Title: Cargo hook
Inventor: GREEN STEPHEN J
IPC: B64D1/22
Filed: 1998-05-12
Abstract: A cargo hook for releasably carrying a load includes a support frame, a load support mechanism carried by the frame, and a latching mechanism. The load support mechanism has a closed condition for securing the load and an open condition for permitting release of the load. The latching mechanism serves to releasably latch the load support mechanism in the closed condition and includes a toggle linkage having a first end pivotally connected to the load support mechanism, a second end pivotally connected to the frame, and an articulation joint between the ends. The latching mechanism includes provision for toggling the toggle linkage between first and second toggle positions, and a catch moveable between a latched position for holding the toggle linkage in the first toggle position and an unlatched position for permitting the toggle linkage to toggle between the first and second toggle positions. The load support mechanism may include a static load beam and a load release gate pivotally mounted for rotation between a closed position securing a load on the beam and an open position permitting release of the load from the beam. Alternately, the load support mechanism may include a load beam pivotally mounted to the frame for rotation between a closed position securing a load on the beam and an open position permitting release of the load from the beam.
Patent CA-2237985-A1 (CA)
Title: Apparatus and method for pressure and temperature waveform analysis
Inventor: RAPOPORT DAVID M
IPC: A61B5/08
Filed: 1996-11-15
Abstract: A pressure sensor is combined with a temperature sensor to monitor a patient's breathing patterns. The combination of sensors enables an analysis of the patient's breathing patterns to be made without the use of a face mask even if the patient breathes through the mouth or draws only very weak breaths. The patient's sleep is therefore less likely to be disrupted by the presence of the monitoring equipment and a more accurate diagnosis of any sleep disorder can be made.

Title: Antenna for frequencies in excess of 200 mhz
Inventor: LEISTEN OLIVER PAUL
IPC: H01Q11/08
Filed: 1997-01-10
Abstract: A miniature antenna (10) for operation at frequencies in excess of 200 MHz has a ceramic core (12) in the form of a cylindrical rod having a relative dielectric constant greater than 5. Plated on the outer surfaces of the core is an antenna element structure comprising a single pair of appositely disposed helical elements (10A, 10B) having a common central axis coincident with the central axis of the core. At a distal end of the antenna, they are connected to a coaxial feeder structure passing axially through the core, and at their proximal ends they are connected to the rim of a cylindrical trap conductor (20) which, at the proximal end of the core is coupled to the screen of the feeder structure. At the operating frequency, the antenna behaves as a loop, the radiation response having nulls directed generally perpendicularly on each side of a plane containing the central axis of the core and the connections of the helical elements with the feeder structure and with the conductive sleeve. The antenna is intended primarily for a handheld communication unit such as a cellular or cordless telephone handset, the present of the nulls in the radiation pattern reducing radiation into the user's head.

Title: Parasite-derived anti-inflammatory immunomodulatory protein
Inventor: KALYANASUNDARAM RAMASWAMY
IPC: A61K38/00
Filed: 1997-03-14
Abstract: A protein with anti-inflammatory, and immunomodulatory functions was identified and isolated from the excretory/secretions of a human parasite Schistosoma mansoni. This protein, designated herein as Sm 16.8, is released by schistosomes upon entry into human skin. Under in vitro conditions Sm 16.8 is shown to stimulate the production of anti-inflammatory cytokine Interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra) in human keratinocytes and transcriptionally down regulate the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1 .alpha. and IL-1 .beta..

Patent CA-2250596-A1 (CA)
Inventor: VAVOLOTIS ANDREW C
IPC: B63B29/00
Filed: 1998-10-16
Abstract: A device designed to enable a sailor to move easily fore and aft and side-to-side about a watercraft. The device includes separate port and starboard bench units that are pivotally coupled to the watercraft and are movingly coupled to outboard rail systems extending fore and aft along the port and starboard gunwales of the watercraft. Additional rail systems incorporated into the bench units allow side-to-side movement.  The bench units is designed and coupled to the rail systems and pivot points such that the sailor can remain on the bench unit and pivotally move it fore and aft, or slidingly move side-to-side by pushing his or her feet on the underlying substrate above which the sailor sits. The bench unit is preferably designed to permit the sailor to straddle it. The seat portions of the bench units are extendable beyond the outer edge of the watercraft. A handrail affixed to the bench enhances stability for the sailor. An optional braking system that can be engaged or disengaged by the sailor prevents undesired movement of the bench unit fore and aft along the outboard rails.

Title: Lawn and garden tractor interlock circuit
Inventor: PETERSON RUDOLPH ANDREW JR
IPC: B60W30/18
Filed: 1998-11-23
Abstract: An interlock system for a lawn and garden tractor or similar vehicle includes a PTO switch having off, on and momentary on positions and connected to a latching relay to provide PTO operation in reverse if the switch is moved to the momentary on position prior to the vehicle being shifted into reverse. Once the vehicle is operating in reverse with the PTO activated, the operator can release the switch from the momentary on position and the PTO will remain activated. However, once PTO operation has been interrupted for any reason, the PTO can be reenergized only after reverse operation has been stopped and the PTO switch has been moved to the off position.

Patent CA-2254707-A1 (CA)
Title: Computer security using virus probing
Inventor: GROSSE ERIC
IPC: G06F21/56
Filed: 1998-12-01
Abstract: A technique for determining whether particular clients within a computer network are universally configured in accordance with the desired network security features of the computer network. A probe is randomly inserted within incoming files, e.g., at a firewall in the computer network. The probe is configured as a function of a particular execution task, e.g. a known virus, such that in a properly configured client the probe will not execute and the firewall does not detect a security breach. However, if the client is misconfigured, i.e., not in compliance with the standard network security features, the probe will execute and trigger an alarm in the firewall indicating that the client is vulnerable to a security breach. Advantageously, a network security administrator can take appropriate action to correct those clients which are misconfigured.
Patent CA-2256357-A1 (CA)
Inventor: KADKADE PRAKASH G
IPC: C12N5/00
Filed: 1997-05-27
Abstract: This invention provides methods whereby taxol, baccatin III, and other taxol-like compounds, or taxanes, can be produced in very high yield from all known Taxus species, e.g., brevifolia, canadensis, cuspidata, baccata, globosa, floridana, wallichiana, media and chinensis. Particular modifications of culture conditions (i.e., media composition and operating modes) have been discovered to enhance the yield of various taxanes from cell culture of all species of Taxus.  Particularly preferred enhancement agents include silver ion or complex, jasmonic acid (especially the methyl ester), auxin-related growth regulators, and inhibitors of the phenylpropanoid pathway, such as 3,4-methylenedioxy-6-nitrocinnamic acid. These enhancement agents may be used alone or in combination with one another or other yield-enhancing conditions. While the yield of taxanes from plant cell culture of T. chinensis is particularly enhanced by use of one or more of these conditions, yield of taxanes for all Taxus species has been found to benefit from use of these conditions.
