Title: Bubble cap assembly
Inventor: BOLEBRUCH JEFFREY J
IPC: F23C10/00
Filed: 2004-05-28
Abstract: A bubble cap assembly for use in fluidized bed boilers, furnaces, or reactors, has a bubble cap, a stem, and at least one pin. One end of the stem is inserted into the bubble cap. The bubble cap has outlet holes for delivering a fluidizing medium, typically into a bed of granulated material, but which prevent backsifting of the granulated material into the bubble cap.

Title: Method of making sensor electrodes
Inventor: WILSEY CHRISTOPHER D
IPC: G01N27/403
Filed: 1995-02-21
Abstract: A method for fabricating high-resolution, biocompatible electrodes is disclosed, allowing production of an electrochemical sensor which is capable of precise analyte concentration determination on a very small sample size. Electrically conducting material is affixed to a first insulating substrate. A second insulating substrate is then affixed to the electrically conducting material and patterned using photolithography to define an electrode area. Alternatively, the electrically conducting material may be screen printed directly onto a standard printed circuit board substrate in the case of a counter or reference electrode. In either case, the substrate may be rigid or flexible. When the electrodes produced in accordance with the present invention are then used in an electrochemical sensor which includes a reagent, the small and highly-defined electrode areas permit highly-accurate electrochemical analyte measurements to be performed on very small sample sizes.

Title: Agent for treatment of pemphigoid
Inventor: NAKAMA TAKEKUNI
IPC: A61P17/00
Filed: 2003-12-26
Abstract: It is intended to provide a remedy for pemphigoid. To use as a remedy for pemphigoid, IFN-.gamma. is administered by intravenous drip in a daily dose of 2,000,000 JRU for 7 days. Depending on the conditions, side effects and age, the administration dose may be altered or the intravenous drip may be carried out once several days. It appears that IFN-.gamma. is efficacious against pemphigoid because of showing a quick action thereon with little side effect.  Concerning the function mechanism, it is assumed that IFN-.gamma. inhibits the migration and function of eosinophils seemingly participating directly in the onset of pemphigoid.

Patent CA-2512710-A1 (CA)
Inventor: REEPSCHLAGER PAUL MARK
IPC: H04B10/02
Filed: 2005-07-20
Abstract: An optical network including multiple nodes is subject to intermittent faults that may raise alarms in the system. The invention focuses on an optical network based on the Any rate architecture. A single fault such as a client failure at a node in such a network can give rise to a loss of client signal leading to multiple alarms detected at multiple points. To alleviate this problem this invention provides switching in a special Signature signal in place of the lost client signal. By detecting the Signature signal containing a specific code, the fault on the any rate-based architecture can be uniquely identified. In addition to fault identification, the Signature signal on the network makes it possible to maintain Clock and Data Recovery Locks at downstream nodes. The Signature signal serves also as a vehicle for carrying a special optical tag called Wavekey provided by the Wavelength Tracker technology developed by the Applicant. This optical tag includes a low frequency modulation of one or more dither tones onto an optical channel, which is uniquely identified by the tag. Maintaining the Wavekey is important for tracing the end-to-end path and power level of the signal on each wavelength. A method and a Field Programmable Gate Array-based system for the generation and identification of such a Signature signal that not only identifies the fault that has occurred on the optical network but also provides for the maintenance of the Wavekey, are described.

Title: Method of designing automotive seat assemblies for rear impact performance
Inventor: FURTADO ROLAND
IPC: G06F17/50
Filed: 2004-02-03
Abstract: A method for designing automobile seat assemblies in which a sled test is run on a prototype seat assembly in order to obtain the necessary data to model the seat assembly with simulation software. A basic model of the surface of the seat assembly is built utilizing simulation software and tests are run on various parameters to determine those that are most significant to the desired objective of the design process. Thereafter, the software is used to build a detailed model of the seat assembly and all its elements and the significant parameters are tested further to determine those that are again most significant to achieving the desired outcome. Once optimization ranges for those most significant parameters are chosen, the prototype seat assembly is modified accordingly. A final sled test is run on the modified prototype to verify the results and compare those results with the original sled test results.
