Patent CA-2556605-A1 (CA)
Title: Equalizer for a suspension system
Inventor: FENTON E DALE
IPC: B60G5/04
Filed: 2006-08-22
Abstract: An equalizer for a suspension system for a trailer is configured to absorb or dampen the harsh shocks or vibrations coming off of the leaf springs proximate to a center frame hangar, thus allowing for a "softer" ride. The equalizer utilizes one or two independent equalizer arm assemblies or castings which are each rotatably secured within the equalizer. Each equalizer arm assembly or casting is operatively associated with one of the leaf springs such that upon upward movement of the leaf spring, the associated equalizer arm assembly or casting is forced to rotate within the equalizer and to deform a shock absorber provided within the equalizer. The shock absorber, upon the deformation thereof, absorbs the harsh shocks or vibrations which would otherwise normally be transferred from the leaf springs, to the equalizer, and thus to the frame of the trailer.

Title: Valve with a pressurized hydraulic transmission device and a method of operating same
Inventor: CLAPA DAMIEN
IPC: F02M51/06
Filed: 2005-06-13
Abstract: A valve (100, 300, 600, 700) is disclosed with a hydraulic transmission device (130, 330, 630, 730) that is fluidly isolated from the process fluid. The pressure of the process fluid is employed to pressurize the hydraulic fluid. In a preferred embodiment, the valve is a common rail directly actuated fuel injection valve (100, 300, 600) with a hydraulic transmission device (130, 330, 630) that is fluidly isolated from the fuel so that the hydraulic fluid can be different from the fuel. This arrangement is particularly suitable for valves that inject a gaseous fuel, but can also be beneficial for use with liquid fuels. According to the method, the hydraulic fluid is pressurizable by the fuel pressure to reduce differential pressures and leakage, in addition to assisting with operation of the hydraulic transmission device (130, 330, 630). The method further comprises detecting the position of the valve needle (110, 310, 610, 710) for more accurate control of rate of fuel or process fluid flow through the valve (100, 300, 600, 700).

Title: Interspinous spacer
Inventor: TRIEU HAI H
IPC: A61F2/00
Filed: 2005-05-04
Abstract: A spacer for maintaining separation between adjacent spinous processes has a collapsed and an expanded configuration. The collapsed configuration presents a smaller profile to facilitate minimally invasive implantation of the spacer.  An exemplary interspinous spacer (10) includes a blocking member 15 and arms 11, 12, 13 and 14. When the spacer is in its relaxed (expaded) configuration it resembles an "H", with arms 11, 12 , 13 and 14 being the legs of the H, and blocking member 15 being the crossbar. To use the spacer, the arms are manipulated to be parallel to the blocking member, manipulating the spacer to its collapsed (implantable) configuration. The manipulation makes the spacer assume the shape of an "I" rather than the shape of an "H" .

Inventor: CALISKAN ARI GARO
IPC: B62D25/08
Filed: 2006-12-04
Abstract: A lower frame midrail structure for an automotive vehicle is formed from a pair of tubular members manufactured through a hydroforming process. The two tubular members are welded together in a longitudinally extending portion to provide support for the mounting structure of a bumper assembly. The joinder of the two tubular members creates a lower frame midrail cross-section that has a generally vertical internal web to strengthen and stiffen the midrail structure. The two tubular members laterally diverge from one another in a divergent zone in which the laterally spaced tubular members provide a stable interior and exterior support for a shock tower support member to be welded to the top of the tubular members. The hydroforming process can form openings in the sidewalls of the tubular members to permit passage of cross frame members to enhance the welding of the cross frame members to the midrail structure.
