Patent CA-2576546-A1 (CA)
Inventor: VILLA FRANK L
IPC: C11D3/26
Filed: 2004-08-18
Abstract: A fine rinse solution that removes fine particulate, metal-based contaminants and mineral contaminants from man-made surfaces such as painted body panels of an automobile, comprising a rinse agent solution that provides an active rinse phase which sequesters and chelates all of the fine mineral and metal-based particulate acidic and benign deposits from the surface by simply applying and rinsing off the solution. The subsequent oxide seasoning on the finish is left intact, forming a substrate to which the rinse agent can bond, sequester and neutralize acidic mineral and metal-based particulate. Molecules in the rinse agent of the invention chemically bond to embedded oxides in and on the surface forming stable complexes on the paint finish. As fresh deposits arrive on the surface of the finish, the unsaturated stable complexes act to further sequester mineral and metal-based deposits and neutralize, or buffer, acidic deposits.

Patent CA-2600152-A1 (CA)
Inventor: KHANDEKAR AAMOD
IPC: H04L27/26
Filed: 2006-03-07
Abstract: A transmitter generates a pilot having a constant time-domain envelope and a flat frequency spectrum based on a polyphase sequence. To generate a pilot IFDMA symbol, a first sequence of pilot symbols is formed based on the polyphase sequence and replicated multiple times to obtain a second sequence of pilot symbols. A phase ramp is applied to the second pilot symbol sequence to obtain a third sequence of output symbols. A cyclic prefix is appended to the third sequence of output symbols to obtain an IFDMA symbol, which is transmitted in the time domain via a communication channel. The pilot symbols may be multiplexed with data symbols using TDM and/or CDM. A pilot LFDMA  symbol may also be generated with a polyphase sequence and multiplexed using TDM or CDM. A receiver derives a channel estimate based on received pilot symbols and using minimum mean-square error, least-squares, or some other channel estimation technique.

Title: Catheter with larger diameter proximal end portion
Inventor: SCHWEIKERT TIMOTHY
IPC: A61M31/00
Filed: 2006-03-09
Abstract: Catheter assembly (100) having at least one lumen (150 or 160) and joined to hub (106). While the lumen inner diameter(s) remain constant from distal end (144) of the catheter (140) to proximal end (142), the outer catheter diameter increases proximate the hub (106) providing increased resistance to kinking during connection and disconnection from medical apparatus. The increased proximal catheter diameter preferably is sufficiently large to plug the proximal end of an introducer sheath through which the catheter is inserted during patient placement, to plug the proximal sheath end and minimize blood aspiration therethrough, and later serves to fill the vascular insertion upon complete catheter insertion after removal of the introducer sheath again to minimize blood aspiration through the vascular incision. The catheter may have two lumens (150, 160) or more, joined to respective extension tubes in hub (106).
