Title: A continuous passive motion device
IPC: A61H1/02
Filed: 1990-01-24
Abstract: A CPM device is disclosed having a single drive tube (14) supporting the calf (2) and thigh (4) support members. Arms (24, 26) extend upwardly from the calf and thigh support members, each supporting an adjustable cradle (28, 30, 40) in which the calf or thigh rests. The support arms (24, 26) are rotatable 180 degrees so that either leg may be supported over the single drive tube. A foot support (16) is also cantilevered from the end of the calf support drive bar. The drive tube (14) which supports the calf and thigh drive support bars (24) is cantilevered from a unique support mechanism (15) which attaches an end of the drive tube (14) to the horizontal bed. A rack and pinion mechanism (102, 104) is combined with a unique gas spring (108) in order to allow the drive tube (14) to be easily rotated up above the hospital bed with the gas spring (108) providing a power assist to the person lifting the drive tube may be easily rotated up off the bed without undue physical exertion.

Title: Retention system for a connector housing
Inventor: WALDEN JOHN DONALD
IPC: H01R12/70
Filed: 1992-07-14
Abstract: A retention system for retaining a connector housing (12) to a substrate (14) includes a pair of slotted arms (50A, 50B) extending from the housing and a wedge-shaped abutment (60) member having a camming surface (62) and a latching surface (64) thereon. One leg of an L-shaped clip (80) is insertable into a channel defined by the slotted arms. The top edge of this leg of the clip is notched to form a tab (124). The clip is deflectable by the camming surface as the leg advances into the channel until the latch bar on the clip snaps into latching engagement with the latching surface on the abutment member, thereby to secure the clip to the housing. The second leg (82'B) of the clip is bent to underlie the connector housing when the clip is attached thereto.

IPC: C08F2/00
Filed: 1994-03-25
Abstract: A process for producing a fluoroelastomer composed of vinylidene fluoride units and other fluoromonomer units copolymerizable therewith by suspension polymerization, which comprises: (1) dispersing the above monomers in 100 parts by weight of an aqueous medium containing 0.001-3 parts by weight of a suspension stabilizer, (2) using a polymerization initiator solution prepared by diluting 0.001-5 parts by weight of an oil-soluble organic peroxide in a concentration of 0.1-75 % by weight with a halogen-fee water-soluble hydrocarbon solvent represented by the general formula R-OH, R2-COO-R1 or R1-CO-R3 (wherein R1 and R3 represent each methyl or tert-butyl, and R2 represents hydrogen, methyl or tert-butyl), and (3) conducting the suspension polymerization at 45-70  DEG C. The process provides a fluoroelastomer which has excellent resistances to heat, oil and chemical, a reduced compression set and a good releasability, and little stains a mold. Further it can dispense with the use of an ozonosphere-depleting chlorofluorocarbon solvent and facilitates the recovery of the monomers and solvent.

Title: Virtual retinal display with fiber optic point source
Inventor: FURNESS THOMAS A III
IPC: H04N9/31
Filed: 1996-04-19
Abstract: A virtual retinal display utilizes photon generation and manipulation to create a panoramic, high resolution, color virtual image that is projected directly onto the retina of the eye. The virtual retinal display includes a source of photons, the photons being modulated with video information and scanned by a scanning system in a raster type of pattern directly onto the retina of the user's eye. A single, monofilament optical fiber of very small diameter couples light from the photon generator to the scanning system so as to provide to the scanning system a point source of light at the fiber's exit aperture. The photon generator may utilize coherent or non-coherent light. Further, the photon generator may utilize color light emitters so as to scan a colored virtual image directly onto the retina of the user's eye.

Filed: 1996-06-03
Abstract: A consensus poptide of 36 amino acids has been designed which acts as an immunogen raising antibodies against the proteins of all members of the E. coli family CS4-CFA/1. While the N-terminus of members of this family of organisms shows a high degree of identity, the remainder of the sequence of the proteins shows much less homology across the strains. The region of the protein represented in the subunit encompasses known linear B- and T-cell epitopes of CFA/I. The consensus peptide has a high level of homology to strains bearing six different colonization factors. The consensus peptide is of the formula:VEKNITVTASVDPTIDLLQADGSALPSAVALTYSPAAn alternative peptide, identified as consensus peptide 2 is of the formula:VEKNITVTASVDPTIDLLQADGSALPASVALTYSPA
