Patent CA-2398517-A1 (CA)
Inventor: GERBER THOMAS
IPC: A61L27/56
Filed: 2001-01-25
Abstract: The invention relates to an inorganic resorbable bone substitute material based on calcium phosphates and to a method for producing the same. The material is characterized in that it comprises a loose crystal structure, i.e. the crystallites are not tightly connected as in a solid body (ceramic), but they are interconnected via only a few molecular groups. The volume which is occupied by collagen in natural bone is provided in the material as interconnecting pores in the nanometer range. A second pore size, also interconnecting and in the range of a few micrometers, permits collagen fibers to grow inside during tissue formation. These fibers are nucleators for the inserting biomineralization (formation of the endogenous biological apatite). The material contains a third interconnecting pore category which is modeled on the spongiosa and ranges from approximately 100 µm to 1000 µm. The invention also relates to a method for producing such a material which is characterized in that a highly viscous suspension of a sol of one or more oxides of the elements X (X = Al, Ca, Mg, P, Si, Ti, Zr) that is mixed with a crystalline powder is forced through a nozzle or a nozzle system and subsequently formed into any desired shape.  An open porous structure with a size corresponding to that of the filament diameters results by packing the fibers from the highly viscous suspension.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne une ligne (200) de transmission à fibre optique composite et un procédé qui apportent des avantages considérables. Cette ligne (200) de transmission à fibre optique composite comprend une fibre (202) monomode standard, telle qu'une fibre SMF-28, une fibre (204) à dispersion décalée, telle qu'une fibre NZSF, et une fibre (206) à dispersion compensée. Cette fibre monomode (202) reçoit un signal optique d'entrée à une première extrémité et génère un signal optique monomode à une seconde extrémité. La fibre (204) à dispersion décalée reçoit ce signal optique monomode à une première extrémité et génère un signal de sortie à une seconde extrémité. La fibre (206) à dispersion compensée reçoit ce signal optique de sortie et génère un signal optique compensé à dispersion chromatique qui, de préférence, est à un certain niveau de dispersion chromatique recherché. Dans un exemple, la dispersion chromatique résiduelle de la ligne de transmission à fibre optique composite est nulle ou presque et la pente de dispersion chromatique résiduelle de cette ligne (200) de transmission à fibre optique composite est nulle ou presque.

Title: Water-dispersible coating composition for fried foods and the like
Inventor: CARR D MICHAEL
IPC: A23L19/18
Filed: 2001-02-07
Abstract: A coating composition for foods contains high level of rice (e.g., as flour)  and dextrin, and little or no cornstarch, with the rice and dextrin componen ts on a percentage weight basis together comprising from about 25 % to 70 % of the total weight of the solids content of the coating composition, and ratio s of rice to dextrin between about 1.0:1 to 5:1. The high amounts of both rice  and dextrin substantially increase the coated product's crispness and holdin g time after either complete initial cooking or secondary reconstitution in conventional or microwave oven after limited initial cooking (e.g., parfryin g) and freezing, while maintaining excellent appearance, taste, tenderness, and  tooth compaction characteristics, and also are highly cost-advantageous. The  composition also may contain potato starch and seasonings, coloring agents, leavening agents, and stabilizing agents, and may be applied as a dry mix of  ingredients or in slurry form.

Abstract: A passport production system that is designed to personalize passports with the personal information of the intended holder of the passport, as well as an associated method of passport production. The passport production system is modular in construction, thereby readily permitting the assembly and reconfiguration of an application specific passport production system from different processing modules. Moreover, the modules permit the system to be reconfigured at the job site so as to add or remove modules as dictated by the changing needs of the application. In one embodiment, the system includes a leafing module (14) and a personalization module (16) for performing a personalization operation, such as laser personalization or printing on the passport. Documents other than passports can also be personalized using the system and method of this invention.

Title: Dog gone flies
Inventor: MCMURCHY JOANNE ALICE
IPC: A01N65/00
Filed: 2002-11-04
Abstract: Dog Gone Flies is an ointment that I have invented to try to help dogs with the terrible problem of flies eating at their ears during the warm months of the year. Because the tips of animal ears are thin fleshed, flies are attracted to this area and once blood is drawn, they continue to swarm the area causing infection and pain. As the owner/operator of an herb farm called Plenty of Thyme, I have the extensive knowledge of the properties that each herb exhibits. Using pur e petroleum jelly as my base, I incorporated the herbs that I researched to have the properties that repel flies. I quickly discovered that this ointment was very successful. It is also known to repel flies from any wounds and abrasions they may obtain. I clearly feel that it is marketable and woul d like the opportunity to share this product with Veterinarians etcetera.

Title: Video size conversion and transcoding from mpeg-2 to mpeg-4
Inventor: CHEN XUEMIN
IPC: G06T9/00
Filed: 2001-05-25
Abstract: A transcoder architecture that provides the lowest possible complexity with a small error, e.g., for converting an MPEG-2 bitstream into an MPEG-4 bitstream. The transcoder reads header information (304) from an input bitstream and provides a corresponding header in the new format for the output bitstream. In one embodiment (Fig. 3), a low complexity front-to-back transcoder (with B frames disabled) avoids the need for motion compensation processing. In another embodiment (Fig. 4), a transcoder architecture that minimizes drift error (with B frames enabled) is provided. In another embodiment (Fig. 5), a size transcoder (with B frames enabled) is provided, e.g., to convert a bitstream of ITU-R 601 interlaced video coding with MPEG-2 MP@ ML into a simple profile MPEG-4 bitstream which contains SIF progressive video suitable for a streaming video application. For spatial downscaling of field-mode DCT blocks, vertical and horizontal downscalling tehniques are combined to use sparse matrixes to reduce computations.

Filed: 2002-12-04
Abstract: The invention includes a process and components for making stamping dies from a set of mass produced metal blocks, each machined to size, each with dowel, counter bored and tapped holes machined along an Upper and Lower Machining Line. Blocks are of same thickness and width. Each successive block of a set increases in length by the length of the shortest block of the set. Individual blocks can be mounted directly onto the die-set. Blocks can also be assembled together. Machining pattern of holes in each block is such that when dowel holes align, counter bores of one block align with tapped holes of joining block.  All blocks are ready for final custom machining. A set of blocks is designed to accommodate strip widths within a given range. The result is a reduction in die-making time and cost.
