Title: Method for anchoring a medical device between tissue
Inventor: SCHWARTZ YITZHACK
IPC: A61B17/00
Filed: 2002-05-15
Granted: 2006-02-09
Abstract: A method for implanting a medical device between tissue comprises the steps of providing a catheter having a body and a distal end thereof wherein the catheter includes an implantable device comprising a housing having a proximal end and a distal end and a longitudinal axis. The implantable device further includes a first set of anchoring members operatively connected to the proximal end of the housing and a second set of anchoring members operatively connected to the distal end of the housing. Both sets of anchoring members are movable between a collapsed position and a deployed position. Each set of anchoring members includes ring members connected to a housing of the device. Further steps of the method include inserting the distal end of the catheter into tissue and disposing the medical device at least partially from the distal end of the catheter. The first set of anchoring members are moved from the collapsed position to the deployed position and one side of the tissue is engaged with the tissue engaging surfaces of each ring member of the first set of anchoring member. The medical device is further disposed completely from the distal end of the catheter wherein the second set of anchoring members are moved from the collapsed position to the deployed position and the other side of the tissue is engaged with the tissue engaging surfaces of each ring member of the second set of anchoring members. <IMAGE>

Patent CA-2005160-C (CA)
Inventor: CONN CALVIN RICHARD
IPC: E04B1/32
Filed: 1989-12-11
Granted: 1995-08-15
Abstract: The subject structure comprises at least one assembly of premanufactured components.  Each component comprises at least one beam with a fixture attached at each end.  The fixtures are box shaped, having tops, bottoms, ends and side faces.  The fixtures are longer (from end to end) than they are high (top to  bottom)  or  thick  (face  to  face)  and  the  faces  are perpendicular to the length of the beam.   The fixtures are generally symmetrical about a plane perpendicular to  and bisecting the faces.  Each fixture has a flange extending from one end and a groove in the other.   The components  are pivotally  connected  to  form  an  assembly,  the  pivotal connections being pins inserted through holes to hold the flange of one fixture in the groove of the next,  the pin locations being near the tops of the fixtures.  The fixtures are frusto-triangular in plan view, the tops being the bases of the triangles.   Cables are threaded endwise through the fixtures near their bottoms.  When these cables are tensioned, the  fixtures are pulled in close end-to-end contact and, because of their angled ends, the assembly is formed into an arch shaped structure.  The structures may be used singly or in numbers, side by side, to provide a structure of the desired length.  The ends of the fixtures are at angles to their tops, the angles being in a range from 70 degrees to 90 degrees.  The 90 degree angles produce an arch of infinite range, i.e. a flat structure.

Title: Method and apparatus for automatic multi-run welding
Inventor: HANSSON PEDER
IPC: B23K9/127
Filed: 1990-09-11
Granted: 2001-03-20
Abstract: This invention relates to a method and apparatus for automatic multi-run welding of a joint such as a square butt joint, a V-type joint, or a U-type joint, etc. This invention incorporates a sensor which moves along the joint and which scans a number of points along portions of the joint. The points scanned are used to calculate the cross-sectional area of the portions of the joint and the cross-sectional areas are then used to determine welding parameters, such as weld speed and weld rod feed, for the welding which is to be done in each of the joint portions. Thus, the joint is filled with weld material uniformly along its length despite deviations which may be inherent in the edges of the materials which are being welded.

Title: Method for the microbiological decontamination of soil
Inventor: BACHHAUSEN PETER
IPC: B09C1/10
Filed: 1990-01-04
Granted: 1997-12-23
Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for the microbiological decontamination of soil, in which 1)   the contaminated soil is excavated and treated, 2)   the treated soil is banked up on a prepared subsoil in the  form of regeneration clamps, and 3)   the clamps are provided with oxygen while microbiological degradation of the contaminants takes place.  The method comprises mixing the contaminated soil with, preferably contaminated, concrete and/or building rubble, before the mixture is banked up in the form of regeneration clamps, the concrete and/or building rubble having been comminuted before mixing to a particle size of ~ 10 mm, preferably ~ 6 mm.  The method according to the invention makes possible, within a short time, decontamination even of soils whose permeability for air and water is only low, and also of soils where the distribution of contaminants is highly inhomogeneous, or where the concentration of contaminants is very high.  Particularly good results are achieved when the clamps are additionally sprinkled with treated water from the operator's own treatment plant.

Granted: 1999-11-02
Abstract: Washers for cleansing metal parts, filters, quartz tubes and the like are either drum washers, or washers in the form of cabinets equipped with sprays. Industrial washers are washers adapted for assembly line cleaning of metal parts.      Separate treating zones lead to the highly cleaned metal surfaces required by many coating processes. A conveying means is usually installed in the ceilings or floors of such washers for continuous transport of fabricated metal articles therethrough, and tanks are disposed in the base of such washers. Chemical cleaning agents utilized in industrial spray washers have a significant corrosive effect on the washer equipment. Herein a life-extending solution to the corrosion problem is provided. Plastic panels are carried by framework members to form a housing over the tanks, spray assembles and drain areas. A feature herein is the provision of framework members in the form of elongated expansion seals carrying the plastic panels while permitting expansion and contraction of the panels without buckling, without leakage or loss of seal despite differences in rates of thermal expansion of plastic and metal.
