Abstract: La boîte à outils comprend un ensemble de jauges d'angle pour mesurer des angles dans une pièce à usiner étant formée dans une cintreuse de feuille de métal, et des conseils et des graphiques mathématiques imprimés associés aux jauges d'angle. Chaque jauge d'angle a une forme allongée avec une surface de base juxtaposée longitudinale et une surface inclinée longitudinale ; et un indice sur celle-ci indiquant un angle nominal. La surface inclinée forme un angle réel avec une saillie transversale de la surface de base. Cet angle réel correspond à la somme de l'angle nominal sur l'indice plus un angle de supplément. Les angles nominaux sur les jauges d'angle dans l'ensemble sont différents les uns des autres, et l'angle de supplément est commun à toutes les jauges d'angle de l'ensemble. L'angle de supplément correspond à la pente de la barre de pression dans la cintreuse de feuille de métal. L'ensemble entier peut être utilisé en tant qu'une même cintreuse pour mesurer des angles différents.

Title: Printing high information density machine-readable composite images
Inventor: PIERCE PERRY A
IPC: G07B17/00
Filed: 2003-06-24
Granted: 2009-11-24
Abstract: Machine-readable light-colored or invisible, but luminescent, postage-evidencing symbology and dark, readable other postage information are printed, preferably in a single print operation, to provide large amounts of information without diminishing read rates. The resulting combination image can be printed independent of substrate material to enable the provision of a high information density without obscuring any one component. The postage-evidencing symbology is printed in large-format and can include redundant information within an IBI image or between an IBI and visible dark image for a variety of practical purposes. In a preferred form, the images are printed using conventional ink jet printers using water-based inks. In one embodiment of this type, the images are printed with a conventional two-cartridge color ink jet printer by printing postage-evidencing symbology with a single-color ink and printing the visible dark image as a composite dark color from a standard multi-color cartridge.

Title: Syringe spring retainer
Inventor: KAAL JOSEPH HERMES
IPC: A61M5/32
Filed: 2004-03-19
Granted: 2011-12-20
Abstract: A spring retainer (60) for a syringe (10) that has a barrel (40), a plunger (20), a spring (90) and a retractable needle (50) that can couple with the plunger for spring-driven retraction of the coupled needle and plunger. The spring retainer has first (70) and second (80) body members that cooperate to releasably maintain the spring in a compressed state until the plunger is coupled to the retractable needle after depression of the plunger to deliver the fluid contents of the syringe. Depression of the plunger triggers rotational disengagement of the first and second body members to allow decompression of the spring which forces retraction of the needle into the barrel. Rotational disengagement of the first and second body members also assists rotation of the plunger into a final, inoperable position.

Abstract: An apparatus, program product and method to manage access to a shared resource by a plurality of processes in a multithreaded computer via a collection of atomic operations that track both the order in which requests that use a shared resource are received, and the order in which processing of such requests are completed after they are received. Dispatching of requests is effectively deferred until processing of all non-dispatched requests that were received earlier than a most recently completed request has been completed. In many instances, completion of processing of requests can be performed non-atomically, thus reducing contention issues with respect to the shared resource. Furthermore, dispatching of requests may be batched to reduce the overhead associated with individual dispatch operations.

Abstract: A method of manipulating allogeneic cells for use in allogeneic cell therapy protocols is described. The method provides a composition of highly activated allogeneic T-cells which are infused into immunocompetent cancer patients to elicit a novel anti-tumor immune mechanism called the "Mirror Effect". In contrast to current allogeneic cell therapy protocols where T-cells in the graft mediate the beneficial graft vs. tumor (GVT) and detrimental graft vs. host (GVH) effects, the allogeneic cells of the present invention stimulate host T-cells to mediate the "mirror" of these effects. The mirror of the GVT effect is the host vs. tumor (HVT) effect. The "mirror" of the GVH effect is the host vs. graft (HVG) effect. The effectiveness and widespread application of the anti~tumor GVT effect is limited by the severe toxicity of the GVH effect. In the present invention, the anti-tumor HVT effect occurs in conjunction with a non~ toxic HVG rejection effect. The highly activated allogeneic cells of the invention can be used to stimulate host immunity in a complete HLA mis~matched setting in patients that have not had a prior bone marrow transplant or received chemotherapy and/or radiation conditioning regimens.

Abstract: Les éléments électriques saillants situés sur le réservoir à eau chaude d'un chauffe-eau électrique sont protégés par un matériau d'isolation en mousse injecté dans un espace d'isolation entre le réservoir et l'enveloppe extérieure du chauffe-eau au moyen d'une structure bloquante creuse et ouverte d'un côté qui traverse une ouverture de l'enveloppe et entoure les éléments électriques. Les saillies qui exercent une force sur la structure bloquante poussent la paroi intérieure de l'enveloppe et retiennent inévitablement la paroi intérieure de la structure bloquante, scellant ainsi le réservoir. Les saillies retiennent également le rebord extérieur qui fait le tour de la structure bloquante tout en étant repoussé élastiquement vers l'extérieur, et qui se referme hermétiquement vers l'intérieur sur la surface extérieure de l'enveloppe, autour de l'ouverture. Ainsi, on empêche la mousse injectée d'être forcée vers l'extérieur à travers l'ouverture de l'enveloppe.

Granted: 2013-07-23
Abstract: L'invention concerne divers procédés permettant de mesurer les paramètres d'un écoulement stratifié, au moyen d'au moins un réseau tridimensionnel de capteurs disposés dans différents points axiaux le long d'un conduit. Chaque capteur produit un signal indiquant une pression irrégulière créée par la convection de structures cohérentes avec l'écoulement. Dans un aspect de l'invention, une unité de traitement de signal détermine à partir des signaux les vitesses de convection des structures cohérentes présentant différentes échelles de longueur. L'unité de traitement de signal compare ensuite les vitesses de convection afin de déterminer le niveau de stratification de l'écoulement. Ce niveau de stratification peut être utilisé dans une procédure d'étalonnage servant à déterminer le débit volumétrique de l'écoulement. Dans un aspect différent, le niveau de stratification de l'écoulement est déterminé par comparaison des vitesses mesurées localement au sommet et au fond du conduit. Le rapport des vitesses mesurées à proximité du sommet et du fond du conduit présente une corrélation avec le niveau de stratification de l'écoulement. Des réseaux de capteurs additionnels peuvent être utilisés pour fournir un profil des vitesses de l'écoulement. Dans un aspect différent, chaque capteur du réseau se compose de deux demi-capteurs disposés sur les surfaces latérales opposées du conduit, et l'unité de traitement de signal détermine la vitesse nominale de l'écoulement dans le conduit à partir de ces signaux.
