Patent CA-2225033-A1 (CA)
Title: Caddi cooler
Inventor: WHENHAM GLENN D
IPC: A63B55/00
Filed: 1998-03-03
Abstract: The "Caddi Cooler" is a cooler specifically designed as a golf accessory, attaching to the side of a golfer's bag, for the purpose of supplying pre-cooled cold drinks to the golfer in an easily accessible manner.      Although this invention is primarily for golfer's it can be adjusted with a carrying strap and carried independently from the golf bag.      The maximum number of standard sized, canned, cold drinks that can be placed in this cooler is 5. Various types of canned or bottled drinks can be used if they conform to the standard sized, canned soft drink, although the number of drinks which can be carried, may vary in accordance to size.      Ice packs may be used to enhance the effectiveness of this cooler, but will decrease the available space.

IPC: G09B5/00
Filed: 1998-03-09
Abstract: A process for unifying the benchmark criteria in theoretical knowledge and practical skills and the trainee within an electronic environment that is independent of traditional didactic methods and consisting of three components: 1) An interactive software program that utilizes a host computer to store the benchmark criteria and allow the trainee to master individual theory components contained in that benchmark database, and assesses that trainee's knowledge acquisition through individual testing components; 2) An electronically sensorized training mannequin for use as an objective device upon which to apply and measure acquired skills against the benchmark criteria through the systematic practice, analysis and testing of practical skills; and 3) A separate electronic interface that utilizes micro-processor technology to interrogate the electronic sensors of the training device, objectively translate the data and send it in unbiased parallel form to the host computer's parallel port in order that the trainee's performance of all required elements and protocols can be tracked and analyzed for the purpose of interpretation and evaluation in relation to the benchmark criteria.

Patent CA-2233650-A1 (CA)
Inventor: HEHL KARL
IPC: B29C45/77
Filed: 1996-10-02
Abstract: The inner pressure of a tool is measured during a cycle of a cyclically working machine as a function of time and/or the distance covered by conveyor means. The tool inner pressure is then differentiated as a function of time or distance covered, and the evaluation results are checked for deviations from the monotonous curve. If that is the case, the subsequent compression time or the switching moment are changed until the tool inner pressure curve becomes a monotonous curve.

Title: Apparatus for testing atm channels
Inventor: YOSHIMURA SHUJI
IPC: H04L12/26
Filed: 1991-08-26
Abstract: A first form of an ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) channel testing apparatus tests an ATM channel by having a test cell detector in each switch detect whether or not the switch appropriately switches a test cell generated by a test cell generating trunk.  A second form of an ATM channel testing apparatus easily tests an ATM channel by having test cell generators provided for the respective input highways sequentially generate test cells to which test cell identifying information and input highway identifying information, and having test cell monitor provided for the respective output highways simply tally the test cells by the respective input highways.  A third form of an ATM channel testing apparatus tests an ATM channel with fewer pieces of hardware by having turnaround parts in respective ordinary trunks sequentially turn around a test cell generated by a test cell generating trunk to be finally returned to the test cell generating trunk.
Patent CA-2240241-A1 (CA)
Title: Flow meter
Inventor: SPIESS FRITZ
IPC: G01F15/00
Filed: 1998-06-10
Abstract: A flow meter, such as is used in warm water heating systems, has a measuring element (2) with a flow-responsive element and a display element (3) with a transparent inspection glass or tube (10) with a bore in which an an end of an indicator rod (6) moves.  The indicator rod is part of, or is coupled to, the flow-responsive element and it has a pointer (8) near the end inside the inspection tube.  The inspection tube preferably has no markings; instead, around the inspection tube is a scale support (16) with scale markings calibrated to the positions of the pointer (8) to show the amount of flow.   The scale support is essentially sleeve-shaped, with a lateral cutout (18) which permits the user to view the pointer inside the inspection tube.  The scale markings may be on cut surfaces (20) adjoining the lateral cutout.  In one embodiment the scale support is rotatable about the inspection tube for adjusting the viewing angle, so that it is not necessary to take the rotational position of the inspection tube into consideration when the flow meter is installed.  In an alternative embodiment the inspection tube is combined with a valve for  adjusting the measured flow.

Title: Direct sequence spread spectrum modulated uplink for modulated backscatter systems
Inventor: SHOBER R ANTHONY
IPC: H04B1/707
Filed: 1998-09-30
Abstract: A modulated backscatter (MBS) system provides a processing gain over MBS background noise by using a wideband uplink signal and a narrowband downlink signal. The wideband uplink signal is generated by controlling the reflection of a narrowband downlink signal using a wideband data signal.

Title: Water durable board for exterior wall assembly water management system
Inventor: REICHERTS JAMES
IPC: E04F13/00
Filed: 1998-10-09
Abstract: An exterior wall assembly water management system that provides the designer and building owner with the popular esthetics of synthetic stucco and the long-term reliability of water management. The water managed exterior system includes flashing, a weather-resistive barrier, a water durable board, a basecoat and an exterior finish. Either the water durable board, or an insulation layer secured to the water durable board, forms the exterior cladding of the building structure, and the basecoat and the exterior stucco finish are applied to the outer surface of the water durable board, or in the alternative to the insulation layer. The disclosed water managed exterior system efficiently directs any penetrating water to weeps, or the like, by providing a water drainage medium between the weather-resistive barrier and the water durable board. The unwanted water drains downwards via the drainage medium, is caught at the base of the wall by the flashing, and is further drained outside of the wall cladding.
Patent CA-2251643-A1 (CA)
Inventor: REHA-KRANTZ LINDA
IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 1997-04-15
Abstract: Sequencing methods and methods for synthesizing DNA probes using mutant bacteriophage T4 DNA polymerases which have increased ability to incorporate modified nucleotides for the synthesis of long or short chains of complementary, modified, e.g., fluorophore-labeled DNA. In general, the mutant T4 DNA polymerases retain 3'5' exonuclease activity; hence, reduction or elimination of 3'5' exonuclease activity is not a prerequisite for efficient synthesis of a complementary fluorophore-labeled or other modified DNA. In fact, retention of 3'5' exonuclease activity increases accuracy of DNA replication, because these exonucleases proofread or edit the product of DNA replication.

Title: Guided deployment of stents
Inventor: ACKER DAVID E
IPC: A61F2/856
Filed: 1999-02-23
Abstract: A stent is placed in a tubular structure of the anatomy such as the vascular or respiratory system by advancing a probe bearing the stent into the body. The disposition of the probe, and hence the disposition of the stent are monitored using a system which transmits non-ionizing fields between a transducer or transducers on the probe and external transducers. The disposition of the stent relative to the tubular structure is depicted showing a representation of the stent superposed on an image of the tubular structure.  This provides accurate placement, particularly for complex stents with features such as one or more branches which must be aligned with anatomical features.
