Patent CA-2371307-C (CA)
Title: Systeme de commande de positionnement d'un mandrin dans une canalisation
Inventor: RAJAGOPALAN SHANKAR T
IPC: F16L55/48
Filed: 2000-04-26
Granted: 2007-10-02
Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un appareil servant à commander et à positionner automatiquement un mandrin (20) dans une canalisation (22) lors d'opérations de pliage. La détection de la position s'effectue à l'aide de la transmission d'un signal électromagnétique basse fréquence provenant d'une bobine (36) placée de façon parallèle à côté de la surface extérieure de la canalisation. Ce signal est détecté par une paire de bobines (42, 44) de réception orthogonales montées sur le mandrin, près de la surface intérieure de la canalisation. Les phases des signaux reçus par rapport au signal transmis et le coefficient des amplitudes des deux signaux reçus s'utilisent pour estimer la position relative de l'émetteur et des récepteurs. La commande du mandrin, ainsi que la transmission de données de phase de référence, s'effectuent par liaison radio à spectre étalé en séquence directe haute fréquence entre une console (40) d'ordinateur, située à l'extérieur de la canalisation montée sur la plieuse (32), et une unité (48) d'ordinateur, montée à l'intérieur de la canalisation située sur le mandrin.

Title: Use of 1,4-benzothiazepine derivatives as drugs for overcoming resistance to anticancer drugs
Inventor: NISHIO KAZUHITO
IPC: C07D417/06
Filed: 2000-05-19
Granted: 2009-01-20
Abstract: The present invention relates to use of compounds represented by the following general formula [1] or salts or prodrugs thereof: <see formula I> [where R1 represents hydrogen atom or lower alkoxy group; RZ represents hydrogen atom, lower alkoxy group, optionally substituted phenyl group, <see formula> (where R3 represents acyl group); X represents -CO- or -CH2-; and n-represents 1 or 2], as drugs for overcoming a resistance to anticancer drugs or drugs for enhancing an effect of anticancer drugs. The compounds represented by the general formula [1] have not only a function of overcoming the resistance to various anticancer drugs but also a function of enhancing the effect of various anticancer drugs to anticancer-drug sensitive cells. Thus, these compounds have excellent effects on resistant cells and also on sensitive cells, and in particular effective in the treatment of a cancer having an acquired resistance to an anticancer drug.

Title: System, apparatus, and method for underwater tagging of marine fauna
Inventor: GUDBJORNSSON SIGMAR
IPC: A01K11/00
Filed: 2000-05-11
Granted: 2008-01-15
Abstract: A system, apparatus, and method for underwater tagging of marine fauna involves emplacement of a tagging unit that can be used for example in a fishing trawl and establishment of communications with the unit through a cable wire that may be conventional. Numerous types of data can be recorded in relation to the tagging, including the ID o f the tagged animal, and two- and/or three-dimensional images of the animal, to be used at a later date when the tagged animal is recovere d. The method decreases tagging mortality and the biological effects of tagging on the animals, since they are not exposed to temperature and pressure changes, human handling and, at times, anesthesia. The embodiment makes it possible to tag deep-sea species that have never bee n tagged due to the fact that they would not survive the ambient changes of coming to the water's surface.

Abstract: A rail mounted slope traversing system is provided that accommodates varying angles of slope along the path of its movement, while maintaining a level transportation platform without the need of mechanical leveling devices or systems. As desired, the platform may be tilted for loading or unloading, as may be desired. The platform (2) may be connected to the rail (1) by means of wheels, the closest of which to the platform (2) is above the rail, and the other below the rail (1). Accordingly, the platform (2) is torqued downward to maintain contact between the wheels and the rail (1). As the slope of the terrain, and thus the rail (1), increases, the rail (1) is widened to maintain the platform (2) at level. As the slope decreases, the rail (1) is narrowed to the same effect.
