Patent CA-2497500-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SHAMIR AMOS
IPC: B65D45/16
Filed: 2003-08-22
Abstract: La présente invention concerne une fermeture inviolable (10, 300) destinée à être utilisée avec des contenants de stérilisation. La fermeture comprend une partie corps (12, 312) pourvue d'un matériau indiquant la stérilisation (16) et une languette (14, 314) s'étendant depuis la partie corps. La languette peut se présenter sous la forme d'un stratifié constitué de deux couches extérieures (20, 22, 320, 322) sensiblement inertes placées de chaque côté d'une couche intérieure (24, 324) hautement thermorétractable. La languette est conçue pour entrer en contact avec le mécanisme de verrouillage (106) d'un contenant de stérilisation (100) lorsque le contenant est en position fermée et que le mécanisme de verrouillage est en position verrouillée. Lors de l'exposition du contenant à des conditions de stérilisation, la languette se rétracte, les couches extérieures se repliant ainsi sur elles-mêmes pour former au moins un pli (200, 390, 392). Le mécanisme de verrouillage du contenant ne peut pas être ouvert sans fracturer la languette de la fermeture, ce qui permet d'obtenir une preuve visible que le mécanisme de verrouillage a été ouvert.

IPC: C11D1/60
Filed: 2003-10-08
Abstract: The invention relates to a fragrance composition, comprising at least one ionic fluid as fixative and production and use thereof. Said fragrance compositions have the advantage that the volatilisation of the basic aromati c components can be adjustably delayed with the ionic fluid as a polar solvent which has almost no partial pressure. The large choice of ionic fluids permi ts a precise adjustment of the volatilisation rate of the aromatic components. As the polarity of the ionic fluid can be varied over wide ranges by means of t he structure of the cations and/or anions, the ionic fluid used as fixative can be precisely matched to the physico-chemical and/or olfactory requirements o f the aromatic components.

Abstract: L'invention concerne, de façon générale, des communications, et plus particulièrement, un procédé et un appareil destinés à minimiser le décalage en continu et les produits de modulation de second ordre (bruit IM2) tout en démodulant des signaux RF. Le principe de cette invention peut être appliqué à des circuits différentiels, abaisseurs de fréquence (50) consistant en deux mélangeurs différentiels (54, 56) en série, comme suit: une paire de sources de courant Ia et Ib sont utilisées pour alimenter les canaux positif et négatif du premier mélangeur différentiel (54) en courant. L'alimentation en courant des transistors d'amplification du premier mélangeur (54) réduit la quantité de courant traversant les commutateurs du mélangeur actif, réduisant ainsi le bruit produit. Les sources de courant Ia et Ib sont abaissées en fréquence de façon complémentaire: Ia = I + .DELTA.I, et Ib = - .DELTA.I. La valeur de .DELTA.I peut être déterminée de plusieurs manières, par exemple, elle peut être établie par test après fabrication du circuit, et stockage sur puce de la valeur, pour une utilisation future.

Abstract: The invention relates to the validation, by the FMS flight management computer on board an aerodyne, of a flight plan (Dpv) constraint, such as altitude, at an imposed fly-by point close to the position of the aerodyne at the moment when the automatic flight plan-following system is activated. According to the invention, one such constraint is validated in advance by looking into the near future using an aerodyne movement forecast (Pt), taking account of the movement of the aerodyne during the transition between the application of the current flying orders before the activation of the automatic following system and the flying orders newly provided by the FMS flight computer (30) at the time of activation.

Title: 2-aryl-acetic acids, their derivatives and pharmaceutical compositions containing them
Inventor: MORICONI ALESSIO
IPC: C07D471/04
Filed: 2004-02-04
Abstract: Selected 2-arylacetic acids, their derivatives and pharmaceutical compositions that contain these compounds are useful in inhibiting chemotactic activation of neutrophils (PMN leukocytes) induced by the interaction of Interleukin-8 (IL-8) with CXCR1 and CXCR2 membrane receptors. The compounds are used for the prevention and treatment of pathologies deriving from said activation. In particular, 2(ortho)-substituted arylacetic acids or their derivatives, such as amides and sulfonamides, lack cyclo-oxygenase inhibition activity and are particularly useful in the treatment of neutrophil-dependent pathologies such as psoriasis, ulcerative colitis, melanoma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), bullous pemphigoid, rheumatoid arthritis, idiopathic fibrosis, glomerulonephritis and in the prevention and treatment of damages caused by ischemia and reperfusion.

Title: Method and programmable apparatus for quantum computing
Inventor: KOHN WOLF
IPC: G06F7/38
Filed: 2004-02-17
Abstract: A method and apparatus for quantum computing. A computer-program source code, data, and unsubstantiated output variables are converted into a class of computable functions by a program compiler. The computable functions are encoded, and a continualization method is applied to the encoded functions to determine a first-order, time-dependent, differential equation. Variational calculus is employed to construct a Lagrangian whose minimum geodesic is the solution for the first-order, time-dependent, differential equation. The Lagrangian is converted into a quantum, canonical, Hamiltonian operator which is realized as an excitation field via an excitation generator. The excitation field is repeatedly applied to a quantum processor consisting of a lattice of polymer nodes to generate an intensity-versus-vibrational-frequency spectrum of the lattice nodes. The average vibrational spectrum intensity values are used as coefficients in an approximating polynomial of the encoding function to determine the substantiated output variables, or program output.

Abstract: A pre-form and a method of preparing pre-forms are provided. The pre-forms comprise a resin and at least two layers of oriented fibre tows. The pre-for ms comprise fibre tows instead of the traditional prepregs to enhance rearrangi ng of resin and/or fibres during subsequent processing as well as provide great er freedom, a price reduction and/or a reduction of waste. The pre-forms may be formed three-dimensionally to enhance coupling to further pre-forms or other structures and/or to enhance shaping of the pre-form to a final three- dimensional shape. The method of preparation of pre-forms involves providing an adhesive between layers of fibres and providing a resin in contact with a t least one of the layers of fibres. The resin is preferably provided in a non - continuous layer to allow for removal of gas at least partially in a directi on orthogonal to the layers of resin.

A  winning condition occurs when a predetermined minimum number of identical icons in the one or more player-selected betting lines are displayed. If a bonus feature icon is displayed by at least one of the cells, a bonus feature is automatically activated enabling the player to earn additional winnings. The present invention may be configured as a slot machine and provided within a gaming establishment. Additionally, the present invention is also configurable as an online betting game playable over a network or as a user-installable program installable on a personal computer or other such computing device.
