Title: Multi-use multimodal imaging chelates
Inventor: BORNHOP DARRYL J
IPC: C07F9/6524
Filed: 2002-09-04
Granted: 2011-02-15
Abstract: Cyclen-based chelates can be used as contrast agents for multi-modal imaging of tissue cells. The cyclen-based chelates are preferably polyazamacrocyclic molecules formed from 1,4,7,10, tetraazacyclododecane ("cyclen") having varying chelating ions, phosphoester chains, and light harvesting moieties. By changing the chelating ion, phosphoester chain length and/or the light harvesting moiety different imaging techniques, such as MRI, CT, fluorescence and absorption, x-ray and NIR, may be employed to image the tissue cells.  Additionally, the cyclen-based chelates may be conjugated to provide for site-specific delivery of the cyclen-based chelate to the desired tissue cells. The cyclen-based chelates may also be delivered to the tissue cells by attaching the cyclen-based chelates to a polymeric delivery vehicle. Although these cyclen-based chelates have a wide variety of application, the preferred use is for imaging of cancers cells, such as brain cancer, for improving resection of a cancerous tissue.

Title: Surgical stapling instrument having a firing lockout for an unclosed anvil
Inventor: SHELTON FREDERICK E IV
IPC: A61B17/068
Filed: 2004-05-20
Granted: 2012-05-15
Abstract: A surgical instrument for laparoscopic and endoscopic clinical procedures simultaneously severs and staples tissue clamped in an end effector comprising an elongate channel, which holds a staple cartridge, and a pivotally attached anvil. An E-beam firing bar engages the channel and selectively engages the anvil during distal firing movements, wherein the tissue is severed and stapled driven upward from the staple cartridge to form against the anvil. In particular an upper pin of the firing bar is disengaged from the anvil before firing. A ramped transition from an anvil to an anvil slot avoids misfiring when the end effector has clamped too much tissue, yet assists in successfully clamping a slightly excess amount of tissue.

Title: Semi-trailer suspension air spring control system
Inventor: PIERCE PHILLIPPI R
IPC: B60G17/052
Filed: 2002-12-17
Granted: 2007-04-17
Abstract: An automatic pneumatic control system (30) for the air springs (16) of a semi-trailer air-ride trailing beam-type axle/suspension system (11). A plurality of conduits (38,42,44) and valves (32,35,41,43) of the control system pneumatically interconnect one or more sources of compressed air (31,39), the vehicle parking brakes (37) and the suspension air springs (16). The control system (30) incorporates a vented two-position two-way pilot valve (52) for controlling inflation and deflation of each air spring (16). The valve (52) closes when air pressures in a pair of control system sensor lines (45,51) differ, thereby enabling complete or nearly complete deflation of the air spring (16) it controls before the parking brake (37) is set, thereby minimizing or eliminating the problems of trailer drop and walk during loading of an empty trailer, heretofore caused by complete or nearly complete deflation of the air springs (16) only after the parking brakes (37) are already set.

