Patent CA-2480620-A1 (CA)
Inventor: TEISSIER PIERRE
IPC: A23L13/60
Filed: 2003-03-31
Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé d'amélioration de la qualité gustative et de réduction de l'absorption d'eau des isolats protéiques, en particulier, les concentrés protéiques de soja. Ce procédé consiste à traiter la surface des isolats protéiques avec une solution aqueuse contenant un polysaccharide, de manière à enrober les isolats protéiques, neutraliser le goût de la molécule protéique et former une barrière contre l'humidité. Les isolats protéiques traités sont ensuite séchés pour obtenir une poudre. Les isolats protéiques résultants ont un goût neutre, présentent un taux d'adsorption d'eau réduit par rapport aux isolats protéiques non traités et peuvent être utilisés dans de nombreux produits alimentaires sans subir de réversion de goût.

IPC: G01N35/00
Filed: 2003-04-25
Abstract: An apparatus and method for selecting and dispensing coverglasses (68) over specimens on slides (190) for the purpose of viewing specimens through a microscope. The selecting device contains a suctioning mechanism (72) for picking up a coverglass (68) from a stack of coverglasses (182). It also contains the ability to bend the coverglass (68) to assist in separating the coverglasses (68). The apparatus further contains a matched barrier to eliminate any coverglasses (68) that may stick to the selected coverglass (68). The selecting device also contains spring members (76) which aid in the dispensing of the coverglass (68).

Inventor: YANG JEFFERSON YS
IPC: H01M8/04
Filed: 2004-11-29
Abstract: A power management system includes a fuel cell based primary power supply and a rechargeable cell based secondary power supply and a charging control circuit arranged between the two power supplies. A controller applies a charging control signal to the charging control circuit for controlling the magnitude of a charging current for charging the second power supply. When the output voltage of the first power supply is greater than that of the second power supply, the charging control signal controls the charging current in accordance with a predetermined threshold of the output voltage of the second power supply. A switching circuit is arranged between the first power supply and the second power supply for selectively allowing the output voltage of the second power supply to be fed, together with the output voltage of the first power supply, to an external load, when the output voltage of the second power supply is greater than a predetermined level.

Title: Power actuator for door latch
Inventor: TOMASZEWSKI KRIS
IPC: E05B65/12
Filed: 2003-08-20
Abstract: A power actuator ässembly for a latch includes first and second articulated levers (24, 30). The first lever includes cam follower surfaces (32A, 3213) and the second lever includes at least one stop member (28) which pivots between first and second positions as each lever (24, 30) travels between first and second positions. A motor-driven cam (16) having driving members (18A, 1813) and stop members (20A, 2013) drives the first (24) lever. More particularly, each driving member (18A, 1813) has a path of travel that engages one of the cam follower surfaces (32A, 3213) for a portion of the travel path to drive the first and second levers and is in disengaging alignment with the cam follower for another portion of travel. The cam stop members (20A, 2013) abut the stop member (28) of the second lever (30) when the cam driving members (18A, 1813) are in the non-aligned position, whereby the levers may be activated without driving the cam (16). The assembly can be employed, inter alia, in a lock application or a power release application so as to preclude the necessity of having to backdrive the power actuator.

Patent CA-2507865-A1 (CA)
Inventor: DEGROOT PAUL J
IPC: A61N1/39
Filed: 2003-12-03
Abstract: The present invention provides structures and methods for delivering a complex slow-rise defibrillation waveform wherein in lieu of the simple truncation of prior art defibrillation waveforms, when a predetermined amplitude is reached for an ascending waveform (e.g., a ramp waveform), the waveform transitions to an exponential decay portion for a period of time and at the expiration of the period of time, a truncation occurs. In the event that a first complex bi-phasic ramp wave form is implemented, a second opposite polarity waveform may be delivered. Said second waveform is preferably of similar shape to the first waveform, but of a less magnitude amplitude, although the second waveform may comprise a traditional waveform. The implementation and feasibility of the waveforms according to the present invention in an ICD or an AED is relatively simple while providing significant advantages not previously known or used in the prior art.

Title: Alternative packer setting method
Inventor: KING JAMES G
IPC: E21B33/128
Filed: 2003-12-19
Abstract: Fluid setting pressure is delivered to a hydraulically set well packer through an external conduit strapped to the exterior of a well workstring above the packer assembly. The continuity of the external conduit is continued past the packer assembly by following a flow channel along the mandrel sleeve thickness. Representatively, the external conduit may serve a primary well function other than packer setting (e.g. well chemical delivery). A calibrated rupture element in the external conduit is disposed to initially obstruct external conduit flow past the packer element. Consequently, fluid pressure transferred down the external conduit is first channeled to the packer setting pressure chamber. After setting, the fluid pressure in the external conduit is increased to rupture the calibrated element. When the external conduit flow channel is opened by rupture of the calibrated element, and the additional well service function may be accomplished.
