Patent CA-2415560-A1 (CA)
Inventor: JONGEWAARD MARK PAUL
IPC: F21V5/00
Filed: 2003-01-03
Abstract: A fascia wash luminaire has a housing, a lamp socket and a refractor lens. The lamp socket mounts within the housing and is designed to hold a lamp in place within the housing. The refractor lens is trough shaped and is also held by the housing positioned under the light generation region for focusing the light from the light generation region to the fascia more broadly beneath the luminaire and more narrowly to the sides of the luminaire. The lens is shaped such that the distance between the lens and light generation region is smaller directly under the light generation region than it is on either side of the light generation region. The luminaire may also have a reflector for boosting the light directed downward and diagonal to the luminaire.

Title: Myocardial stents
Inventor: SWAIN ROBERT
IPC: A61F2/06
Filed: 2001-08-06
Abstract: The method and apparatus described and illustrated herein generally relate to a bypass method to provide blood flow directly from a heart chamber, such as the left ventricle, and coronary vasculature, such as a coronary artery, and a conduit especially suited for placement in the myocardium to provide such flow. The conduit is particularly useful when a blockage partially or completely obstructs the coronary artery, in which case the conduit is positioned distal to the blockage. Aspects of the present invention relate to conduits in the form of stents that have particular configurations exhibiting properties suited to placement in the myocardium. Such a stent expands from a first diameter during delivery to a myocardial site to a second diameter when implanted in the site. The stent includes a configuration that has high radial strength to resist deformation from contractile forces experienced during a cardiac cycle. The configuration also exhibits high flexibility in a compressed state and a deployed state to permit passage to a myocardial site and remain patent when implanted in the site. The expandable stent may include suitable coverings and coatings.

Abstract: A core-less rubber crawler has a guide protrusion protruding from an internal surface of a rubber main body in the shape of an endless belt, and the protrusion extends in the lengthwise direction of the rubber main body at the center with respect to the widthwise direction thereof, and ground contacting lugs are provided on the rubber main body characterized in that non-ground contacting areas are formed on the ground contacting lugs correspondingly to a region where the guide protrusion is provided.  By the existence of the non-ground contacting area of the ground contacting lugs correspondingly to the place where the guide protrusion is provided, no ground contacting repulsive force is received in the non-ground contacting area. Therefore, it is possible to restrict the shearing force in the vicinity of the basal part of the guide protrusion.

Inventor: LITMAN GARY
IPC: C09J7/38
Filed: 2004-01-23
Abstract: A tape structure and/or closure system particularly useful with cylindrical insulation segments for pipes. The tape structure provides both a temporary and a permanent closure. The tape structure includes a substrate and a layer of pressure sensitive adhesive disposed on both sides of the substrate. One of the layers of pressure sensitive adhesive is covered by a release liner, while the other layer of pressure sensitive adhesive is exposed. The exposed layer of pressure sensitive adhesive is applied to one of either the underside of a flap covering a slit in the insulation jacket, or to the outer surface of the insulation jacket. The release liner is divided into two portions, one of which is narrow with respect to the other portion. The narrow portion of the release liner is removed, and a narrow strip of the second layer of pressure sensitive adhesive is attached to the other of either the outer surface of the jacket, or the underside of the flap to form a temporary closure. When it is desired to insert a pipe into the insulation segment, the temporary closure is broken by pulling the flap away from the insulation jacket. The pipe is then inserted, and a permanent closure is effected by removing the other portion of the release liner and attaching the second layer of pressure sensitive adhesive to the other of either the underside of the flap or the outer surface of the insulation jacket.

Title: Micromechanical inertial sensor having increased pickoff resonance damping
Inventor: PINSON JOHN C
IPC: G01C19/5719
Filed: 2002-09-18
Abstract: A micromechanical inertial sensor (10) is provided having a reduced pickoff Q, while maintaining a high motor Q. The micromechanical inertial sensor includ es a pair of proof masses (14) and aligned pickoff plates (26). Each pickoff plate is spaced from the respective proof mass by a gap that varies in response to out-of-plane movement of the proof mass. The micromechanical inertial sensor also includes at least one voltage source (28) for providing charge to the pickoff plates. By measuring the movement charge in each electrical circuit that includes a pickoff plate as the gap between the pickoff plate and the respective proof mass varies, a measurement of the rotation of the micromechanical inertial sensor about an input axis may be obtained. The micromechanical inertial sensor further includes resistive elements (30) disposed in series between the voltage source and each pickoff plate to increase the pickoff resonance damping of the micromechanical inertial sensor.
