Abstract: An electrical connector system (10) includes a flat flexible circuit (56) having
at least one pin-receiving hole (60) therein, and a printed circuit board (14) having at
least one pin-receiving hole (46b) therein aligned with the hole in the flat flexible

Abstract: The present invention relates to a combination weighing
apparatus for selecting a combination of some of weighing hoppers (6i)
accommodating therein articles that have been supplied thereto, which
combination results in a combination calculated value (Wc) of measured
weights of the articles (M) contained in some of the weighing hoppers (6i)
forming the combination, falling within a predetermined combination
tolerance, and for subsequently discharging the articles (M) in the selected
weighing hoppers (6i). In accordance with a condition of a flow of the
articles (M) on a falling route downstream of the combination weighing
apparatus (1), discharge timing for discharging the articles (M) from the
hoppers (6i) is automatically changed among the hoppers (6i). It is
thereby possible to promptly detect abnormality in the flow of the articles
and to maintain the high operativity and productivity (yield) of the
combination weighing apparatus (1).

Abstract: Methods and devices for continuous electrochemically suppressed ion
chromatography are disclosed. In preferred aspect of the invention, a chromatography
effluent comprising analyte ions and electrolyte is split into a first chromatography
effluent flow stream and a second chromatography effluent flow stream. Electrolysis
ions selected from the group consisting of hydronium ions and hydroxide ions are
generated by the electrolysis of water. Electrolysis ions of the same charge as the
electrolyte and the second chromatography effluent stream are flowed through a
stationary phase thereby suppressing the electrolyte in the second chromatography
effluent flow stream. The analyte ions are subsequently detected in the suppressed

Abstract: A method and system for processing an enterprise's incoming
customer communications on the basis of the enterprise's business objectives. An
enterprise service balancer distributes work based upon enterprise resources and
immediate resource availability. The enterprise service balancer provides an
instantaneous best possible service for a customer communication ( e.g. , a call) by
matching the customer communication with the most appropriate available resource
in the enterprise, as a whole, in accordance with the enterprise's definition of best
service. The enterprise service balancer may refrain from moving media for a
customer communication to an identified resource until after determining that the
identified resource accepts the customer communication for further processing. The
enterprise service balancer looks for an enterprise resource having a specific skills set
when the enterprise receives a customer communication requiring the specific skills
set. The enterprise service balancer operates in conjunction with enterprise resources
as diverse as call center agents, back office agents, and robotic call processing
applications. The back office agents, such as technical staff members, represent
persons who do not typically handle customer communications. The robotic call
processing system may operate in conjunction with an interactive voice response
("IVR") system or other such robotic system appropriate for the communications
media. The enterprise service balancer may process customer communications
arriving via media such as telephony, e-mail, video kiosk, and an internet.

Abstract: This invention refers to a device for occluding the ovarian pathway of a female body. In one embodiment, vascularized tissue (36) grows into a plug, and prevents or discourages formation of scar tissue around the plug. Another embodiment with a relatively small foam pore size encourages formation of a vascularized capsule (38) around the plug. The presence of this vascularized capsule limits the patient's foreign body response, so that the capsule does not constrict around the plug. In one embodiment, a catheter (51) is designed for wounding the epithelial layer of the uterus tubal junction. The catheter can be used to form a long yet shallow lesion in the uterus tubal junction.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et des compositions destinés à augmenter la biodisponibilité dans le cerveau de compositions transportées par le sang, ce procédé consistant à administrer une composition spécifique, tout en accroissant les taux de monoxyde d'azote dans le cerveau, ce que l'on obtient en stimulant la production accrue de monoxyde d'azote par des monoxyde d'azote synthases endothéliales, notamment en administrant de la L-arginine, en administrant des agents augmentant les taux de monoxyde d'azote, indépendamment de ces synthases de cellules endothéliales, ou en administrant une quelconque combinaison de ces procédés. Par suite de l'augmentation du monoxyde d'azote, le débit sanguin cérébral s'accroît en conséquence et les médicaments présents dans le flux sanguin sont transportés par ce débit accru dans les tissus cérébraux. Grâce à ce débit accru, le site d'action est exposé à plus de molécules de médicament, la stimulation d'une production accrue de monoxyde d'azote facilitant l'apport de médicaments qui ne sont pas facilement introduits dans le cerveau, et/ou permettant de réduire la teneur sérique nécessaire pour obtenir les effets physiologiques souhaités.

Abstract: The present invention is organized about the concept of providing an improved pawl brake assembly for use in electromechanical devices such as all electric motors or solenoids. For example, the improved pawl brake assembly (50) may be used for braking the rotor assembly (26) upon de-energization of the motor (2). The pawl brake assembly comprises a pawl arm (52) and a brake portion (56). The pawl brake assembly employs electromagnetic principles to reduce the  noise and metal fatigue caused by the undesired excess vibrational motion of a pawl arm when a motor is energized. The novel use of a magnet (80) disposed upon the pawl arm of a pawl brake assembly provides a simple, elegant, and inexpensive solution to the identified noise and metal fatigue problems.

Abstract: A device (32) determines the location of a fault in an underground cable causing an earth leakage path from an internal conductor to earth at the location of the fault, such that when a signal is applied to the conductor, an earth leakage signal flows between the earth and conductor at the location of the fault. A multi-frequency signal is applied to the cable, this having at least two frequency components. Probes (24a, 24b) are positionable to receive the earth leakage signal. A processor (50) rectifies a first component of the earth leakage signal, corresponding to one frequency component of the applied signal, multiplies the rectified first component of the earth leakage signal with a second component of the earth linkage signal, corresponding to another frequency component of the applied signal, and from the result of that multiplication indicates the direction from the device to the fault.
