism includes a pair of platens disposed on opposite sides of the paper product and an instrument for creating the linear cut. The instrument includes a cutting block slidably mounted on a pair of horizontally disposed rods, a knife blade affixed to the cutting block and a wheel rotatably mounted on the cutting block. In use, as the cutting block is driven along the horizontal rods, the wheel rolls on top of the upper platen which, in turn, sandwiches the paper product tightly between the pair of platens. With the paper product secured in place, displacement of the cutting block causes the knife blade to cut the paper product.

IPC: B21C1/18
Filed: 2004-07-30
Granted: 2007-06-12
Abstract: A method for draw forming a desired contour to the outer diameter of a tubular work piece provides that the selected work piece have a wall thickness uniform throughout its length. The outer diameter of selected work piece is reduced along essentially only a part of the starting metal blank by drawing the metal blank only partly through a die or only partly through each one of a succession of dies. The resulting drawn reduced diameter will have essentially the same wall thickness as the starting blank. If a thinner wall thickness is desired on the reduced outside diameter, an internal mandrel can be inserted in the starting tube, which will work with the draw die to decrease the resulting wall thickness of the drawn tube to an amount less than the starting tube. The workpiece recovered after the drawing method is useful for producing an automotive fuel tank filler tube or an automotive instrument panel support beam.

Abstract: A polymer composite structure having resin matrix interlayers reinforced with shape memory alloy (SMA) particles. In one preferred form Nitinol® alloy particles are used for the SMA particles. The Nitinol® alloy particles may comprise cylindrical, oval or spherical shaped particles and are intermixed in the resin of the resin matrix interlayer(s) of the composite structure. The SMA particles provide superelastic, reversible strain properties that significantly improve the damage resistance, damage tolerance (e.g.  compression-after-impact (CAI) strength) and elevated temperature performance of the composite structure without negatively affecting the hot-wet compression strength of the composite structure. The polymer composite structure is ideally situated for aerospace and aircraft applications where lightweight and structurally strong materials are essential.
