Patent CA-2882053-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BURMASTER BRIAN
IPC: C08J7/14
Filed: 2013-08-14
Abstract: A method for oxidizing polymeric surfaces to render them hydrophilic and more amenable to wetting is disclosed. The method comprises reacting the surface of a hydrophobic polymer with a peracid, especially Caro's acid, under conditions effective to render the surface more hydrophilic. Although strong oxidants can easily carbonize or discolor the surface of organic polymers, polymers can be rendered more hydrophilic without these problems when process conditions are carefully controlled. Specifically, treatment of the polymer surface with a peracid such as Caro's acid requires judicious selection of oxidation temperature, acid concentration, and peroxide content to achieve reaction rates that provide the desired level of hydrophilicity without charring or otherwise damaging the polymer.

Patent CA-2886387-A1 (CA)
Title: Slip configuration for downhole tool
Inventor: GOODMAN BRANDON C
IPC: E21B33/134
Filed: 2015-03-25
Abstract: A downhole tool or plug is used for sealing in tubing. A mandrel of the tool has a first shoulder disposed toward a downhole end of the mandrel. A sealing element for sealing in the tubing is disposed on the mandrel adjacent the first shoulder, a slip is disposed on the mandrel adjacent the sealing element, and a cone is disposed on the mandrel adjacent the slip. In setting the tool, the cone moves toward the first shoulder, wedges the slip against the tubing, and compresses the sealing element between the slip and the first shoulder. Force applied against a seated plug in the mandrel transfers through the mandrel to the cone and slip without passing through the sealing element, which avoids detrimental effects.

Title: Light switch cover plate / electrical plug cover night light
Inventor: PAPACONSTANTINOU CONSTANTINOS
IPC: F21V33/00
Filed: 2015-05-04
Abstract: This new invention can be installed in any room. It makes living space easier and more convenient. The Light Switch Cover Plate / Electrical Plug Cover Night Lights invention will allow individuals to better control their AC power plugs, sockets, and appliances. At the same time it acts as a safety night light system or light. The system is easy to install. It is as simple to use as a home light switch, and offers the owner a variety of ways to use the AC power plugs and sockets. A specific wireless mobile application helps program the wireless modules and sets specific functionality states for the electrical components. This mobile application also allows the user to control his devices wirelessly from a distance. One very good example of using the Light Switch Cover Plate / Electrical Plug Cover Night Lights is in an area, or room with multiple table lamps, hanging lamps, and pluggable lamps. Instead of turning these lights on manually one by one, or plugging them in one by one every time you enter a room. The user can simply plug them in to Electrical Plug Cover Night Lights and turn them all on with one flick of the Light Switch Cover Plate. These two devices are preprogramed to function in a specific way, but with the help of our specific wireless mobile application the states of the Light Switch Cover Plate / Electrical Plug Cover Night Light can be adjusted to fit the individuals need. A good example of this would be the colors of the LEDs, setting the night lights to only function during specific hours, setting the Voltage control to only function during specific hours, diming the LEDs, reducing the maximum power, adding light effects such as blinking, and a variety of starting delays for the users pleasure.
