Inventor: ANDERSON MICHAEL HUGH
IPC: G06T11/20
Filed: 2005-12-20
Abstract: This patent discloses a system and method to compile a set of display points that define a two dimensional representation of a straight line graphic object using three dimensional rasterization algorithms. In one embodiment, a three dimensional (3D) graphics accelerator may receive data. The data may define three vertices (x0, y0, K0), (x1, y1, K1), and (x2, y2, K2) of a triangle primitive. Attributes K2 = (K0 + K1)/2 and coordinates (x0, y0), (x1, y1), and (x2, y2) form an isosceles triangle primitive. Coordinates (x0, y0) and (x1, y1) define a base of the isosceles triangle primitive. The isosceles triangle primitive may be rendered using the three dimensional rasterization algorithms to obtain the set of display points that define a two dimensional representation of the base of the isosceles triangle primitive.
Patent CA-2591103-A1 (CA)
Inventor: GUPTA SHAM
IPC: H01F27/29
Filed: 2007-06-08
Abstract: An iron core transformer with at least one primary winding and at least one secondary winding of which at least one of the windings are wound with aluminum wire is disclosed for use in relatively low power applications, for example 5 kVa or below. The primary and secondary windings are connected to primary and secondary terminals. In order to overcome the effects of oxidation of the aluminum wire over time which can result in compromising the connection between the aluminum wire and its corresponding terminal, the terminals are formed as insulation displacement type terminals that are configured to strip any coatings or other contaminants on the aluminum wire during insertion of the aluminum wire into the terminal. The terminals are further configured to apply a constant spring biasing force against the aluminum conductor after it has been inserted. Thus, the transformer in accordance with the present invention is able to take advantage of the relatively low cost of aluminum wire, while at the same time providing stable connections between the aluminum wire and the transformer terminals. In order to facilitate the assembly of the transformer, in accordance with one aspect of the invention, a number of sockets are integrated into the bobbin for receiving the transformer terminals.

Inventor: RYU WONHYOUNG
IPC: H01L21/30
Filed: 2006-04-11
Abstract: Improved controlled therapy is provided with a polymer multi-layer structure having a predetermined micro-fabricated spatial pattern (e.g., reservoirs and channels). More specifically, all geometrical details of the spatial pattern are substantially predetermined. The increased control of pattern geometry provided by the invention allows for improved control of therapy. In preferred embodiments, the polymer multi-layer structure of the invention is biodegradable, but has an in vivo lifetime that is greater than the duration of the therapy being provided. Thus, the geometrical pattern of the polymer structure that controls delivery of the therapy persists without significant change during therapy, and the structure degrades after completion of therapy.  In this manner, possible interference of degradation by products with therapy is minimized, and delivery of therapy does not depend on details of how degradation proceeds.

Title: Optical add-drop multiplexer architecture with reduced effect of mirror edge diffraction
Inventor: TREMAINE BRIAN P
IPC: G02B6/26
Filed: 2006-03-13
Abstract: The effects of diffraction on the pass band may be reduced by appropriate modification of the edges of the micromirrors, by modification of the input and/or output ports to allow for attenuation by rotation of the micromirror about the switching axis, by using rotation of the micromirror about both the attenuation axis and the switching axis to achieve the desired level of attenuation, by inserting an aperture at a focal plane or external to the device to reduce the magnitude of the micromirror edge diffraction transmitted to any or all output ports, or by appropriate filtering of angular frequencies with a diffraction grating used to separate a multi-channel optical signal into constituent spectral beams. Peak coupling can be attained by dithering the micromirror about an axis tangent to a contour of constant attenuation using simultaneous rotation about the switching and attenuation axes.

Title: Hand-held staple gun having a safety device
Inventor: CHOU AMMY
IPC: B25C5/00
Filed: 2007-10-09
Abstract: A hand-held staple gun comprises a housing, a driver, a spring means, a handle, and a sate actuation mechanism. The safe actuation mechanism includes a swing means, a link, and an actuation control rod.  The swing means is pivotally secured to the housing and the link is pivotally connected with the swing means. When the staple gun is not in use, the link cannot engage the driver even if the handle is pressed down, and when the staple gun is in use, the actuation control rod is pressed upward into the housing, so that the actuation control rod pushes the swing means, making the link engage the driver and therefore possible to drive staples out of the staple gun when pressing down of the handle.
