Patent CA-2702673-A1 (CA)
Inventor: GARDNER DANIEL LEE
IPC: H02H3/08
Filed: 2010-04-28
Abstract: A high voltage, preferably 35kV, rubber molded fused vacuum interrupter assembly for protecting an electrical circuit from fault currents. The assembly includes one or more vacuum fault interrupters; one or more current limiting fuses; one or more sensing modules and a control module. Each of the vacuum fault interrupters is contained in a molded insulating structure and each of the current limiting fuses is encapsulated in a rubber molding. For each phase of the electrical circuit, a vacuum fault interrupter and a current limiting fuse are connected in series.  The sensing modules measure the current in the lines. The vacuum fault interrupter interrupts low current faults and the fuse operates to protect against high current faults in a high voltage electrical power line. A three-phase electrical circuit would have three vacuum fault interrupters and three current limiting fuses.

Abstract: A method of texturing a soft prosthetic implant shell, such as a silicone breast implant shell. A soft prosthetic implant (100) with a textured external surface (104) layer of silicone elastomer and having an open-cell structure is made by adhering and then dissolving round salt crystals. The resulting roughened surface has enhanced physical properties relative to surfaces formed with angular salt crystals. An implant having such a textured external surface layer is expected to help prevent capsular contraction, to help prevent scar formation, and to help in anchoring the implant within the body.

Title: Liquid-cooled grate plate comprising wear plates and stepped grate made of such grate plates
Inventor: SANDEMANN MICHAEL
IPC: F23H1/02
Filed: 2008-08-11
Abstract: The liquid-cooled grill plate has a carrier and drive design, having a separate cooling body (K) that can be placed into said carrier and drive design and permeated by the liquid and having wear plates mounted onto said cooling body. The cooling body (K) is a welded design formed by square tube sections (20-26) and profiled sections (27), said design forming continuous elongated recesses (28-30) extending across the entire extension with the exception of the square tube sections (23-26) bridging said recesses (28-30). The carrier design is a ribbed configuration made of planar steel parts that are welded together and the drive unit (15) encloses a hydraulic cylinder-piston unit, which is accommodated on the inside of a square tube (18), said tube being guided displaceably in a tunnel-like breakthrough on said ribbed configuration.  Between the wear plates and the cooling body (K) a highly heat-conductive soft silicone film (31) is clamped, which ensures good heat transfer. In this way, it is ensured that during operation the wear plates always remain in the non-critical temperature range in that they are cooled by the cooling body (K) disposed beneath, which heats up to about 50°C. Said grill plate is much easier and inexpensive to produce because the welding work is considerably reduced and less complex as a result of the use of a separate cooling body (K).
