Patent CA-2268794-A1 (CA)
Inventor: CHLAMTAC IMRICH
IPC: H04L12/70
Filed: 1998-07-17
Abstract: A system, device, and method for scheduling data transmission opportunities for variable bit rate traffic provide data transmission opportunities at a peak cell rate when the end user is actively transmitting data, and provide data transmission opportunities at a lower rate when the end user has no data to transmit. When the end user has no data to transmit, any excess data transmission opportunities (i.e., data transmission opportunities from the lower rate up to the peak cell rate) are available for statistically multiplexing traffic from other end users. Various embodiments utilize a lower rate anywhere between a zero rate and a sustainable cell rate, inclusive. Alternative embodiments allocate a burst of data transmission opportunities equivalent to a maximum burst size at the peak cell rate when the end user has data to transmit, after which the end user is once again provided data transmission opportunities at the lower rate.

Title: Adhesive for application of functional articles to the skin and comfortable removal of such articles
Inventor: CINELLI FABIO
IPC: C09J129/04
Filed: 1997-12-22
Abstract: The present invention relates to topical adhesives for attachment to the skin.  In particular, the present invention relates to such topical adhesives which can be employed for application of functional articles to the skin, particularly for the adhesion of functional articles or the improvement of the function of such articles. Functional articles in this context are cosmetic or pharmaceutical delivery articles which provide a substance to the skin such as skin treatment substances, creams, lotions, hormones, vitamins, deodorants, or drugs; alternatively, cosmetic or pharmaceutical delivery articles can also provide a substance to emanate away from the skin such as insecticides, inhalation drugs, or perfumes; further, the adhesive of the present invention can also be used in functional articles which are not attached to the skin but as a component in articles which require a high residence time on the skin such as decorative cosmetics (lipstick, eye colors, stage make-up) or cleaning article (hand cleaner, face mask, hygienic cleanser especially for pores). The topical adhesive provides secure attachment or increased residence time and is pleasing to the skin upon application, yet causes no discomfort upon removal.  This is achieved by selecting the chemical composition and rheological characteristics of the topical adhesives.

Title: Absorbent article having double side cuffs
Inventor: HELMSTETTER THOMAS J
IPC: A61F13/49
Filed: 1999-06-28
Abstract: An absorbent article having both outwardly extending and upwardly extending side cuffs is disclosed. The article has a perimeter defined at least in part by a pair of oppositely disposed ends and oppositely disposed sides that extend substantially between the ends. A pair of side flanges extends from a proximal portion adjacent an absorbent structure to a distal portion proximate one of the article sides. Each side flange has a base element, an outer zone disposed adjacent the perimeter and an inner zone disposed between the outer zone and the absorbent structure. There is an elastically extensible element having a width sufficient to span at least the inner zone and a portion of the outer zone, a thickness, and a length. Each elastically extensible element is laminated to the cover material to form a cuff laminate. Each cuff laminate is attached to the base element of the side flange in the outer zone, but each is unattached to the base layer in the inner zone. Finally, the cover is attached to the absorbent structure, at least in a central region of the article. Thus, at least a portion of each cuff laminate is deflected away from the base element of each side flange proximate the inner zone when the elastically extensible element is in a relaxed state.
