Patent number: 11123445Abstract: A flexible brachytherapy device includes a bioresorbable carrier matrix structure comprising a plurality of radio-isotope particles and having opposite first and second surfaces. The bioresorbable carrier matrix structure degrades, when implanted at a wound site, at a rate such that the bioresorbable carrier matrix structure has a half-life that is longer than a half-life of the plurality of radio-isotope particles. A hydrophilic substrate located adjacent to the first surface of the bioresorbable carrier matrix structure degrades, when implanted at the wound site, at a rate faster than the bioresorbable carrier matrix structure. A hydrogel substrate located adjacent to the second surface of the bioresorbable carrier matrix structure shields radioactivity and degrades at a rate such that the hydrogel substrate has a half-life that is longer than the half-life of the plurality of radio-isotope particles.Type: GrantFiled: March 7, 2019Date of Patent: September 21, 2021Assignee: Margin-Clear Pty LtdInventors: David Burnett, Daniel Croagh, Mehrdad Nikfarjam

Publication number: 20200397929Abstract: A flexible brachytherapy device includes a bioresorbable carrier matrix structure comprising a plurality of radio-isotope particles and having opposite first surface and second surfaces. The bioresorbable carrier matrix structure degrades, when implanted at a wound site, at a rate substantially longer than a half-life of the plurality of radio-isotope particles. A hydrophilic substrate located adjacent to the first surface of the bioresorbable carrier matrix structure degrades, when implanted at the wound site, at a rate shorter than the bioresorbable carrier matrix structure to prevent migration of the device during the half-life of the plurality of radio-isotope particles. A hydrogel substrate located adjacent to the second surface of the bioresorbable carrier matrix structure shields radioactivity and degrades at a rate longer than the half-life of the plurality of radio-isotope particles.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 7, 2019Publication date: December 24, 2020Inventors: David Burnett, Daniel Croagh, Mehrdad Nikfarjam

Patent number: 8628324Abstract: A single burner snow melter is capable of a snow start. The burner assembly has a fuel burner having adjustable combustion output and a nozzle through which products of combustion emerge, and a combustion chamber which has a first portion in substantially air-tight communication with the fuel burner and which encloses the nozzle. A second portion of the combustion chamber is shaped and dimensioned such that the second portion is placed into a snow melting receptacle or pit. The combustion chamber has a plurality of directional discharge means formed at least on its second portion through which products of combustion from the fuel burner emerge, and thus agitate, and melt snow loaded into a tank or pit. The burner assembly also includes an air cooling assembly for supplying air to cool at least the first portion of the combustion chamber.Type: GrantFiled: June 16, 2009Date of Patent: January 14, 2014Assignee: Trecan Combustion LtdInventors: David Burnett, Glen Burnett, Steven Meredith
