Patent number: 10384368Abstract: A contoured rake face cutting tool and method of making is disclosed. A rotary cutting tool with a plurality of teeth can cause damage to a work piece during cutting. By orienting the cutting angle of the teeth relative to the rotational central axis to high shear angle such as 50 or 70 degrees, the tool creates a high compression cut which is cleaner and less damaging to the work piece. The cutting surface itself is profiled, i.e. non-planar, such as concave or convex or other non planar shape, which is preferably formed into an ultra-hard material which is supplied for use in a planar form.Type: GrantFiled: July 26, 2016Date of Patent: August 20, 2019Assignee: Saber Diamond Tools Inc.Inventors: David Grover Freund, Martin Bradley Neagu, Gregory Edmon Privette

Patent number: 6266566Abstract: An apparatus and method for normalizing waveform information displayed on a medical device. This waveform normalization allows the user to quickly adjust individual waveforms if they exceed the normal viewing range on the display. An electrogram signal is received from an implantable medical device. The electrogram signal is continuously transformed into a plurality of voltage data samples. A waveform is created from the plurality of voltage data samples, and the waveform is displayed on a medical display device. A user selectable waveform normalization control is located adjacent each displayed waveform on the medical display device. Upon activation of the waveform normalization control, the adjacent waveform is normalized to a pre-determined nominal height on the display.Type: GrantFiled: May 21, 1999Date of Patent: July 24, 2001Assignee: Medtronic, Inc.Inventors: Timothy J. Nichols, Paul Blowers, A. Martin Bradley, Robert Werner

Patent number: 6161039Abstract: The present invention relates to a graphical display method and apparatus representing an electrogram signal received from at least one lead used in conjunction with an implantable medical device. The present invention provides a time-expanded waveform of a portion of a signal relating to a single heartbeat. Sensitivity threshold information is also graphically displayed on the waveform. The programmer assembly of the present invention comprises an analyzer for locating and marking desired characteristics of an electrogram signal received from at least one lead position within a passageway of a heart. The analyzer produces a marked electrogram signal. A processor receives the marked electrogram signal from the analyzer and recognizes the marked desired characteristics of the electrogram signal. A display, controlled by the processor, displays information representing a portion of the electrogram signal adjacent to the marked desired characteristics of the electrogram signal.Type: GrantFiled: May 21, 1999Date of Patent: December 12, 2000Assignee: Medtronic, Inc.Inventors: Jack P. Krichen, A. Martin Bradley, Robert Werner, Paul Blowers, Timothy Lacroix

Patent number: 5294648Abstract: A binder composition for producing articles of bonded particulate material such as foundry molds or core comprises an alkaline aqueous solution of a resol phenol-aldehyde resin, an oxyanion which can form a stable complex with the resin, and an ethylene glycol monoalkyl ether. The binder composition has an alkali to phenol molar ratio of from 1.5:1 to 2.5:1 and the amount of alkali present in the solution is sufficient to substantially prevent stable complex formation between the resin ad the oxyanion. Bonded articles are produced by passing carbon dioxide gas through articles formed from a mixture of particulate material and the binder composition so as to produce stable complex formation and curing of the resin.Type: GrantFiled: January 4, 1993Date of Patent: March 15, 1994Assignee: Foseco International LimitedInventors: Garry Smith, Martin Bradley

Patent number: 4451329Abstract: This invention pertains to a method and a composition for selectively etching an image on a glass surface to produce decorative frosting effects. More particularly, the method pertains to: depositing on the surface the negative of the image to be etched, a pattern of a crosslinkable resin capable, upon crosslinking, of resisting a subsequently applied etchant and also capable, upon crosslinking, of being removed from said surface by stripping with hot water or steam treatment; crosslinking said resin; applying an etchant to said surface; and removing said crosslinked resin. More particularly, the composition pertains to the combination of an acrylate oligomer, an acrylate monomer capable of crosslinking with said acrylate oligomer, and a crosslinking agent.Type: GrantFiled: August 22, 1983Date of Patent: May 29, 1984Assignee: Wheaton IndustriesInventors: Gary R.
