Abstract: A sailboat includes a sail assembly with opposing upper and lower ends, a leading edge and a trailing edge. The sail assembly is normally offset from the hull and oriented for generation of a propelling force substantially free of heeling moments. A support structure supports the sail assembly for rotation about an axis inclined relative to vertical and substantially parallel to the leading edge. The support structure includes an upper rotary joint mounting the upper end of the sail assembly to the support structure and a lower rotary joint mounting the lower end of the sail assembly to the support structure. The rotary joints are positioned to allow unobstructed rotation of the sail assembly fully through degrees about the inclined axis. At least part of the support structure is mounted for rotation together with the sail assembly and the inclined axis relative to the hull, largely eliminating weather helm. Controls are provided to permit adjustment of the angular orientation of the sail assembly about the inclined axis thereby adjusting propelling force.

Title: Implant device used in mimimally invasive facet joint hemi-arthroplasty
Inventor: PETERSEN DAVID A
IPC: A61F2/44
Filed: 2005-11-21
Abstract: A metallic inverted L-shaped implant is used to resurface the superior facet of the inferior vertebrae limited to the facet joints located on the spine, Occiput-Cl through L5-S1. The metallic implant is highly polished on its exterior and textured on its interior surface. It is mechanically crimped in place without the use of cement or pedicle screws. Permanent fixation occurs when bone in-grows onto a rough, porous surface on the inside of the implant.  The implant employed in a hemi-arthroplasty method resurfaces half of the facet joint to provide for smooth, pain free joint articulation in deteriorated or diseased spinal facet joints without the need for major surgery or rehabilitation at considerably less risk to the patient.
Patent CA-2590347-A1 (CA)
Title: Internal and external wood rot indentification, for optimum trimming, using soft x-rays
Inventor: LIZOTTE MARCEL
IPC: G01N23/04
Filed: 2007-05-29
Abstract: A wood-quality system and method, comprising an imaging system to view lumber, image processing hardware and software, and an output to communicate to a trim-saw system where the lumber should be cut to optimize recovery. The ima ge processing system specifically identifies areas of rot using soft x-rays and image processing software. Although trees produce wood in a continuum of sizes, most lumber is sold i n selected standard sizes. It is common practise in the softwood industry for pieces to be trimmed to a standard length before drying, but this trimming is often based solely on surface profile information (wane - areas of bark and the associated volume where there is no wood (usually from the top of the tree)), or surface profile and visua l examination for surface rot (usually from the base of the tree). Therefore, trimming removes not only bonafide scrap, but also removes sound wood, so as to produce lumber of a standard size. If rot is identified at a later stage in processing, an additional trimming may be required - and to maintain the lumber at a standard length it is often a who le two foot length of scrap which will be generated. Failure to identify rot internal to lumber is also to be avoided, as it reduces the quality of the piece. Additional losses, inherent in unidentified rot, exist in the form of energy wasted in drying non-saleable wood, wasted drying-kiln space, etc. Conversely, rot evident at the surface of a piece may be only superficial, a nd quite acceptable in some grades of wood. To trim it would be wasteful. This inspection system is ideally suited to being placed on the 'green-chain ,' before the first trimming and drying operation is performed. It may also be applied to lumber passing longitudinally, as it does in the area of a planer mill.</SDO AB>
