Patent CA-2560744-A1 (CA)
Title: High data rate interface apparatus and method
Inventor: STEELE BRIAN
IPC: H04M1/72412
Filed: 2005-03-24
Abstract: A data interface for transferring digital data between a host and a client over a communication path using packet structures linked together to form a communication protocol for communicating a pre-selected set of digital control and presentation data. The signal protocol is used by link controllers configured to generate, transmit, and receive packets forming the communications protocol, and to form digital data into one or more types of data packets, with at least one residing in the host device and being coupled to the client through the communications path. The interface provides a cost-effective, low power, bi-directional, high-speed data transfer mechanism over a short-range "serial" type data link, which lends itself to implementation with miniature connectors and thin flexible cables which are especially useful in connecting display elements such as wearable micro-displays to portable computers and wireless communication devices.

Title: Body insertable apparatus
Inventor: MORI TAKESHI
IPC: A61B1/00
Filed: 2005-07-14
Abstract: A protective circuit (26c) detects the voltage at point A on a power supply path from a battery (29) to a circuit (30) executing a function in a capsule.  When the voltage at point A drops below a preset threshold (predetermined intermediate potential), a switch element (26a) is switched to connect the battery (29) with a resistor load (26b), and the supply of drive power to the circuit (30) is interrupted. At the same time, the resistor load (26b), can be supplied with power and power stored in the battery (29) is used up through the resistor load (26b), thus preventing erroneous operation of the circuit in an intermediate potential state.

Filed: 2005-11-16
Abstract: A mattress includes a plurality of individual foam blocks which are secured together using one or more plastic fasteners to form a five-sided foam encasement. A spring unit is fittingly disposed within an interior cavity defined by the foam encasement. One or more top layers of foam rubber are mounted on the foam encasement over the spring unit and are secured thereto using additional plastic fasteners. An outer layer of quilted cotton material is sewn over the foam encasement and top layers of foam rubber to yield the finished one-piece mattress. As can be appreciated, the outer periphery of the mattress is defined by foam material, which is substantially rigid in its construction, rather than the spring unit, which is highly susceptible to warping. In this manner, the foam material serves to preserve the shape of the outer periphery of the mattress over time.

Patent CA-2598630-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MEARS DANA C
IPC: A61F2/38
Filed: 2006-02-21
Abstract: A modular prosthetic device is provided for replacement of the knee. The device is assembled from a plurality of components, each of which can be inserted through a small incision. After inserting the components through the incision, the device can be assembled within the knee cavity. The modularity of the device enables a surgeon to replace only those regions of the knee that are diseased or damaged, thereby avoiding a complete knee replacement. If, at a later time, additional regions of the knee become diseased or damaged, those additional regions of the knee can be replaced by additional device components and those additional components can be connected to the previously implanted components. By replacing only those regions of the knee that are diseased or damaged and by implanting each of the components through the small incision, the surgery is minimally invasive and, therefore, requires reduced time for healing and rehabilitation.
