Patent CA-2579080-A1 (CA)
Inventor: CEWERS GOERAN
IPC: A61M16/00
Filed: 2005-09-01
Abstract: A ventilator includes a sensor to monitor a characteristic associated with the delivery of gas to the patient, such as pressure. A sensor power supply (100, 130) is feeding a sensor in the form of a Wheatstone bridge. A first end (104) of the bridge is coupled to a first positive voltage source (112, 142) and a second end (116) is coupled to a second positive voltage source (118, 156, 180). A capacitor (120) is coupled to the second end of the bridge. A  controller (50) controls the first and the second positive voltage sources so as to (a) disable the sensor by causing the first positive voltage source to provide substantially zero voltage to the first end of the Wheatstone bridge and by causing the second positive voltage source to provide a positive voltage to the second end of the capacitor, and to (b) enable the sensor by causing the first positive voltage source to provide a positive voltage to the first end of the Wheatstone bridge and by causing the second positive voltage source to provide a decreasing voltage to the second end of the capacitor.

Title: Buoyant animal collar
Inventor: WATERFIELD WAYNE E
IPC: B63C9/135
Filed: 2007-02-16
Abstract: The "Buoyant Animal Collar" is essentially a flexible pad made from closed-cell foam that is wrapped around the neck of a dog or animal for providing additional buoyant support to the head of the dog or animal when the dog or animal is swimming while holding an object in the open mouth. The "Buoyant Animal Collar" assists in keeping a dog's lower jaw sufficiently above the surface of the water in order to reduce the amount of water that enters the dog's throat as the dog swims while holding an object in the open mouth. The "Buoyant Animal Collar" can be worn comfortably by a dog with minimal interference with the dog's natural swimming ability, is not restrictive to the dog's agility of movement on land, is not at risk of being rendered useless if punctured, is simple to apply to the dog, and is convenient for a person to carry.
