Abstract: A two part therapeutic intra-oral mandibular appliance is provided with single adjustment means facilitating mandibular protrusion or retrusion to a desired position while the appliance is being worn. To this end there is provided separate upper and lower U-shaped arches, each having a front section, two side sections, a top surface and bottom surface. The top surface of the upper arch and the bottom surface of the lower arch are respectively configured to receivingly engage at least some of a user's upper and lower teeth. The bottom surface of at least an anterior portion of the front section of the upper arch is recessed along a transverse step relative to the remainder of the bottom surface of the upper arch. A post is centrally located in the front section of the lower arch and is designed to extend upwardly from the top surface of the lower arch into the recessed front section of the upper arch.    The adjustment means for selectively varying the distance between the post and the step and which results in the advancement or retraction of a wearer's mandible, comprises an elongate rod one end of which is threadedly interconnected to a bore extending through the post, and the other end of which abuts the step. The rod can be accessed for rotation while the appliance is being worn by inserting drive means such as a screwdriver into the bore so as to drivingly engage the one end of the rod threadedly connected to the post.

Abstract: A solution packaging system (10) is disclosed. One embodiment of the solution packaging system of the present invention comprises a gas-impermeable dual-chamber bag (15) , having a first chamber (30) and a second chamber (35) separated by a frangible (releasable) seal (25) , and an over-wrap member (20) enclosing and containing the dual-chamber inner bag. The dual-chamber bag can be used to package two-part medicinal solutions containing bicarbonate, such as ophthalmic irrigation solutions. The over-wrap member can serve as a dust cover and need not be a moisture or gas barrier, as the dual-chamber inner bag will have sufficient gas barrier properties to minimize the loss of CO2 from the first part of the solution (e.g., the bicarbonate) . The dual-chamber bag can be fitted with an administration port (110) , and sealed with a stopper and an aluminum crimp seal. The dual-chamber bag can further comprise fill-ports (100) to fill each chamber. The fill port openings can be sealed after filling the chambers and the fill ports cut from the dual-chamber bag. The frangible seal between the chambers of the embodiments of this invention can be broken by the end user to mix and reconstitute the two parts of the solution prior to use.

Title: Regulating access to digital content
Inventor: PATTERSON PATRICK E
IPC: G06Q20/12
Filed: 1999-05-14
Abstract: Digital content such as text, video, and music are stored as part of a compressed and encrypted data file, or object, at a client computer, such as a personal home computer. The content is inaccessible to a user until a payment or use authorization occurs. Payment or use authorization occurs via a real-time, transparent authorization process whereby the user enters account or use data at the client computer, the account or use data is transmitted to a payment server computer, the account or use data is preprocessed at the payment server computer and if payment Information is required and is present, the payment information is transmitted to a payment authorization center. The payment authorization center approves or rejects the payment transaction, and bills the corresponding account. The authorization center then transmits an authorization signal to the payment server computer indicating whether the transaction was approved and if not, which information was deficient. In response, the payment server computer transmits a token to the client computer, and if the token indicates approval, an installation process is initiated at the client computer whereby the object is activated and locked to the particular client computer. The object can be reopened and reused at any time on that particular computer. If the object is transmitted or copied to a different computer, the required payment or use information must again be tendered for access to the content.

Title: Locking bone plates with controlled locking screw misalignment
Inventor: DELL OCA ALBERTO FERNANDEZ
IPC: A61B17/17
Filed: 2007-03-28
Abstract: A bone plate system for fixing bone fractures includes a locking bone plate (2) and a conicalIy- shaped drilling sleeve (15). The bone plate has at least one threaded hole (3), and with the drilling sleeve screwed into the bone plate hole, a drill bit (7) guided through the sleeve drills a hole into bone having a central axis angularly misaligned with the central axis of the bone plate hole. The angle between the drilled hole's central axis and the bone plate hole's central axis is equal to or less than the tolerance angle of the threads of the bone plate hole. This allows a bone plate screw (6) to be imperfectly seated with respect to the bone plate hole and still screwed into the hole to lock the plate without jamming the screw head into the plate hole, while still allowing the screw to be screwed out if needed.
