Title: Convex geometry adhesive film system for laser capture microdissection
Inventor: SMITH PAUL D
IPC: G01N1/28
Filed: 1998-06-25
Abstract: A tissue sample is conventionally visual-ized in a microscope. A selectively activated convex surface is provided, preferably at the distal end of a rod. This selectively activated convex surface when activated, typically with a laser through an optic light path in the microscope, provides the activated region with adhe-sive properties. At least one portion of the tis-sue sample which is to be extracted is identified.  This identified portion is contacted with a por-tion of the selectively activated convex surface on the end of the rod. When the convex surface is activated, typically by exposure to laser light in the footprint of the desired sample, an adhe-sive transfer surface on the selectively activated convex surface is provided which adheres to the desired cells in the footprint of the desired sam-ple. Thereafter, the adhesive transfer surface is separated from the remainder of the tissue sam-ple while maintaining adhesion with the desired cells.

Title: Anti-rollover brake system
Inventor: WIELENGA THOMAS J
IPC: B60T8/24
Filed: 1998-06-30
Abstract: A brake system (40) for preventing a friction rollover of a vehicle. The brake system includes a set of brakes (50, 52, 54, 56) for applying pressure to resist the rotation of the respective wheels of the vehicle, a sensor (58) for producing a rollover signal in response to a predetermined force urging the vehicle to rollover, and a control (60) for actuating the brakes in a predetermined program in response to the rollover signal.

Patent CA-2296117-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SCHMIDT DETLEF
IPC: B60Q3/02
Filed: 1998-05-25
Abstract: The invention relates to an inside lighting circuit for a vehicle, comprising a timer for time-delayed disconnection of lights, wherein a timed light is generally turned off when the ignition is activated. Hitherto, the battery tended to become discharged through a lack of attention. The door contacts used were expensive. There was no simple global solution to offset drawbacks.  The invention provides a simple, comprehensive and inexpensive solution.  Previously used timers for delayed disconnection of inside lighting are now triggered by means of a passive infrared movement detector. The previously used monitoring switch is replaced by a touch-button with a retaining member.  Said retaining member enables the effect of the ignition on the time-delayed inside light as described in the generic part of the invention to be inverted at will. When the ignition is turned off or on, the retaining member is suppressed and the elapsed timer sets back the retaining member and locks it.  The invention can be used in all types of motor vehicles.

Abstract: A portable unitary apparatus, preferably wheeled, is provided herein for disposing of hazardous light bulbs, e.g., fluorescent bulbs. The apparatus is in the form of a housing which includes an upper compartment, and a lower compartment. The top of the housing is provided with a cylindrical light bulb feed chute for a fluorescent light bulb to be disposed of. A rotary, bulb-crushing device, which is powered by a motor, is disposed within an enclosed reduction chamber shroud which depends from the upper compartment. A  disposable, pulverized light bulb collection bag is selectively disposed within the lower compartment in air-sealed relationship to the reduction chamber. A filter system is disposed within the upper chamber. This filter system includes exhaust tube means which is connected between the reduction chamber and the light bulb feed chute, and is constructed to draw noxious vapours through a primary filter by means of vacuum generating means. The filtered vapours pass through secondary and tertiary filters and then into the reduction chamber shroud, where a portion thereof is recycled through the filters again, while the rest accompanies the disintegrated glass into the disposable bag. Thus, any trace amount of gases which may be discharged into the ambient environment are environmentally-clean. Weigh means may also be provided to prevent overfilling of the disposable bags.

Title: A method to automatically and accurately portion a sequential flow of objects by weight
Inventor: GUDMUNDSSON BJARNI
IPC: G01G19/387
Filed: 1998-11-18
Abstract: The invention solves the problem of sufficiently accurately portioning by weight a sequential stream of objects with known individual weights, without having to return a considerable part of rejected excess objects to be processed again. This is achieved by accumulating excessive objects into one or more holding areas where they will be used as the basis for subsequent portions, instead of being rejected and reprocessed. This method makes it possible to use relatively simple and inexpensive equipment for sufficiently accurate portioning by weight in the fish and food processing industries, which requires highly complex and expensive equipment using existing technologies.

Abstract: A cellular network protocol which minimizes the required data flow between the cellular infrastructure and each mobile handset supporting a GPS based positioning capability is taught. Four specific innovations are introduced which together minimize the number of bits required to be transferred to each handset: a method for reducing or removing the requirement for GPS ephemeris updates to each mobile; a method for compression of the differential correction broadcast message; a method for controlling the rate at which the network updates each handset's ephemeris based on an ephemeris age limit; and, finally, a method which each mobile can use to determine when an ephemeris update is needed, based on an accuracy prediction and a threshold which is unique to each mobile.
