Patent CA-2575126-A1 (CA)
Inventor: VETTERLING WILLIAM T
IPC: B41J2/36
Filed: 2005-07-22
Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for performing thermal history control in a thermal printer in which a single thermal print head prints sequentially on multiple color~forming layers in a single pass. Each pixel-printing interval may be divided into subintervals, which may be of unequal duration. Each sub-interval may be used to print a different color. The manner in which the input energy to be provided to each print head element is selected may be varied for each of the subintervals. For example, although a single thermal model may be used to predict the temperature of the print head elements in each of the subintervals, different parameters may be used in the different subintervals.  Similarly, different energy computation functions may be used to compute the energy to be provided to the print head in each of the subintervals based on the predicted print head temperature.

Title: Cold and hot water connecting tube structure for plastic faucets
Inventor: CHANG KIM
IPC: E03C1/04
Filed: 2007-02-01
Abstract: A cold and hot water connecting tube structure for plastic faucets comprises a connector and an inlet duct. The connector includes a tubular portion and a larger-diameter stop flange with a smaller-diameter threaded tube integrally molded to protrude downwards at the other end. The threaded tube has a watertight ring mounted to an annular groove defining an appropriate position thereon to form a set of abutment flanges at both sides. The inlet duct has an oblique guide slope cut at one end edge to abut tight against a water-sealing ring mounted inside a locking head of a cold/hot water pipe, and a conjoining section with an internal-threaded section defining the internal surface of the other end. Therefore, the connecting tube can be accurately joined without any chinks caused by cold-contraction to ensure secure connection thereby. And the separate-type design thereof also permits easy assembly and replacement of the present invention.

A stabilizer with suitable process stability and long-term stability is used in combination with the prodegradant. The invention also concerns products manufactured by the method.
Patent CA-2586115-A1 (CA)
Inventor: FANGROW THOMAS F JR
IPC: A61M39/04
Filed: 2005-11-04
Abstract: A medical connector comprises a housing with an upstream end, a downstream end and a lumen extending through a central portion thereof. A flexible member comprises a valve portion positioned within a section of the housing and is configured to control a flow of fluid through the housing lumen. The medical connector can permit fluid flow that is substantially unobstructed and linear. This generally allows the connector to achieve higher flow rates. In addition, the unobstructed and linear fluid flow can interfere less with the inherent qualities of the flowing fluid. For example, if the fluid flow is blood, the various blood cells and other constituents are less likely to break down as compared to a connector in which there is a circuitous fluid flow path in which fluid turbulently strikes against hard and/or angular internal surfaces.
