Abstract: A tampon pledget has an absorbent mass of material and a withdrawal string located at one end thereof. During use, the tampon pledget expands to take on a geometric configuration that approximates the shape of the vagina into which the tampon pledget is inserted. An anthroprometrically expandable tampon pledget has an absorbent mass of material that is defined by a first end having a first density, a second end having a second density, and a portion intermediate the first and second ends. The material expands at different rates upon being contacted by body fluids, thereby allowing the tampon pledget to conform to the shape of a vagina. A method of making an expandable tampon pledget includes the steps of providing an absorbent material, attaching a string thereto, and compressing the material into a cylindrical shape such that a density gradient is realized over a length of the compressed material.

Abstract: Linvention concerne la séparation densembles connecteurs dun système connecteur séparable. Les ensembles connecteurs séparables comprennent au moins une paire de connecteurs configurés pour s'emboîter l'un avec lautre et se déboîter lun de lautre pour respectivement établir et couper une liaison électrique. Un opérateur peut déboîter les connecteurs en les poussant lun vers lautre, puis en les tirant pour les séparer. Le fait de pousser les connecteurs lun vers lautre produit un cisaillement de ladhérence interfaciale entre les connecteurs, ce qui facilite ensuite leur séparation. Lun des connecteurs peut comporter une extrémité nez présentant un segment à entaille configuré pour ne pas coopérer avec la surface intérieure de lautre connecteur lorsque les connecteurs sont emboîtés. La limitation de la zone de nez de l'extrémité nez qui permet d'établir une interface avec la surface intérieure de l'autre connecteur permet de réduire ladhérence surfacique et la chute de pression lors de la séparation des connecteurs, et donc de faciliter l'exécution cette dernière opération.

Abstract: In certain embodiments, a method for monitoring, alerting and remedia-tion of systems is provided. The method pro-vides for receiving data from one or more data sources and logging the data. A first metadata fingerprint is created for a particular data source. The first metadata fingerprint is indicative of a first quantity of data output for the particular data source. A second metadata fingerprint is created for the same data source. The second metadata fingerprint is in-dicative of a second quantity of data output for the data source. The second metadata fin-fingerprint is created from data received at a dif-ferent point in time from the first metadata fingerprint. The first metadata fingerprint is compared with the second metadata fingerprint associated with the particular data source. An alert is generated when the com-parison indicates that the first metadata fin-fingerprint does not correspond within a speci-fied tolerance to the second metadata finger-print.

Abstract: A valve lift mechanism for actuating a valve in the vertical direction, and a regenerative thermal oxidizer including the valve and lift mechanism is disclosed. The valve is allowed to move vertically and oscillating rotary motion is possible.  Vertical movement is achieved using the valve lift mechanism without the use of compressed air. In certain embodiments, the valve lift mechanism includes a torque motor. Preferably, a screw jack is used to adjust the vertical height of the valve.    Vertical movement can reduce the torque needed to rotate the valve, and also facilitates servicing of the valve. For example, if the valve experiences high temperature, and consequently expands, rotating the valve against the mating seal plate can be difficult, if not impossible. By lowering the valve slightly, the frictional forces between the valve and the mating seal plate are reduced, allowing freer rotational movement of the valve.

Abstract: Une méthode sert à la décontamination du sol et de l'eau souterraine contenant des contaminants organiques et des composés métalliques. Elle comprend les étapes de traitement de tels sols et eaux souterraines à l'aide d'une quantité efficace d'une solution aqueuse contenant un peroxyde et un chélateur hydrosoluble pendant une période suffisante pour que le chélateur hydrosoluble chélate au moins un des métaux des composés métalliques présents dans le sol et l'eau souterraine. Puis, les métaux chélatés sont mis en contact avec le peroxyde afin de convertir de manière catalytique le peroxyde en un agent oxydant et un ion hydroxyle. L'ion hydroxyle convertit le composé organique halogéné en composés non toxiques, sûrs pour l'environnement. Les gaz produits par cette réaction, et par l'oxydation des composés organiques, sont utilisés pour diffuser la solution dans le sol en vue de chélater le calcium et le magnésium, entraînant ainsi le sodium à se déloger du sol et à réduire la sodicité du sol.
