Title: Verrou a reservoir reagissant a un changement de pression
Inventor: PRATT JOHN D
IPC: B64C1/14
Filed: 2003-06-16
Granted: 2011-08-23
Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un appareil permettant de maintenir un panneau en position fermée et de libérer ce panneau lors de l'application de changements résultant d'un changement de pression dans une zone contiguë audit panneau. Ledit appareil comprend un mécanisme de verrou fixé à une structure doté d'un boulon destiné à coopérer avec le panneau correspondant. Le mécanisme de verrou peut être retenu sur le panneau correspondant à l'aide du boulon coopérant avec la structure. Un dispositif sensible à la pression permet de détecter un changement de pression sur un côté du panneau et donc de faciliter la libération du boulon en réponse à un changement de pression comprise dans une plage prédéterminée ou d'une force prédéterminée. Le mécanisme de verrou et le dispositif sensible à la pression permettent de ventiler un seul côté du panneau ou de communiquer avec celui-ci. Un réservoir disposé sur côté du panneau communique avec une chambre sensible à la pression du dispositif sensible à la pression. Le réservoir est généralement placé sur le même côté du panneau afin de fournir un volume de pression généralement isolé de la pression ambiante, tel que pendant un événement de décompression. Le procédé consiste à maintenir un mécanisme de verrouillage en position fermée pouvant être soumis à un changement de pression et à détecter ce changement de pression sur un seul côté du panneau.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for terminating an end of an optical cable is disclosed such that coaxial tubes of the cable and fibers therein are all prevented from moving relative to one another. For some embodiments, the coaxial tubes crimp together by a mechanical crimp that compresses the outer tube onto the inner tube without roller crimping. A fiber retention subassembly crimps to one of the coaxial tubes, and an adhesive fills the fiber retention subassembly, thereby fixing the fibers therein and isolating tension from the ends of the fibers that extend from the fiber retention subassembly. The ends of the fibers of the optical cable connect with fibers of another optical cable or device by a fusion splice. A splice cover holds and/or seals the spliced section and prevents relative movement between the optical cables or the optical cable and the device at the spliced section.

Title: Improvement in load supporting structure
Inventor: BAKHT BAIDAR
IPC: E04B5/04
Filed: 2005-01-19
Granted: 2009-06-09
Abstract: A load supporting structure such as a bridge deck is mounted on two spaced beams and includes a pre-cast concrete panel with a plurality of transverse tension straps attached to the edges of the panel by anchoring studs attached to the tension member and embedded within the panel such the tension straps- prevent spreading of the panel so that loads are transferred from an upper surface of the panel to the beams by forming a compressive arch within the panel. A concrete deck slab is cast over the pre-cast panel and is attached to the tension straps by embedded anchor studs located on the straps outside the panel so as to form a compressive arch within the slab. The compressive arch loading avoids the use of tension reinforcing steel in the concrete which can corrode. The use of a pre-cast panel and cast slab simplifies assembly as no welding to the beams on site is required.

Patent CA-2513479-C (CA)

IPC: A61B17/00

Granted: 2013-02-26
Abstract: A surgical severing and stapling instrument, suitable for laparoscopic and endoscopic clinical procedures, clamps tissue within an end effector of an elongate channel pivotally opposed by an anvil. An E-beam firing bar moves distally through the clamped end effector to sever tissue and to drive staples on each side of the cut. The E-beam firing bar affirmatively spaces the anvil from the elongate channel to assure properly formed closed staples, especially when an amount of tissue is clamped that is inadequate to space the end effector. In particular, an upper pin of the firing bar longitudinally moves through an anvil slot and a channel slot is captured between a lower cap and a middle pin of the firing bar to assure a minimum spacing. Forming the E-beam from a thickened distal portion and a thinned proximal strip enhances manufacturability and facilitates use in such articulating surgical instruments.

Abstract: A decorative dry paint transfer laminate includes a layer of dry paint, a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer on one side of the dry paint layer, and a release liner in releasable contact with the dry paint layer on a side opposite from the pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA). The release liner has a matte release coat layer that contacts the dry paint layer. The release liner is released from the dry paint layer after the PSA side is attached to a surface. The matte release coat adheres to the dry paint layer to provide a protective function but also to transfer a decorative matte finish to the dry paint layer when the release liner is removed from it. The laminate includes a barrier layer to protect against significant discoloration of the color in the dry paint layer caused by migration of mono azo pigments from a painted surface.

Abstract: The inventive method for processing vegetable raw materials consisting in organic solvent-extracting said materials, isolating it by retention which is associated with cooling and wax filtration, separating free oxides from the thus obtained solution of extractive substances by alkali solution action, dividing the obtained neutralised solution into a neutral substance solution in the hydrocarbon solvent and a water-alkali solution of organic acid salts, acidifying said salt solution, isolating chlorophilline acids and a fatty and resin acid fraction therefrom by retention, dividing the sum of diterpenic and higher fatty acids, distilling the solvent from neutral substances and in dividing said neutral substances. The diterpenic and higher fatty acid sum is treated in a low-molecular alcohol by adding a sulphuric acid in the form of a catalyst. Said method also consists in distilling alcohol and neutralising the diterpenic acids and catalyst, extracting the higher fatty acid ethers, acidifying the water-alkali solution and extracting isolated diterpenic acids, distilling said solvent and in producing a rodent repellent. The neutral substances are subsequently extracted into acetone and C1-C3 alcohol. Afterwards, during acetone treatment, the concentrates of higher fatty acid esters are produced in association with triterpenic alcohols, stearins, higher fatty alcohols and an acetone-soluble residue. During the residue treatment by alcohol, the sum of diterpenic acids is separated, and the saponification of said acids makes it possible to produce a polyprenol concentrate for separating polyprenols therefrom by chromatography.

Abstract: A survival suit (10) including two inner bladders (50), (60) filled with air exhaled from the user to provide warmth and floatation. The first inner bladder (50) is located against the user's back that covers the entire dorsal region. Located behind the firs inner bladder (50) is a second inner bladder (60) that acts as an insulation layer when submerged under water. Both the first and second inner bladders (50), (60) are filled with fibrous filler material (80) to provide insulation and allow exhaled air to flow freely therein. An air conduit (74) extends from the user's mouth to the second inner bladder (60). Formed between the first and second inner bladders (50), (60) is an air passageway (55) that delivers air from the second inner bladder (60) into the first inner bladder (50).  Air outlet ports (58) located on the first inner bladder (50) allows exhaled air to escape into the body cavity (14) and that completely surround the user. The exhaled air in the body cavity (14) eventually escapes through the face opening (23).

Abstract: Structure conductrice pour les électrodes d'une batterie secondaire comprenant un noyau dans un boîtier, deux bornes principales fixées aux extrémités du noyau, un ensemble d'électrodes enroulé autour du noyau, deux fermoirs qui tiennent les électrodes en contact électrique avec les bornes principales et deux écrous pour fixer ces composants au boîtier. Le contact électrique entre la borne positive, la borne négative et les bornes principales s'obtient au moyen des fermoirs, sans la moindre soudure. Ainsi, le mode d'utilisation de l'invention est grandement simplifié et le coût de l'équipement est grandement réduit. De plus, les bornes positive et négative partagent une grande surface de contact électrique avec la zone de collecte, ce qui réduit légèrement la résistance interne.
