Patent CA-2282027-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BENKO DAVID ANDREW
IPC: C08L21/00
Filed: 1999-09-08
Abstract: Runflat tires are generally made by including a stiff insert in the sidewall thereof. This insert should be as stiff as possible to help support the weight of the vehicle to which the tire is mounted in situations where there is a loss of air pressure.      During periods of operation after loss of air pressure the stiff insert carries most of the load on the tire which leads to the generation of heat. Heat build-up can then lead to thermal degradation in the insert. A reduction in crosslink density and a change in the distribution of crosslink types is the result of this thermal degradation. This invention is based upon the discovery that thermal degradation in the inserts of runflat tires can be inhibited by including a bis-citraconimido compound therein as an antireversion agent. This invention more specifically discloses a pneumatic tire having at least one insert to provide the tire with runflat capability wherein the insert is comprised of a rubbery polymer and 1,3-bis(citraconimidomethyl) benzene. This invention further discloses a runflat tire which is comprised of a generally toroidal-shaped carcass with an outer circumferential tread, two spaced beads, at least one ply extending from bead to bead and sidewalls extending radially from and connecting said tread to said beads; wherein said tread is adapted to be ground contacting, wherein said sidewalls contain at least one insert radially inward from said ply and wherein the insert is comprised of a rubbery polymer and 1,3-bis(citraconimidomethyl) benzene.

Title: Method and apparatus for conducting sonochemical reactions and processes using hydrodynamic cavitation
Inventor: KOZYUK OLEG VYACHESLAVOVICH
IPC: B01J19/10
Filed: 1998-05-06
Abstract: A method and apparatus for conducting sonochemical reactions and processes using in large scales liquid medium volumes is disclosed which passes a hydrodynamic liquid flow at a velocity through a flow through channel (101) internally containing at least one element (107) to produce a local constriction of the hydrodynamic liquid flow. The velocity of the liquid flow in the local constriction is at least 16 m/sec. A hydrodynamic cavitation cavern (120) is created down stream of the local constriction, thereby generating cavitation bubbles. The cavitation bubbles are shifted with the liquid flow to an outlet from the flow through channel and the static pressure of the liquid flow is increased to at least 0.85 kg/cm2. The cavitation bubbles are then collapsed in the elevated static pressure zone, thereby initiating the sonochemical reactions and processes. At least one element may either be a bluff body which produces a local constriction of the hydrodynamic liquid flow or a baffle (105) which contains at least one transit channel to produce the local constriction of the liquid flow.

While in the same noise mode (which preferably continues while the patient is experiencing the electromagnetic interference), the implantable device paces the heart on demand and inhibits pacing during the vulnerable period. The processor determines when the vulnerable period is occurring and when the heart needs to be paced by monitoring a status signal from the heart status monitor. The heart status monitor preferably includes an impedance measurement circuit, but may include any type of cardiac sensor that can generate a status signal from which the processor can determine the beginning and ending of the vulnerable period.
