Patent CA-2451787-C (CA)
Title: Appareil d'ajustage et procede de couplage d'un ensemble membrane/electrode, appareil de transport associe
Inventor: OHSUGI AKIHIRO
IPC: H01M8/24
Filed: 2002-06-28
Granted: 2010-02-02
Abstract: La présente invention concerne un appareil (10) d'ajustage d'un ensemble membrane/électrode qui comprend un outil d'ajustage inférieur (14) servant à retenir un ensemble (65) membrane/électrode, un outil d'ajustage supérieur (16) équipé d'une lame d'ajustage (15) et un élément (17) de support suspendu de manière à élever une électrode en carbone (12) dans l'outil d'ajustage supérieur et le mandrin.

Title: Antigenes mycobacteriens exprimes pendant la latence
Inventor: JAMES BRIAN WILLIAM
IPC: G01N33/50
Filed: 2002-07-04
Granted: 2013-12-10
Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé permettant d'identifier des gènes mycobactériens qui sont induits ou activés dans des conditions de culture caractérisés par un sous-apport d'éléments nutritifs, et qui permettent de préserver la latence mycobactérienne, ces conditions étant obtenues par une fermentation discontinue d'une mycobactérie pendant au moins 20 jours après l'inoculation, à la différence des conditions de cultures ne comprenant pas de sous-nutrition et qui produisent une multiplication exponentielle de ladite mycobactérie. Lesdits gènes induits ou activés constituent la base de vaccins d'acide nucléique, ou peuvent fournir des cibles pour la préparation de mycobactéries atténuées destinées à des vaccins contre les infections mycobactériennes. De manière similaire, les peptides codés par ces gènes induits ou activés sont utilisés dans des vaccins. Dans un mode de réalisation différent, les gènes/peptides permettent l'identification de la présence d'une infection mycobactérienne dans un échantillon clinique, au moyen d'une sonde d'acide nucléique ou de la détection d'anticorps.

Title: Bande contenant un metal traitee dans un procede de gravure en continu
Inventor: LAI LAURENCE M C
IPC: B32B15/00
Filed: 2002-09-18
Granted: 2008-03-18
Abstract: Dans un procédé de gravure en continu, on réduit l'altération de caractéristiques formées par la gravure d'une bande contenant un métal en déformant le(s) motif(s) original/aux de ces caractéristiques afin de compenser la gravure excessive de zones locales pendant le procédé de gravure en continu. Dans le cas d'une membrane plane de haut-parleur, par exemple, la largeur des parties de la trace qui sont perpendiculaires au sens de la fabrication est accrue afin de compenser le taux de gravure supérieur dû au passage dans le bain de gravure. Bien que le motif de la trace modifiée paraisse déformé par rapport au motif trace original, la trace gravée résultant du motif de trace modifié présente une uniformité accrue et une fidélité supérieure au motif trace original utilisé dans le procédé de gravure en continu.

Title: Adjustable adapter for gravity-feed paint sprayer
Inventor: TOCZYCKI JAN
IPC: B05B7/30
Filed: 2004-05-11
Granted: 2009-07-14
Abstract: An adjustable adapter includes two arms, each having an axis, a surface substantially normal to the axis, wherein the surfaces of the arms face each other, an end and a passageway for fluid communication between the end and the opening, wherein one of the arm ends is for connection to an inlet of an applicator and the other arm end is for connection to an outlet of a container, and a fastener for pivotally coupling the arms. One of the arm surfaces is provided with a groove in fluid communication with both arm openings. The groove is sealed to prevent fluid from leaking from between the surfaces. When the fastener is in a rotation-resisting mode, the fastener forces the surfaces of the arm toward one another sufficiently to increase friction and resist rotation therebetween, and when the fastener is in a rotation-permitting mode, the fastener releases the surfaces sufficiently to decrease friction and permit rotation therebetween.
