Title: Lzw data compression apparatus and method using look-ahead mathematical run processing
Inventor: COOPER ALBERT B
IPC: H03M7/30
Filed: 2000-08-11
Abstract: The disclosed data compressor compresses an input stream of data characters using LZW data compression. When the occurence of a run of input data characters is detected, the run is processed by successively looking ahead into the input to determine the contiguous numerically increasing segments that exist in the run and by utilizing codes from the compressor code counter to correspond to the contiguous numerically increasing run segments.  Alternatively, the detected run is processed by determining the length of the run and mathematically determining, from the length of the run, the respective codes from the code counter corresponding to the contiguous numerically increasing segments that exist in the run. Specifically, an iterative mathematical algorithm or a quadratic equation algorithm are utilized to process the run.

Title: Package printing system with rfid write/read capability
Inventor: MONICO DOMINICK L
IPC: B65B61/26
Filed: 2000-09-28
Abstract: A passive RFID tag (22) is provided in a product (21), and then the product is packaged. Rather than printing a high-quality label that must be optically scanned, and applying the label on the package, shipping and tracking data are encoded in the RFID tag. Then the only thing that needs to be applied to the package is human readable address information (27), which may be imaged directly on the package, such as by an ink jet printer. The final package need have no label at all, let alone one with shipping and tracking information.

Title: Multifunctional curved blade for use with an ultrasonic surgical instrument
Inventor: MESSERLY JEFFREY D
IPC: A61B17/32
Filed: 2000-09-08
Abstract: The present invention relates, in general, to ultrasonic surgical clamping instruments and, more particularly, to a multi-functional curved shears blade for an ultrasonic surgical clamping instrument (120). Disclosed is an ultrasonic surgical instrument that combines end effector geometry to best affect the multiple functions of a shears type configuration. The shape of the blade is characterized by a radius cut to form a curved, and potentially tapered geometry. This cut creates a curved surface including a concave surface (53), and a convex surface (57). The convex surface transitions into a short, straight, flat surface. The length of this straight portion affects, in part, the acoustic balancing of the transverse motion induced by the curved shape. Relative to straight blade tips, the tip curvature of the present design provides improved visibility of the transection site and improved access to targeted tissues.

Filed: 2001-03-26
Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé, un système de traitement de données et un logiciel pour le traitement de messages de commande élaborés conformément à un premier protocole de communications destiné à être utilisé dans un réseau de communication. Chaque message de commande comporte un premier identificateur d'adresse ayant un format défini par le premier protocole. Ce procédé consiste à traiter ce message de commande afin de dériver un second identificateur d'adresse issu du premier identificateur, ce second identificateur ayant un format défini par le second protocole de communication; puis à reformatter ce message de commande afin de le transmettre, conformément au second protocole, à un système de réseau associé avec le second identificateur d'adresse. Le premier protocole de communications peut être un protocole d'initiation de session (SIP) et le second protocole de communication un protocole de transfert de courrier (SMTP). Grâce à l'invention, les messages peuvent être facilement traités et déviés d'un identificateur d'adresse URL à destination définie par SIP sur un identificateur d'adresse URL correspondant, à destination définie par SMTP pour le même utilisateur ou système d'extrémité. De cette façon, les utilisateurs peuvent envoyer des messages SIP à des identificateurs d'adresse SMTP au moyen du protocole de réseau et de l'infrastructure SMTP (416) et des messages SMTP à des identificateurs d'adresse SIP au moyen du protocole de réseau et de l'infrastructure SIP (408, 410, 412).

Title: Improved easy-open end and method of making
Inventor: ZYSSET EDGAR
IPC: B21D51/38
Filed: 2001-03-23
Abstract: A method of making and easy-open end for a container includes steps of forming first (20) and second (22) grooves in a panel (42) of a can end blank (40), the grooves extending below the level of the panel to form inner (21) and outer (23) beads and forming a central bead (24) in the panel between the first and second grooves so that the central bead extends above the panel. A  score (28) is then formed along the central bead by simultaneously forming the score and compressing the central bead, so that the depth (Tc) of the score and the thickness (Tp) of the central bead are both positively controlled. The inner and outer beads are then forced toward each other and then toward the panel, and the central bead is forced toward the panel. A pull tab (34) is then fixed to the end. This process permits the score residual (Tr) to be controlled to a greater tolerance than the conventional processes, and is also more material efficient.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a shieldable blood collection set as well as a needle assembly for use therein. The needle assembly includes a needle cannula having a puncture tip at a distal end thereof and a hub which supports the needle cannula. A hollow outer shield co-axially surrounds a distal end of the hub and has an inner surface which is in cooperating engagement with an outer surface of the hub. The hub includes a first tab extending outwardly at a position which is exposed from the outer shield, and the outer shield includes a second tab. The first tab and the second tab are configured such that opposing forces applied against the tabs cause the outer shield to move from a retracted position in which the puncture tip of the needle cannula is exposed, to an extended position in which the outer shield covers the puncture tip.
