Patent CA-2468564-A1 (CA)
Inventor: COOK HAROLD JR
IPC: B21D51/46
Filed: 2002-11-27
Abstract: The disclosed invention describes a container end that (100) can be easily opened and does not rely on a conventional metal tab, riveted onto the end, thereby avoiding the problems and the cost associated with such a tab. The invention utilizes a traditional container end shell with a separate and distinct piece that is formed independently and is inserted into a countersink (102) which is placed on the outer surface of the container end shell. The removal of this separate piece exerts a force or causes a change in the properties of the container wall in the countersink area, initiating and proliferating a discontinuity in the container wall, thereby creating an opening in the container. This change in the properties of the container wall can be mechanical, chemical, thermal or any other modality, which has the ability to influence the integrity of the container wall.

Patent CA-2480657-A1 (CA)
Inventor: HERCZEG ATTILA
IPC: B01D29/00
Filed: 2003-04-17
Abstract: The present invention improves the flow dynamics about the leading edges of the sealed apertures within a filtration cassette by flowing a sealing resin so that it protrudes into the main passageway defined by the porous screens thereof. The sealing resin defines at least an end portion of a fluid channel in each passageway. Desirably, the sealing resin extends into the passageways so as to significantly reduce or eliminate the formation of non-uniformities in fluid flow therethrough. The porous mesh may define apertures shaped so as to direct the resin during vacuum drawing to a desired location in the flow channels. The porous mesh may further include a shaped perimetrical edge which also assists in the drawing of a flowable resin into the porous mesh to further define the flow channels so as to significantly reduce or eliminate the formation of non-uniformities in the fluid flow.

Title: Light source stabilisation
Inventor: JEFFREYS TIMOTHY
IPC: G01D5/353
Filed: 2003-05-13
Abstract: An apparatus for sensing data from a remote optical sensor (16) has its frequency stabilised by balancing the outputs of narrow band filter (28, 30), spaced about a desired frequency (36) positioned at about the 3db down points (40) of a broad band light source (10) using voltage control, current control or temperature control to vary the frequency of the wide band light source (10). Difference between the outputs through the two narrow band filters (28, 30) can be used to drive an amplifier (48) to correct the frequency of the broad band light source. The outputs through the two narrow band filters (28, 30) can be converted (52) to binary numbers and fed to a microprocessor (56) which is used, via analog conversion (60), to drive the amplifier (48). The broad band light source (10) can be pulse modulated (68) to provide temporally separate light pulses (92, 94) through each of the narrow band filters (28, 30), measured at separate times. The corrective output to the amplifier (48) can be governed by a ratio between the outputs through the narrow band filters (28, 30) rather than by a difference there between.
