Patent CA-2532404-C (CA)
Inventor: GOMES FRANCIS
IPC: C01B32/55
Filed: 2006-01-09
Granted: 2014-03-18
Abstract: A device for producing a solidified block of carbon dioxide includes first and second housing portions removably connectable together. The first and second housing portions form an interior molding chamber that is adapted to receive liquid carbon dioxide at a pressure where expansion of the liquid carbon dioxide occurs, resulting in a mixture of solidified and gaseous carbon dioxide. A pressure relief device includes a biasing member for biasing the first and second housing portions together. The biasing member permits relative movement between the first and second housing portions when internal pressure from the gaseous carbon dioxide exceeds a predetermined amount. With this arrangement, relative movement between first and second housing portions causes gaseous carbon dioxide to be released from the interior molding chamber to thereby reduce the internal pressure.
Patent CA-2540902-C (CA)
Inventor: WALES KENNETH S
IPC: A61B17/00
Filed: 2006-03-23
Granted: 2014-06-03
Abstract: A surgical stapling and severing instrument particularly suited to endoscopic use includes a proximal portion that is manipulated external to a patient to position an attached elongate shaft and end effector to a desired surgical site inside of the patient. An articulation joint pivotally attaches the end effector to the elongate shaft to give further clinical flexibility in reaching tissue at a desired angle. A closure tube assembly includes a single pivoting portion that overrides the articulation joint in order to distally translate to the end effector to close, yet pass over an articulated shaft by having a multiple pivot frame ground encompassed therein to accommodate the longitudinal change in closure sleeve pivot. Thereby, additional clinical flexibility in positioning the end effector is achieved without losing the ability for separate closure and firing motions transferred by the shaft.

Abstract: The invention relates to a damping device with power-assisted deceleration, which is intended to be used in the field of hydraulic shock dampers. The invention includes a sealed body filled with a hydraulic fluid and a piston mounted in the sealed body. The piston is connected to a rod axially movable outside the body. The rod and the body are arranged such that, while one is solidly connected to a support, an impact in relation to the other causes axial movement of the piston and compression of the fluid in a chamber. The invention also includes a flow mechanism for the hydraulic fluid to be released from the chamber and an element which can move axially inside the body to form a check valve that can seal the flow mechanism when pushed back in the opposite direction to that of the impact by an elastic device.

Granted: 2013-05-07
Abstract: Patients susceptible to or suffering from conditions and disorders, such as central nervous system disorders, are treated by administering to a patient in need thereof compositions that are hydroxybenzoate salts of E-metanicotine-type compounds. The formation of hydroxybenzoate salts of the E-metanicotine compounds is also useful in purifying the E-metanicotine compounds, as the hydroxybenzoate salts tend to crystallize out, leaving impurities such as Z-metanicotine compounds, and compounds where the double bond has migrated, in solution. If desired, the hydroxybenzoate salts can be converted to either the free base (the E-metanicotine) or to another pharmaceutically acceptable salt form.

Abstract: A system for enhancing network-browsing speed by setting a proxy server on a handheld device comprises a browser operating on the handheld for sending a request for requesting a message including at least one image from a website, receiving a response in response to the request, a proxy server including a cache for processing the request and the response and caching the image included in the response, a wireless network communicably linked to the proxy server, Mobile Data Service (MDS) gateway communicably linked to the proxy server for transcoding and decompressing the request, and transcoding and compressing the response including the requested message from the website.MDS gateway further processes a redirect response and request and fetches the requested message from another address. The proxy server sends a notification to the browser with respect to the redirect occurred in the MDS gateway and receives a request for requesting the requested message from the browser, and the proxy server sends the requested message to the browser. The redirect happens within the handheld device and does not happen wirelessly. The proxy caches images for browser to request to reduce the image transmission wirelessly.
