Title: Light generating device to intravascular use
Inventor: BISHOP JEAN
IPC: A61N5/06
Filed: 2004-03-12
Abstract: Light generating devices for illuminating portions of vascular tissue, to render photodynamic therapy. In one embodiment, a light source array preferably including a plurality of light emitting diodes, a focusing lens, and a light diffusing element are included in a distal end of a catheter. A  balloon is optionally provided to interrupt blood flow that can block the transmission of light, and to center the apparatus in a blood vessel. Optical fibers optionally direct light from the light source to the diffusing element.  The light source array can have a radial or linear configuration and can produce more than one wavelength of light for activating different photoreactive agents. Linear light source elements are particularly useful to treat elongate portions of tissue in a vessel. One embodiment intended for use with a conventional balloon catheter integrates light sources into a guidewire.

Title: Method for resampling at transmission and reception of a digital signal with digital band translation
Inventor: BLASCO CLARET JORGE VICENTE
IPC: H03M1/66
Filed: 2004-05-31
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for resampling at transmission and reception of a digital signal with digital band translation. According to the invention, a resampling (25) is performed upon reception of a bandpass signal, whereby the signal is translated (4) to baseband with a configurable frequency and the resulting baseband signal is introduced into a decimator (5). In addition, a resampling (26) is performed upon transmission, whereby the baseband signal is interpolated (10) and, subsequently, translated to bandpass (20) with a configurable frequency. The inventive method can be used to correct the frequency error introduced by digital/analogue (11) and analogue/digital (1) converters. Moreover, the set formed by the band translation and the aforementioned resampling can be used to simplify the complexity of the interpolation filters used to generate new samples of the digital signal.

Title: A method for forming a fischer-tropsch catalyst using a boehmite support material
Inventor: JIN YAMING
IPC: B01J23/89
Filed: 2004-10-12
Abstract: A method is provided for forming a highly active Fischer-Tropsch catalyst using boehmite having a particular crystallite size. In this method, a support material comprising boehmite is contacted with a catalytic metal-containing compound to form a catalyst precursor. The boehmite is selected to have an average crystallite size in the range of from about 6 nanometers (nm) to about 30 nm. An alternate embodiment uses a mixture of boehmites with various average crystallite sizes in the range of from about 4 nm to about 30 nm, differing by at least by 1 nm. Subsequently, the catalyst precursor is calcined to convert the boehmite to a stabilized aluminum oxide structure, thereby forming a catalyst support having a good attrition resistance and a relatively high hydrothermal stability.

Patent CA-2541581-A1 (CA)
Title: Fixed window arrangement
Inventor: D EON ANTHONY P
IPC: B60J10/70
Filed: 2006-03-31
Abstract: A fixed window for use in an opening in a supporting structure. The window comprises a glazing material, a spigot, an interior trim ring and an exterior trim member. The glazing material is bonded directly to the supporting structure, which provides a window that is less likely to be pushed through the opening in the supporting structure when exposed to harsh environmental conditions and is less likely to leak when compared to framed windows. The exterior trim member is dimensioned to substantially shield the sealant used to bond the various components together from ultraviolet radiation, thus permitting use of stronger, ultraviolet radiation sensitive sealants. The components that comprise the window frame that holds the glazing material are produced from a unitary blank that can accommodate glazing materials of various thickness and can be installed on supporting structures having various thickness.
Patent CA-2543838-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SHOHAM MOSHE
IPC: G05B19/40
Filed: 2004-10-24
Abstract: A twisted wire actuator, whereby the shortening of the length of a wire or a bundle of wires (20,21,22), as it is twisted, is used to control the motion of an actuated element, achieving sub-micron motion resolution. The control can be performed robotically. The high resolution can be achieved without the use of gears, sliders, or high precision lead screws, thus enabling a simplified actuation system and eliminating sources of friction. The use of wires (20,21,22) operating in opposing directions and having oppositely directed rotations significantly reduces the non-linearity effect inherent in twisted wire actuation, resulting in a system having a good level of motion linearity as a function of control input impulse. The use of multiple twisted wires (20,21,22) attached to the actuated element at different angles, enables the implementation of robotic systems with multiple degrees of freedom. Several experimental actuators verify these results.
