Patent CA-2309055-A1 (CA)
Title: An embolic protection device
Inventor: BRADY EAMON
IPC: A61F2/06
Filed: 1998-11-09
Abstract: An embolic protection device has a collapsible filter element (105) mounted on a carrier such as a guidewire (101). The filter element (105) collapses into the outer end of a catheter (118) for deployment and retrieval through a vascular system of a patient. The filter element (105) has a collapsible filter body with a proximal inlet end and a distal outlet end. The proximal inlet end has inlet openings sized to allow blood and embolic material enter the filter body. The outlet end has outlet openings which allow through passage of blood but retain embolic material within the filter body. After use, the catheter (118) is movable along the guidewire (101) to engage the proximal end of the filter element and close the inlet openings before sliding over the filter element from the proximal end to the distal end to progressively collapse the filter body on the guidewire (101) for retrieval. The filter element (105) may conveniently be mounted on a tubular sleeve (104) which is slidable and rotatable on the guidewire (101) between spaced-apart stops (106, 120) on the guidewire (101) which allows some manipulation of the guidewire independently of the filter when the filter is in use.

Title: Method and device for feeding flat items to individualization
Inventor: FURTER FRANK
IPC: B65B35/24
Filed: 2000-09-15
Abstract: Flat items (2) which have an irregular and/or changeable thickness profile are individualized from a substantially lying stack (3/5), wherein the stack serves as buffer between the individualization and the supply of the items (2) and wherein the items (2) arranged in the stack are guided in a stack channel (1) towards the individualization. In order to allow individualization speeds in the range of several tens of thousands of items per hour, the items (2) are supplied to a pre-stack (3) in which the items are conveyed towards individualization in a loose order and being individually laterally guided, the pre-stack (3) is transformed into an individualizing stack (5) and the items are individualized only from the individualizing stack (5). In the individualizing stack (5) the items (2) are guided and conveyed and held in a stable order as a stack, i.e. with forces transmitted via the items. The pre-stack (3) takes over the buffer function and therefore comprises a substantially freely selectable number of items (2) which varies within wide limits. The number of items (2) in the individualizing stack (5) is considerably smaller and is kept constant within tight limits.

Title: Adjustable retainer for electrical cords
Inventor: PUTORTI JOHN J
IPC: H01R13/58
Filed: 2000-12-06
Abstract: A housing for an electrical wiring device includes an adjustable clamping mechanism for retaining electrical conduits therein. The clamping mechanism has a pair of opposing strain relief members on opposite sides of a conduit passageway, set to accept a predetermined conduit width. Each strain relief member has a frangible portion which can be removed by a user. In this manner, if a user desires to retain, by means of an interference fit, a conduit having a diameter larger than the predetermined spacing of the intact strain relief members will allow, one or both frangible portions can be removed to accommodate a larger sized conduit.    Alternatively, more than one pair of strain relief members having frangible portions can be alternately arranged to clamp a conduit in an S-shaped configuration, capable of accepting multiple conduit sizes by removing some or all of the frangible portions. Preferably, the strain relief members are integrally formed with the housing, and each frangible portion is integrally formed with the remainder of the strain relief member and the housing.

Patent CA-2328693-A1 (CA)
Inventor: ESTE GRANTLEY O
IPC: H01L21/68
Filed: 2000-12-18
Abstract: The present invention describes a laser alignment tool which provides a quick and practical alignment of an evaporator source and a wafer holder in an evaporator chamber. The tool comprises an aluminum disk and a support structure carrying a laser pointer. The laser pointer is placed within a hollow cylinder attached to the disk where a position of the laser pointer can be adjusted to emit light perpendicular to the disk. The dimensions and shape of the disk are chosen so as to imitate a wafer substrate in order to fit one of the wafer holder slots. When the alignment tool is placed in a slot instead of the wafer, the holder is rotated, and the light beam from the laser pointer describes substantially circular trajectories depending on the mutual arrangement between the source and the holder. By observing these trajectories a conclusion can be made whether the source and the holder are aligned properly. For example, a position of a virtual source can be determined as a single spot in space to which the light beam points during the rotation of the wafer holder. In modifications to the above embodiment, several alignment tools of the invention can be used for alignment purposes and/or for identification imperfections of curvature of wafer holders.

Abstract: A steam condenser (1) which, relative to a steam turbine (2), is arranged at equal ground level and into which turbine steam flows in the horizontal direction through the condenser neck (3) has two or more modules (4a, 4b) in which the steam condenses on cooling tubes (10). The modules (4a, 4b) are, in accordance with the invention, separated by a defined intermediate space (7). The central, mutually facing module walls (9) are supported and connected to one another by connecting parts (8). This arrangement contributes to a defined stress distribution in the central module walls (9). In a particular embodiment, bypass conduits (20); which lead the steam from the boiler directly into the steam condenser (1) while bypassing the turbine (2), are arranged in the intermediate space (7). For this purpose, the bypass conduits (20) lead to a steam introduction appliance (21), which is arranged at the condenser neck (3) at the level of the intermediate space (7). Because of this positioning, the flow of the turbine steam (22) into the steam condenser (1) is not hindered.

Filed: 1999-07-21
Abstract: A separator for separating particles, especially amalgam particles, from effluent liquid obtained from the suction apparatus of a dental office, preferably driven by a common vacuum pump, includes a sedimentary deposit tank for sedimentation of solid particles in the effluent. A surge tank is provided for accommodating effluent overfill and providing its effluent output to the sedimentary deposit tank. A bypass conduit is connected in parallel with the separator and to a vacuum check valve in the vicinity of the separator inlet port for passing air into the separator when the suction apparatus is closed to ambient air, so that whenever the vacuum pump is operating, air is sucked into the separator either through the suction apparatus thence into the separator inlet port or via the vacuum check valve. The surge tank preferably has a liquid level sensor and associated warning device. An auxiliary filtration device may be connected downstream of the sedimentary deposit tank, and both of these units are preferably removably replaceable as modular units.  Provision is made for optional auxiliary equipment to improve filtration and to accommodate a positive air pressure source. A full tank drying facility is optionally provided.
