Patent CA-2187199-A1 (CA)
Inventor: RASCH ANDREAS
IPC: G02B30/25
Filed: 1996-02-06
Abstract: The invention concerns colour image formation systems for displaying real or virtual, two-dimensional or three-dimensional, colour or monochrome images, and the use thereof, in particular for television and video or printing applications. The basic concept of one variant printing applications. The basic concept of one variant (a) is the use of a "unit for three-dimensional beam combination" (14) for combining three light components of different wavelengths in the visible spectrum and the diffraction of the light (LVM) thus combined in such a way as to create, by intensity or amplitude modulation and colour modulation of the light components carried out synchronously with the diffraction of the combined light (LVM), a virtual image in space or a real image on a projection screen (5) which can be perceived by the eye (12) of the observer. The "unit for three-dimensional beam combination" (14) comprises waveguides (2, 9) capable, with more or less equal effectiveness, of broad-band or spectrally selective transmission and three-dimensional combination of light. All electronic and optical assemblies for the colour image formation can be integrated on a substrate (11) in either monolithic or hybrid form. The colour picture formation system can be realised in the form of a module enclosed in a housing.

Abstract: This invention comprises the use of buoyancy forces to counter, in whole or in part, the gravity forces to which structures, such as buildings and bridges, are subjected during earthquakes.   It also comprises the retrofitting of existing structures, such as buildings and bridges, in zones of high seismicity, by introducing the forces of buoyancy to counter the gravity forces to which these structures are subjected.   Present practice is to accept the seismic forces at ground level and to design structures to resist the inertial forces to which they are subjected during seismic activity.   The concept of the present invention is to deal with the problem at the source; i.e., at ground level, thus eliminating, in whole or in part, the necessity for dealing with the problem within the structures.

Inventor: OLIVEIRA CESAR B
IPC: A61M5/50
Filed: 1996-12-18
Abstract: A syringe arranged for a single use is described.  The syringe comprises a cylindrical body for holding a liquid therein, a nozzle for drawing up and ejecting the liquid and a plunger including a plunger head arranged for a sliding fit within the cylindrical body such that the plunger slides along the cylindrical body in an uptake direction for taking the liquid up into the cylindrical body and an expeldirection for ejecting the liquid from the cylindrical body.  The syringe further includes either individually or any combination thereof: one-way locking means, a valve system, a stopper and a spring-loaded ball for preventing the syringe frombeing used more than once.  Specifically, the one-way locking means is arranged to lock the plunger in place within the cylindrical body one the plunger has ejected the liquid.  The one-way locking means may comprise a spring-loaded rib arranged to project inwardly from the cylindrical body proximal to the bottom ofthe cylindrical body.  The stopper is arranged to prevent the plunger from beingseparated from the syringe.  The spring-loaded ball is arranged, when released, to plug the nozzle as a result of suction generated when the plunger slides in the uptake direction, thereby preventing liquid from being drawn up.  The valve system is arranged within the plunger head such that when the valve system is activated, air flows through the plunger head so that no suction is generated, thereby preventing liquid from being drawn up.  Thus, any one of these features or any combination thereof may be used to prevent the syringe from being reused.

Title: Method and apparatus for drilling with high-pressure, reduced solid content liquid
Inventor: SCHUH FRANK JOSEPH
IPC: E21B21/12
Filed: 1995-12-13
Abstract: A drillstring terminating in an drill bit (3) is run into a borehole. A reduced solid content drilling fluid is pumped through the drillstring tubes and out the bit, wherein the drilling fluid impinges upon and disintegrates formation material in cooperation with the bit. An annulus fluid having a density greater than that of the drilling fluid is continuously pumped into the annulus (5) between the borehole and the drillstring, wherein the annulus fluid extends substantially from the surface to the bottom of the drillstring. Drilling fluid and cuttings resulting from disintegration of formation material are returned to the surface through a substantially unobstructed tubular passage (17) in the drillstring. The annulus fluid is maintained under a selected and controlled pressure in the annulus, wherein an interface is formed at the drill bit at which annulus fluid mixes with the drilling fluid and is returned along with the drilling fluid and cuttings, and drilling fluid is substantially prevented from entering the annulus.
