Title: Positive pressure gas jacket for a natural gas pipeline
Inventor: WILDE GLENN
IPC: F17D/
Filed: 2004-08-27
Granted: 2010-07-08
Abstract: The present invention provides a method and apparatus whereby the intake pipeline running between the production chamber of a natural gas well and the suction inlet of an associated wellhead compressor is completely enclosed, in airtight fashion, within a jacket of natural gas under positive pressure (i.e., higher than atmospheric). Being enclosed inside this "positive pressure jacket", the intake pipeline is not exposed to the atmosphere at any point. This allows gas to be drawn into the compressor through the intake pipeline under a negative pressure, without risk of air entering the intake pipeline should a leak occur in the pipeline. If such a leak occurs, there will merely be a harmless transfer of gas from the positive pressure jacket into the intake pipeline. If a leak occurs in the positive pressure jacket, gas therefrom will escape into the atmosphere, and entry of air into the positive pressure jacket will be impossible.

Title: Method of manufacturing a stamped biopsy forceps jaw
Inventor: KRZYZANOWSKI JACEK
IPC: A61B10/06
Filed: 2005-04-25
Granted: 2010-12-02
Abstract: A method of progressive die stamping manufacturing a biopsy forceps jaw comprising the steps of cutting a sheet of metal into a strip. The strip of metal may then be punched with a series of guide holes. A shape larger than a pattern of the biopsy forceps jaw may then be defined in the strip of metal. An actuating hole may be punched into the shape. A concave shaped cup portion of the biopsy forceps jaw may be drawn. The pattern of the biopsy forceps jaw may then be cut to expose a cutting edge and exposed edges of the pattern. The cutting edge can be coined to provide a hardened, sharp, cutting edge. The exposed edges may be chamfered and then the pattern may be folded and shaped to form a biopsy forceps jaw cup and an arm positioned relative to the biopsy forceps jaw cup. A pivot hole may then be punched into the arm. The biopsy forceps jaw may then go through a calibration so that the cutting edge is in a plane perpendicular to a plane of the arm. The jaw cup may then be cut off of the strip of metal.

Title: An electro-optical filter
Inventor: STEPHANOV DMITRI YU
IPC: G02F1/135
Filed: 2006-05-02
Granted: 2012-04-12
Abstract: An electro-optical filter (512, 520) for filtering light from an object (502) is arranged for receiving the light via a first imaging element (504) and a polarising beam splitter (506), The filter comprises a plurality of reflective liquid crystal elements (102, Fig. 1), and each reflective element is arranged so that a polarisation of the light is rotated as a function of light detected at or near the reflective element. When polarised light impinging on the reflective elements is above a predetermined threshold intensity, light is reflected without rotation of polarisation and returned back to the optical path. On the contrary, when below a predetermined threshold intensity, light is rotated at the reflective elements thus transmitted through the beam splitter (511) to a prism (514) and to a second lens system (516) to form an image (518). Therefore, intensity differences of light originating from bright and dark regions of the object is reduced.
