Patent CA-2338671-C (CA)
Inventor: DAVIDSON DAVID LEE
IPC: H01H71/46
Filed: 2001-02-27
Granted: 2009-11-03
Abstract: A circuit breaker has a set of remotely controllable secondary contacts connected in series with the main contacts which provide overcurrent protection. The secondary contacts are opened and closed by a latching solenoid having a close coil and an open coil which are separately connected to switched terminals of a first switch. A voltage source, which may be ac, dc or pulsed, is connected to the common terminal of the first switch through a rectifier. The first switch is coupled to the plunger of the latching solenoid which opens and closes the set of secondary contacts and enables the coil which operates the set of secondary contacts to the opposite state. Energization of the enabled coil is completed by additional, remotely located switches connected between each coil and ground. A status line connected to one of the switched terminals of the first switch is energized when the associated coil is enabled to indicate the open/close status of the set of secondary contacts.

Abstract: In an IP-based Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) 2000 packet-data cellular telecommunications network, a method and system for handing over a dormant Mobile Node (MN) to a target packet zone. According to the invention, first the dormant MN sends an origination request message to the target Base Station Controller and Packet Control Function (BSC/PCF), which further sends a registration request comprising an indication that the MN is dormant to a Packet Data Service Node (PDSN). The PDSN replies to the BSC/PCF with a registration reply message for requesting the establishment of a traffic channel for the MN, and for indicating that it has data packets ready to be sent to the MN, such as for example Link Control Protocol (LCP) data packets for use in the negotiation of a new Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) connection. The registration reply message comprises an indication such as for example a Data ready to Sent (DRS) parameter set to 1. The BSC/PCF establishes the traffic channel and forwards the data packets to the MN. Following the receipt of the registration reply in the BSC/PCF, the paging of the MN is avoided.

Title: Therapeutic anti-fungal nail preparation
Inventor: REEVES STANLEY FORREST
IPC: A61P31/10
Filed: 1999-11-15
Granted: 2007-08-07
Abstract: A therapeutic solution and application procedure for curing nail fungus infections or Onychomycosis comprising a combination of an anti-fungal agent with DMSO in an anhydrous solution of Polyglycol, and including a secondary anti-inflammatory agent. The DMSO acts as a delivery vehicle so that active anti-fungal agents such as Miconazole in combination with an anti-inflammatory compound such as ibuprofen can be delivered directly to fungal infected areas under and aroun d the nail. The DMSO, Miconazole, and ibuprofen are dissolved in a viscous solution of Polyglycol so that the combined ingredients may be applied directly to the affected nails with superior penetration. The therapeutic solution is formulated by dissolving the Miconazole into the Polyglycol over heat and dissolving ibuprofen into DMSO over additional heat to form a second, and then combining the two solutions together to form the therapeutic solution. Repeated applications of the resulting solution on Onychomycosis infected nails over one 4-6 week period yields satisfactory result rates as high as 85-90 % without augmenting the therapy with systemic drugs. Most versions of the therapeutic solution are anticipated to not require a prescription.

Title: Treatment of aqueous media containing electrically charged compounds
Inventor: GOULAO CRESPO JOAO P S
IPC: C02F3/00
Filed: 2000-12-04
Granted: 2008-10-07
Abstract: This invention provides a method of reducing the concentration of at least one electrically charged compound present in aqueous feedstock (5), such as water and waste water. The feedstock to be treated is continuously supplied to one surface of a selectively permeable, electrically charged membrane (2) contained within a module (1). Simultaneously an aqueous reaction medium, containing an active microbial culture, contacts with the opposite face of the membrane (2). The microbial culture, fed with selected nutrients and salts, is capable to convert at least one electrically charged compound, after it permeates through the wall of the membrane (2) to by-products. The membrane is substantially impermeable to electrically uncharged compounds. The ion-exchange properties of the membrane allow avoiding secondary pollution of the treated water by metabolic by-products and residual nutrients from the reaction medium. The membrane separates physically the polluted water stream (5) from the reaction medium, which assures that the treated water (6) does never directly contact with the microbial culture.
