Filed: 1998-08-25
Granted: 2007-02-13
Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un appareil de valorisation d'une matière solide. Le procédé consiste à chauffer la matière solide jusqu'à une température élevée de manière à éliminer l'eau, puis à refroidir la matière solide valorisée. Le procédé consiste à utiliser une pluralité de bacs contenant des lits tassés de matière solide et un ou plusieurs circuits d'échange thermique destinés au chauffage et au refroidissement de la matière solide dans les lits tassés des bacs à l'aide d'un fluide caloporteur. On gère le processus de manière que la matière solide d'un premier groupe de bacs subisse une ou plusieurs phases du cycle de chauffage et que la matière solide d'un second groupe de bacs subisse une ou plusieurs phases du cycle de refroidissement. En particulier, on gère le processus par connexion sélective des circuits d'échange thermique avec les bacs de façon que le fluide caloporteur se réchauffe au contact de la matière solide en phase de refroidissement dans l'un au moins des bacs du premier groupe, puis transmette cette chaleur à la matière solide en phase de chauffage dans l'un au moins des bacs du second groupe.

Title: Explosion prevention system for internal turret mooring system
Inventor: CORDER RICHARD M
IPC: E21B43/01
Filed: 2000-03-03
Granted: 2003-05-06
Abstract: A method and apparatus for ensuring against explosion of the gaseous atmosphere of a closed chamber, such as the QDCD room of an internal turret of an offshore production and offloading buoy wherein the closed chamber has production risers and conduit connectors that represent a potential source of flammable gas. The method comprises mixing a nd diluting the oxidant content of the air by introducing within the closed chamber a sufficient quantity of inert gas to render the mixture of the air and any flammable gas noncombustible regardless of the flammable gas content of the mixture. The method includes removal of the non-combustible mixture of air and any flammable gas from the closed chamber by purging thereof to the natural atmosphere, while introducing inert gas, thereby leaving a substantially inert atmosphere within said substantially closed chamber. The turret system provides for control of the gaseous atmosphere within the closed chamber at all modes of turret operation, including the idle, on-line and ventilation modes and also provides for gas pressure control to accommodate normal operating conditions and conditions of gas leakage into t he chamber.

Abstract: An analytical rotor (10) for separating cellular components from a biological sample includes a plurality of internal chambers and passages for combining the cell-free sample with one or more reagents and distributing the sample to a plurality of individual test wells (92). The chambers and passages necessary for separating cellular components from a sample such as whole blood include a measuring chamber (40), an overflow chamber (44), a separation chamber (60), and a reagent chamber (80). The measuring chamber (40) and overflow chamber (44) have capillary dimensions so that an initial volume of whole blood partitions therebetween, with the measuring chamber filling first to provide a preselected volume. The separation chamber (60) is located radially outward from both the measuring chamber (40) and the reagent chamber (80) so that spinning of the rotor causes both the reagent and the measured blood volume to flow outward into the separation chamber (60). A collection chamber (90) is formed to receive the plasma from the separation chamber (60). Further spinning of the rotor causes the plasma to flow radially outward into a plurality of test wells (92) formed around the periphery of the collection chamber (90). Testing of the separated plasma volumes may be performed without removing the plasma from the rotor.

Title: Procede et dispositif de mesure des annulus en chirurgie de remplacement valvulaire
Inventor: RHEE RICHARD
IPC: A61B5/107
Filed: 2000-09-13
Granted: 2008-12-02
Abstract: La présente invention concerne une calibreuse qui mesure l'annulus valvulaire de façon à déterminer le calibre d'une valvule artificielle à suturer dans l'annulus valvulaire en chirurgie de remplacement valvulaire. La calibreuse est constituée d'un élément support et d'un élément résilient. La taille de l'élément support correspond la taille de l'une des différentes valvules artificielles. L'élément résilient, qui est vient autour de l'élément support, présente une résilience sensiblement égale à celle de la bague de suture de la valvule artificielle. Ainsi, lorsque le chirurgien insère la calibreuse dans l'annulus valvulaire, l'élément résilient épouse la forme de l'annulus valvulaire, de la même façon que la bague de suture le fera lorsqu'elle sera mise en place et suturée dans l'annulus. Cela permet au chirurgien de déterminer avec encore plus de précision la taille de l'annulus, et, à la suite, de choisir la valvule artificielle de la taille voulue.
