Title: Device and method for locating and resecting bone
Inventor: TROXELL THOMAS N
IPC: A61B17/56
Filed: 1999-11-22
Granted: 2002-03-21
Abstract: A device and method for the location of a pedicle and resection of the corresponding lamina are disclosed. The device includes an osteotome having a cutting element configured and dimensioned to remove a section of bone sized to accommodate a portion of an implant; and a pedicle finder having a handle at a proximal end for manipulation of the pedicle finder, a pedicle locator at a distal end connected to the handle by a shaft, and a osteotome guide located on the shaft configured and dimensioned to slidingly engage at least a portion of the osteotome. By providing the osteotome guide on the same device as the pedicle locator and configuring the cutting element of the osteotome and osteotome guide to remove a fixed section of bone, the size and position of the resected bone is optimized to help ensure proper seating of an implant such as a pedicle hook.

Title: Apparatus and method for high temperature disposal of hazardous waste material
Inventor: SCHLIENGER MAX P
IPC: F23G5/10
Filed: 1988-05-03
Granted: 1991-02-14
Abstract: An improved plasma torch incinerator or reactor in which the incinerator uses a rotating, materials-receiving drum (30) or chamber for receiving the hot plasma of a plasma torch (72). By properly constructing the inner surface of the rotatable drum (30) and by varying the speed of rotation of the drum (30), waste materials can be effectively spread out over the inner surface of the drum (30) to form a relatively thin layer of waste materials which has a large surface area which can be more quickly heated to the desired high temperatures provided by the plasma torch (72). Moreover, the spreading out of the waste materials can cause them to be recirculated and mixed by periodically reducing the speed of rotation of the drum (30). The plasma of the plasma torch (72) is not directed toward a stationary part of the drum (30). Instead, the plasma torch (72) is directed at a rotatable portion of the drum (30) which provides for a better heat distribution and permits portions of the drum (30) to cool during the intervals when they are not in direct contact with the plasma. Thus, liquid as well as solid waste materials can be fed together into the rotating drum (30).

Title: Method and system for processing records in a communications system
Inventor: PORTER KELVIN R
IPC: G06Q20/14
Filed: 2000-12-04
Granted: 2004-05-27
Abstract: In a communications network that provides services to a plurality of users, events occurring during service processing are accumulated in an event record and sent to a record processor to perform post-processing, such as assessing charges to be billed to users of the network. Each service processing node in the communications network accumulates event records, bundles them with instructions as to how they are be processed, and dispatches them to one or more record processors. Before being sent to a record processor, an event record is augmented with instructions describing how to perform processing upon the events in the event record. The record processors are general-purpose processors and the instructions for post-processing are carried within the event records themselves. Post-processors are no longer required to be dedicated to a particular purpose such as billing computation. Furthermore, deployment of post-processing function is more timely and can be integrated with deployment of service processing functions to network service processors.

Title: Regular division of melt flow in extrusion of blown films
Inventor: CREE ROBERT E
IPC: B29C48/10
Filed: 1997-08-26
Granted: 2001-04-05
Abstract: An extrusion die having a plurality of die layers stacked one upon the other in a direction generally parallel to the central axis. Each of the layers has an annular flow distribution ring (40) having an outer generally cylindrical surface and an annular feed ring surrounding and engaging the outer surface of the distribution ring (42, 42d). At the engaged surfaces of the feed and distribution ring, the flow from the feed ring is divided into a number of substantially equal flow portions. Seals (43a, 43b) between adjacent engaged surfaces confine the flow between the circumferential surfaces of the feed and distribution ring. Half of the flow portions are directed to a recombination region (45, 46) on one side of the distribution ring (42d), and half are directed to a recombination region (45, 46) on the other side of the ring (42d). In recombining, weld lines are formed in high flow areas minimizing the deleterious effect of polymer degradation. Subsequently, the flows on the opposite sides of the distribution ring (42d) are recombined such that the weld lines from one half are first modified to exhibit lower flow and then are layered with non-weld line portions modified to exhibit higher flow from the other half. This further minimizes the negative effect of weld line areas. Flow from the two sides is regularly divided to yield even distribution of the combined flows. <IMAGE>
