Patent CA-2425492-A1 (CA)
Inventor: LUBURIC FRANO
IPC: B65D43/02
Filed: 2003-04-02
Abstract: Apparatus and related methods for a container lid include a pull structure affixed to at least one end of a tamper evident tearstrip and positioned in an outer flange of the lid, the pull structure having a portion shaped to receive and engage a manipulator such as at least one finger of a user's hand, to assist the user to initiate tearing of the tearstrip from the lid. The shaped portion of the pull structure is configured to eliminate the need to grip the tearstrip between opposing digits of the user's hand. The lid may further include an extendible connection member positioned on at least one end of the tearstrip in an area or space generally defined as a "well." Among other things, the extendible connection member can provide additional flex to a hinge portion of the lid, without destroying the subsequent tamper-evidencing value of the lid. A satellite ring may be attached to or provided on the lid or container to provide further tamper evidencing and protection to the lid assembly.

Title: Methods, devices, and compositions for lysis of occlusive blood clots while sparing wound sealing clots
Inventor: SARMIENTOS PAOLO
IPC: A61K38/48
Filed: 2003-04-22
Abstract: Various mutant forms of pro-urokinase ("pro-UK") perform in the manner of pro-UK in lysing "bad" blood clots (those clots that occlude blood vessels), while sparing hemostatic fibrin in the so-called "good" blood clots (those clots that seal wounds, e.g., after surgery or other tissue injury). Thus, these pro-UK mutants are excellent and safe thrombolytic agents. These advantages allow them to be used in a variety of new methods, devices, and compositions useful for thrombolysis and treating various cardiovascular disorders in clinical situations where administration of other known thrombolytic agents has been too risky or even contraindicated.

Patent CA-2439374-A1 (CA)
Inventor: CHANG YONG
IPC: H04B7/26
Filed: 2002-12-27
Abstract: An apparatus and method for initiating a broadcast service in a mobile communication system. During a broadcast service from a base station(BS), a mobile station (MS) receives configuration information for neighbor BSs from the service BS. The configuration information indicates whether a handoff from the service BS to the neighbor BSs is possible and whether the neighbor BSs are providing the broadcast service. During a handoff to a new BS, if the new BS is a neighbor BS of the service BS and the new BS is not providing the broadcast service, the MS requests the new BS to initiate the broadcast service. If there is a BS not providing the broadcast service, the MS requests the service BS to initiate the broadcast service. The service BS then requests the neighbor BSs to initiate the broadcast service.

Title: Fastener driving tool for trim applications
Inventor: WEINGER MURRAY
IPC: B25B31/00
Filed: 1999-03-30
Abstract: An improved fastener driving tool is provided that is especially adapted to application of fasteners in trim applications, such as the fastening of wood trim and decorative pieces. The preferred embodiment is a combustion tool, and includes an incrementally adjustable fastener driving depth setting mechanism. The incremental control permits an operator to select from a number of discrete depth settings over a limited range. The preferred tool also includes a distance amplifying fastener lockout. The lockout amplifies a fastener follower movement permitting the blocking of movement of a linkage necessary to tool operation in response to the movement associated with an individual small fastener being dispensed. A trigger and handle of the preferred tool are proximate to the driver blade axis, and the trigger is disposed within an imaginary extension of a fuel canister held within the tool housing. A unique fastener magazine extends into the nosepiece, includes ribs for holding separate pieces of the tool housing together, and includes a solid bottom portion preventing exposure of fasteners held in the tool. An elongated joining element serves to hold the housing pieces together along the front of the tool, and provides a sight permitting an operator to properly align the tool over a workpiece. A  battery holder in the tool includes separate locked operational and standby positions. The standby position prevents contact with tool circuits to electrically disable the tool.
