Patent CA-2348984-C (CA)
Inventor: HOECK ROGER
IPC: A61M5/32
Filed: 2001-05-28
Granted: 2009-05-19
Abstract: A hypodermic syringe with a selectively retractable needle includes an elongate barrel defining a receiver and a hollow bore. The syringe has a plunger with an elongate cavity open to the proximal end. The plunger is sized to fit within the bore of the barrel for a slidable movement to define a chamber for receiving and expelling fluids. The inside diameter of the cavity in the plunger is sufficient to accept telescopically at least a part of a first portion of the plunger. A second portion and the first portion are joined at an attachment to form a shoulder extending outwardly from the first portion, with the plunger being telescopically collapsible by movement of the second portion into the cavity by of sufficient distal force to frangibly disrupt the attachment. The syringe includes an elongate sleeve sized to fit over the first portion of the plunger and extend from the shoulder. The plunger includes a stopper to a form fluid tight seal with the barrel. The sleeve has a cutting surface inside of the stopper. The syringe includes a hub with a proximal flange and a passageway within the receiver. The syringe has a needle with a pointed distal end mounted in the passageway of the hub extending distally outwardly. When sufficient distal force is applied to collapse the plunger, the cutting surface of the sleeve cuts through the stopper and through the flange of the hub and releases it from the receiver to retract the needle.

Patent CA-2359152-C (CA)

IPC: A61B17/32
Filed: 2001-10-17
Granted: 2009-09-29
Abstract: The ability of an ultrasonic system to sweep and lock onto a resonance frequency of a blade subjected to a heavy load at startup is improved by applying a high drive voltage or a high drive current while systematically increasing the level of the applied signal. Increasing the drive signal to the hand piece results in an improved and more pronounced "impedance spectrum." That is, under load, the increased drive signal causes the maximum phase margin to become higher and the minimum/maximum impedance magnitude to become more pronounced. Increasing the excitation drive signal to the hand piece/blade at startup significantly alleviates the limiting factors associated with ultrasonic generators, which results in an increase of the maximum load capability at startup.

Abstract: A crop harvesting header includes a cutter bar arranged across a forward edge of a header frame structure, a draper or auger transport arrangement for transporting the cut crop for further processing, and a reel mounted on reel arms for controlling movement of the crop in the area over the cutter bar with the reel having a plurality of reel bats at spaced positions around the reel axis each reel bat having reel fingers projecting generally radially outwardly from the reef axis, the reel bats all lying on a common bat circle around the reel axis so that rotation of the reel causes the reel bats to follow a path of movement lying on the bat circle. A  non-circular stationary cam track surrounds the reel axis within the bat circle so that the end most fingers of the bats are located in line with the cam and immediately adjacent the end sheet. Each bat is pivoted by a crank attached to the bat and a control link having one end freely pivotally connected to the outer end of the bat lever and having a cam follower the other end. A pulling link communicates rotation of the reel to the control link such that the cam follower thereof is caused to move along the cam track at a predetermined position therein. The crank is adjustable relative to the control link to change bat finger angle to provide a change in crop lift before the cutter bar while maintaining finger pattern. The cam location is adjustable around the reel axis to change the finger pattern.

Abstract: A method is provided for treating hormone-regulated tumors (for example, breast and prostatic tumors) in mammals, including humans, by administration of an antisense ODN which is complementary to a portion of the gene encoding IGFBP-5. Using the Shionogi tumor model in vitro and in vivo, the administration of such an ODN was shown to reduce proliferation of tumor cells, and also to delay the progression to androgen independence. Thus, treatment of prostate cancer in mammals, including humans, and delay of the progression of prostate tumors to androgen independence is accomplished by administering to the mammal a therapeutically effective amount of an antisense oligodeoxynucleotide which is complementary to a portion of the nucleic acid sequence encoding IGFBP-5 and which hybridizes with such a sequence to inhibit expression of IGFBP-5. Specific antisense ODN's which are suitable for use in the method are GACCACGCTGATCACCAT (Seq. ID. No. 1), which is derived from the murine gene sequence, and CGCGGTGAGCAACACCAT (Seq. ID. No. 3) and AGGTCATGCAGCAGCCGC (Seq. ID No 4), which are derived from the human gene sequence.

Abstract: A CDMA cellular communications network (400, FIG. 4) includes one or more aircraft (410), which relay pilot channel and control channel signals between base transceiver stations (BTS's 406, 413) and subscriber units (401). Over the control channel, the BTS transmits a handoff candidate list to the subscriber units. The handoff candidate list identifies candidate BTS's to which the subscriber unit, theoretically, could hand off. In addition, the list indicates at which offsets the subscriber units should search for short codes transmitted by the candidate BTS's over the pilot channel. Based on the path length between the BTS, aircraft, and subscriber unit, the candidate BTS's actually generate their short codes at an offset that is equal to or earlier than the offset reported to the subscriber unit by some delta. In addition, the BTS's can impose a variable delay on the generated short code bits to compensate for variations in the path delay as the aircraft flies in its flight pattern.
