Abstract: The present invention relates to a removable intra-oral corrective anti-snoring device. The device is made of wire or band material provided with suitable elasticity and rigidity, including at least a fixer, an upper force piece and/or lower force piece. The device is mostly applied on upper jaw. The force end of the upper force piece is designed to be suitable to the normal configuration of the soft palate, and acts on the portion in front of the sensitive region of the soft palate to raise up the soft palate and uvula upward/upward and backward without causing nausea and discomfort of peripheral tissue. The force end of the lower force piece is designed to be suitable to the normal configuration of the tongue, and acts on the portion in front of the sensitive region of the posterior of the tongue to press the tongue downward without causing discomfort and nausea. Thus, the blocked respiratory tract could be expanded to prevent snore and sleep apnoea syndrome is remitted without discomfort.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un type de granules de graphite améliorés et leur procédé de fabrication. Chacun des ces granules améliorés comprend un granule de graphite non amélioré dont les propriétés électrochimiques nécessitent une amélioration, et une membrane de carbone amorphe enveloppant ledit granule de graphite non amélioré. L'épaisseur de ladite membrane se situe entre 0.05 µm et 1 µm. Le procédé de fabrication desdits granules de graphite améliorés consiste à immerger les granules de graphite non améliorés dans une solution polymère de modification de surface, à les agiter, séparer, filtrer, puis solidifier et carboniser. Lesdits granules de graphite améliorés, quand on les utilise en tant qu'électrodes négatives d'une pile rechargeable au lithium, permettent d'obtenir une pile possédant d'excellentes caractéristiques électriques, une capacité spécifique réversible élevée, une durée de vie longue et pouvant répondre aux critères de performance de piles rechargeables. La technologie de fabrication de ces granules est simple. Leur coût de production est bas. Il est facile, par conséquent, de mettre en oeuvre cette technologie à des fins de production de masse.

Abstract: A load cell reacts to an applied force by displacing a physical component of the load cell. An electrical component of the load cell produces an electromagnetic (EM) field in response to an applied radio frequency signal. The physical component is located in proximity to the EM field, and perturbs the EM field without physically contacting said electrical component structure. A displacement of the physical component results in a change to the perturbation of the EM field. A monitoring circuit of the load monitors an output signal that is affected by change to the perturbation of the EM field, and thereby detects the applied load.

Abstract: A high energy, e.g., ultraviolet (UV), catalyzed decomposing foam encapsulating a payload to be boosted in space provides an ultra-light weight, adaptable means to facilitate survival of much lighter, smaller satellites and space hardware under boost environment. The decomposable foam is to contain multiple satellites within a booster payload in lieu of the traditionally heavy and complex structural framework. The catalyzed decomposing foam significantly lowers the weight and structure of all space hardware. This packaging system is especially beneficial where several or even hundreds of satellites are required for a constellation system, thereby significantly benefiting all technologies applied in space, ranging from the telecommunication industry to DOD applications. In addition to weight and cost savings, advantages of this foam are many in that it is adaptable to any payload shape as it may be injected, sprayed, formed, molded, easily cut or manufactured to support any geometry required.

Abstract: A reverse patch for undoing a forward patch for obtaining a new binary image from an old binary image is generated in two parts. First a reverse index file is generated when the forward patch is created at a host or server. The reverse index file identifies regions of similarity between the old binary image and the new binary image. The reverse index file is transmitted with the forward patch to an electronic device. Second, while applying the forward patch to obtain the new binary image from the old binary image, the electronic device generates the reverse patch based upon the new binary image, the old binary image, and the reverse index file. The forward patch and reverse patch may both be incremental patches. Incremental patches are generated and applied on a sector-by-sector basis.

Abstract: A system and method for providing early detection of encrypted signals within a secure connection for voice over Internet protocol (VoIP). The system and method includes a non-complex, in-band, and early encryption detector within the voice path. A transmitter sends out a known pattern. Based upon the received pattern, the receiver decides whether its encryption capabilities match up with those of the transmitter. If the capabilities do not match, then the receiver waits for the signalling message for the correct mode of operation. No packets are utilized until the receiver and transmitter encryption capabilities are matched.
