Patent CA-2376238-C (CA)
Inventor: HANSSON STEFAN
IPC: D21F1/04
Filed: 2000-06-07
Granted: 2009-12-22
Abstract: The arrangement is for washing and dewatering a fiber pulp suspension. The arrangement comprises two hollow, circular-cylindrical screen members that have evacuation chambers arranged inside the screen members for leading off liquid. The screen members rotate counter to each other to form a nip. A t least one of the screen members is arranged in a trough that partially encloses the jacket of the screen member and, in the direction of rotation o f the screen member, converges towards the jacket of the screen member. A sealing arrangement for a pulp head box distributes the pulp onto the jacket surface of the screen members. By forming a progressively decreasing gap B-A at the pulp head box counter to the rotation of the screen member, a simple self-sealing of the pulp suspension can be obtained which allows fibe r residues to be returned to the dewatering zone.

Title: Liquefracture handpiece
Inventor: SUSSMAN GLENN
IPC: A61M1/00
Filed: 2000-09-18
Granted: 2009-05-05
Abstract: A surgical handpiece having two coaxial tubes or channels mounted within a body. The first tube is used for as-piration and is smaller in diameter than the second tube so as to create an annular passage between the first and second tube. The annular passage communicates with a pumping chamber formed between two electrodes. The pumping chamber works by boiling a small volume of the surgical fluid. As the fluid boils, it expands rapidly, thereby propelling the liquid downstream of the pumping chamber out of the annular passage. The distal end of the annular gap is sealed by sealing together the distal ends of the first and second tube and a plurality of orifices or ports may be formed near the seal.  As the expanding gas is propelled down the annular gap, the gas/liquid stream is forced out of the distal orifices in a controlled and directed manner.

Abstract: In fuel supply system for an engine in which a discharge port in a fuel pump driven by the engine to draw up fuel in a fuel tank is connected to an inlet port which is provided in a fuel reservoir and which is controlled in opening and closing by a float valve so that the fuel in the fuel reservoir is supplied to the engine, a second discharge port is provided in the fuel pump, and a second inlet port without a float valve is provided in the fuel reservoir. The second discharge port and the second inlet port are connected to each other through a control valve opened during starting of the engine. Thus, when the engine is started, fuel vapor generated in a pump chamber in the fuel pump can be discharged to the fuel reservoir having an air vent, to normalize the function of the fuel pump, leading to an enhancement in hot startability of the engine.

Le ou les métaux antimicrobiens n'interfèrent pas avec la matière de bioabsorption et ne laissent pas derrière eux de particules plus grandes que 2  mu m, comme mesuré 24 heures après la disparition de la matière bioabsorbable. Les dimensions des particules du revêtement ou de la poudre sont, de préférence, de l'ordre du sous-micromètre, c'est à dire inférieures à 1  mu m, comme mesuré 24 heures après la disparition de la matière bioabsorbable. Les dimensions de ces particules sont calculées de manière à éviter la survenue de réponses immunes préjudiciables ou d'effets toxiques. Ces métaux antimicrobiens se présentent sous l'aspect d'un revêtement continu ou discontinu, d'une poudre ou d'un enduit sur une poudre bioabsorbable.

Title: Single-domain brain-targeting antibody fragments derived from llama antibodies
Inventor: MURUGANANDAM ARUMUGAM
IPC: C40B40/02
Filed: 2001-05-25
Granted: 2012-07-31
Abstract: A phage-displayed library of llama single heavy domain antibodies (sdAbs) was enriched for species that selectively bind to and are internalized by human cerebromicrovascular endothelial cells (HCEC). From the enriched library, two sdAbs were selected, sequenced, subcloned, and expressed as fusion proteins with c-myc-His5 tags. Similarly as phage-displayed sdAbs, these soluble tagged sdAbs were shown to selectively bind to HCEC and to transmigrate across in vitro human blood-brain barrier (BBB) model. In contrast to an unrelated llama sdAb, these sdAbs were also detected in the brain after i.v. injection into mice. These small (~13 kDa) antibody fragments have essential characteristics of brain-specific delivery vectors and can be used to facilitate drug transport across the BBB.

Title: A valve for use with a syringe and which prevents backflow
Inventor: KIEHNE BRUCE LEIGH
IPC: A61M39/26
Filed: 2002-07-01
Granted: 2012-01-03
Abstract: A one-way valve assembly can be fitted to the end of a syringe to allow fluid to flow from the syringe and into a body cavity but to prevent backflow. The valve assembly is opened by insertion of the luer tip of the syringe into the assembly inlet. The valve has an internal elastic member that forms a variable volume internal chamber. This chamber expands upon insertion of the luer tip into the inlet and shrinks when the luer tip is removed from the assembly. The shrinking action creates a positive pressure in the valve assembly to prevent backflow.
