Patent CA-2786729-A1 (CA)
Title: Adjuster and shock absorber
Inventor: ITO MIKIO
IPC: F16F9/44
Filed: 2011-03-17
Abstract: Provided are an adjuster and shock absorber, wherein a rotating member, which axially displaces a valve member according to a rotation operation, is supported by an adjuster case on the same axis as the valve member. A detent mechanism is composed of: a fluid chamber that exerts a fluid pressure on the rotating member in a direction in which the fluid chamber is spaced apart from the valve member; a pressure member fixed to the rotating member; and a pressure-receiving member fixed to the adjuster which supports the pressure member against the pressure from the pressure chamber. An engagement part, which engages with the pressure member, is formed on the pressure-receiving member, thereby permitting the dimensions of the rotating member of the adjuster and the operation input to be minimized.

Title: Butyl ionomer latex
Inventor: ADKINSON DANA K
IPC: C08L23/22
Filed: 2011-08-11
Abstract: The invention relates to a latex composition wherein the latex composition comprises a butyl ionomer or partially halogenated butyl rubber ionomer. The latex composition is formed by dissolving the butyl ionomer in a suitable solvent, emulsifying the polymer in the solvent, adding water and optionally a minor amount of a suitable surfactant system to the emulsion and concentrating the emulsion to remove the water. The advantages of butyl ionomer latex include lower emulsifier levels, increased latex stability, improved interaction and adhesion to polar substrates and surfaces. Through the judicious choice of emulsifiers and/or washing to remove excess emulsifier a film with enhanced non-extractable polymeric antimicrobial function can be created. These properties of ionomer latex are useful in coatings, dipped goods and sponge applications.
