Patent CA-2644480-A1 (CA)
Inventor: OYSTER CHRIS
IPC: B65B7/28
Filed: 2007-04-24
Abstract: The present invention provides a novel cam-actuated spindle assembly for selectively attaching a cam follower to a capping spindle. By adjusting the assembly, the user can easily adjust a capping spindle to follow a selected one of different tracks that are formed into a barrel cam. This simplifies the process of adjusting a bottle capping or corking machine to accommodate a variety of products with different types and sizes of closures and bottles. The mounting assembly weighs considerably less than a spindle or barrel cam, and therefore, is considerably easier to reposition and adjust. There is no need to remove the barrel cam or change out the spindle, which significantly reduces costs, down-time, and manpower requirements. The mounting assembly is designed to be compatible with existing bottle capping equipment.

Title: System and method for fast signal acquisition in a wireless digital receiver for wideband signals
Inventor: DIVAKARUNI SASIKALA
IPC: H04L7/00
Filed: 2007-07-30
Abstract: A receiver synchronization technique is described in this disclosure that significantly reduces the convergence time for synchronization further enabling specially modulated radio frequency carrier waves using the following steps: the characteristics of the baseband signal (Signal from RF) are used to detect the start of a received burst (Symbol Indicator Signal). Once the presence of a symbol is detected, the data acquisition subsystem (Data Acquisition and Preprocessing) is enabled to begin collecting samples (Data Samples). These samples are then transferred to the DSP (DSP). The DSP then searches for a preamble to precisely determine the timing delay to the start of the payload data.

Title: Eczema care strips
Inventor: KOCUPER DAWN D
IPC: A61F13/00
Filed: 2009-04-08
Abstract: Suffers of eczema are painfully aware of how difficult it is to protect and heal broken skin due to an eczema rash. Once affected skin has cracked, split or broken it is extremely painful to perform activities of daily living. For example, an individual with eczema on the palmar surface of their hands often suffer with painful cracked skin on their finger tips. Simple acts such as opening a door or putting on clothing can cause high levels of pain, further trauma to affected skin and delayed healing. This invention proposes to promote accelerated healing of eczema affected/traumatized skin by providing protection and nurturance simultaneously.

Patent CA-2674822-A1 (CA)
Inventor: YU CHONGXI
IPC: C07C215/40
Filed: 2007-01-15
Abstract: The novel positively charged pro-drugs of retinoids and retinoid-like compounds in the general formula (31) 'Structure 31' were designed and synthesized. The compounds of the general formula (31) 'Structure 31' indicated above can be prepared from retinoic acids and related compounds, by reaction with suitable alcohols, thiols, or amines and coupling reagents, such as N, N'-Dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, N,N'-Diisopropylcarbodiimide, O- (Benzotriazol-1-yl)-N,N,N',N'-tetramethyluronium tetrafluoroborate, O- (Benzotriazol-1-yl)-N,N,N',N'-tetramethyluronium hexafluorophosphate, Benzotriazol- 1-yl-oxy-tris(dimethylamino)phosphonium hexafluorophosphate, et al. The positively charged amino groups of these pro-drugs not only largely increases the solubility of the drugs in water, but also bonds to the negative charge on the phosphate head group of membranes. This bonding will disturb the membrane a little bit and may make some room for the lipophilic portion of the prodrug. When the molecules of membrane move, the membrane may 'crack' a little bit due to the bonding of the prodrug. This will let the prodrug insert into the membrane. At pH 7.4, only about 99% of amino group is protonated. When the amino group is not protonated, the bonding between the amino group of the prodrug and the phosphate head group of membrane will disassociate, and the prodrug will enter the membrane completely. When the amino group of the prodrug flips to the other side of the membrane and thus become protonated, then the prodrug is pulled into the cytosol, a semi-liquid concentrated aqueous solution or suspension. The results suggest that the pro-drugs diffuse through human skin -350 times faster than do retinoids and retinoid-like compounds. In plasma, more than 90% of these pro-drugs can change back to the parent drugs in a few minutes. The prodrugs can be used medicinally in treating any retinoids and retinoid-like compounds-treatable conditions in humans or animals. The prodrugs can be administered transdermally for any kind of medical treatments and avoid most of the side effects of retinoids and retinoid-like compounds. Controlled transdermal administration systems of the prodrug enables retinoids and retinoid-like compounds to reach constantly optimal therapeutic blood levels to increase effectiveness and reduce the side effects of retinoids and retinoid-like compounds. Another great benefit of transdermal administration of these pro-drugs is that administering medication, especially to children, will be much easier.
