Patent CA-2345689-A1 (CA)
Inventor: TAME OMAR D
IPC: B60N2/12
Filed: 1999-11-05
Abstract: An automotive seat assembly (10) has a seat cushion and a seat back pivotally mounted to the seat cushion. The seat assembly includes a seat track mechanism having a lower track member (18) and an upper track member (20) supported by the lower track member (18) for movement between forward and rearward positions. An incremental locking mechanism is mounted between the upper and lower track members (18) for locking the track members in a desired position and for unlocking the track members to allow the upper track member (20) to move between the forward and rearward positions. A slide actuator is disposed adjacent the locking mechanism and is moveable to an engaged position for disengaging the locking mechanism and moving the upper track member (20) to a forward dump position. The seat assembly (10) also includes a positioning device which comprises a locator mounted to the upper track member (20) and moveable with the upper track member (20) as the upper track member (20) is moved to the forward dump position. The locator is interconnected to the slide actuator wherein the locator moves between a release position allowing the upper track member (20) to freely move relative to the lower track member (18) and a blocking position to align with a fixed stop which limits the movement of the upper track member (20) to a predetermined stop position upon rearward movement of the upper track member (20) from the forward dump position.

Title: Methods for removal of water from gases using superheated zeolites
Inventor: FUNKE HANS H
IPC: B01D53/28
Filed: 1999-10-06
Abstract: A method for removing trace moisture from a gas is disclosed. The method involves heating a zeolite having a high silica-to-alumina ratio to about 400 ~C to remove physically absorbed water from the zeolite, followed by heating the zeolite to a temperature in excess of 650 ~C, to form a superheated zeolite. Heating to temperatures of 650 ~C or above is believed to cause dehydroxylation of the zeolite. A method for the preparation of a dehydroxylated zeolite is also disclosed. The superheated zeolite is contacted with the gas, thereby adsorbing water from the gas. A dehydroxylated zeolite for removing trace moisture from a gas wherein the zeolite has a high silica-to-alumina ratio and a low level of metallic impurities is also disclosed. The zeolite and methods of the invention are particularly useful for removing trace water from acid gases such as hydrogen chloride and hydrogen bromide.

Title: Magnetic gas pump nozzle lever holder
Inventor: RISLING GILBERT PHILLIP
IPC: B67D7/50
Filed: 2001-05-22
Abstract: My invention is a magnetic, gas pump handle holder. It is used to hold the lever of a gas pump handle when filling gas, so the operator doesn't have to stand there holding the handle themselves. My invention is a one-piece, rigid unit with an opening to fit around the lever and upper portion of the gas pump handle. There is a magnet on one end of the unit. Once the gas pump nozzle is in the person's gas tank, the lever is manually raised to initiate gas flow. The 'holder' then takes the place of the person's hand, encompassing the lever and the upper portion of the handle, thus automatically holding the lever in the upright position, maintaining the gas flow. The magnet on the 'holder' will enable the operator to store the 'holder' on anything metal, such as the inside of his gas tank door.

IPC: A61P43/00
Filed: 1999-11-01
Abstract: The invention relates to a multiparticulate modified release composition that in operation delivers an active ingredient in a pulsed or bimodal manner. The multiparticulate modified release composition comprises an immediate release component and a modified release component; the immediate release component comprising a first population of active ingredient containing particles and the modified release component comprising a second population of active ingredient containing particles coated with a controlled release coating; wherein the combination of the immediate release and modified release components in operation deliver the active ingredient in a pulsed or a bimodal manner. The invention also relates to a solid oral dosage form containing such a multiparticulate modified release composition. The plasma profile achieved by the multiparticulate modified release composition is advantageous in reducing patient tolerance to the active ingredient and in increasing patient compliance by reducing dosage frequency.

Title: Warp triplet forming fabrics with optional weft binder yarns
Inventor: STONE RICHARD
IPC: D21F1/00
Filed: 2001-07-11
Abstract: A forming fabric having a paper side layer and a machine side layer comprises at least two systems of weft yarns and warp yarns including both non-binding yarns and triplet sets of warp binder yarns. In the fabric weave pattern, each member of each triplet set of warp yarns interweaves with the paper side weft yarns to occupy in sequence segments of an unbroken warp path in the paper side surface, and the members of each triplet interlace in pairs with single machine side layer weft yarns. Each segment in the unbroken warp path is separated by at least one paper side layer weft yarn. Each triplet set is separated from the adjacent triplet sets by at least one non-binding warp yarn. In a modification of this forming fabric, the weft yarns also include paired binding weft yarns, the pairs being separated from adjacent pairs by at least one non-binding weft yarn. The machine side layer interlacing points can be regularly or irregularly spaced. Paper products made using these fabrics have enhanced printability.

Inventor: TOU JACOB S
IPC: C07K1/12
Filed: 2000-04-26
Abstract: This invention describes a method of removing N-terminal alanine residues fr om polypeptides, preferably recombinant proteins, using an aminopeptidase deriv ed from the marine bacterium Aeromonas proteolytica. Accordingly, Aeromonas aminopeptidase (AAP; E.C. 3.4.11.10) can be used to remove N-terminal alanyl  residues from derivatives of human somatotropin (hST, human growth hormone, or hGH), porcine somatotropin (pST), and bovine somtotropin (bST), for example,  to yield proteins having their native amino acid sequences. The enzyme reactions can be carried out in free solution, or the AAP can be immobilized  on a solid support, for reactions carried out in vitro. An efficient method for converting Ala-hGH to hGH, for example, comprises expression of Ala-hGH in E. coli, recovery of inclusion bodies, solubilization and refolding in detergent, detergent removal by ultrafiltration, selective precipitation, enzyme cleavage, followed by two column chromatography steps.

Patent CA-2380736-A1 (CA)
Inventor: HARRIS JOEL S
IPC: A61B10/02
Filed: 2002-04-02
Abstract: An apparatus to excise a sample of material and temporarily store sample has a tubular clamshell casing at an angle to the horizontal, blended to a tubular boss under which is a tubular sample sleeve extending downwards from the boss. Within the casing an electric motor is housed which drives, via gears, the sample sleeve in a rotational manner. The end of the sleeve distal from the boss forms a cutting edge circumscribing a circular region. An ejection rod slides reciprocally within the sample sleeve between a stowed position and an expulsion position. When the ejection rod moves from the stowed position to the expulsion position, it will extend past the cutting blade and expel any sample of material contained within the cutting sleeve. A user cuts a sample from a source material using the cutting blade of the apparatus when the ejection rod is in the stowed position. The sample is cut when the cutting blade engages contact against the sample and gentle downward pressure is applied while a finger trigger activates the electric drive to rotate the cutting sleeve. Alternately a user may cut a sample from a source material by engaging contact between the cutting edge of the tubular sleeve and the source material, applying downward pressure against the source material thereby activating the electric drive to rotate the tubular cutting sleeve. Once the source material has been cut it is simultaneously extracted and lodged within the tubular sleeve. The extracted sample remains lodged in the tip of the tubular cutting sleeve until the user actuates the ejection rod through the sleeve to the expulsion position to eject the sample of source material. Return actuation of the eject rod is comprised of a coil spring that biases the rod in the retracted stowed position.
