Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus for heating up wort during brewing. For a simple and inexpensive force-type circulation of wort during the heating or boiling process preceding the hop adding step, the present invention suggests a connection pipe which is branched off from the casting pipe downstream of the casting pump and terminates again in the vessel underneath the inner boiler for heating wort.      Furthermore, there is provided at least one respective shut-off device in the casting pipe and the connection pipe downstream of the casting pump.
Patent CA-2207995-A1 (CA)
Inventor: DUGGAN BRENDAN J
IPC: A61M25/00
Filed: 1995-12-11
Abstract: La présente invention concerne un dispositif d'insertion de cathéter qui comporte un distributeur de cathéter doté d'une sortie de cathéter s'étirant depuis une base, et un réceptacle, en forme de tambour, fixé à la base de façon à pouvoir tourner par rapport à celle-ci. Cette base comporte un orifice d'entrée dans le même axe que la sortie de cathéter. Un passage, qui longe tangentiellement le tambour à cathéter, relie l'orifice d'entrée à la sortie de cathéter. Une aiguille rigide est placée dans le passage de telle sorte que l'extrémité pointue dépasse de la sortie de cathéter. Un cathéter introducteur flexible entoure généralement de façon contiguë et télescopique la partie distale de l'aiguille. Ce cathéter introducteur dépasse de la sortie de cathéter jusqu'à un point de l'aiguille proche de l'extrémité pointue et coopère avec l'aiguille lorsque celle-ci est introduite à l'intérieur de la veine d'un patient. Une valve à flux unidirectionnelle est reliée de manière étanche à l'extrémité proximale du cathéter d'introduction flexible. Cette valve forme une partie du passage pour minimiser le reflux de sang de la veine lorsque l'aiguille est retirée du passage par glissement. Lorsque le tambour à cathéter tourne par rapport à la base, le cathéter du tambour est enfilé au travers de la valve unidirectionnelle, du cathéter introducteur flexible qui y est logé et à l'intérieur de la veine du patient.

Inventor: SWANGER JOHN W JR
IPC: G01M13/02
Filed: 1996-04-24
Abstract: A method of determining a contact pattern representative of the contact patterns on successive gear teeth. The method comprises providing a first digital image (14) comprising actual drive side or coast side tooth surfaces comprising contact patterns (16, 18, 20, 22) of a plurality of successive gear teeth, and, providing a second digital image (24) comprising one of respective drive side or coast side theoretically correct tooth surfaces (28, 30, 32, 34) of the same successive gear teeth. Each theoretically correct tooth surface is represented by a matrix grid comprising a plurality of grid elements. The theoretically correct tooth surfaces are superimposed on the respective actual tooth surfaces image to congruently match the actual tooth surfaces image to the respective theoretically correct tooth surfaces. The grid elements of each theoretically correct tooth surface which contain at least a portion of a contact pattern image are then identified (C28, C30, C32, C34). A  consolidation matrix grid (CTotal) comprising a number of grid elements equal to the number of grid elements in the theoretically correct tooth surface grid matrix is provided and grid elements in the consolidation matrix grid corresponding to respective identified grid elements in each of the theoretically correct matrix grids are identified. The identified grid elements in the consolidaion matrix represent a consolidated contact image (40) for the successive gear teeth.

Patent CA-2225271-A1 (CA)
Title: Telephone exchange apparatus
Inventor: TANAKA TOSHIAKI
IPC: H04M1/57
Filed: 1997-12-19
Abstract: The emergency call such as Enhanced 911 call or the like is also originated through an exchange such as PBX (Private Branch Exchange). In this case, the identification information such as the extension number of the extension telephone terminal connected to the PBX should be transmitted to a network corresponding to the emergency call. For the extension telephone terminal, it is necessary to unhook or to capture an arbitrary line by the line key, before inputting the dial data "911". Independent of the capture of arbitrary line, the PBX searches a vacant line connected to the network corresponding to the emergency call, captures the vacant line, transmits the identification information such as the extension number, and switches over and connects the extension telephone terminal from the line captured by the terminal to the vacant line. The identification information such as the extension number is notified, not by the DTMF (Dual Tone Multi-frequency) signal expressing data corresponding to the number of dial key, but by using a MF (Multi-frequency) signal expressing more data.

Title: Systems and methods for purging process lines of additives for thermoplastics materials
Inventor: YON DAN R
IPC: B29C48/27
Filed: 1998-03-27
Abstract: Systems and methods are provided whereby additive for thermoplastic materials may be recovered in a primary additive supply system simultaneously with the supply of an additive from a secondary additive supply system to a molten thermoplastic stream. Each of the primary and secondary additive supply systems is provided with respective recirculation lines so as to prevent sedimentation of the additive. According to the present invention, therefore, a protocol is employed whereby substantially all of the additive in the additive supply system, including that quantity of additive in the recirculation lines, may be recovered so that a fresh supply of additive (which oftentimes is different from the previous additive) may be connected for injection into the molten thermoplastic stream at the appropriate time.

Abstract: L'invention concerne certains nouveaux composés et leur dérivés, leur synthèse et leur utilisation en tant qu'antagonistes du récepteur adrénergique alpha 1a. Le traitement de l'adénome prostatique constitue l'une des applications desdits composés. Ces composés sont sélectifs dans leur capacité à relaxer les tissus des muscles lisses enrichis en sous-type du récepteur alpha 1a sans pour autant provoquer une hypotension. L'un de ces tissus entoure la muqueuse urétrale. Par conséquent, ces composés peuvent servir par exemple à soulager de façon aiguë les hommes souffrant d'adénome prostatique, en permettant un flux urinaire moins entravé. En combinant ces composés avec un composé inhibiteur de la réductase 5-alpha humaine, on peut également les utiliser pour atténuer de façon chronique et aiguë les effets de l'adénome prostatique.

Title: Method for controlled fragmentation of hard rock and concrete by the combination use of impact hammers and small charge blasting
Inventor: WATSON JOHN DAVID
IPC: E21B15/04
Filed: 1996-08-07
Abstract: Rock and other hard materials, such as concrete, are broken by a combination of a mechanical impact breaker (33, 47) and a small-charge blasting process. A  mechanical impact breaker (33, 47) fragments rock by delivering a series of mechanical blows to the rock. The fracturing process is accomplished by pressurizing the bottom of a drill hole (9) in such a way as to initiate and propagate a controlled fracture (18, 30) or propagate any pre-existing fractures near the hole-bottom (12). In practice, a small-charge blasting method is used to fracture and partially break out the center portion of the excavation. A mechanical impact breaker (33, 47) can then be used efficiently to further break and dislodge the rock that has been weakened by the small-charge blasting.
