Granted: 2008-10-07
Abstract: A high-efficiency liquid oxygen (LOX) storage/delivery system (100) utilizes a portable LOX/delivery apparatus (160) with a portable LOX  container (319). A portable-unit LOX  transfer connector (304) is connected to the portable LOX container (319) and is connectable to a main source of LOX  in a primary reservoir LOX container (226). A portable-unit oxygen gas transfer connector (384) is provided for transferring oxygen gas from the portable LOX container (319) to an oxygen gas delivery device (90) for delivering oxygen gas to a patient. An inter-unit oxygen gas transfer connector (190) also is provided for connecting the portable apparatus (160) to a stationary source of oxygen gas in the primary reservoir container (226), for transferring oxygen gas to the portable apparatus (160). A portable-unit primary relief (315) valve is connected to the portable LOX container (319) for venting oxygen gas out of the portable LOX container (319) when pressure in the portable LOX container (319) reaches a predetermined level. When the inter-unit oxygen gas transfer connector (190) of the portable container (319) is connected to the stationary source of oxygen in the primary reservoir container (226), oxygen gas can be transferred to the oxygen gas delivery device (90) for delivery to the patient from the portable LOX container (319) while oxygen gas is transferred to the portable container (319) from the stationary source of gas in the primary reservoir LOX  container (226).

Title: Active walls
Inventor: NILSSON LARS-GUNNAR
IPC: A61M15/00

Granted: 2009-02-03
Abstract: A powder distribution device for transporting and mixing a fine powder with a gas is disclosed. The device presents a distribution member forming a connection between a source of fine powder a nd a discharge opening. The distribution member has a first inlet portion (10) and an outlet portion (12) for a stream of a firs t gas (1) mixed with the fine powder. The main body of the distributio member constitutes a porous body portion (16) being surrounded b y a second gas (2). If a pressure gradient is created between the second gas (2) and the first gas (1), i.e., the first gas (1) being at a slightly lower pressure, the second gas (2) will leak through the porous body (16) and thereby preventing powder, in the mix of th e first gas and fine powder, from sticking or clogging within the distribution member, which thereby forms an active non-sticking wall relative to of the fine powder.

Granted: 2010-06-29
Abstract: A method and apparatus for variable accuracy inter-picture timing specification for digital video encoding is disclosed. Specificallly the present invention discloses a system that allows the relative timing of nearby video pictures to be encoded in a very efficient manner. In one embodiment, the display time difference between a current video picture (105) and a nearby video picture is determined. The display time difference is then encoded (180) into a digital representation of the video picture. In a preferred embodiment, the nearby video picture is the most recently transmitted stored picture. For coding efficiency, the display time difference may be encoded using a variable length coding system or arithmetic coding. In an alternate embodiment, the display time difference is encoded as a power of two to reduce the number of bits transmitted.

Title: System and methods for electrophoretic separation of proteins on protein binding membranes
Inventor: CHANG FRANK N
IPC: C07K1/26
Filed: 2003-09-09
Granted: 2012-03-20
Abstract: Proteins can be rapidly separated to a high degree of resolution by electrophoresis on polymeric membranes that have high protein binding capacity. The electrophoretic separation is carried out in a low conductivity, water-miscible organic solvent buffer. The low conductivity of the organic solvent buffer minimizes heat generation, and the water-miscible nature of the organic solvent buffer permits the analysis of hydrophobic and low molecular weight proteins as well as hydrophilic proteins. When electrophoresis is conducted under non-denaturing conditions, it allows the detection of enzymatic activities, protein-protein interactions and protein~ligand interactions.

Granted: 2008-12-30
Abstract: In an ophthalmic laser system preferably intended for photoablative refractive surgery, a component apparatus that is preferably an optical coherence tomography device for measuring corneal pachymetry makes its measurement when the First and Second Purkinje reflections of the OCT probe beam are detected, otherwise, the reflection signal is not strong enough to enable the OCT measurement. The beam axis of the therapeutic laser of the system is co-aligned with the OCT- prbbe beam. When the First and Second Purkinje reflections of the OCT probe beam are detected, a signal is generated by the OCT device and sent to the eye tracker component of the system to engage the eye tracker operation. This allows for objective, automatic engagement of the eye tracker and alignment of the patient's optical axis to the treatment axis or a diagnostic beam axis.
