Title: Mixing valve with graduated temperature modulation
Inventor: DEMPSEY JAMES F
IPC: F16K11/00
Filed: 2002-04-03
Granted: 2010-06-15
Abstract: A valve assembly for mixing hot and cold water includes a generally cylindrical sleeve having hot and cold inlets and outlets and a rotable non-reciprocal valve member positioned therein to control the mixture of hot and cold water in the outlet stream. The valve member has a hollow stem tube having hot and cold inlet and outlet ports which are rotably engageable with the hot and cold inlets and outlets of the sleeve. The stem tube hot water inlet port has at least one tapered portion with is engageable with a tapered portion of the sleeve to provide a larger range of mixed range temperatures in the resulting outlet stream. Sleeve ribs, rims and raised edges provide a smoother fluid passageway for increased flow and for the eliminating of stacking.

Patent CA-2386052-C (CA)
Title: Ultrasonic medical device operating in a transverse mode
Inventor: FISCHER DAVID M
IPC: A61B17/28
Filed: 2000-09-29
Granted: 2009-08-18
Abstract: An ultrasonic medical device comprises an ultrasonic vibration generator (14 ) that generates vibration along its longitudinal axis. The ultrasonic vibration is transmitted through an ultrasonic coupler and a series of transformer sections (18, 20) that amplify the ultrasonic vibration. A flexible member (22) is coupled to the distal end of the transformer sections, and is thus supplied with a longitudinal vibration at its base by the transformer sections. The flexible member is designed so that it converts the longitudinal vibration into a standing wave that runs along the length of th e flexible member. The standing wave produces a series of nodes and anti-nodes along the length of the flexible member. Each of the anti-nodes produces cavitation in fluids in contact with the probe. The cavitation of the fluids causes destruction of adjacent tissu e. In this manner, the entire length of the flexible member becomes a working surface that may be utilized for destroying tissue.</SDOAB >

Title: Printing process and printing machine for same
Inventor: LEHMANN UDO
IPC: B41J2/47
Filed: 2001-03-28
Granted: 2010-02-16
Abstract: The present invention relates to a printing process for the transfer of printing substance from an ink carrier onto an imprinting material, in which the printing substance undergoes a change in volume and/or position by means of an induced procedure of energy-releasing apparatus, and thereby a transfer of a printing point onto the imprinting material takes place. In order to provide a printing process and a printing machine which can be operated with very little energy, permit an easy refilling of the printing substance and additionally overcome the above-mentioned disadvantages, it is proposed according to the invention that the printing substance is applied essentially forming a continuous film on the ink carrier.

Patent CA-2417242-C (CA)
Inventor: HAIM JOHN W
IPC: H04B1/707
Filed: 2001-07-12
Granted: 2007-03-20
Abstract: A system and a method of controlling transmitter power in a wireless communication system in which user data is processed as a multirate signal having a rate N(t) and in which the user data signal having rate N(t) for transmission. The transmission power is adjusted on a relatively slow basis based on quality of data received by a receiver of the transmitted data. The transmitter power is determined as a function of N(t)/M(t) such that a change in the data rate in the multiple channels or the rate of the transmission data signal is compensated in advance of a quality of data based adjustment associated with such data rate change. Preferably, the user data signal having rate N(t) is converted into the transmission data signal having the faster rate M(t) by repeating selected data bits whereby the energy per bit to noise spectrum density ratio is increased in the transmission data signal.

Patent CA-2426952-C (CA)
Title: Small molecule compositions for binding to hsp90
Inventor: CHIOSIS GABRIELA
IPC: A61K31/428
Filed: 2001-11-01
Granted: 2012-06-26
Abstract: Structural differences in binding pockets of members of the HSP90 family can be exploited to achieve differential degradation of kinases and other signaling proteins through the use of designed small molecules which interact with the N-terminal binding pocket with an affinity which is greater than ADP  and different from the ansamycin antibiotics for at least one species of the HSP90 family.Moreover, these small molecules can be designed to be soluble in aqueous media, thus providing a further advantage over the use of ansamycin antibiotics. Pharmaceutical compositions can be formulated containing a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and a molecule that includes a binding moiety which binds to the N-terminal pocket of at least one member of the HSP90 family of proteins. Such binding moieties were found to have antiproliferative activity against tumor cells which are dependent on proteins requiring chaperones of the HSP90 family for their function. Different chemical species have different activity, however, allowing the selection of, for example Her2 degradation without degradation of Raf kinase. Thus, the binding moieties possess an inherent targeting capacity. In addition, the small molecules can be linked to targeting moieties to provide targeting of the activity to specific classes of cells. Thus, the invention further provides a method for treatment of diseases, including cancers, by administration of these compositions. Dimeric forms of the binding moieties may also be employed.
