Patent CA-2312808-A1 (CA)
Title: A device for examining respiratory diseases, and diagnostic agents
Inventor: KRUMBIEGEL PETER
IPC: G01N33/497
Filed: 1998-11-19
Abstract: The invention relates to a device which can be used in conjunction with a conventional analysis system for diagnosing the metabolic capacity of the respiratory tracts. The device enables specific quantities of suitable diagnostic agents to be added to the inspired air and after a certain time span, can be used to collect metabolites of the diagnostic agents present in the expired air and/or the diagnostic agent itself if still present. Conventional analysis systems are then used to identify the substances which have been expired and collected and determine the quantities present (e.g. using mass spectrometry, gas chromatography, GC-MS-MS, HPL-MS, isotope analysis). Conclusions can then be drawn as to the state of health of the respiratory tract organs. The invention also relates to diagnostic agents which can be used for determining the metabolic capacity of the respiratory tract epithelium, and which are used especially advantageously in conjunction with the inventive device, and to an analytical chemical method for determining the metabolic capacity of the bronchial epithelium.

Title: Parking brake assembly having quiet apply
Inventor: DJORDJEVIC NEBOJSA
IPC: B60T7/08
Filed: 2000-10-19
Abstract: A parking brake assembly for a vehicle has a mounting bracket, a handle assembly and a clutching mechanism. The mounting bracket has a stop. The handle assembly is pivotally mounted on the mounting bracket for rotation about a first axis. The handle is moveable between a brake applied position and a brake release position. The handle has an actuator. A cam is pivotally mounted on the handle about a second axis offset from the first axis. The cam has a cam surface which varies radially from the second axis. The cam is biased to engage the stop. A clutch spring frictionally engages the cam and is operably connected to the actuator. Movement of the actuator in response to manual manipulation responsively moves the clutch spring to decrease the frictional engagement, thereby enabling the cam to engage with the stop. In response to releasing the actuator, the clutch spring moves to increase frictional engagement with the cam thereby retaining the cam in a position to engage the stop and prop the handle in a braking position.

Title: Method for the treatment of slag resulting from the refining of stainless steel
Inventor: KUMAGAI MASATO
IPC: C21C7/00
Filed: 2000-03-02
Abstract: A method for treating a stainless steel refining slag which comprises treati ng a slag generated in a refining process for stainless steel so as for the sla g to have a basicity of 1.3 to 4.0 and then mixing the slag in molten state wi th a substance containing a sulfur having a valency of zero or a negative value  in an amount such that the slag has a sulfur content of 0.2 wt % or more. Th e method can be used for modifying the above slag so that Cr6+ does not elute from the plug substantially perfectly, which results in the effective use of  the slag as a material of a pavement base which is free from the danger of environmental pollution. It is preferred for efficient modification that the  cooling of the slag mixed with the sulfur-containing substance from 1200 ~C to 400 ~C is carried out rapidly, i.e, within a time of 48 hrs.
Patent CA-2332267-A1 (CA)
Inventor: WAGGOTT JOHN

Filed: 1999-05-10
Abstract: A self-aligning, sealing assembly (22) in accordance with the present invention includes a sealing apparatus (14) and at least one preloading device (27). The sealing assembly (22) is mounted in machinery which has a rotating shaft (16) and a stationary member (20) with an inner surface (30) which is spaced from and surrounds a shaft (16). A slot (36) is located in and extends around the inner surface (30) of the stationary member (20). The slot (36) has an upstream surface (40), a downstream surface (42), and an outer surface (38). The sealing apparatus (14) is adjustably disposed in the slot (36) and has an inner surface (44), an outer surface (46), an upstream surface (48) and a downstream surface (50). Labyrinth seal teeth (24) extend radially inward from the inner surface (44) of the sealing apparatus (14). Each tooth is radially spaced from the shaft to form a non-contact seal. A space (62) between the outer surface of the ring and the outer surface of the slot is designed to accommodate radial movement of the ring resulting from radial movement of the shaft. The preloading device has first and second ends, with the first end abutting the upstream surface of the slot and the second end abutting an opposing surface of the sealing apparatus. The preloading device ensures sufficient frictional forces between the ring and the slot to support the weight of the sealing apparatus when an insufficient pressure difference exists.

Abstract: A multiple virtual router is a subsystem that allows multiple network layer protocols (i.e. IP, IPX and Bridging protocols) to co-exist on the same physical port 14. It provides a common set of interfaces between the Media Layer and the protocol processes.  Media events or changes in the protocol port (i.e. port deletion, media deregistration, media registration, media state change, media mtu change, connectionless routing metric change, etc.) may be broadcast to each protocol giving them an accurate view of the system. A multiple virtual router is disclosed which includes a housing and multiple routing modules distributed therein. A separate table is associated with each protocol within each routing module. The multiple virtual router also includes a management module for configuring the routing modules. Communications between the management module and the routing modules occurs out of band from the user traffic. Further, the housing has multiple ports each of which is logically coupleable to different routing modules.

Title: Diode-pumped laser amplifier
Inventor: HOLLEMANN GUNTER
IPC: H01S3/10
Filed: 2001-08-02
Abstract: The object in the case of a diode-pumped laser amplifier is to increase the tolerance of the amplifier arrangement relative to variations of the input parameters significantly, so that fine-tuning is no longer necessary for guaranteeing the stability of the amplifier. Into a laser-active solid-state medium where a thermal lens of a strength which is different in orthogonal planes is generated in consequence of the irradiated pump radiation, a laser beam to be amplified is directed into the laser--active solid-state medium while being focused in the plane with a strong thermal lens, wherein a beam waist that is being generated lies in the area of the thermal lens. The laser amplifier can be used for amplifying the radiation of an oscillator.
