Title: A method and a device for measuring of concentrations
Inventor: WENG JONNY
IPC: D21H23/78
Filed: 2003-01-16
Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for measur-ing concentrations especially in a pulp suspension, from which a sample (3) has been taken. The sample (3) is collected in a measuring vessel (2), in which a piston (6) is guided upwards and downwards in order to press the sample (3) from each direction through a measuring sensor (5) connected at the side of the measuring vessel via com-municating tubes (4,4') connected in an upper and an lower position to the measurement vessel (2), whereby the sample (3) is stirred totally for eliminating of a flocculation in the same, whereupon a measurement of the concentration of the sample (3) is made either during the movement upwards or downwards of the piston (6) in the measuring vessel (2) and first when the speed of the sample (3) through the measuring sensor (5) is constant and the sample has been homogenized at least after some movement upwards and downwards of the piston. The device consists of a sample treatment unit (1), in which communicating tubes (4,4') connect the upper (10) and lower (10') por-tion of a measuring sensor (5), in said measuring vessel a piston (6) is guidable upwards and downwards to press the sample (3) through the measuring sensor (5) from each direction and said diameter of said piston (6) mainly corresponds to the inner contour of the measuring vessel (2), the flow rate of the sample being controllable via the speed of the piston and the measurement of the concentration of the sample is practicable both during the movement upwards and downwards of the piston (6).

Patent CA-2430575-A1 (CA)
Title: Valve mechanism for infusion fluid systems
Inventor: COLLINS GREGORY R
IPC: A61M1/14
Filed: 2001-12-07
Abstract: A method and an apparatus are provided for preventing retrograde flow of fluid, e.g., blood products, into a source of sterile substitution fluid (50).  The apparatus of the present invention includes a controllable pinch valve member (110) that is placed on a section of a conduit (90) which carries sterile substitution fluid to an extracorporeal circuit (30). In one embodiment, control over the valve member (110) is based on a control unit (120) using fluid pressures that are sensed upstream and downstream of the valve member (110) by upstream sensor (121) and downstream pressure (122) respectively. The valve member (110) is preferably opened only when the upstream pressure is greater than the downstream pressure. This assures that the substitution fluid flows only in a single direction when the pinch valve member (110) completely occludes the conduit (90) when in a closed position.  Therefor, blood will not contaminate the sterile fluid by being drawn into the conduit (90) due to pressure differences.

Patent CA-2432337-A1 (CA)
Inventor: STRATICO SIMONE
IPC: H02K15/095
Filed: 2003-06-13
Abstract: An improved needle solution is provided for winding wire coils onto dynamo-electric machine components such as electric motor stators and armatures. The improved needle solution decreases the opportunity for collision between the needle apparatus and the machine component onto which wire coils are being wound and enables the winding of machine components with small interior hollows that may not allow conventional needle solutions to pass through.        The improved needle solution further provides increased accuracy in wire coil stratification by stabilizing the stratification motion of the apparatus using guide structures that engage the :needle arm. The needle solution further provides open access to the wire being fed through the apparatus for winding onto the machine component. Multiple needles may be accommodated by the apparatus to simultaneously wind multiple wire coils onto a machine component using the improved needle solution.

Title: Dispensing closure with unitary structure for retaining a pressure-actuated flexible valve
Inventor: ROHR ROBERT D
IPC: B65D47/44
Filed: 1992-01-07
Abstract: A dispensing closure is provided for an opening in an squeeze-type container and includes a body defining a dispensing passage for communicating between the container interior and the container exterior through a container opening.  A flexible, self-sealing valve is provided with a peripheral flange, and the valve is mounted in the body for opening in response to increased container pressure.  The body is a unitary construction and is molded from thermoplastic material with an upstanding peripheral wall that is subsequently deformed over the valve flange to retain the valve in the body.  A preferred process for making the closure includes the steps of molding a unitary closure body with a seat for the valve flange surrounded by a peripheral wall, disposing the valve flange on the seat, and then deforming an upper portion of the wall into a generally annular configuration extending radially inwardly to overlie the seat and clamp the valve flange between the seat and the deformed portion of the wall.

Title: A method and system for a low-overhead mobility management protocol in the internet protocol layer
Inventor: CHITRAPU PRABHAKAR R
IPC: H04W8/26
Filed: 2002-02-14
Abstract: A system and method for supporting mobile Internet communication is provided which employs a plurality of Routers and a plurality of Mobile Nodes (MNs). Each Router has a unique communication address. Each MN is associated with a home Retour. Each Router has an associated Mobile Node Location List identifying each MN for which the Router is the home Router and the communication address of a Router corresponding to a current location of eac h such MN. Each MN is movable from an old location where the MN communicates with the Internet via one Router to a current location where the MN communicates with the Internet via a different Router. Communication at the current location via the different Router is established by communicating to the MN's home Router the communication address of the different Router as th e communication address corresponding to the MN's current location. Accordingl y, a data communication from a corersponding node (CN) to a selected MN is communicated to the selected MN by accessing the Mobile Node Location List o f the selected MN's home Router to determine the communication address corresponding to the selected MN's current location and directing the data communication to that determined communication address.
