Title: Limiting peak electrical power drawn by mining excavators
Inventor: MAZUMDAR JOY
IPC: E02F9/20
Filed: 2009-06-19
Granted: 2015-04-16
Abstract: The maximum electrical power drawn from an electrical power source by a mining excavator comprising electric motors is reduced by supplying supplementary electrical power from an electrical energy storage unit. The input electrical power drawn by the mining excavator is cyclic. An upper limit is set for the electrical power drawn from the electrical power source. When the input electrical power drawn by the mining excavator exceeds the upper limit, electrical power is supplied by the electrical energy storage unit, such as an ultracapacitor bank. The ultracapacitor bank may be charged by the electrical power source during off-peak intervals. Electrical power generated by electrical motors operating in a regeneration interval may also be recaptured and stored in the electrical energy storage unit.

Title: Device and method for detection of humidity-compromised urine test strips
Inventor: ZIMMERLE CHRIS T
IPC: C12Q1/44
Filed: 2010-01-14
Granted: 2014-08-21
Abstract: The timing of the reaction of moisture-sensitive reagents for detecting the presence of analytes, e.g. leukocytes in urine samples, is used to detect when the reagents have been compromised by excess humidity. The ratio of light reflectance at wavelengths characteristic of the products of reaction between the reagents and the analyte and an infra-red reference dye is measured at two preset times after a urine sample has been applied to a test strip and used to determine whether the reagents have been compromised by excessive humidity. The presence of unusually dark samples is determined from the reflected light at 470 and 625 nm in order to confirm that the test strips are humidity-compromised.

Title: Calculating cardiovascular parameters
Inventor: HATIB FERAS
IPC: A61B5/02
Filed: 2010-02-03
Granted: 2016-04-07
Abstract: Methods for measuring a cardiovascular parameter in a subject regardless of whether the subject is experiencing normal hemodynamic or abnormal hemodynamic conditions are described. These methods involve the determination of whether a subject is experiencing normal hemodynamic conditions or abnormal hemodynamic conditions, then applying an appropriate model to subject data to determine a cardiovascular parameter for the subject.. Multivariate Boolean models are used to establish if the subject is experiencing normal hemodynamic or abnormal hemodynamic conditions, then multivariate statistical models are used to calculate the appropriate cardiovascular parameter. Having correct cardiovascular parameters for a subject experiencing abnormal hemodynamic conditions, for example, enables the calculation of accurate values for treatment relevant parameters, such as, cardiac output and stroke volume.

Abstract: COLLAPSIBLE LIGHT 5 A collapsible lighting device (101) has a main body (301) surrounded by a collar (109) whose position is adjustable along the longitudinal axis of the main body (301). Pivotally connected or hinged legs (309) are attached to the collar (109) and to the main body (301) with struts (310). When the collar (109) is on one position, the legs (309) deploy outward from the main body (301) to the extent permitted by the struts (310), io thereby allowing the legs (309) to support the collapsible lighting device (101) upright. A lamp head (107) is attached to a member (611) which telescope from the main body (301). When deployed, the lamp head (107) can be switched on to provide illumination. When the collar (109) is another position, the legs (309) are drawn in toward the main body (301) to form a cylindrical shape. The lamp head (107) can be positioned so that is when the telescoping members (611) is retracted into the main body (301), the collar (109) surrounds the exterior the lamp head (107), thus protecting the lamp head (107) for transport. The overall cylindrical shape of the lighting device (101) in the collapsed position facilitates transport, for example using a strap to carry the device on one's back. -319 310 303 309
