Patent CA-2571854-A1 (CA)
Title: System and method to bioengineer facial form in adults
Inventor: SINGH GURDEV DAVE
IPC: A61C3/00
Filed: 2005-05-19
Abstract: A method and apparatus are provided for changing the form of the jaw and facial bones of an adult patient that did not develop fully during childhood.  The method utilizes a device having a plate body with an expansion screw that fits within the mouth of the patient; flap springs that project from the plate body, and an overlay extending from the plate body. The device is place within the mouth of the patient so that the overlay is in a position between at least two opposing teeth. In this position, opposing teeth contact the overlay during function (e.g. swallowing). This intermittent, unilateral application of force to the facial bones causes these bones to further develop, positioning out of place teeth into more proper positions, and inducing a more symmetrical and enhanced appearance of the face, as well as increasing the airway space behind the jaws. Conconmitantly, the flap springs gently press against selected teeth that are out of alignment in order to guide those teeth into place. Simultaneously, the expansion device maintains these forces on the teeth, while assisting the jawbones to expand to accept the teeth in their proper position. The expansion device can be adjusted by small motors under the control of microprocessor located on the body plate based on readings from the sensors on the flap springs. The expansion device can be adjusted by remote signaling, using a global position satellite technology and global position coordinates.
Patent CA-2573175-A1 (CA)
Title: Method and installation for processing printed products during conveyance
Inventor: MUELLER ERWIN
IPC: B65H5/32
Filed: 2007-01-05
Abstract: Printed products produced by assembling on saddle-shaped supports (1) are conveyed onwards lying on the supports (1) and during this conveyance are processed in the area of their fold line between a tool acting from outside (3) and a counter-tool (2) acting from inside, i.e., from the supported side. For being processed, the printed products are lifted off from the saddle line (1.1) of the supports (1) by the counter-tools (2), such that a relative movement between the saddle-shaped support (1) and the counter-tool (2) does not deform or damage the printed products. Through this measure it becomes possible to design the circuit of the supports (1) and the circuit of the counter-tools (2) largely independent of one another.  The supports (1) or their saddle lines (1.1) respectively, for example, are able to move through the processing zone (B) in a straight line, while the distal ends (2.1) of the counter tools (2) circulate on a round circuit.
