Title: Systems and methods for harvesting, storing, and implanting hair grafts
Inventor: OOSTMAN CLIFFORD A JR
IPC: A61B10/02
Filed: 2008-08-21
Abstract: A system and method for harvesting, storing, and implanting biological units, in particular hair follicular units (FUs).  The system is particularly useful to facilitate hair transplant procedures.  FUs are harvested from a body surface, either attached to a patient or in a strip of removed tissue, and shuttled into a cartridge having a plurality of receptacles. The receptacles are open in a distal direction toward a removal tool, but a cover over the proximal ends of the receptacles prevents the FUs from continuing out of the cartridge. The cover is made of a permissible medium, which may be fluid permeable and/or puncturable. One way to shuttle the FUs is to provide a pressure differential, such as by applying suction to the proximal end of a receptacle. The shuttle subsystem may be incorporated within an overall automated or robotic system, or the shuttle subsystem may form part of a semi-automated or even manual apparatus.

Title: Test instrument for pulse tdr, step tdr and transmission analysis
Inventor: DURSTON THOMAS W
IPC: H04B3/46
Filed: 2010-07-21
Abstract: The test instrument is used to perform both time domain reflectometry (TDR) and analysis of transmission signals on a line under test. Further, the test instrument provides for both pulse TDR and step TDR. A coupling transformer having an enhanced low frequency response provides for coupling of the test instrument to the line under test. Isolation circuits between the coupling transformer and the line under test to prevent damage to the test instrument due to voltages on the line under test allow the test instrument to be used in connection with an active line under test. Two isolation circuits are utilized to maintain longitudinal balance of the circuit. During step TDR, the positive and negative transmitter circuits provide step-- shaped impulse signals. The enhanced low frequency response of the coupling transformer allows for transmission of step-shaped impulses, including the DC components of those signals, to the line under test and allows for transmission of reflected signals, including the DC components of those signals to the receivers. The test instrument provides selectable impedance matching and provides for selectable attenuation levels.

Abstract: Generally, the present invention relates to improvements in metal utilization in supported, metal-containing catalysts. For example, the present invention relates to methods for directing and/or controlling metal deposition onto surfaces of porous substrates. The present invention also relates to methods for preparing catalysts in which a first metal is deposited onto a support (e.g., a porous carbon support) to provide one or more regions of a first metal at the surface of the support, and a second metal is deposited at the surface of the one or more regions of the first metal. Generally, the electropositivity of the first metal (e.g., copper or iron) is greater than the electropositivity of the second metal (e.g., a noble metal such as platinum) and the second metal is deposited at the surface of the one or more regions of the first metal by displacement of the first metal.

Inventor: FRANCK PIERRE-YVES
IPC: F24D3/14
Filed: 2011-01-25
Abstract: The present invention is directed to a device and a method for holding a pipe in a groove of a temperature control system and for forming a thermal connection between the surface and the pipe. More particularly the invention is directed to a device and a method for fixing a pipe of a floor heating system or for example a ceiling cooling system and for diffusing to the exterior of the surface the flow of heat circulating in the pipe. The holding device has a longitudinal axis parallel to the groove when inserted there in and comprises a sheet of metallic material. Its cross-section section comprises a central portion and two lateral straight sections, one at each side of the central section and angled with the central section. The holding device is positioned above the groove with its longitudinal axis parallel to the groove and with the central section above the groove. The central section is flexible and resilient so that it can be inserted by deformation into the groove and it can expand back in the groove. The groove has a trapezoidal cross-section tapering to the exterior so that the expansion of the central portion has for effect that the holding device takes the shape of an omega.  The opening of the then formed omega shape is slightly narrower than the outer diameter of the pipe to be inserted so that a force must be exerted on the pipe to make it enter and snap in the groove. There is also disclosed a method for forming the grooves with a trapezoidal cross-section tapering to the exterior by using elongate planks with a trapezoidal cross-section positioned in a row along the perimeter of the surface and forming a spiral. Each plank is spaced from each parallel and corresponding plank at a constant distance for forming the groove. Preferably, a double spirally shaped groove is then formed for inserting a pipe loop therein.
