Title: Method and apparatus for filtering, degassing, dehydrating and removing products of ageing in pretroleum oils
Inventor: PANTICH VLADIMIR
IPC: B01D15/00
Filed: 1996-05-30
Abstract: The invention pertains to the separation of different substances, more specifically, to a method and device for the filtration, degassing and dehydration of, and removal of ageing products from insulation and other petroleum oils. The technical result is a high level of efficiency when the aforementioned phases produced by the processing of the oil or mixture of oils are passed once through the active component, and the possibility of regenarating the used adsorbents in the process of operating the equipment, while simplifying the design and reducing dimensions and energy consumption.  The device (1) for filtration, degassing and dehydration and for the removal of ageing products comprises at least one reservoir (2) in which are arranged cylindrical partitions (3, 4) filled with adsorbent (5) and secured in the reservoir (2) by fastening elements (6). The partitions (3, 4) form channels for the passage of the oil undergoing processing. The reservoir (2) is provided with an inlet aperture (7) and an outlet aperture (8) both of which are fitted with mechanical filters (9, 10). An electric drive (12) is mounted on the base (11) of the device (1) and connected to a delivery pump (13). Also mounted on the base is a unit (14) for protecting and starting the electrical drive (12). The circulating pipes (15) link the separate parts of the device (1) as well as linking the individual devices (1) which make up the oil processing units to one another and to the consumer reservoirs containing the oil to be processed.

Patent CA-2198686-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SPINA WARREN JOHN
IPC: G06F3/00
Filed: 1997-02-27
Abstract: An ASIC (5) has four driver circuits (19a-19d), each with different output power. One of those driver circuits is selected from the content of register (13) on the ASIC. The register content being decoded by a decoder (15) on the ASIC to a signal which activates a single one of the drivers.          The register is loaded from an external microprocessor during each initialization of a printer (1) in which the ASIC is a component. The ASIC is designed with the range of the powers of the drivers bracketing the estimated needs of the load to be attached to the ASIC. This permits the ASIC to be completed only once, while the most suitable driver for the final load is determined subsequently and selected by the entry of data to activate that driver into the register with each initialization of the printer. The ASIC need not have nonvolatile memory and only a single set of ASIC masks and other design aspects need be completed.

IPC: A61F2/24
Filed: 1995-08-29
Abstract: Variably compliant natural tissue valve leaflets and vascular bioprosthetics 'incorporating variably compliant leaflets are provided along with methods for their manufacture. The variably compliant leaflets are fixed with the leaflet base section under greater pressure than the leaflet tip section rendering them relatively stiff along the leaflet base section and more flexible at the leaflet tip section. The radially variable flexing characteristics of the valve leaflets promote even distribution of mechanical stress on the valve assembly during the cardiac cycle leading to improved hemodynamic performance while retarding the calcification of the leaflet tissue.

Abstract: A method and assembly for electrically and mechanically connecting one or more flexible conductive members (11), with one or more insulated wires (12) using one or more insulation piercing terminals (13). The flexible conductive member (11) may have one or more electrically conductive layers (14) attached to a pliable backing (15). The insulated wire (12) may have one or more conductors (16). The insulation piercing terminal (13) provides a low impedance electrical connection between the flexible conductive member (11) and the insulated wire (12), while also providing a mechanical connection between the flexible conductive member (11) and the insulated wire (12) which minimizes movement of the insulated wire (12) due to any axial and/or longitudinal forces that may be applied to the insulated wire (12) or the flexible member (11) during manufacturing and use. The insulation piercing terminal (13) combines one or more piercing members (17) with an integral mechanical securing means and an electrical contact for engaging the flexible conductive member (11). The insulation piercing terminals (13), used in this method and assembly, eliminate the need to prepare either the flexible conductive member (11) or the insulated wire (12) prior to assembly. The method and assembly are of particular advantage to medical equipment manufacturers involved in designing and manufacturing flexible electrode type circuits, such as the return electrodes for use with electrosurgical generators or other electrodes or sensors associated with patient monitoring procedures and devices.
