Patent CA-2694160-A1 (CA)
Inventor: FRANTZ DONALD R
IPC: F16B41/00
Filed: 2007-10-23
Abstract: A universal electronics lock (10) has an inner cylinder (20) and an outer cylinder (40). The outer cylinder (40) slidingly fits over the inner cylinder (20). The outer cylinder (40) is equipped with a lock cylinder (62) that has an axially-movable latch (64). When the latch (64) is in one position, it clears an inwardly-directed ridge (27) defined within the inner cylinder (20). The lock (10) is then in the "unlocked" position. When the latch (64) is in a second position when rotated by a turning of a key (67), the latch (64) is disposed behind a portion of the ridge (27) and the lock (10) is in the "locked" position. The universal electronics lock (10) of the present invention allows rotation about a fastener (12), thus making the lock (10) difficult to cut or saw through.

IPC: B05B3/00
Filed: 2010-03-09
Abstract: The present invention relates to an articulated nozzle system comprising a nozzle cap for directing water exiting the nozzle cap, wherein the water exiting the nozzle cap has an average flow direction away from a nozzle cap base plane. The articulated nozzle system further comprises a nozzle cap driver for orienting the nozzle cap about a central pivot point to adjustably define the average flow direction, wherein the nozzle cap driver is linked to the nozzle cap. The nozzle cap driver can be moved along a plane, referred to as a driver support plane, by a drive module. Changing the location of nozzle cap driver along the driver support plane can change the orientation of the nozzle cap about the central pivot to adjust the average flow direction of the water exiting the nozzle cap.

Title: Device and method for opening blood vessels by pre-angioplasty serration and dilatation of atherosclerotic plaque
Inventor: SCHNEIDER PETER A
IPC: A61M29/02
Filed: 2009-03-20
Abstract: A device and method for intravascular treatment of atherosclerotic plaque perforates the plaque with microperforations by small sharp spikes to act as serrations for forming cleavage lines or planes in the plaque. In preferred embodiments, expansion may be obtained by mechanical apparatus, expansion balloon, or balloon-assisted deployment. The plaque treatment enables a subsequent balloon angioplasty to be performed without creating substantial dissections and at low balloon pressure so as to avoid injury to the arterial wall. The plaque treatment may include dilatation of the plaque at low pressure, sufficiently that no subsequent balloon angioplasty is needed. The plaque preparation may be followed by applying one or a few ring tacks to secure the compressed plaque with minimal emplacement of foreign material.

Abstract: Splicing optical fibers from cables running along an infrastructure involves passing the cables into a housing (80) having space to contain a fiber splice (100) and contain an additional length of slack fiber extending around a bend of at least 180 degrees, or a number of coils, in a substantially annular plane. After splicing, the fiber splice and slack fiber are placed in the housing, which is sealed to resist pressures of at least 200 psi, and the assembly is fixed to the infrastructure. The space in the housing can enable the housing to be used for protecting U-bends or to provide some slack fiber within the housing. This can enable faster onsite splicing operations or allow for rework without needing to relocate and strip more cable, to save costs. The housing can be suitable for fitting in the annular space between production tube and casing for use in sensing down boreholes.
