Patent CA-2463163-C (CA)
Inventor: WU MIANXUE
IPC: B24D18/00
Filed: 1998-09-25
Granted: 2007-03-27
Abstract: A method of obtaining superabrasive grinding performance from tools employing less expensive, non-superabrasive conventional abrasive grain involves operating the conventional abrasive tool at ultra high tangential contact speed, (that is at least about 125 m/s). Such ultra high operating speeds can be achieved with segmented abrasive grinding wheels having segments formed from vitreous or resin bonded particles of aluminum oxide, silicon oxide, iron oxide, molybdenum oxide, vanadium oxide; tungsten carbide, silicon carbide and the like. The abrasive segments can be cemented to the core of the tool with an adhesive such as epoxy cement. Abrasive segments can be made to a significantly greater depth than traditional superabrasive-bearing segments, and consequently, should provide long life as well as high performance Additionally, conventional abrasive segments are easier to true and dress and to make into intricate profiles for grinding complex shaped work pieces.

Title: Method of cooling a downhole tool and a downhole tool
Inventor: HOFFARTH CLAYTON
IPC: E21B12/00
Filed: 2005-03-17
Granted: 2011-09-13
Abstract: A method of cooling a downhole tool. A first step involves providing a cooling chamber in the downhole tool. The cooling chamber is positioned in proximity to components to be cooled. A second step involves ports through defining walls of the downhole tool. The ports must be adapted to allow liquids from a well bore, in which the downhole tool is positioned, to communicate with the cooling chamber. A third step involves providing means to circulate liquids from the well bore in through the ports into the cooling chamber and out through the ports back into the well bore, such that the liquids in the cooling chamber are continually being replaced. A heat exchange takes place between the liquids in the cooling chamber and the components to be cooled. The liquids are continually being replaced dissipating heat into the well bore.

Title: Compositions d'extrait de rocou contenant des geranylgeraniols et modes d'utilisation
Inventor: TAN BARRIE
IPC: A61P3/00
Filed: 2004-04-08
Granted: 2014-03-25
Abstract: L'invention concerne une composition d'extrait de rocou contenant des cis et trans-géranylgéraniols (GG) et des tocotriénols (T3) non substitués en C5, exempts de tocophérol. Cette composition augmente la synthèse de novo des isoprénoïdes intermédiaires et de produits protéiques distaux, notamment de la coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) endogène, des dolichols (DL) et de toutes les protéines GG-prénylées et DL-glycosylées subséquentes, y compris les hemes GG-porphyrinés. Cette régénération des produits intermédiaires et distaux au moyen d'une composition d'extrait de rocou permet de faire rétrocéder les maladies d'origine myotoxique (qu'elles soient d'origine médicamenteuse ou non médicamenteuse), notamment les maladies affectant les muscles, les reins, les yeux, le tractus gastro-intestinal et la peau, les nerfs, le sang, ainsi que les syndromes affectant les fonctions énergétiques et la protection des LDL, liés aux CoQ10. Cette composition d'extrait de rocou augmente par voie anabolique la synthèse de novo endogène de CoQ10 au moyen d'une élongation/prénylation d'une chaîne latérale, et inversement, le CoQ10 augmente par voie catabolique la synthèse de novo endogène des GG au moyen d'une beta-oxydation de CoQ10. Cette composition d'extrait de rocou abaisse en outre la synthèse de novo et l'élimination des triglycérides (TG) chez l'humain au moyen d'une activation de PPAR et d'une inactivation de SREBP. Cette diminution des TG sous l'effet de l'extrait de rocou, provoque la régression des troubles d'insulinorésistance (IR) et des syndromes métaboliques (MS), du pré-diabète, du diabète et des maladies cardiovasculaires associées au diabète. Les GG activent de récepteur PPAR et provoquent une diminution des facteurs de transcription de SREBP. Cette composition d'extrait de rocou contenant des GG, inhibe la croissance cancéreuse, que l'action des GG dans la prénylation protéique soit requise ou non.

Abstract: A distractor for separating adjacent elements, such as vertebrae. The distractor preferably has a scissors-type distracting mechanism, either in a simple scissors or double-acting scissors configuration. Additionally, one or more of the blades, distracting mechanism, and handles are offset with respect to the other to facilitate visualization and to increase the space available for an implant holder. The blades are configured to enhance versatility of the distractor. In a first embodiment, the blades are removable from the jaws of the distractor such that different blades may be used depending on the patient and situation with which the distractor is to be used. In a second embodiment, curved portions are provided between the blades and jaws such that the blades are offset from the jaws in a smooth transition which does not expose sharp edges to the internal organs or vasculature of the patient. In a third embodiment, a pair of blades is provided on each jaw such that an implant may be inserted between the spaced apart blades without having a blade engage an external blade- receiving slot in the implant.

Abstract: A cutting system that includes a rotary blade cartridge that can be interchangeably used with a variety of cutting tools is disclosed. The cartridge houses a rotary blade assembly that is maintained in a secure and safe retracted state and that can be activated when the cartridge is inserted into a cutting tool. Activating a plunger of any of the cutting tools causes a piston of the rotary blade assembly to move the blade to an operative cutting position protruding from an aperture provided in the cartridge housing. Deactivating the plunger causes the blade to be return to its retracted and inoperative position within the housing. Cutting tools of the invention include rail cutters such as a primary workstation and a compact workstation, circle cutters, elliptical cutters, and freeform cutters. Each cutting tool is capable of receiving a rotary blade cartridge. Cartridges are freely interchangeable between the cutting tools.
