Patent CA-2498805-A1 (CA)
Title: Hermetically sealed load cell
Inventor: HOPKINS RANDALL K
IPC: G01L1/22
Filed: 2003-09-29
Abstract: A load cell includes two beam elements and a strain gage arranged on a narro w sensing section of a beam element, on a flat planar outer surface facing outwardly away from the median plane extending longitudinally through the lo ad cell. A cup-shaped seal cap encloses the strain gage, and is laser welded on to the outer surface of the beam element to form a hermetic seal. A writing tunnel in the load cell body leads from inside the seal cap into an electronics cavity for wires to pass from the strain gage to electronic circuitry in the cavity. The load cell body and seal caps, made of stainless steel or titanium, are entirely hermetically sealed and suitable for use in harsh environments. The seal caps have a minimal influence on the strain development in the beam element sensing sections. The load cell has a low-en d capacity of 5 kg or less.
Patent CA-2499954-A1 (CA)
Title: Position estimation using a network of global-positioning receivers
Inventor: ZINOVIEV ALEXEI EUGENYEVICH
IPC: H04W64/00
Filed: 2003-09-23
Abstract: Disclosed are methods and apparatuses for determining the position of a roving receiver in a coordinate system using at least two base-station receivers (B1, B2), which are located at fixed and known positions within the coordinate system. The knowledge of the precise locations of the base-station receivers makes it possible to better account for one or all of carrier ambiguities, receiver time offsets, and atmospheric effects encountered by the rover receiver, and to thereby increase the accuracy of the estimated receiver position of the rover. Base lines are established between the rover and each base-station, and a base line is established between the base stations.  Navigation equations, which have known quantities and unknown quantities, are established for each baseline. Unknowns for the baseline between base stations are estimated, and then used to correlate and reduce the number of unknowns associated with rover baselines, thereby improving accuracy of the rover's estimated position.

Title: Patient carestation
Inventor: MACKIN MICHAEL H
IPC: A61G11/00
Filed: 2005-03-10
Abstract: A patient carestation for providing care to a patient including at least one environmental sensor sensing information concerning the environment surrounding the patient and providing electronic signals indicative of that environment. There are also physiological sensors sensing information relating to physiological conditions of the patient other than skin temperature and providing electronic signals indicative of physiological conditions of the patient. There may also be therapeutic sensors providing data based on therapy administered by peripheral apparatus and an input receiving patient information. A signal processor receives the signals from the physiological sensors, the environmental sensor, the therapeutic sensor and the patient information input and combines those signals into an integrated combination of signals for use by the caregiver. The integrated combination of signals can be used in a smart alarm or to generally appraise the caregiver at a central location as to the status of the patient.
