Abstract: A blood pump (500) preferably has a magnetically suspended rotor (502) that rotates within a housing (506). The rotor (502) may rotate about a stator (504) disposed within the housing. Radial magnetic bearings (560) may be defined within a stator (504) and a rotor (502) in order to suspend the rotor (502). The radial magnetic bearings (560) may be passive magnetic bearings that include permanent magnets disposed within the stator and the rotor or active magnetic bearings. The pump (500) may further include an axial magnetic bearing (562) that may be either a passive or an active magnetic bearing. A  motor stator (508) that drives the rotor may be disposed within the housing in order to more easily dissipate heat generated by the motor stator (508). A  primary flow path (552) is defined between the stator (504) and the rotor (502), and a secondary flow path (552) is defined between the stator (504) and the rotor (502). Preferably, a substantial majority of blood passes through the primary flow path (550). The secondary flow path (552) is large enough so that it provides adequate flushing of the secondary flow path (552) while being small enough to permit efficient operation of the radial magnet bearings (560) across the secondary path (552).

Patent CA-2391835-A1 (CA)
Title: Double cone for generation of a pressure difference
Inventor: STARK JOHN HERMAN
IPC: B01D61/10
Filed: 1999-08-31
Abstract: The lifetime of a double-cone device (21) for creating a pressure difference in a streaming fluid can be greatly increased by moving the inlet gap (5) into the exit cone (4). This results in a short so-called diffuser (22) being obtained between the gap (5) and the orifice (19), where entry cone (3) and exit cone (4) are connected. The increased lifetime permits the double-cone device to cope with much higher flow rates. Thus higher system pressures are created which enhance the use of the double-cone for such applications as the desalination of sea water by reverse osmosis. The important application of the separation of oil from water using a separating device such as a cyclone (57) working under elevated pressure is now feasible. The increased power of the double-cone permits one to profit more fully from the new concept of reduction of the concentration of the feed supplied to the double-cone device (21).

Title: Communication protocol for interconnected hazardous condition detectors, and system employing same
Inventor: KLEINBERG CRAIG
IPC: G08B17/00
Filed: 2001-08-10
Abstract: Presented is a communications protocol for use by interconnected hazardous condition detectors, such as smoke (12, 14) and carbon monoxide (16, 18) detectors for use in dwellings and other structures. This communications protocol provides conventional signaling to indicate the presence of a smoke condition necessitating the generation of a smoke temporal pattern by all interconnected detectors. The protocol further defines a signaling method by which conventional smoke detectors (12) that are incapable of providing temporal patterns other than that required for a smoke alarm condition will not be sent into an alarm mode of operation upon receipt of a signal other than the conventional smoke alarm signal. Through the use of an 8 bit alarm signal, multiple hazardous conditions may be signaled as well as operating modes such as test, hush, reset, low battery, etc. Also presented are smoke, carbon monoxide, and combination hazardous condition detectors that utilize the communications protocol presented herein.
