20100312263 | METHODS AND DEVICES FOR CUTTING AND ABRADING TISSUE - The present invention provides an atherectomy catheter which has a cutting element that is able to cut both soft tissue and hard tissue, and methods of cutting material from a blood vessel lumen using a rotating cutting element. The cutting element has a sharp cutting edge that surrounds a cup-shaped surface and at least one surface of abrasive material. The cup-shaped surface directs the cut material into a tissue chamber. The cutting edge and the cup-shaped surface together are well suited to cut and remove relatively soft tissue from the blood vessel. The abrasive material surface in combination with the cutting element is well suited to abrade and remove hard material from the blood vessel. | 12-09-2010 |

20090113985 | FLUID FLOW MEASURING AND PROPORTIONAL FLUID FLOW CONTROL DEVICE - Embodiments disclosed herein provide restrictive-flow flow measurement devices, valve improvements and signal control devices and processes that control the flow of liquids, including control processes for single-liquid calibration. In some embodiments, a fluid flow device can be calibrated using a single standard calibration fluid. The fluid flow of a first fluid through a flow meter is measured by calculating a first pressure difference between pressures sensed by two pressure sensors of the flow meter. The fluid flow of a second fluid through the flow meter is measured by calculating a second pressure difference between pressures sensed by the same two pressure sensors. A calibration coefficient is determined based upon the relationship between the flow rate, the fluid density and the calculated pressure difference for the first and second fluids. A relationship between the calibration coefficient and the kinematic viscosity of each fluid is then determined and stored. | 05-07-2009 |
20100236643 | System and Method for Flow Monitoring and Control - One embodiment of the present invention can include a flow control device that comprises an inlet, an outlet in fluid communication with the inlet, a pressure sensor, which may or may not be the only pressure sensor of the fluid control device, and a controller coupled to the pressure sensor. The controller can be configured to generate a valve control signal based on a measured pressure at a single pressure sensor. | 09-23-2010 |

20130068803 | Skate Boot Clamp To Aid In The Tying Of Laces Tightly On Ice And Roller Skates - This clamp facilitates the firm tying of ice and roller skates by clamping the two sides of the skate boot and holding them. This makes it easy for children and adults to produce a more uniform tightness while reducing hand fatigue and string-burn. By reducing the friction normally caused by the yanking of strings through the eyelets, string life will be prolonged. An alternate use of this clamp is to facilitate the firm tying of other clothing items with laces. Another alternative use of this clamp is to facilitate the firm tying of other non-clothing items with laces. | 03-21-2013 |

20150345247 | Hydraulic Fracturing Ball Sealers - A hydraulic fracturing ball sealer used in fracturing of shale formations. A preferred embodiment is constructed of a generally spherical core and a pair of hemispherical shells positioned about the core. The shells are secured to each other along an equatorial seam. The multilayer frac-ball provides a strong but machinable structure with a pliable outer surface that is corrosion resistant, has a specific gravity that allows it to float in the fracturing fluid, and is relatively easy and inexpensive to manufacture. The frac-ball of the present invention is a two piece metal and polymer design. A two-part embodiment comprises a polymer core with a metal case or shell. A layer of epoxy resin may be used to secure the shell to the core. Alternate embodiments include multiple layers of different materials, generally arranged concentrically within the spherical shape. The surface of the frac-ball may be smooth, scored, or serrated. | 12-03-2015 |

20130337135 | APPARATUSES FOR PRODUCING FOOD PRODUCTS FROM FISH AND CHICKEN SHIMS AND ASSOCIATED SYSTEMS AND METHODS - Food processing apparatuses and associated methods are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a fish processing apparatus includes two sets of the shim magazines on the opposite sides of mold(s) for making food products. Food shuttles alternate in transporting food shims from their corresponding shim magazines to a position under the mold(s). An actuator presses the mold(s) against the food shim to form food products. The force of the mold(s) can be controlled to improve separation of the food products from the food shim. Formed food products fall on a conveyor, which transports them away from the apparatus for further processing. | 12-19-2013 |

20140270665 | LARGE CORE MULTIMODE OPTICAL FIBERS - The specification describes multimode optical fibers produced by improved methods that reduce the manufacturing cost. These methods may also be more efficient in terms of power loss. In one of the embodiments, the improved design has a large core of pure silica derived from a rod-in-tube method. In the embodiment, a down-doped cladding is produced by depositing fluorine-doped silica on the inside of a silica starting tube using isothermal radio frequency plasma deposition. The silica core is inserted and the starting tube collapsed. The silica starting tube is removed and optical fiber is drawn from the fluorine-doped glass coated silica rod. | 09-18-2014 |
20160023939 | ISOTHERMAL PLASMA CVD SYSTEM FOR REDUCED TAPER IN OPTICAL FIBER PREFORMS - A chemical vapor deposition (CVD) system is configured to reduce the presence of geometrical and optical taper at the end sections of the preform, or more generally controlling the axial profile of the fabricated optical fiber preform. The system is configured to create an isothermal plasma within the substrate tube, with a relatively confined deposition zone located upstream of the plasma. A reagent delivery system is configured to adjust the composition and concentration of the introduced species in sync with the movement of the plasma and deposition zone within the substrate tube. By synchronizing the movement of the plasma with the adjustable reagent delivery system, it is possible to provide precision control of the axial profile of the created optical fiber preform. | 01-28-2016 |
