Abstract: An appliance, a system and a method prevent snoring of a patient. The appliance opens an airway of the patient by advancing a lower jaw of the patient. A slot is formed on an upper shell and/or a lower shell of the appliance to receive teeth of the patient for wearing the appliance. A hinge connects the upper shell to the lower shell and resists the closing of the mouth of the patient to maintain the open airway of the patient. Wedges protrude from the hinge between the upper shell and the lower shell to further resist the closing of the mouth of the patient. Extended margins may receive liner material to secure the appliance to the dentition. Lingual extensions on the lower arch help to maintain the lower jaw in a forward position relative to the upper jaw.

Abstract: A slit lamp mounted eye imaging device for viewing wide field and/or magnified views of the retina or the anterior segment through an undilated or dilated pupil. The apparatus images posterior and anterior segments of the eye, and sections/focal planes in between and contains an illumination system that uses one or more LEDs, shifting optical elements, and/or aperture stops where the light can be delivered into the optical system on optical axis or off axis from center of optical system and return imaging path from the retina, thereby creating artifacts in different locations on retina. Image processing is employed to detect and eliminate artifacts from images. The device is well suited for retinal imaging through an undilated pupil, non-pharmacologically dilated,or a pupil as small as 2mm. Two or more images with reflection artifacts can be created and subsequently recombined through image processing into a composite artifact- free image.

Abstract: A method and device for transmitting a control message based on a multi-ring Ethernet are provided, wherein the method comprises the following steps:  control virtual local area networks of a main ring and a sub-ring are configured (S1002); and a main ring node receives a sub-ring control message from the sub-ring, forwards the sub-ring control massage to the other main ring nodes on the main ring via a data plane, and synchronously realizes the blocking or opening of the sub-ring control message and a data message in the data plane (S1004). With the technical scheme of the present invention, the sub-ring control message is forwarded by the main ring node via the data plane, which avoids the latency of a sub-ring control message processing performed by a control plane, and thus solves the problem that the time for the main ring node to process the sub-ring control message is too long during existing control message transmission process, avoids the control message loop situation caused by the transmission of the sub-ring control message over the main ring, and improves the network performance.

Abstract: The invention relates to a multistage continuous countercurrent fluidized moving bed (FMB) and/or expanded moving bed (EMB) arrangement for recovery, purification, and chemical/enzymatic reaction of single or multiple component/s of interest by adsorptive separation; the separation being carried out by contacting liquid phase containing the mixture or reactants with the solid adsorbents in continuous counter-current mode. Conventionally, FMBs / EMBs are employed as batch operations, which require large volumes of adsorbent particles and batteries of columns especially during large scale operations, reducing the overall productivity.  The invention provides a multistage arrangement of FMB/ EMB eliminating the steps of filtration, clarification, and concentration prior to selective adsorption.  The adsorbent particles are suspended in flowing fluid, allowing particulate matter-containing solution to flow freely through the bed of adsorbent, in counter-current mode, without causing blockages and or low-back mixing. The invention provides independent control over process variables of each of the operations simultaneously.
