Patent CA-2315731-A1 (CA)
Inventor: TROZERA THOMAS
IPC: A61F2/915
Filed: 1998-09-08
Abstract: The present invention is directed to an expandable stent (10) which is relatively flexible along its logitudinal axis to facilitate delivery through tortuous body lumens, but which is stiff, and stable enough radially in an expanded condition to maintain the patency of a body lumen such as an artery when implanted therein. The struts (50) of the present invention have a specific trapezoidal (54), triangular (56), or a reduced radii (58) configuration projecting radially outward that functions to reduce the forces necessary to penetrate the vessel wall thereby minimizing trauma or damage imparted to the wall during deployment. In addition, this design feature of the present invention helps secure the expanded stent so that it does not move once it is implanted, and furthermore minimizes projections into the blood stream.

Title: Local area network of serial intelligent cells
Inventor: BINDER YEHUDA
IPC: H04B3/54
Filed: 1999-07-12
Abstract: A serial intelligent cell (SIC) and a connection topology for local area networks using Electrically-conducting media. A local area network can be configured from a plurality of SIC's interconnected so that all communications between two adjacent SIC's is both point-to-point and bidirectional. Each SIC can be connected to one or more other SIC's to allow redundant communication paths. Communications in different areas of a SIC network are independent of one another, so that, unlike current bus topology and star topology, there is no fundamental limit on the size or extent of a SIC  network. Each SIC can optionally be connected to one or more data terminals, computers, telephones, sensors, actuators, etc., to facilitate interconnectivity among such devices.  Networks according to the present invention can be configured for a variety of applications, including a local telephone system, remote computer bus extender, multiplexers, PABX/PBX functionality, security systems, and local broadcasting services. The network can use dedicated wiring, as well as existing wiring as the in-house telephone or electrical wiring.

Title: Golfer training device
Inventor: MUNTZ MICHAEL CORNELIS
IPC: A63B69/36
Filed: 1999-10-29
Abstract: A golfer training device (50) is disclosed. The device (50) includes a first  strap (52) which is fastened around a golfer's leg above the knee (36). A second strap (14) is fastened just above the ankle (38) and below the calf muscle of the same leg. A third strap (16) is joined to and interconnects bo th the first and second straps (52, 14), and runs vertically up behind the leg to a type of quick-release adjusting clasp (70). All three straps are made of a  substantially inextensible, flexible material. The length of the third strap  (16) can be shortened by pulling on an adjusting strap (30), thereby causing  the leg to bend at the knee (36). A tube (64) behind the golfer's knee (36) ensures that there is also a horizontal pull on strap (52), which helps to securely hold strap (52) in place and prevent it from slipping down the leg.  Once the golfer sets the desired amount of flex in his knee (36), he will be  able to practice his golf swings secure in the knowledge that his knee will remain flexed throughout the full swing.
