Patent number: 7289699Abstract: An optical channel waveguide having a reflection grating and a related method for its fabrication. The grating is apodized to provide a desired reflection or transmission spectral characteristic, by varying the grating width along the length of the grating in the direction of light propagation. The grating has multiple parallel elements extending across the waveguide channel width, and apodization is effected by appropriate selection of the width of each element relative to the width of the channel, without varying the grating duty cycle or other parameters.Type: GrantFiled: April 29, 2004Date of Patent: October 30, 2007Assignee: Northrop Grumman CorporationInventors: Richard L. Davis, James G. Ho, Akhil R. Shah, Thomas J. Jung, Terrance T. Lam

Patent number: 7270889Abstract: A bonded structure including one or more substrates bonded together with a tackified amorphous poly-alpha-olefin adhesive composition. One method of making such a bonded structure is carried out by applying a tackified amorphous poly-alpha-olefin adhesive composition to one or more substrates at a temperature of about 170 degrees Celsius or lower, and joining the substrates to themselves or to one another. The bonded structure has a dynamic peel strength between about 400 and about 1000 grams per 25 millimeters. The bonding efficiency of the bonded structure renders the bonded structure suitable for incorporation into a variety of articles, including personal care products, health/medical products, and household/industrial product, for example.Type: GrantFiled: November 4, 2003Date of Patent: September 18, 2007Assignee: Kimberly-Clark Worldwide, Inc.Inventors: Stephen Michael Campbell, Daniel William Hesse, Richard D.

Patent number: 6912766Abstract: An air conditioner includes an outdoor section comprising an outdoor coil, a fan, and a refrigerant compressor housed within a cabinet. The cabinet includes an outer wrapper supported by a plastic base. The base and wrapper include features that facilitate the cabinet's assembly and shipping, enhance its appearance, and ensure its functional and structural integrity. For example, the base includes breakaway shipping tabs, lead-ins that help guide the wrapper and coil into position during assembly, and snaps that help hold the wrapper in place with a minimal number of screws. The wrapper includes watertight screw-receiving dimples for mounting electrical hardware, side panels that interconnect by way of a novel vertically sliding fit, and a spacer for protecting the coil from being crushed by the wrapper. A frame that supports the fan also supports the cabinet's top cover.Type: GrantFiled: November 21, 2003Date of Patent: July 5, 2005Assignee: American Standard International Inc.Inventors: Michael E. Wendt, Benjamin F. Hudgens, Hans J. Jung, Douglas S. Burleson, Billy W. Norrell, Jeffrey L. Stewart, Richard S. Kilgo, Jose L. Balderrama, Jay E. Field, Danny D. Beaver

Patent number: 6725081Abstract: A device and method for precisely delivering dosage of radiation from a radiation source to a treatment site of a vessel is provided herein. In one embodiment, the device includes a catheter which inserts into a vessel lumen of the body. The catheter includes an adjuster section for altering a portion of the radiation emitting radially from the radiation source so that the radiation source delivers an asymmetrical radiation profile to the vessel. The device can also include a catheter supporter which inhibits rotational deformation in the catheter between a catheter distal end and a catheter proximal end. This allows the delivery section to be precisely rotated to properly position the adjuster section within the vessel lumen.Type: GrantFiled: June 6, 2001Date of Patent: April 20, 2004Assignees: Volcano Therapeutics, Inc., The Cleveland Clinic FoundationInventors: Jay P.

Patent number: 6696121Abstract: A method for forming a balloon for a dilation catheter is provided herein. The method includes the steps of: (i) positioning a tube in a preconditioned mold; (ii) expanding the tube in a preconditioned mold to form a parison; (iii) positioning the parison in a balloon mold; and (iv) expanding the parison within the balloon mold to form the balloon. Thus, the tube is initially expanded into a parison in the preconditioned mold. Subsequently, the parison is expanded into a balloon in the balloon mold. Because of this unique manufacturing process, polyester block copolymers can be formed into balloons. Some of these polyester block copolymers could not be formed into a balloon using prior art blow molding processes. The resulting balloon exhibits superior characteristics, including relatively thin and consistent walls, soft texture, low uninflated crossing profile, expansion in a predictable fashion, and good tensile strength.Type: GrantFiled: July 27, 2001Date of Patent: February 24, 2004Assignee: Abbott Laboratories Vascular Enterprises LimitedInventors: Eugene J. Jung, Jr., Leo R. Roucher, Jr.

Patent number: 6626816Abstract: A delivery device and method for delivering a dosage of radiation from a radiation source to a treatment site of a vessel is provided herein. The delivery device includes a catheter and a delivery area. The catheter is suitable for being inserted into a vessel lumen of the vessel and includes a delivery lumen for receiving the radiation source. The delivery area also receives the radiation source. The delivery area includes an attenuator section for attenuating a portion of the radiation emitting from the radioactive area so that the delivery area emits an eccentric radiation profile. The delivery device can also include a catheter supporter which inhibits rotational deformation in the catheter between a catheter distal end and a catheter proximal end. This allows the delivery area to be precisely rotated to properly position the attenuator section within the vessel lumen.Type: GrantFiled: July 12, 2000Date of Patent: September 30, 2003Assignees: Jomed Inc., The Cleveland Clinic FoundationInventors: Jay P.

Publication number: 20020072732Abstract: A swivel tip assembly (100) includes a housing (110) having a passageway (128) with proximal (112) and distal (114) openings. Spherical member (106) and bushing (108), which is captured by the housing (110), provide a swivel joint. A wire (102), which is coupled to the spherical member (106), is attached to the distal end of a catheter (50). The swivel joint allows the housing (110) to swivel or rotate freely thereby minimizing the opportunity of grabbing the guide wire (116) as the catheter (504) is being pushed or pulled along the guide wire (116).Type: ApplicationFiled: September 17, 2001Publication date: June 13, 2002Inventors: Eugene J.
