Patent CA-2533368-C (CA)
Title: Electrosurgical system
Inventor: HAMEL ANDREW
IPC: A61B18/12
Filed: 2006-01-19
Granted: 2015-05-26
Abstract: An electrosurgical system comprising, among other things, a control console to which detachably connects one or more electrosurgical probes capable of coagulating and ablating tissue. The control console generates a selectively variable power signal having a duty cycle that is dynamically modulated so as to maintain an average power level of a probe that is lower than a predefined maximum power level. The system can also incorporate both an impedance monitoring system and a current monitoring system as means to detect potentially dangerous situations, as well as a monitoring system for detecting impedance at relatively low power levels upon first activation of the probe. The probe can also incorporate non- volatile memory for storing probe-specific operating parameter data, probe usage data, data restricting probe use, error codes, and control console updates.

Abstract: An existing box-making machine is retrofitted by first removing the pull rolls and impression cylinder and other associated parts and cross-ties. However, the heavy duty side frames and drums, including the print cylinder are left intact in the box-making machine. A vacuum transfer machine is then inserted in the box- making machine and mounted to the existing frame to replace the pull rolls that were removed. The vacuum transfer machine includes a hood enclosure having an impression cylinder for printing, and transport rolls on opposite sides of the impression cylinder for conveying the corrugated boards through the impression and print cylinders and to the die cutter. The boards are held against the transport rolls and the impression cylinder by vacuum generated in a vacuum chamber in the hood which also contains the transport rolls and the impression cylinder. The vacuum chamber contains a plurality of vacuum dampers for controlling the vacuum area in accordance with the size of the boards being processed. For creating vacuum in the vacuum chamber, high performance "volume blowers" are included on the top of the vacuum transfer machine. Exhaust air from the vacuum chamber is dispersed through filters located adjacent to the blowers. The hood is suspended from a cross-tie which is part of the vacuum transfer machine and adapted to be mounted to the opposite side frames of the existing box-making machines. The cross-tie has a vertically adjustable portion for adjusting the nip of the impression cylinder.

Title: Fuel cell module
Inventor: ASAI YASUYUKI
IPC: H01M8/10
Filed: 2005-04-26
Granted: 2010-01-19
Abstract: A fuel cell module, wherein slopes of a same angle .theta. relative to a bottom face are formed on both side faces to form a recessed groove in a tapered shape. Since the angle .theta. is provided to the side faces of the recessed groove, the exhaustion of gases from the accumulation of gases to the outside can be assisted by the side faces with the angle .theta. more than in a case where the side faces of the recessed groove are formed in right angled shapes even if the accumulation of gases is produced between an adhesive agent and the inner surfaces of the recessed groove when first and second separators are joined to each other for modularization by covering the first separator on the second separator. Thus, the accumulation of the gases can be prevented from occurring.

Abstract: Galvanically protected reinforcement dowel pins and methods of producing the same. In one embodiment, the reinforcement dowel pins comprise a bar or tube, the longitudinal exposed surfaces of which are covered by a heavy gauge of a sacrificial metal, such as zinc, zinc alloy, magnesium, magnesium alloy, aluminum, or aluminum alloy. The bar or tube comprises steel, carbon steel, or other ferrous metal. The heavy gauge of sacrificial metal is applied to the ferrous metal by various processes, such as roll bonding, lock seaming, welding, die casting, flame spraying, plasma spraying, dipping, sinking, and drawing. The resulting reinforcement dowel pins resist corrosion without sacrificing structural integrity, and are reasonable in materials and manufacturing costs. These dowel pins may be installed in adjacent concrete panels using conventional methods, and therefore do not introduce additional costs in installation.
