Patent CA-2275736-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MICHOT CHRISTOPHE
IPC: C08G65/16
Filed: 1999-06-21
Abstract: La présente invention concerne des polymères obtenus par amorçage anionique et portant des fonctions pouvant être activées par amorçage cationique qui ne sont pas réactives en présence de réactifs amorçant les polymérisations anioniques. La présence de telles fonctions à amorce cationique permettent une réticulation efficace du polymère après mise en forme, ou en particulier sous forme de film mince. Il est ainsi possible d'obtenir des polymères possédant des propriétés très bien définies, en termes masse moléculaire et densité de réticulation. Les polymères de l'invention sont capables de dissoudre des composés ioniques induisant une conductivité, pour la préparation d'électrolytes.

Title: Ring type based on call related information
Inventor: JOHANSON JAMES A
IPC: H04M1/727
Filed: 1999-09-28
Abstract: A telephone ring controller includes a database associating all or part of received call related information to any one of an available plurality of audible ring types. In the disclosed embodiments, a call related information/ring type association table is maintained associating area codes, exchange numbers, household names, and/or entire telephone numbers to a particular ring type. Alternatively or additionally, ring types may be associated with digits of an incoming telephone number. When a match is determined as between received call related information and a pre-stored entry in the call related information/ring type association table, a particular ring is output by a ringer capable of at least two different types of rings. If no match is found, the telephone system operates otherwise in a conventional fashion, i.e., a default ring signal is output by the ringer. The entries in the call related information/ring type association table may be input manually using a keypad at the telephone system. Alternatively, received call related information with respect to a current (or past) incoming telephone call can be stored as an entry in the call related information/ ring type association table and associated with a particular audible ring.

Abstract: A system for inserting a cannulated tissue anchor during endoscopic or other surgical procedures. The system incorporates an insertion instrument for inserting into a surgical site of implantation an elongated generally cylindrical tissue anchor having, for example, a plurality of barbs outwardly extending from its body and a transverse head situated at its proximal end. The anchor may be inserted by a single-handed operation of the instrument through a series of sequential pulls of a trigger, each pull affecting motion of a particular element.      In a preferred embodiment, three trigger pulls are sufficient to penetrate the site of implantation and deliver the anchor slidably along the needle. The instrument operates with replaceable subassemblies each containing a particular size cannulated anchor, having a longitudinally slidable needle for guiding the anchor into place and a longitudinally slidable push rod for pushing the anchor along the needle.

Inventor: COOK ROB A
IPC: B62D33/067
Filed: 2000-02-03
Abstract: A tilt mechanism for pivoting a vehicle body panel relative to a vehicle chassis includes a pivot pin having a pivot pin axis. The pivot pin provides a single- point pivot attachment of the body panel to the chassis such that the body panel can articulate about the pivot pin axis relative to the chassis. A support member pivotably connects to the chassis about the pivot pin axis by the pivot pin. The support member has a tilt axis along a longitudinal extent of the support member. The tilt axis is perpendicular to the pivot pin axis. The support member supports the vehicle body panel weight through a pivotal connection between a support member end and the body panel. The pivotal connection allows the body panel to pivot relative to the chassis about the tilt axis via a bearing. A torsion bar is within the support member. One portion of the torsion bar is secured to the support member and another portion is secured to the body panel by a slot that receives a torsion bar end. The torsion bar biases the body panel relative to the chassis along at least an angular portion of a pivotal range about the tilt axis. The slot is hour-glass-shaped such that the body panel can pivot about the tilt axis relative to the chassis without loading the torsion bar over a specified angular range about the tilt axis.

Patent CA-2300546-A1 (CA)
Inventor: DRABER SILKE
IPC: G05B23/02
Filed: 2000-03-07
Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for quantitative estimation of the reliability of a technical system, which is useful, in particular, for complex systems with a multiplicity of components.      First, second and third failure rates are distinguished for the system components. In accordance with the invention, an upper, lower and, if appropriate, mean value are in each case estimated for the largely unknown second failure rates by subjective expert opinion, and all upper, lower and, if appropriate, mean estimates are used separately to calculate an optimistic and pessimistic limiting probability distribution (2, 3) and, if appropriate, a mean probability distribution (1) of the system reliability.      Systematic correlations between expert estimates are thereby taken into account. For the first failure rates, mean values obtained from operational experience are determined With a confidence interval, and widened Poisson distributions are calculated. Furthermore, it is possible to add to the overall probability of the system reliability the Poisson distributions of third types of fault whose failure rates are known a priori or with a high statistical reliability. The method is suitable, in particular, for use in connection with FMEA ("Failure/Fault Modes and Effects Analysis") tables (4) and FMECA ("Failure/Fault Modes, Effects and Criticality Analysis") tables (4).
