Title: Single mixed refrigerant gas liquefaction process
Inventor: DAUGHERTY TAMARA LYNN
IPC: B01D53/26
Filed: 2000-10-05
Abstract: A method of gas liquefaction wherein the refrigeration to cool and liquefy an essentially water-free feed gas is provided by a single recirculating mixed refrigerant cycle in which refrigeration is provided by the vaporization of two mixed refrigerant streams of different compositions at a lower and higher pressure levels respectively. A lower pressure level vaporizing refrigerant cools the feed gas stream in a first cooling zone and a higher pressure level vaporizing refrigerant further cools and condenses the cooled gas in a second cooling zone to provide the final liquid product. The lower pressure level vaporizing refrigerant is provided by one or more liquids obtained by ambient cooling of compressed mixed refrigerant vapor. The vaporized lower pressure level refrigerant can be returned to the refrigerant compressor at a temperature below ambient, without further warming, and this cool refrigerant is compressed and combined with the vaporized higher pressure level refrigerant, which is returned at about ambient temperature.
Patent CA-2322804-A1 (CA)
Title: Breast biopsy system and method
Inventor: LUBOCK PAUL
IPC: A61B17/32
Filed: 1999-03-02
Abstract: An apparatus and method are provided for precisely isolating a target lesion in a patient's body tissue, resulting in a high likelihood of "clean" margins about the lesion when it is removed for diagnosis and/or therapy. This approach advantageously will often result in the ability to both diagnose and treat a malignant lesion with only a single percutaneous procedure, with no follow-up percutaneous or surgical procedure required, while minimizing the risk of migration of possible cancerous cells from the lesion to surrounding tissue or the bloodstream. In particular, the apparatus comprises a biopsy instrument having a distal end adapted for entry into the patient's body, a longitudinal shaft, and a cutting element disposed along the shaft. The cutting element is actuatable between a radially retracted position and a radially extended position. Advantageously, the instrument is rotatable about its axis in the radially extended position to isolate a desired tissue specimen from surrounding tissue by defining a peripheral margin about the tissue specimen. Once the tissue specimen is isolated, it may be segmented by further manipulation of the cutting element, after which the tissue segments are preferably individually removed from the patient's body through a cannula or the like. Alternatively, the specimen may be encapsulated and removed as an intact piece.

Patent CA-2325802-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SANDERSON PETER
IPC: E04H4/12
Filed: 2000-11-17
Abstract: All known gas pool heaters connect between the filtering system and the jetting system. They also are designed to operate continuously throughout the swimming months to maintain the pool water temperature within a degree of the user's settings.   In this invention, the pool heater is corrected between the filter and the pool jetting system with a two-way valve. Rather than jetting the heated water through the normal jets of a pool which is on the top of the pool, this pool heater has a hose that is placed into the bottom of the pool and jets the hot water into the bottom of the pool. This system allows the user to send the water to either the pool jets or to the bottom of the pool. By sending the heated water to the bottom of the pool, there is a far more efficient transfer of heat between the pool water and the heated water because the heated water will not be effected by the outside wind and/or temperature and the pool will be heated from the bottom up (heat rises).   In this invention, the pool heater is designed to function with a simple barbecue gas tank rather than a full time hook-up to a gas line that decreases the cost of installation by approximately $ 800.00.   In this invention, the pool heater is designed only to heat the pool water on demand and not to continuously maintain the pool water at a specified temperature. By heating the water and using a thermal heating blanket on the pool surface, the pool heater will use far less gas than if operated continuously throughout the swimming months.

Abstract: A polymer dispersant for pigments based on an acrylic graft copolymer wherein the graft copolymer has a weight average molecular weight of 3,000-100,000 and comprises a polymeric backbone and macromonomer side chains attached to the backbone, wherein (1) the polymeric backbone is formed of polymerized ethylenically unsaturated monomers and (2) the side chains are macromonomers that are attached to the backbone at a single terminal point and are formed from polymerized ethylenically unsaturated monomers and have a weight average molecular weight of about 1,000-30,000 wherein the graft copolymer contains about 2 to 70% by weight, based on the weight of the graft copolymer, of polymerized ethylenically unsaturated monomers containing acetoacetate groups that are polymerized into the backbone, side chains, or both, and the acetoacetate groups are reacted with a primary amine to form a pendant acetoacetyl amine group on the graft copolymer which serves as the pigment anchoring group.      These materials are effective in dispersing and stabilizing a wide range of pigments in solvent based systems and are particularly useful in forming pigment dispersions that are used in a variety of solvent borne coating compositions for automobiles and trucks, where they provide improved efficiency of pigment use, lower paint viscosity, and reduced emission of volatile organic solvent.

Title: Battery pack latching assembly for fastener driving tool
Inventor: BUETOW ROBERT SCOTT
IPC: B25C1/00
Filed: 2001-10-23
Abstract: A battery pack latching or locking mounting system comprises a battery case, a cell pack disposed within the battery case, a battery cap or end closure, and a spacer which is longitudinally interposed between the cell pack and the battery cap or end closure. A first latching element or detent is mounted upon the spacer, and a second latching el-ement or detent is mounted upon the battery cap or end clo-sure. When the battery pack is initially mounted within the tool housing socket, the first latching element or detent of the spacer lockingly engages the single aperture defined within a side wall portion of the tool housing socket so as to lock the battery pack at its first OFF position or state.      When the battery pack is moved still further into the tool housing socket in the longitudinal direction so as to be moved to the second ON position or state, the second latch-ing element or detent of the battery cap or end closure en-gages the first latching element or detent of the spacer and causes the first latching element or detent of the spacer to be depressed radially inwardly so as to be disengaged from the single aperture defined within the side wall portion of the tool housing socket such that the first latching element or detent is able to be accommodated internally within tool housing socket. In addition, the second detent or latching element of the battery cap or end closure is now permitted to engage the single aperture defined within the side wall of the tool housing socket so as to lock or latch the bat-tery pack at the ON position or state with respect to the portable tool.

Title: Process for cooling solid and gaseous material during gasification of spent liquor
Inventor: NILSSON BENGT
IPC: D21C11/12
Filed: 2000-03-22
Abstract: Process for the recovery of chemicals and energy from spent liquor obtained in the chemical pulping process, in which the spent liquor is gasified under sub-stoichiometric conditions to produce partly one phase of solid and/or fused material, together with partly one phase of a flammable gaseous material, whereafter the said phases are cooled by direct contact with a cooling medium (9), is separated from the said phase of flammable gaseous material in order to be dissolved and collected up as a product liquid in a product liquid receiver (11). According to the invention, the said cooling medium (9) consists of an essentially water-free cooling medium, which after vaporizing/cracking increases the calorific value of the flammable gaseous material drawn off. At the same time, the process is improved in this way since the flammable gases can be used more effectively for the purpose of e.g. generating energy.
