Patent CA-2459143-A1 (CA)
Inventor: CAPORUSSO ALESSANDRO
IPC: F15B1/00
Filed: 2004-02-27
Abstract: A pipe bending machine has a slider connected to a piston for actuating a drawing roller movable during an working pass between a rest position and a bending position. A flow control means is provided for adjusting the pressure in both piston chambers allowing the drawing roller to precisely reach the bending position at the end of a bending stroke, and the rest position at the end of the return stroke.  Accurate control of the slider motion during one working pass is obtained without adjusting the roller speed.  Elongated pipes can be round shaped along curvatures with differing radiuses without leaving marks on the pipe surface while avoiding mechanical stoppers or costly roller speed adjusters.

The effect of these enzymes is that the deposition of pitch is reduced, and bleaching and de-inking effects are also observed on the paper pulp and the resulting paper material. The fatty acid oxidizing enzyme can be used in combination with a substrate, with proteases, lipases, xylanases, cutinases, oxidoreductases, cellulases, endoglucanases amylases, mannanases, steryl esterases, and/or cholesterol esterases; or with surfactants and other adjuvants.
Patent CA-2462021-A1 (CA)
Inventor: HAMILTON NEIL
IPC: G06F1/32
Filed: 2004-03-26
Abstract: First and second functional circuit blocks (FCBs) control the operation of a clock circuits coupled thereto in dependence upon processing requirements of the FCBs as well as power consumption considerations. When the FCB is not processing data, the clock circuit coupled to that FCB has one of its clock signal frequency reduced or is disabled so that the FCB consumes significantly reduced amounts of electrical power.  Through controlling clock frequency and enabling and disabling of the clock circuit, electrical power consumption of the FCB is advantageously reduced.

Abstract: A device for extracting bodily fluid (such as an ISF sample) includes a penetration member with a channel (e.g., a hollow needle) and a fluid flow regulator (for example, a narrow-bore cylinder) disposed within the channel. The penetration member is configured for penetrating a target site (such as a dermal tissue target site) and subsequently residing within the target site and extracting a bodily fluid sample therefrom. The fluid flow regulator is adapted to control (e.g., reduce or minimize variation in) bodily fluid flow rate through the penetration member. In addition, the presence of the fluid flow regulator in the channel of the penetration member serves to reduce sensor lag by reducing the dead volume of the penetration member. A  method for extracting bodily fluid from a target site includes providing the aforementioned device. Next, the target site is penetrated with the penetration member of the device. Subsequently, bodily fluid is extracted from the target site via the penetration member and the fluid flow regulator of the device.
