Patent CA-2175768-A1 (CA)
Title: Traveling self-cleaning fish screen
Inventor: GARGAN EUGENE L JR
IPC: B01D33/056
Filed: 1996-05-03
Abstract: A traveling water and fish screen device is provided for separating debris from channels of flowing of water. The device includes a carriage that is placed in the water flow and a screen mounted in the carriage which utilizes a continuous band of specially constructed rigid grate panels pivotally attached to and separated by support members in the form of cross bars between each panel. Special hinges are used which provide an extremely small gap between each panel and the adjacent cross bars, which gap is maintained as the as the band rotates around upper and lower cylinders in the carriage. Flaps are provided on the outward, upstream edges of the carriage to prevent debris from coming into contact with the cylinders, support chains or sprockets of the device.      The rigid grate panels each have a first set of parallel cross members, and a second set of parallel cross members that are perpendicular to the first set. The ends of the cross members on the outward, upstream surface of each panel are flat and smooth to help prevent entanglement of debris and injury to fish. These same cross members are also tapered such that they are wider on the outward, upstream surface tapering to a more narrow cross-section toward the inside surface which facilitates easier cleaning with a pressurized spray.
Patent CA-2176265-A1 (CA)
Inventor: LANDERS DAVID J
IPC: G06M1/10
Filed: 1996-05-10
Abstract: An apparatus and method for accurately counting the number of articles passing along an article path. A light beam is transmitted across an article path to a sensor, which light beam is interfered with by the passage of articles along the article path and the received light beam is converted to electrical signals that are conditioned, amplified and input to a logic unit which, based on derived amplitude, duration and area of the input signals, determines the number of articles that passed along the article path. A system is also described which accurately counts the number of articles passing along a plurality of article paths by employing a plurality of such devices each of which accurately counts the articles passing along each article path and, upon instructions from a master console, sends its counts to the master console for summation. The system further includes a network architecture with simplified wire harnessing and enhanced operation.

Title: Humidity sensor
Inventor: KIMURA MITSUTERU
IPC: G01N27/18
Filed: 1995-12-27
Abstract: In order to provide a humidity sensor of a heat conduction type which enables the humidity measurement by a single temperature sensing resistor so as to reduce the change in characteristic depending on the temperature change of the measurement atmosphere and to reduce the cost, a temperature sensing resistor 1 and three fixed resistors R1, R2, and R3 form a Wheatstone bridge circuit. The humidity is measured by utilizing the fact that the heat radiation of the temperature sensing resistor 1 changes depending on the humidity. The temperature sensing resistor 1 is heated by a heat generator 2 for self-radiation of Joule heat so that the temperature of the temperature sensing resistor 1 is controlled to a constant temperature of 300°C or more.      The output voltage value of the Wheatstone bridge circuit is corrected with reference to the variation of the output voltage value depending on the ambient temperature of the temperature sensing resistor 1.

Abstract: A transluminal arrangement for positioning a prosthesis assembly at an aneurysm in the bifurcated lumen of the aorta and the common iliac arteries extending therefrom. The prosthesis assembly includes a bifurcated endovascular graft having a main body and ipsilateral and contralateral limbs extending therefrom. The assembly also includes main, ipsilateral, and contralateral spring assemblies each having a compressed state.

The transluminal arrangement comprises an elongated member extending through the main and ipsilateral bores of the graft and includes attachment sutures and an inner catheter extending therethrough for temporarily attaching the main and ipsilateral spring assemblies to the elongated member. An outer sheath contains the attached prosthesis assembly, whereas stent boots consisting of short length sheaths contain the ipsilateral and contralateral spring assemblies. A control limb delivery catheter and attachment sutures maintain the contralateral graft limb and spring assembly in the stent boot for placement in the contralateral iliac artery.

Title: Immobilized enzyme and its use for the processing of triglyceride oils
Inventor: GROTE MARTIN ROGER
IPC: C12N9/16
Filed: 1996-06-14
Abstract: Process for the immobilization of an enzyme, characterized by the steps comprising: a) selecting an amphiphilic enzyme for immobilization, b) preparing an emulsion comprising a continuous hydrophobic phase and a dispersed aqueous phase in which are dissolved the enzyme and material suitable to act as carrier for the enzyme when the next step is carried out, c) removing water from the aqueous phase until this phase turns into solid enzyme coated particles. A preferred aqueous phase is prepared with a crude lipase fermentation liquid from which the biomass has been removed and which still contains fermentation residues suitable to act as carrier. Processes using the immobilized enzyme comprise interesterification, deacidification and degumming of triglyceride oils and show a very low enzyme consumption. Besides lipases suitable amphiphilic enzymes are phospholipases.
