Patent CA-2545431-C (CA)
Inventor: ORTIZ MARK S
IPC: A61B17/11
Filed: 2006-05-02
Granted: 2014-04-08
Abstract: A surgical instrument comprises a handle and an elongate shaft, and is operable to remove an anastomotic ring device from a patient. The elongate shaft houses a plurality of ring engaging fingers. Each of the fingers comprises sheath housing a wire having a hook at its distal end. Each hook may be advanced beyond the distal end of a respective sheath to engage petals on an anastomotic ring device. Subsequent proximal retraction of the hooks secures the anastomotic ring device to the ring engaging fingers. With the anastomotic ring device secured to the ring engaging fingers, the fingers may be drawn together to collapse the anastomotic ring device from an actuated, hollow rivet-shaped configuration to an unactuated, cylindrically-shaped configuration. The surgical instrument may then contain the collapsed anastomotic ring device, thereby facilitating removal of the anastomotic ring device from the patient.
Patent CA-2548228-C (CA)

Granted: 2011-02-08
Abstract: L'invention concerne un nouvel article du type pile à combustible à oxyde solide et un procédé de fabrication à propriétés améliorées et moins cher. Les caractéristiques structurelles et les procédés de l'invention impliquent la fabrication d'une anode (c'est-à-dire une électrode de combustible); l'application d'un électrolyte à base de cermet, se composant d'un mélange de céramique et de substances actives au plan électrochimique et l'application d'une couche cathodique. L'électrolyte à base de cermet, qui contient une petite quantité de métal de transition, réduit l'écart d'expansion thermique avec l'anode, et permet l'obtention d'une structure étagée des substances actives au plan électrochimique dans la structure de l'anode/électrolyte. Dans des conditions de fonctionnement, une sous-couche d'électrolyte dense et d'oxyde de métal est prévue du côté oxydé (côté cathode) alors que l'autre côté de l'électrolyte (côté de réduction) est constitué d'une sous-couche poreuse contenant un métal de transition. L'adaptation des quantités de métal présentes dans l'anode et le cermet à base d'électrolyte permet l'obtention d'une puissance de sortie et de performances électrochimiques supérieures et le maintien simultané de l'intégrité structurelle et de la fiabilité d'une pile à combustible à oxyde solide.

Title: Unscheduled power save delivery method in a wireless local area network for real time communication
Inventor: SIMPSON FLOYD D
IPC: H04W84/12
Filed: 2004-12-14
Granted: 2009-09-15
Abstract: A mobile station (106) establishes a real time communication link via an access point (102) for carrying voice or other time-sensitive data. A WLAN  subsystem (204) of the mobile station is normally kept in a low power state.  Upon initiating a communication link the mobile station signals to the access point that unscheduled power save delivery mode will be used (614), and the access point reserves resources to assure the necessary quality of service.  The mobile station initiates a frame transaction by first powering up the WLAN  subsystem (712), acquiring the WLAN channel (407), and transmitting a polling frame. Upon successful receipt of the polling frame the access point prepares to reply with an aggregate response. The aggregate response commences by transmitting all data in an aggregate buffer, including both reserved and unreserved data buffers. Upon successful receipt of the aggregate response, the mobile station places the WLAN subsystem back into a low power state.

Title: Method for the recovery of gold from sulphide concentrate
Inventor: LEPPINEN JAAKKO
IPC: C22B11/00
Filed: 2006-02-14
Granted: 2014-11-18
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for recovering gold from a sulphidic concentrate, particularly one containing arsenopyrite and/or pyrite, hydro-metallurgically. The concentrate is first subjected to leaching with a concentrated solution of alkali chloride and copper (II) chloride, by means of which the copper minerals and some of the gold in the concentrate are made to dissolve. Elemental sulphur and precipitated iron and arsenic compounds are separated from the leaching residue using physical separation methods, whereby the first intermediate is obtained, which contains gold- bearing sulphide minerals and gangue minerals as well as the gold that remains undissolved. The free gold that remains undissolved is separated by means of gravity separation methods. After gravity separation, additional comminution is carried out, after which the sulphide minerals are decomposed and the gold-containing solution or residue is routed to the concentrate leaching circuit.
