Patent CA-2700022-A1 (CA)
IPC: H02J9/06
Filed: 2010-05-11
Abstract: This is a reserve electrical power device that switches automatically from main grid power to back up 24 V DC battery power when the main grid power is not available.  The battery power is then converted into 240 V, 60 Hz, AC and/or 120 V, 60 Hz, AC. This back up power device can be used for artesian wells pumps, sump pumps, fans, oil furnaces, refrigerators, freezers etc. The duration of the backup power is determined by the amount of amperes consumed and by the length of time that the amperes are drawn from the backup supply. When the main grid power supply becomes available again, the device automatically switches back to main grid mode. When the device returns to main grid mode, the incorporated chargers will recondition the batteries back to optimum voltage.

Title: Enhanced fatigue strength orthopaedic implant with porous coating and method of making same
Inventor: SHETTY H RAVINDRANATH
IPC: A61F2/00
Filed: 2000-03-03
Abstract: A method for producing an orthopaedic implant having enhanced fatigue strength. A forged implant substrate having an elongated stem is incorporated with a melting point lowering substance. Then, metal particles are sintered to the substrate, forming a porous layer on the substrate which enhances bone ingrowth or the mechanical interlock with bone cement. Advantageously, the sintering occurs at a lower temperature than if the substance were not incorporated into the substrate, which in turn results in an enhanced fatigue strength of the inventive implant. The fatigue strength of a forged or cast implant can also be improved by nitrogen diffusion hardening and/or thermally processing the implant after the porous coating is adhered by sintering. Further, the fatigue strength can be further improved by combining incorporating the melting point lowering substance with nitrogen diffusion hardening and/or aging treatment subsequent to sintering.

Inventor: SIKES C STEVEN
IPC: C02F1/24
Filed: 2009-07-23
Abstract: Oily and/or solids-containing water is clarified by chemical treatment to form flocculated and agglomerated solid phases and a clear water phase. In the clarification process, microbubbles of air or other gas are introduced at atmospheric pressure, via an eductor or other suitable device, together with a flocculant. During the subsequent formation of floes and their agglomeration into larger masses, microbubbles become entrained within and adhered to the solid flocculated materials. The resulting masses are very buoyant and easily separated from the water via a variety of approaches that include skimming, decanting, filtration, and screening. This process results in a solids phase that may be disposed of as waste, if desired, and a highly clarified water phase.
