Title: Gastric stimulator apparatus and method for installing
Inventor: JENKINS DAVID A
IPC: A61N1/05
Filed: 2003-06-16
Abstract: Apparatus for stimulating neuromuscular tissue of the gastrointestinal tract and methods for installing the apparatus to the neuromuscular tissue. The pulse generator (70) is provided with a switching matrix (72), and may stimulate the tissue in a time-varying manner by selecting pairs of electrodes (26, 28, 30, 32) and altering the polarities thereof while stimulating the tissue. In addition, a real-time clock allowing a trigger for on and off modes, the time clock could also allow for a trigger to change parameters.  Such parameters that could be changed are pulse width, amplitude, duty cycle (amount of time of pulse and time between pulses, or series of pulses), frequency, polarity, choice of unipolar versus bi-polar, and electrode on-off.  The electrical stimulation utilizes a plurality of electrodes connected to at least one organ in the gastrointestinal tract of a patient along a peristaltic flow path with each of the electrodes being connected at a different location along the peristaltic flow path. Electrical pulses are provided to the organ from a first set of the plurality of electrodes and second electrical pulses are provided to the organ from a second set of electrodes. The electrical pulses provided are in an independent non-phased relationship for maintaining therapeutic regulation of peristaltic flow through the at least one organ in the gastrointestinal tract while defeating the body's natural tendency for adaption.

Title: Compositions pour la bacterisation d'engrais organiques (eo) et organo-mineraux (eom) granules
Inventor: CLAUDE PIERRE-PHILIPPE
IPC: C12N1/20
Filed: 2005-01-04
Abstract: L'invention concerne des compositions pour la bactérisation d'engrais organiques (EO) et d'engrais- organo minéraux (EOM) granulés destinés aux cultures agronomiques non- Leguminosea. Leur fabrication consiste en une double mise en contact ; (1) des fines particule s de sols et de bactéries favorisant la croissance des plantes (BCFP), bactéries isolées en raison de leur compétence édaphique, dans le cadre d'une fermentation et formulation à l'état solide (FFES), et ( 2) de l'inoculum BFCP ainsi produite et d'EO/EOM, et/ou leurs précurseurs au cours de la fabrication desdits EO/EOM, pouvant lui servir d'expédiants et de substrats carbonés une fois ces BFCP réintroduites dans le sol selon différentes façon culturale, dont notamment l'application en bande d'engrais de démarrag e. L'invention assure que ces mises en contact soient économiques et faiblement bactériocides malgré u ne teneur en sels minéraux fertilisants des EOM ainsi constitués pouvant atteindre jusqu'à 25 à 30% de leurs poids sec. L'invention permet de conférer à ces nouvelles matières fertilisantes une une triple action minérale, organique et bactériologique. Cette triple action lui permet de surpasser en terme d'efficacité agronomique les actuels EO/EOM lorsque utilisés comme engrais de démarrage pour cultures agronomique s non-Leguminosea. L'invention est avantageusement mise en oeuvre en situations agronomique où il y a absence de résidus de culture au sol au moment des semis et/ou sur sols moyennement saturés en phosphore et donc peu ou pas propices à la fertilisation phosphatée conventionnelle.
Patent CA-2495316-A1 (CA)
Title: Low leakage asymmetric sram cell devices
Inventor: MOSHOVOS ANDREAS
IPC: G11C/
Filed: 2003-08-08
Abstract: Asymmetric SRAM cell designs exploiting data storage patterns found in ordinary software programs wherein most of the bits stored are zeroes for data and instruction streams. The asymmetric SRAM cell designs offer lower leakage power with little impact on latency. In asymmetric SRAM cells, selected transistors are "weakened" to reduce leakage current when the cell is storing a zero. Transistor weakening may be achieved by using higher voltage threshold transistors, by varying transistor geometries, or other means. In addition, a novel sense amplifier design is provided that leverages the asymmetric nature of the asymmetric SRAM cells to offer cell read times that are comparable with conventional symmetric SRAM cells. Lastly, cache memory designs are provided that are based on asymmetric SRAM cells offering leakage power reduction while maintaining high performance, comparable noise margins, and stability with respect to conventional cache memories.

Title: Device for coupling implement to agricultural tractor
Inventor: YAMADA SHOICHI
IPC: A01B59/043
Filed: 2005-03-04
Abstract: The invention relates to a device for a coupling an agricultural implement to an agricultural tractor, in which the operation to release the coupling between the agricultural implement and the agricultural tractor can be easily implemented. When the coupling of the agricultural tractor and the agricultural implement is released, first, a control lever of a coupling hook is slid upward against the urging force of a spring until a second guide pin reaches the lower end of a slit. Next, the control lever is turned forward around the second guide pin until a bent portion of the upper portion and the lower portion of the control lever comes into contact with a first guide pin. As a result, the rear end of a stopper is retracted into a cavity in the hook main body of the device through a second opening so as to slide to the coupling-ball-releasing position, and a groove of the stopper is hooked to a hooking pin so as to be fixed.
