Title: Shearing sealing ram
Inventor: SCHAEPER GARY R
IPC: E21B33/06
Filed: 2005-07-26
Granted: 2010-02-09
Abstract: The present invention provides a method, apparatus, and system to shear a tubular member disposed in a well and seal the wellbore using a unique blade seal. In at least one embodiment, the blade seal is adapted to interface with opposing rams in a blowout preventer. The blade seal uses a combination of arcuate surfaces with a common centerpoint to interface with corresponding surfaces in a ram block of a ram. The blade seal retains sealing capabilities used for wells and at the same time reduces the forces on the ram body to reduce failures from overpressurization. Further, the blade seal can be used in existing blowout preventers bodies that heretofore have been overstressed by prior art designs.
Patent CA-2576800-C (CA)
Title: Accelerated data switching on symmetric multiprocessor systems using port affinity
Inventor: KATHAIL PRADEEP
IPC: H04L12/50
Filed: 2005-07-26
Granted: 2016-10-04
Abstract: A router that includes a plurality of processors (SMPs) where there is "affinity" between particular processors and particular interfaces: Each of the router's interfaces are assigned to one of the processors. A packet arriving at a particular interface will be handled by the processor having an affinity to that particular interface. If the packet's egress is on an interface assigned to the same processor, then the output process will also be handled by that processor. If the egress interface has an affinity to a different processor, then the packet is handed over to the other processor for egress. The data structures that must be retrieved from memory to handle a packet are often associated with the interfaces through which the packet passes. Thus, having a particular processor handle all the packets that pass through a particular interface insures that the data structures needed to handle the packets will more likely be stored in the processor's cache and less likely be the object of inter-processor lock contention.

Inventor: GORSUCH THOMAS E
IPC: H04W74/00
Filed: 1999-05-26
Granted: 2015-01-06
Abstract: A.technique for providing high speed data service over standard wireless connections via an unique integration of protocols and existing cellular signaling, such as is available with Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) type systems through more efficient allocation of access to CDMA channels. For example, when more users exist than channels, the invention determines a set of probabilities for which users will require channel access at which times, and dynamically assigns channel resources accordingly. Channel resources are allocated according to a buffer monitoring scheme provided on forward and reverse links between a base station and multiple subscriber units. Each buffer is monitored over time for threshold levels of data to be transmitted in that buffer. For each buffer, a probability is calculated that indicates how often the specific buffer will need to transmit data and how much data will be transmitted. This probability takes into account the arrival rates of data into the buffer, as well as which thresholds within the buffer are exceeded, as well as which resources in the form of channels are already allocated to the subscriber unit.

Abstract: L'invention porte sur un adhésif dentaire réactif, monocomposant, présentant une meilleure performance telle que la performance d'adhésion par une application monocouche simple, sans qu'il soit nécessaire d'effectuer un mordançage séparé, un prétraitement primaire ou une étape de liaison.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif pour réaliser une rétraction sans fil du tissu de sillon gingival qui comprend une digue profilée pour être adaptée sur une dent. La digue a une paroi périphérique définissant un puits. La paroi périphérique peut être soit perméable, soit imperméable à des rayons lumineux et ouverte au moins à une extrémité. Le puits de la digue est prérempli d'une quantité prédéterminée d'un matériau de rétraction liquide ayant une viscosité importante ou une consistance de mastic. La digue dentaire préchargée est adaptée sur une dent préparée de sorte que lorsque une pression est appliquée sur la digue de dent, le matériau de rétraction est déplacé sous la pression et poussé dans le sillon, amenant le tissu gingival à se rétracter à l'écart de la dent pour agrandir le sillon gingival. Dans un mode de réalisation de l'invention, la structure de la digue permet au matériau de rétraction de lier mécaniquement ou d'adhérer aux surfaces internes de la digue, permettant au matériau de rétraction d'être enlevé simultanément avec la digue pour laisser un sillon agrandi propre. Dans un autre mode de réalisation, la coiffe est remplie d'un matériau de dilatation. Dans un autre mode de réalisation, la coiffe est remplie d'un matériau poreux compressible imprégné.
