Patent CA-2658551-A1 (CA)
Inventor: CAI EDWARD Z
IPC: B65D51/16
Filed: 2007-07-26
Abstract: A vacuum sealing device comprises a lid having a rigid rim with a lower opening for receiving a dish, an impermeable elastic membrane peripherally affixed to the rigid rim for sealing the dish, and a valve-less air evacuator formed between the elastic membrane and the dish rim which allows air to flow out of the dish when the lid is being pressed and becomes closed when the lid is released to cause said lid to rebound to form a vacuum in the dish. The rigid rim prevents lid deformation when the lid is pressed, thus enabling the vacuum formation. To facilitate lid removal, the device has a valve-less vacuum releaser comprising a finger-receiving chamber and a section of the elastic membrane located above the chamber and connected to the rigid rim for releasing the vacuum in the dish.

Title: Agricultural implement having forward folding wing booms
Inventor: FRIGGSTAD TERRANCE A
IPC: A01B73/02
Filed: 2009-05-05
Abstract: An agricultural implement includes a hitch boom to which a pair of wing booms is pivotably connected. The wing booms are designed to fold forward from an extended position to a transport position. The wing booms are supported above a surface by wheels that provide the aforementioned support when the wing booms are in an extended position as well as the transport position. Maintaining surface contact of the wheels in both positions reduces the load placed on the hitch to which the hitch boom is coupled as well as the hitch boom itself. Multi-link draft links are connected between the hitch boom and the wing booms to provide support for the wing booms when the wing booms are in the extended position. The relative length of the draft links dictates how far the hitch telescopes when the wing booms are folded to the stowed or transport position.

Filed: 2008-06-20
Abstract: The present invention provides apparatus and methods for performing assays for determining the time required for a sample of blood to coagulate. The apparatus comprises reaction chambers coated with one or more clotting agent. A drop of blood or equivalent is placed at the sample application port, diluted, and contacted with the clotting agents in the reaction chambers.
