Abstract: An external fixation component comprises two capture members adapted to capture independently first and second elements of the fixation system. Between them, a rotation member is provided, coupled to both capture members for their rotation about three axes relative to each other. Two rotation blockers provide an interface surface to be in contact with a complementary interface surface of one of the capture members. The rotation member comprises a central disc element forming a rolling surface as a complementary surface to inner cylindrical surfaces of the corresponding rotation blocker and two nuts, associated to the locking screw of the corresponding capture member and extending through the corresponding rotation blocker for engaging the corresponding nut for an individual locking of each capture member.

Title: Use of cationic surfactants for the protection against tooth erosion
Inventor: ROCABAYERA BONVILA XAVIER
IPC: A23G4/12
Filed: 2009-02-11
Abstract: This invention relates to a use of a composition for protecting oral cavity and teeth containing ethyl-Na-lauroyl-L-arginate HCI (LAE), a corresponding composition and a corresponding method for protecting teeth. Because of nearly epidemic incidence of dental erosion, there is a continuing need for improved products that provide protection against dental erosion.  Hence, it is an object of the present invention to protect teeth against dental erosion. Surprisingly, it has been found that ethyl-Na--lauroyl-L-arginate HCI (LAE) and its salts attach to teeth and provide protection of teeth from erosion especially caused by the action of acid in food products and drinks such as chewing gum and lozenges compositions. Special advantages of this invention are: (a) sustained coating of the teeth by LAE and its homologues; (b) the coating agent provides a source of neutralizing plaque acids by providing sustained base formation. This is because arginines in LAE  is degraded by bacteria on tooth in the mouth to produce ammonia. Thus, this chemistry not only provides the coating protection but also generates base to maintain pH balance on a sustained basis; and (c) avoid the use of brushing with abrasive cleansers.

Abstract: A locking differential includes an annular center cam member freely rotatably supported within an annular central driver member without the use of any keying device, such as a snap ring, thereby to simply the construction and assembly of the differential, and to reduce cost. The center cam member is longitudinally maintained in place by the biasing forces applied to the clutch members arranged on opposite sides of the central driver member by helical compression springs arranged externally concentrically about the side gears, respectively, and by the holdout rings that are connected with the clutch members. The center cam member and the central driver member have adjacent outer and inner circumferential surfaces, respectively, that are smooth, continuous, and uninterrupted. The holdout rings are rotatably connected at their remote ends with the clutch members by integral annular outer ribs that extend within corresponding grooves contained in the counterbore wall surfaces.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and apparatus for detecting undesired measurement conditions in a sample con-tainer. The method comprises measuring a fluorescent property of the sample container comprising a sample substrate with im-pregnated blood sample and incubation buffer to which the blood sample is to be eluted, and determining, based on temporal and/  or spectral characteristics of the fluorescent property, whether the fluorescent property is characteristic to a sample container com-prising a sample substrate and incubation buffer under said undesired measurement conditions or to a sample container suitable for optical measurement of analyte contained in the sample. Thus undesired measurement condition can be a floating sample sub-strate or a foreign body in the sample container. By means of the invention, reliability of neonatal screening, for example, can be increased.

Abstract: An external charger transmits energy to charge an implanted medical device. A sensor measures a parameter that is correlated to a temperature that is adjacent to the external charger. This parameter is indicative of the temperature or an amount of heat that is generated during the charging of the implanted medical device by the external charger. The temperature is compared to a user programmable temperature threshold and based on the comparison, the charge rate or output power of the external charger or input power of the implanted medical device is adjusted to reduce the heat generated by the charging. The user programmable temperature threshold is set to an optimum charge rate whereby the temperature that is generated during charging of the implanted medical device by the external charger feels comfortable to the user.

Abstract: An illuminated emerald green lamp, front mounted on any motorized vehicle.  Its purpose is to alert approaching traffic and/or pedestrians in its path as to the intent of that driver to bring his/her vehicle to a stopping condition.   Attachment is accomplished by the steel strap portion of the fixture. It is secured to the front bumper, in conjunction with the marker plate (license). This surface is a feature on most road vehicles.   The fixture may be arranged either behind the top edge of the marker plate or suspended from the lower edge if bumper design interferes. Existing or standard fasteners would be used.   The devise is located where recognition is commonplace, visible only from directly in front of the vehicle, free of obstruction or confusion with other illumination (i.e., head/parking/side marker lights). The paramount objective is to introduce a new concept of safety and not for trendy or cosmetic purposes. The colour green is recognized universally as permission to proceed in many applications.   This invention approximates the "high mount light" currently mandated at the rear of all vehicles. It would be activated simultaneously when the foot presses on the brake peddle. It is the reintroduction of basic techniques when new electronics (i.e., cell phones, sound systems and other distractions) promote driver inattention, putting periphery traffic at risk.

Abstract: A universal mounting multimedia device, which encloses various makes and models of cellular telephone devices and redirects multiple services to larger, or easier to use implementations. For example, redirection of video normally displayed on the smaller screen of the cellular telephone would be redirected to a larger screen, for entertainment or ease of use purposes.  The intention of this device is to provide these enhancements beyond the product lifetime of a singular cellular telephone or to be used by more than one primary person across many devices. Also this device would allow for longer, more extended use without needing to be charged from an external power source, but charging and powering the cellular telephone beyond the intended cellular telephone's capacity. This device would dock to the cellular telephone, providing superior audio quality, larger display surface for video sources, extended battery life, along with a larger keyboard input area through the use of HDMI ports and USB  ports present on the intended cellular telephone models, limited to devices with Bluetooth, HDMI and USB interfaces.

Abstract: On magnetic particles serving as a first support, an antibody against a nonspecific reaction factor is immobilized. These magnetic particles are mixed with a specimen and suspended therein. After suspending, the suspension is sucked up into a pipette chip and a magnet comes close to the pipette chip. While remotely constraining with the magnet the magnetic particles carrying the nonspecific reaction factor bonded thereto, the residual liquid is discharged into a well. Thus, the removal of a contaminant contained in the specimen is completed. The thus treated specimen discharged into the well is subjected to an immunoassay. The magnetic particles carrying the antibody immobilized thereon are mixed with the treated specimen and suspended therein. The suspension is sucked up into a pipette chip and the magnetic particles carrying an antigen bonded thereto are separated by use of the magnet. The magnetic particles carrying the antigen bonded thereto are washed, mixed with an enzyme-labeling solution, which contains a second support, and suspended therein.  After suspending, the magnetic particles being labeled and carrying the antigen bonded thereto are mixed with a substrate solution and subjected to the measurement of emission intensity, etc.
