Patent CA-2442514-A1 (CA)
Inventor: STUKALIN FELIX
IPC: G02B26/08
Filed: 2002-03-29
Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif destinés à positionner une surface (30) selon une orientation souhaitée. On utilise un élément mobile (10) supporté mobile par un élément fixe (40), cet élément mobile comprenant un élément optique, tel qu'un miroir plat (30), monté fixe sur celui-ci. Dans un mode de réalisation, le miroir permet la mise en balayage d'un faisceau de rayonnement incident sur un axe unique. Dans un second mode de réalisation, le faisceau de rayonnement est mis en balayage sur deux axes réciproquement perpendiculaires. Un élément magnétique (50) doté d'un pôle magnétique nord et sud est monté fixe sur l'élément mobile (10). Un élément stator magnétiquement perméable (70) disposé fixe par rapport à l'élément mobile (10) et à l'élément magnétique (50) est placé dans le champ de l'élément magnétique (50) de manière que l'élément stator (70) et l'élément magnétique (50) produisent mutuellement une force de traction magnétique entre eux. Une bobine de courant (60) est enroulée autour d'une partie de l'élément stator (70), un dispositif d'attaque (400) permettant de générer un courant dans cette bobine de courant (60). Le courant induit un champ électromagnétique dans l'élément stator (70), la force électromagnétique agissant sur ledit élément magnétique (50) de façon à commander le mouvement de la surface (30) par rapport à l'élément fixe (40). Une source de faisceau de rayonnement (502) peut être dirigée vers la surface de miroir mobile (30) et mise en balayage par mouvement dudit miroir, ce qui permet de diriger le faisceau de rayonnement dans un sens de propagation souhaité.

Title: Needle tip guard for percutaneous entry needles
Inventor: OHNEMUS RANDALL
IPC: A61M5/34
Filed: 2002-04-24
Abstract: A needle tip protective device for use with percutaneous entry needles. In one embodiment, the needle tip protective device includes a needle guard (22) slidably mounted on a hypodermic needle, the latter having a needle tip located at the distal end thereof, and a change of profile formed medially there along. The needle guard (22) is movable along the hypodermic needle and engageable with the change in profile formed thereon. The engagement with the change in profile is configured to correspond with the ability of the needle trap (41) to entrap the needle tip once the needle trap (41) has advanced the sufficient distance distally along the hypodermic needle. In further refinements, the needle trap (41) may be biased toward the distal needle tip of the needle.
Patent CA-2446498-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MUALLA IMAD H
IPC: F16F15/02
Filed: 2002-05-09
Abstract: The invention is a damper and a method for protecting buildings and similar structural systems from dynamic loading such as loading caused by earthquakes, strong winds or machine vibrations. More specifically, the damper is made from structural members being interconnected in frictional or visco-elastically dampened rotational joints. Due to the dampening of the joints, relative movement between the structural elements is dampened. In particular, the damper is useful for base isolation, e.g. in order to allow a building or a machine to move in a dampened movement relative to its foundation or in order to allow a cable stay of a cable stay bridge to move in a dampened movement relative its fixation point on the bridge.

Patent CA-2464815-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MENDOZA ANTON
IPC: H04M15/00
Filed: 2004-04-22
Abstract: Discloses a system for making a telephone call over a public switched telephone network where the caller uses a telephone to dial a number to a call completion server and hangs up the telephone before the call is completed. The call completion server receives caller ID information on the incompleted call and decodes that information to make an outbound call back to the telephone that the caller used to call the call completion server. The caller receives the return inbound call and enters an authorization code. For a valid authorization code, the caller will be prompted to enter a destination telephone number, which is then called by the call completion server. That call is bridged to the line that the caller is on allowing the call to the destination telephone number to proceed in the normal fashion. In another arrangement, a call to a predetermined destination telephone number is made and bridged to the caller line when a valid authorization code is entered.

Title: Mycobacterial genes down-regulated during latency
Inventor: JAMES BRIAN WILLIAM
IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 2002-10-21
Abstract: A method is provided for identifying mycobacterial genes the expression of which is down-regulated during a stationary phase culture of mycobacteria under nutrient-starving conditions when compared with an exponential phase culture of mycobacteria under culture conditions that are not nutrient-starving and that support exponential growth of said mycobacteria. The described method optionally provides for identifying mycobacterial genes that are simultaneously down-regulated under low DOT conditions. The down-regulated genes of the present invention form the basis of nucleic acid vaccines, or provide targets to allow preparation of attenuated mycobacteria for vaccines against mycobacterial infections. Similarly, peptides encoded by said down-regulated genes are employed in vaccines. In a further embodiment, the identified genes/peptides provide the means for identifying the presence of a mycobacterial infection in a clinical sample by nucleic acid probe or antibody detection.

Abstract: Sensors that are capable measuring the rate of flow of a fluid that passes over the electrodes of the sensor. In these sensors, an electrode, designate d the flow rate-determining electrode, is used in conjunction with the conventional electrodes, e.g., the working electrode, the reference electrod e, and the counter electrode, to determine the rate of flow of the fluid. In on e aspect, this invention provides a sensor for measuring the concentration of an analyte in a sample of fluid when the sample flows continuously over the electrodes of the sensor, especially when the rate of flow of the sample is relatively low. In another aspect, this invention provides a method for measuring the concentration of an analyte in a sample of fluid, wherein the rate of flow of the sample varies during the period of time that the sensor is in place. In a preferred embodiment, the sensor employs four electrodes, namely, a working electrode, a reference electrode, a counter electrode, and a flow rate-determining electrode. Alternatively, a single electrode that performs both the function of the reference electrode and the function of th e counter electrode can replace the reference electrode and the counter electrode. In addition, a dummy electrode or a blank electrode can be used t o compensate for interference from electrochemically active species. The reagent(s) specific to the analyte of interest is required to be deposited o n the working electrode.
