Patent CA-2511216-C (CA)
Title: High performance knee prostheses
Inventor: OTTO JASON K
IPC: A61F2/38
Filed: 2003-12-22
Granted: 2011-02-01
Abstract: Knee prostheses (100) featuring components that more faithfully replicate the structure and function of the human knee joint in order to provide, among other benefits: greater flexion of the knee in a more natural way by promoting or at least accommodating internal tibial rotation in a controlled way, replication of the natural screw home mechanism, and controlled articulation of the tibia and femur respective to each other in a more natural way. In a preferred embodiment, such prostheses include an insert component (400) disposed between a femoral component (200) and a tibial component, the insert component (400) preferably featuring among other things a reversely contoured posteriolateral bearing surface (444) that helps impart internal rotation to the tibia as the knee flexes. Other surfaces can also be specially shaped to achieve similar results, preferably using iterative automated techniques that allow testing and iterative design taking into account a manageable set of major forces acting on the knee during normal functioning, together with information that is known about natural knee joint kinetics and kinematics.

Title: Multiphase motor having different winding configurations for respective speed ranges
Inventor: PYNTIKOV ALEXANDER
IPC: H02P6/14
Filed: 2004-03-25
Granted: 2007-01-23
Abstract: Reconfiguration of stator winding sections of each phase of a multiphase motor is controlled for successive ranges of speed during which the motor can be expected to operate to obtain optimum operating efficiency throughout the entire operating range. All winding sections for a stator element are energized throughout the motor operating speed range but connected, through appropriate switches, in different circuit configurations for respective portions of the speed range. The switches are activated by a controller in response to a sensed motor speed signal. The reconfiguration of stator winding sections may be incorporated within a motor control system that is adaptive to control various motor parameters in response to sensed conditions as well as user input commands.

Title: Continouos casting installation for the electromagnetic rotation of molten metal moving inside the nozzle
Inventor: GALPIN JEAN-MARIE
IPC: B22D41/62
Filed: 2004-06-08
Granted: 2010-03-30
Abstract: The invention relates to a continuous casting installation for metals, particularly steel, in which the submerged nozzle (8) is surrounded by an annular electromagnetic inductor (1) with a magnetic field that rotates around the casting axis, which is intended to drive the molten metal in axial rotation therewith. The invention is characterised in that the aforementioned inductor is of the polyphase type with a magnetic field passing therethrough and is equipped with a pair of projecting poles (3) per phase. Moreover, the end of each projecting pole opposite the nozzle is provided with a lateral narrowing (12) which increases the distance separating the polar ends (4). In this way, the inductor is extremely compact and very powerful and can deliver an intense traversing field into the central part of the nozzle, using a high-frequency primary current, such as to produce the effective rotation of the molten metal moving therein. The invention is particularly suitable for the continuous casting of slabs, using a submerged nozzle with lateral outlets.

Le circuit IS retarde le signal de sortie du circuit HC avant de mettre le photocoupleur sous tension ou hors tension. Les composantes électroniques sont homologuées pour une température de 125 degrés Celcius.
Patent CA-2529802-C (CA)
Inventor: DERTINGER STEPHEN D
IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 2004-06-28
Granted: 2012-11-13
Abstract: A method for the enumeration of micronucleated erythrocyte populations while distinguishing platelet and platelet-associated aggregates involves the use of a first fluorescent labeled antibody having binding specificity for a surface marker for reticulocytes, a second fluorescent labeled antibody having binding specificity for a surface marker for platelets, and a nucleic acid staining dye that stains DNA (micronuclei) in erythrocyte populations. Because the fluorescent emission spectra of the first and second fluorescent labeled antibodies do not substantially overlap with one another or with the emission spectra of the nucleic acid staining dye, upon excitation of the labels and dye it is possible to detect the fluorescent emission and light scatter produced by the erythrocyte populations and platelets, and count the number of cells from one or more erythrocyte populations in said sample. In particular, the use of the second antibody prevents interference by platelet-associated aggregates in the scoring procedures.

Title: A new method of expanding cord blood cells
Inventor: PROULX CHANTAL
IPC: C12N5/02
Filed: 2005-04-25
Granted: 2009-07-14
Abstract: Based on previous evidence suggesting positive effects of fever on in vivo hematopoiesis, the effect of hyperthermia on the expansion and differentiation of megakaryocytes (MKs) in ex vivo cultures of CB CD34-enriched cells has now been tested. Cells were cultured at 37~C or 39~C for 14 days in cytokine conditions optimized for MK development, and analyzed periodically by microscopy, flow cytometry and colony assays. Compared to 37~C, cultures maintained at 39~C produced much more total cells (5X), MK progenitors (9X) and total MKs (7X), and showed accelerated (3-4 days) and enhanced MK  maturation with increased yields of proplatelets and platelets (11.7X). The increased number of CD34+ cells and myeloid progenitors in the 39~C cultures also suggested a general stimulatory effect of hyperthermia on the expansion of more primitive stem/progenitor cells and of cells of other lineages.
