Patent CA-2487591-A1 (CA)
Title: Method and means for stuffing natural casings with sausage emulsion
Inventor: HERGOTT STEVEN P
IPC: A22C11/02
Filed: 2003-03-25
Abstract: A method of stuffing natural casings with emulsion involves slidably mounting a collar element (28) on the stuffing tube (14) of the machine adjacent an end of the stuffing tube opposite to the discharge end (14A) thereof. The collar is slidably advanced towards the discharge end of the tube to telescope the casing into a shirred condition (A) while leaving a non-shirred (8) portion downstream thereof. The non-shirred portion of the casing (32) is progressively advanced while the casing is filled with emulsion from the tube.  A sensor (24) is placed in the proximity of the non-shshirred portion of the casing to detect whether shirred or non-shirred casing is present. The sensor is connected to a controller (26) so that the collar will be advanced to slide the casing material on the tube when the non-shirred casing is detected, and the advance of the collar is stopped when shirred casing material is detected.
Patent CA-2489162-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SCHORR RALPH H
IPC: B61F5/14
Filed: 2004-03-25
Abstract: A long travel constant contact side bearing for railway cars provides better handling characteristics, achieving improved tracking and curving through use of various combinations of features. Such a long travel side bearing is able to meet recent stringent American Association of Railroads standards, such as M-976. Lowered spring rates, preferably less than 6,000 lb/in., help with stability and reduce set-up sensitivity. Reduced cap and base dimensions and spring design help achieve travel of at least 5/8". A visual inspection windows allows ready inspection. Increased service life and wear characteristics are obtained by addition of hardened wear surfaces, improved tolerances, changes to Grade E steel, increase of top contact surface flatness and coped top surface peripheral edges. Standardized sets of spring components can be mixed and matched, requiring fewer specialty parts. Interchangeability of improper components can be prevented by a combination of keying features and/or spring lockout features.

IPC: A61M5/32
Filed: 2005-04-15
Abstract: The present invention discloses a mechanism for tilting a retractable needle, in which a needle adapter housed within a barrel comprises a connecting tube with a receiving groove on inner wall. The connecting tube forms a rectangle hole on the wall, and a cantilever with at least one tongue is formed between the rectangle hole and the rear portion of the connecting tube. The plunger fitted in the barrel comprises an extruding ring at a front end thereof. When the plunger is pushed forwardly into the connecting tube of the needle-adapter, an exterior ring of the plunger connected to with a piston will force the tongue to bend the cantilever toward the center of the open area, and engage the extruding ring into the receiving groove. When the plunger is pulled backward, the needle-adapter and the needle will be retracted into the barrel. Meanwhile, the needle will tilt as the tongue is forced against exterior ring by the cantilever, and the needle point is therefore close to the inner wall of the barrel. Accordingly, exposure of the needle point due to carelessly pushing the plunger can be prevented.
