Patent CA-2775431-A1 (CA)
Inventor: NEUBERGER WOLFGANG
IPC: G02B6/00
Filed: 2010-04-13
Abstract: An improved device and method for safe, accurate and efficient surgical procedures are disclosed. The disclosed device is an optical fiber set with an asymmetric distal end configuration, comprising a bent tip fiber with a fused sleeve as an integral part of it, placed at the fiber's distal (output) end and with a rotatable connector at the proximal (input) side. Fiber tip and tissue-contacting surface located at the distal end of the tip may be constructed with different shape configurations, such as convex tip to improve focusing characteristics, concave tip to achieve diverging irradiation or an expanded beam tip to achieve an effect similar to that obtained by electrosurgical tools. A grip guarantees and enhances the ability to twist and rotate it easily. In another preferred embodiment, twisting maneuvers are enhanced through a special configuration. Both special features (bent tip and rotatable connector), allow for improved and enhanced treatment of diverse pathologies, making possible to efficiently and easily reach and treat specific tissues. Optical fiber's steerability, twistability and rotation lead to a more precise and improved effect on tissues. Due to this, easier, faster and more precise and efficient treatments can be performed by its means. For instance, it may be inserted into a cystoscope to perform high power ablation of prostatic tissue for BPH treatments, or steered into one of the prostatic lobes, which can be excavated from the inside in order to relieve pressure on the urethra while maintaining the urethra's integrity. Other uses might be the removal of tumorous, hyperplasic or other unwanted tissue in the body. Optical fiber set disclosed can be used with laser sources of various wavelengths, including dual laser sources, but also higher power LED devices or very bright light sources can be used to generate the radiation to be transmitted as well. Due to this novel design, described fiber is easy to put in place, also easy to maintain in contact with tissue and highly durable. The feel to the doctor is greatly improved too. This results in more effective power transfer into tissue and therefore procedures are more reliable and procedure times are cut by up to 30%.

Title: Photoacoustic spectroscopy with focused light
Inventor: LI YOUZHI
IPC: A61B8/00
Filed: 2010-10-05
Abstract: Photoacoustic measurements utilize emitted light to generate an acoustic response in tissue, with the acoustic response being proportional to the presence of an absorber of the light in the tissue. The present disclosure relates the use of focused light to acquire photoacoustic measurements. In one embodiment, the light is modulated, such as spatially modulated, such that the light may be focused within an otherwise scattering medium, such as tissue.

Abstract: Pump dispenser, particularly a movable-nozzle pump dispenser, intended especially for use in dispensing oral medicines e.g. to children. One feature disclosed is a tooth or ratchet structure (752,69) engageable between the plunger head (6) and the pump cylinder body (2). This enables optional holding of the plunger at an intermediate position during a dispensing stroke, so that a dose can be given bit by bit. Other proposals are formations around the top (7) of the cylinder body (2) which interact with the inside of the plunger (6) to control or limit movement of the plunger (6) according to their relative rotational orientation. For example the plunger may be locked up unless turned forcibly past a rotational stop. A related feature is a spring lock tab (67) preventing rotation of the plunger unless the tab is pressed to release it. Last but not least, the product container (100) may contain balls (98) to cause agitation and these may be held in a clip (97) to keep them in place during assembly.

IPC: H04W88/06
Filed: 2011-08-10
Abstract: The present invention prevents a mobile device from transitioning back to a first wireless communication system when access restrictions in the first wireless communication system have caused the device to transition to a different wireless communication system. The communication system of the present invention includes a mobile device (300) capable of connecting to a LTE system and 3G system, and an RNC (210) that controls the transitioning of the mobile device (300) between the LTE system and 3G system. When the mobile device (300) sends the RNC (210) a request to connect to the 3G system instead of the LTE system, in response the establishment of restrictions restricting the communication of the mobile device (300) in the LTE system, transition information indicating a transition from the LTE system is included in the request to connect. If the RNC (210) receives transition information from the mobile device, the RNC (210) prevents the mobile device (300) from transitioning to the LTE system.

Title: Ontology-driven complex event processing
Inventor: TAYLOR KERRY LEA
IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 2011-09-16
Abstract: Described embodiments relate generally to ontology-driven complex event processing (CEP). When implemented as a computer (105), the computer (105) enables, in communication with a network, user generation and transformation of an event definition into an ontology-based event definition. A computer-implemented transformer component (140) receives the ontology -based event definition, generates event processing instructions and transmits the event processing instructions to a CEP server (150) over the network. The CEP server (150) then observes a plurality of structured messages containing event data and determines whether the event data satisfy all conditions of the event definition and sends an event message responsive to determining that all event definition conditions are satisfied. The described techniques allow an arbitrary high-throughput CEP to be used. A user, unaware of the normally difficult and heterogeneous CEP interfaces, can easily construct requests for event alerts using the described interface and a domain ontology that is appropriate for the user's interest.

Filed: 2011-12-13
Abstract: The invention relates to a cooler for cooling hot bulk material, in which cooling gas flows approximately transversely to the conveying direction through a bulk material bed and in the process takes up the heat of the bulk material, wherein an apparatus which carries the bulk material bed has a ventilation floor through which cooling gas flows, and wherein the conveying principle provides for planks which extend in the conveying direction, in which at least two adjacent planks are moved simultaneously in the conveying direction and non-simultaneously counter to the conveying direction. According to the invention, it is provided that the planks have differently configured surfaces, on which the bulk material bed lies, in the conveying direction, and these surfaces, on account of their different frictional locking with the bulk material bed lying thereon, lead to mean transport speeds which differ from one another, such that as a result the bulk material bed is stretched in the region of quicker conveying and compressed in the region of slower conveying. The apparatus tumbles the bulk material to be cooled with vertical mixing, as a result of which heat is recuperated more efficiently. Drawing: Figure 1
