Patent CA-2225453-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SIMHON ELLIOT D
IPC: A61K49/04
Filed: 1996-06-24
Abstract: This invention involves synthesis and use of a class of compounds having fomula (I) wherein: p and q are each independently integers of from 2 to 3; r is an integer of from 0 to 4; R2, R3 and R4 are each independently selected from the group consisting of H, alkyl, alkenyl, aryl, arylalkyl, alkoxy, alkylthio, alkenoxy, alkenylthio, aryloxy, arylthio, alkyl interrupted by one or more oxa, alkenyl interrupted by one or more oxa, alkyl interrupted by thia, alkenyl interrupted by thia, aryloxyalkyl, alkoxyaryl, aminoalkyl, aminoalkenyl, aminoaryl, aminoarylalkyl, hydroxyalkyl, hydroxyalkenyl, hydroxyaryl, hydroxyarylalkyl, halogen substituted versions therof; R1 is a member selected from the group consisting of R2, R3, R4, and radicals of formula (V) and wherein, optionally, any two of R1, R2, R3 and R4 are combined to form a ring structure; said dimers therof, said dimers being formed by the covalent attachment of two complexing agents of formula (I) through a linking group having from 1 to 6 carbon atom;- and physiological salts thereof with the proviso that the molecular weight of said complexing agent does not exceed 2000, which chelation affinity and selectivity for first transition series elements. Administration of the free or conjugated compound, or physiological salts of the free or conjugated compound, results in decrease in the in vivo bioavailability of first transition series elements and/or removal from the body of first transition series elements and elements with similar chemical properties. These characteristics make such compounds useful in the management of diseases associated with a bodily excess of first transition series elements and elements with similar chemical properties. This invention demonstrates that such compounds inhibit mammalian, bacterial, and fungal cell replication and are therefore useful in the treatment of neoplasia, infection, inflammation, immune reponse, and in termination of pregnancy. Since these compounds are capable of decreasing the in vivo availability of tissue iron they are useful in management of free redical mediated tissue damage, and oxidation mediated tissue damage. When combined with radioisotopic or paramagnetic cations of first transition series elements, or elements with chemical properties similar to those of first transition series elements, prior to their administration, the resulting complexes are useful as diagnostic agents in nuclear medicine and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

IPC: E04C3/14
Filed: 1998-03-30
Abstract: Environmentalists and governments are steadily curtailing timber supply.  Homes are costing more to build and there seems to be no end to lumber price escalation.   However, there is an over supply of small trees and at lower cost than sawlog timber. But whoever heard of making houses using only small trees.  This invention  has  the  answer.    Strange-looking  wood  shapes  are directly sawn from small tree logs in a single-pass operation. No lumber is made, no joists, no studs, no rafters, no decking, no sheathing and no shingles. House sections are made up from wood strips which in cross section are like Tees  (T), Crosses (+), Ells (L), Ees (E), Dees (D), Ayches (H) and Double Ayches (HH).  An interlocking jointing system almost eliminates the use of nails and those used are not visible.   Certain components serve multiple functions,  such as rafters that are also roof boards and shingles.   This invention takes advantage of a new concept.  Forest departments of Universities and governments have developed fast-growing hybrid trees that reach small log, useful size in three to five years at a third of the cost of sawlogs.  A home manufacturer can grow his timber supply in tree farms nearby with total cost control.  Forty hectare or 100 acres can supply 100       houses     a       year      in      perpetuity.

Title: Container made of metal, and a method and means for its production
Inventor: URECH WERNER
IPC: B21D26/02
Filed: 1998-04-29
Abstract: A container (1), in particular a fuel tank for a motor vehicle, is formed by welding together two deep-drawn components.  The side walls (14,15) of the container which are adjacent to the welded flange (6) joining the components are then made to bulge outwards, preferably by hydroforming in a mould (20).  The result is a container which makes more effective use than a conventional container or tank of the installation space which the flange (6) requires.

Title: Engine driven inverter welding power supply
Inventor: BEESON RICHARD
IPC: B23K9/10
Filed: 1998-05-06
Abstract: A method and apparatus for welding with an engine driven inverter power supply includes generating an ac output with an engine and generator. The output is rectified and inverted to provide an ac inverter output. The engine is controlled using feedback indicative of a welding output operating parameter.  The feedback may also be taken from the inverter or generator, and the generator may be controlled instead of or in addition to the engine. Engine parameters that may be controlled include engine speed, selecting between an idle speed and a run speed, a throttle position, a fuel pump, an injection timer, a fuel to air ratio, fuel consumption and ignition timing. Another aspect of the invention is having the feedback be responsive to one or more of the welding current, welding voltage, welding power, or functions thereof.  The feedback may be responsive to the current, voltage, power, ripple and functions thereof.  An aux power output is derived directly from the generator and feedback from the aux load is used to determine if the engine should be idling or running at high speed.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method and system in a Telecommunications Network for restoring Network Element failures or Network Link failures in case not all Network Elements possess distributed restoration capabilities, for example during an introduction-phase of the distributed restoration system, or in case anetwork consists of different kinds of Network Elements provided by different providers (multivendor network). The distributed restoration of Network Elements which do not possess these capabilities is taken over by the distributed restoration module of network management. This module then takes care of the part of the path set-up which would have been covered by the Network Elements restoration module The invention also includes a framework which facilitates provisioning of the restoration system in the modular way, which means that the operator can choose which kind of algorithm is the most suitable one in his situation. The interface which is used for communication between a Network Element and the Network Management, is implemented according to the q3 standard. The distributed restoration module within the Network Management can be replaced by a central restoration module which has the advantage over the distributed module that a better solution will be found.
