Patent CA-2291297-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BOGESE STEPHEN B II
IPC: H01R4/24
Filed: 1999-11-30
Abstract: A modular telephone-style plug features a substantially three sided intermediate section which integrally connects the cable receiving end with the contact mating end of the plug. The intermediate section has an opening which spans virtually all of the fourth side of this section. The resultant three sided intermediate section provides for a reduced dielectric constant in the interior space in which the critical conductor transition from jacketed cable to contact termination occurs. This produces lower crosstalk and higher data propagation to allow this modular plug to be capable of a higher frequency for data transmission. The intermediate section features an expanded interior to lower crosstalk between twisted pairs of conductors over a wide range of data transmission rates. The intermediate section's expanded interior space permits greater freedom in the placement and relative positioning of any conductor pair to any other conductor pair. This interior space allows conductor pairs to be located a greater distance apart which reduces crosstalk substantially at higher frequencies. By utilizing the larger interior space, conductor pairs may also be placed angularly to each other so that conductor pairs are not co-planar, which further reduces crosstalk.

Inventor: MODI RAJIV INDRAVADAN
IPC: A61K35/74
Filed: 1998-04-03
Abstract: Micro organisms are useful in management of diseases including diarrhoea and gastro intestinal diseases like pseudomembranous colitis, megacolon etc. They are also useful in prevention of gastro intestinal disturbances and diseases caused by anti-infective agents like ampicillin, amoxycillin, cloxacillin, clauvanic acid, cefuroxime axetel, cephalixin, erythromycin etc. For prevention micro organisms are to be taken along with anti infective agents. When micro organisms are combined with anti-infective agents for ease of administration and improving compliance and therapeutic effect, the combination is not found to be stable at room temperature as micro organisms are sensitive to anti-infective agents and are destroyed by effect of antiinfective agent in composition. The present invention relates to the process of preparing a stable fixed dose composition of anti-infective agent with micro organism as active ingredient. The process includes preparation of various dosage forms for oral route like capsule, tablet and liquid formulation. The process comprises of providing an appropriate barrier by way of selected coating procedure to one of the active ingredients in such a way that micro organisms are not affected by anti-infective agents. This results in a stable composition. By using an appropriate coating technique composition is made to remain stable over a period of 3-36 months at ambient/room temperature. The ratio of micro organism to anti-infective agents in a composition can be 1:2 to 1:25 by weight. The ratio of 1:5 by weight is found to be optimal for the purpose. The amount of coating is dependent on the type of coating technique, dosage form i.e. capsule, tablet or liquid and desired self life. The micro organisms of the composition were found to be active after variable time period. They also provided therapeutic effect and eliminated gastro intestinal disturbances associated with anti-infective agents when evaluated in humans.

Filed: 2000-03-09
Abstract: Straight molding strips (16) slide in slots of a spiral molding strip (12, 14), forming openings (19) when fully-inserted. The openings mold rubber bridging sections. The straight strips can be fully retracted for extraction from the molding, and are subsequently re-inserted to make the next molding. The complete molding section of the assembly, resembles a cylindrical inverted basket curved about an axis (XX'). The straight strips are held by a carrier (15) which slides along the guide (17).  Preferred features: To take the spiral out of the molding, the straight strips are first pulled out, then the spiral is turned about the axis, unscrewing it from the molding. For this, the helical part can be both rotated about, and translated along, the XX' axis. The straight strips are connected to a return spring, urging re-insertion, when re-forming the molding assembly. A mold carrying one or more such assemblies is also claimed.

Abstract: A solid oxyde fuel cell electrode is produced by a sintering process. An underlayer (6) is applied to the electrolyte (4) of a solid oxide fuel cell in the form of a slurry, and dried. An overlayer (8) is applied to the underlayer (6) and dried. The dried underlayer (6) and overlayer (8) are then sintered to form a fuel electrode. The underlayer and the overlayer comprise a combination of electrode metal and stabilized zirconia with the overlayer comprising a greater percentage of electrode metal. The use of more stabilized zirconia in the underlayer provides good adhesion to the electrolyte, while the use of more electrode metal in the ovelayer provides good electrically conductivity. The sintered electrodes exhibit favorable performance characteristics, including good porosity, adhesion, electrical conductivity and freedom from degradation.

Title: System and method for collecting, aggregating, and distributing securities pricing information
Inventor: CENATIEMPO PHIL
IPC: G06Q30/00
Filed: 2000-09-01
Abstract: A method and system for providing real-time, accurate, and comprehensive pricing information to dealers of a product, such as, financial instruments, in a cost efficient manner. The system receives the dealer's internal, proprietary pricing information, determines a composite price for the product based on the received information, and distributes the composite price in a customized digital data feed to the dealer. A dealer receives only receives this composite pricing information for products on which it has submitted its internal pricing information. The composite price reflects pricing information collected from several dealers while maintaining the confidentiality of each dealer. Pricing information received from each dealer is compared to pricing information received from other dealers, and dealers found to provide pricing information which is inconsistent with pricing information provided by other dealers are prohibited from receiving composite pricing information in the future. The system and method can also be used to provide composite pricing information on any commodity which is sold at a non-fixed price outside an organized exchange.