Title: Support de tubes antivibrations
Inventor: TOMOTAKI ROBERTO CARLOS
IPC: F16F15/00
Filed: 2004-05-25
Granted: 2009-12-29
Abstract: Un dispositif de support de tubes ou un piquet de tubes qui sert à soutenir les tubes dans le faisceau et à réduire les risques d'endommager les tubes en raison des vibrations induites par l'écoulement dans les faisceaux des tubes à l'intérieur des échangeurs de chaleur, des condenseurs ou de tout autre équipement de faisceaux de tubes. Le piquet du tube comporte une bande métallique allongée, insérée dans une voie tubulaire entre les tubes du faisceau tubulaire. Les zones de prise sur les tubes surélevés comme les crans d'arrêt ou les ondulations longitudinales sont disposées en rangées transversales à travers la bande à emplacements longitudinaux successifs sur toute sa longueur; ces zones de prise sur les tubes s'étendent latéralement vers l'extérieur des deux faces de la bande pour s'engager avec les tubes sur les côtés opposés de la voie tubulaire. De préférence, les zones de prise sur les tubes sont disposées de telle sorte qu'elles s'étendent à partir des deux faces de la bande de manière alternée, avec les zones de prise sur les tubes dans chaque rangée s'étendant en alternance à partir d'une face et puis de l'autre le long de la rangée. Cet agencement en alternance à l'intérieur de chaque rangée transversale est utilisé de préférence avec un second agencement alterné où les zones de prise sur le tube surélevé alternent d'un côté de la bande à l'autre au même endroit transversal dans les rangées successives. Les piquets des tubes peuvent être utilisés dans des formations de tubes rectangulaires ou triangulaires classiques avec les piquets insérés dans les voies alternatives des tubes afin d'assurer un support pour les tubes sur les deux côtés de la voie tubulaire. Le maintien des piquets des tubes dans le faisceau tubulaire peut être couplé avec une insertion plus facile en utilisant des zones alvéolées aux extrémités extérieures des piquets et des ondulations aux extrémités intérieures.

Title: A method of milking an animal
Inventor: VAN DEN BERG KAREL
IPC: A01K5/00
Filed: 2004-10-12
Granted: 2011-07-05
Abstract: A method of milking an animal, in which method a movable milking platform is used. The method comprises the following steps: setting the movable milking platform in motion, allowing an animal access to the milking platform, supplying a sort of feed to an animal on the milking platform, subsequently allowing the animal exit from the milking platform, and milking the animal on the milking platform during a milking period. The method further comprises the step of providing the animal a span of time on the milking platform in which the animal is not milked, the span of time having a magnitude that amounts to at least approximately half the milking period. The speed of movement of the milking platform being selected at least partially on the basis of a feed consumption duration of an animal present on the milking platform, such that the span of time has such a magnitude that an animal is provided a sufficient time to substantially complete its feed consumption during their stay on the platform, said span of time being smaller than 75 minutes.
Patent CA-2491107-C (CA)
Inventor: ELCOCK ALBERT F
IPC: G11B20/18
Filed: 2004-12-23
Granted: 2009-09-01
Abstract: A method for DVR (digital video recorder) recovery from interruptions is described. Interruptions include power failures, primary storage device failure, Emergency Alert broadcasts, loss of signal (LOS), etc. Upon detecting that an interruption has occurred, the DVR determines the duration of the interruption and consults a saved "journal" of DVR operations to determine what it was doing when the interruption occurred. If a program that was being recorded prior to the interruption is still running when the interruption ends, recording is resumed. If the interruption is long, then the DVR searches an electronic program guide to see if the program is available for re-recording at a later time. If so, it schedules re-recording at that time. Recovery methods for insufficient primary storage space are also described.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un bouchon pour un récipient et un procédé de production associé. Ce bouchon évite l'effet nuisible d'un noyau constitué, par exemple, en liège, bloque la pénétration de diverses odeurs dans le récipient depuis l'extérieur et évite les effets nuisibles dus à un bouchon absorbant l'odeur du contenu du récipient. Une surface (F1) d'un noyau (1), laquelle est en contact avec le liquide, et une périphérie (F2) rejoignant la surface en contact avec le liquide (F1) sont recouvertes d'une membrane de résine synthétique. Cette membrane est une résine polyester ou une membrane en résine synthétique (2) comprenant une résine polyester en tant que composant principal. Cette membrane (2) est collée à la surface en contact avec le liquide (F1) et à la périphérie extérieure (F2) du noyau (1) au moyen d'une couche d'adhésion (3). Une résine polyester ou un film en résine synthétique comprenant une résine polyester en tant que composant principal servent de membrane. Le noyau (1) est comprimé dans le film, lequel est étiré et chauffé. Puis, le film, la surface en contact avec le liquide (F1) et la périphérie extérieure (F2) du noyau (1) sont collés au moyen de la couche d'adhésion (3). On obtient ainsi un bouchon pour un récipient.
