Patent CA-2435118-A1 (CA)
Inventor: DARCEY THOMAS D
IPC: A61F5/02
Filed: 2002-02-04
Abstract: A custom-moldable patellar support product for improved patella tracking in the femoral groove and relief of associated patella femoral pain syndrome, and including an outer container formed of moisture-impervious material and an initially-moldable, patellar support positioned in the container in substantially moisture-free conditions and sealed therein against entry of moisture until use. The support includes a substrate (17) and a reactive system impregnated into or coated onto the substrate (17). The system remains stable when maintained in substantially moisture-free conditions and hardens upon exposure to moisture to form a rigid, self supporting structure. A  flexible protective pad (18) is positioned on one side of the substrate (17) along its length to provide a cushioning barrier between the substrate (17) and the skin of a patient when the patella support is in use. An outer cover (19) covers the substrate (17) on the side opposite the protective pad (18).  The substrate (17), protective pad (18) and outer cover (19) are connected together into a unitary structure for being urged against the knee and into a position whereby the patella is repositioned into a therapeutic location relative to the femur for improved tracking in the femoral groove, and molded while flexible to the knee with the patella in the repositioned location.

Patent CA-2445847-A1 (CA)
Inventor: FITZGERALD DAVID JAMES
IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 2002-05-02
Abstract: The present invention relates generally to a molecular marker of the integrity of the extracellular matrix in an animal including a human subject. More particularly, the present invention provides a molecular marker of cartilage integrity. The identification of the molecular marker in circulatory or tissue fluid is indicative of disrepair of the extracellular matrix and in particular cartilage such as caused or facilitated by trauma or a degenerative disease or other condition, for example, arthritis or autoimmunity. The molecular marker is preferably in the form of a glycoprotein but the instant invention extends to genetic sequences encoding the polypeptide portion of the glycoprotein.  Expression analysis of such genetic sequences provides predictive utility in detecting normal or abnormal extracellular matrix development. The identification of the molecular marker of the present invention enables the development of a range of diagnostic and therapeutic agents for degeneration of extracellular matrix or the poor development of the matrix at the fetal and postnatal stages including testing for mutations in the gene sequence in human disease such as but not limited to cartilage disease or arthritis.. In a most preferred embodiment, the molecular marker is referred to herein as "WARP" for von Willebrand Factor A-Related Protein. The corresponding genetic form of WARP is referred to herein as "WARP".

Patent CA-2447809-A1 (CA)
Title: An inertial/gps navigation system
Inventor: WILLIAMSON IAN
IPC: G01S5/14
Filed: 2002-06-04
Abstract: A receiver that uses a single processor to control a GPS sub-system and an inertial ("INS") sub-system and, through software integration, shares GPS an d INS position and covariance information between the sub-systems. The receive r time tags the INS measurement data using a counter that is slaved to GPS tim e, and the receiver then uses separate INS and GPS filters to produce GPS and I NS position information that is synchronized in time. The GPS/INS receiver utilizes GPS position and associated covariance information in the updating of an INS Kalman filter, which provides updated system error information that i s used in propagating inertial position, velocity and attitude. Whenever the receiver is stationary after initial movement, the INS sub-system performs "zero-velocity updates", to more accurately compensate in the Kalman filter for component measurement biases and measurement noise. Further, if the receiver loses GPS satellite signals, the receiver utilizes the inertial position, velocity and covariance information provided by the Kalman filter in the GPS filters, to speed up GPS satellite signal re-acquisition and associated ambiguity resolution operations.

Title: Knot relieving twine tensioner for baler
Inventor: ROTOLE DAVID VINCENT
IPC: A01F15/14
Filed: 2004-01-14
Abstract: A twine tensioner includes upper and lower ribbed rollers biased together so as to engage a length of twine passing between them so as to cause a predetermined tension to be required for advancing the length of twine through the rollers. The upper roller is mounted for movement relative to the lower roller and is guided such that, as it moves away from the lower roller, the twine tension first increases and then does not undergo any appreciable increase or spike as a knot in the length of twine passes through the nip of the rollers. The tensioner is constructed such that the upper roller may be easily manually moved away from the lower roller so as to permit twine to be threaded through the tensioner without requiring any additional tool.
