Inventor: DICKSON JOHNNY
IPC: A62B35/00
Filed: 2020-04-16
Abstract: A load lowering descent controller having a fixed cylindrical body or capstan about which a rope or cable is turned. The descent controller allows for lowering of the load at a controlled rate by adjusting the amount of friction between the controller and the rope or cable as a function of rope or cable turning and relative contact with rope or cable engagement surfaces in the controller. The fixed cylindrical body or capstan is surrounded by a vented sleeve to prevent the rope from becoming heated and to prevent the user from being injured.

Title: Polylactide-based masterbatch, for a commercially viable single-step in-mold annealing injection molding process
Inventor: MANJURE SHILPA
IPC: C08J3/22
Filed: 2020-05-13
Abstract: Polylactide (PLA) parts can be crystallized via two procedures. In the first procedure, i.e. a 2-step post-mold annealing process, the complete crystallization of PLA parts can be done after molding in a secondary operation called as post-mold annealing to make higher heat-resistant PLA parts. There are limitations to this 2-step operation, namely, a) warpage of parts with complex geometries, and b) scaling up higher production volume times. In the second procedure, i.e. 1-step in-mold annealing process, the complete crystallization of PLA parts can be done in the mold itself by holding the temperature of the mold at the crystallization temperature of PLA which is about 100°C. The 1-step in-mold annealing process using a masterbatch blended with neat PLA results in a highly crystalline article produced in a significantly lower cycle time.

Title: Managing a group of physical uplink control channel resources
Inventor: ZHOU YAN
IPC: H04W72/12
Filed: 2020-05-22
Abstract: In an embodiment, a base station determines a spatial relationship for a group of PUCCH resources, and transmits a control message that indicates the spatial relationship to a UE. The UE receives the control message and stores an indication of the spatial relationship. In some designs, the control message conveying the spatial relationship identifies the group of PUCCH resources via the PUCCH group index, while in other designs a different identification mechanism may be used. In another embodiment, a base station determines an association between a group of PUCCH resources and a PUCCH group index, and transmits a control message that indicates the association to a UE. The UE receives the control message and stores an indication of the association.

Title: Systems and methods to detect cardiac events
Inventor: STEPHENS PHILIP
IPC: A61B5/024
Filed: 2020-07-30
Abstract: In some embodiments, features related to inter-beat intervals (IBI) detected by a PPG sensor of a wearable device are extracted and provided to a cardiovascular classifier in order to detect likely instances of a cardiac condition such as atrial fibrillation. Some embodiments use features related to the entropy of the IBI data to improve the predictions generated by the cardiovascular classifier. In some embodiments, co-information between the IBI data and IBI data gathered from healthy and AF populations is determined in order to derive features that represent the probability that a given sample of IBI data represents AF or a normal sinus rhythm. In response to determining likely instances of AF based on these features, the wearable device may obtain clinically acceptable data, such as an ECG, to be transmitted to a separate device for review by a clinician.

Abstract: An extrusion system (100) according to certain aspects includes at least one infrared emitting device (102) arranged in a generally cylindrical shape with a hollow interior. The at least one infrared emitting device (102) is positioned downstream of an outlet of an extrusion die (110) to irradiate a perimeter of wet extrudate material in a uniform manner to form stiffened wet extrudate material (116) before such material is received by an extrudate support channel (118). The at least one infrared emitting device (102) generally uniformly stiffens the skin of the wet extrudate material (116) to resist mechanical deformation of the extrudate material during subsequent handling steps. Such skin stiffening allows for increased tolerance of handling forces and permits extrusion of softer wet extrudate material without compromising the shape of a fired ceramic product.

Abstract: A patient external controller is provided for controlling sub-perception stimulation provided by a patient's implantable stimulator device having an electrode array. Control circuitry in the controller renders a graphical user interface (GUI), including a location at which the sub-perception stimulation is provided within the electrode array, and a pre-defined region in which the location can be moved. The pre-defined region may be constrained to less than the entire electrode array. The control circuitry receives one or more first inputs to move the location of the sub-perception stimulation within the region and to program the stimulator to move the sub-perception stimulation to the moved location in the electrode array. The control circuitry can enable adjustment of an amplitude of the sub-perception stimulation to a value that is less than or equal to a perception threshold. Once moved, the sub-perception stimulation can be stored as a second stimulation program.
