Filed: 2004-06-07
Abstract: This disclosure generally relates to systems and methods for manipulating chambers and other substrates for chemical, biological, or biochemical samples, such as cell culture and other chambers, within units such as incubators. In certain embodiments, the invention provides a technique for maintaining a plurality of substrates or chambers in a housing within which a predetermined environment is maintained, different from the environment external to the housing, and moving substrates or chambers in and out of the housing, in some cases without creating a large opening in the housing (e.g., by opening a door significantly larger than the substrates). A technique is provided, in certain embodiments, in which a plurality of substrates are mounted in fixed, secured relation to each other within a housing providing a predetermined, controlled environment, and are moved within the housing so that they can be evenly exposed to any differences in environment within the housing. In certain embodiments, the invention provides a technique for agitating a fluid within one or more chambers or substrates within a housing that can provide environmental control, in certain embodiments without physically stirring the fluid, such as with a stir bar or other stirring element in direct contact with the fluid. In still another embodiment, the invention provides a method for rotating a substrate or chamber about a substantially vertical and/or horizontal axis. In some cases, any of the above-described systems can be rotated at a speed sufficient to cause separation of a substance within the chamber or substrate.

Abstract: A universal x, y-axis positioning input method used for electronic devices having number keys, direction keys and a display screen integrates the characters and/ or function keys into several character options to define a menu of columns in at least two rows displayed on the screen, and the menu can be divided into several pages if it is too large; a horizontal numerical row is disposed at the upper part of the menu for indicating the x-coordinates of the character options for selecting and controlling the x-coordinate of the character option by using the numerical keys; the values of y-coordinate, at first determining an initial value corresponding to the horizontal character option row, and then being displayed on the screen by a method other than those displaying the character option rows, finally, using direction keys to select and control the y-coordinate of the character option, and a row of character options can be selected each time; the way of selecting the x-coordinate is interchangeable with that for y-coordinate. Selecting the values of the x, y-axis for the desired character option from the menu completes the input. The invention overcomes the difficulties of locating the key mapping to the desired characters and having too many keystrokes, and also provides a simple, convenient and quick input method to be used universally for any character code sets and having the function keys effect.

Inventor: HUANG CHIH-LIN
IPC: G01N29/46
Filed: 2006-02-15
Abstract: L'invention concerne des méthodes pour évaluer les propriétés d'un matériau. Dans une première méthode, on calcule la vitesse d'une onde de contrainte ou d'une onde sonore en mesurant le temps de vol de l'onde de contrainte ou de l'onde sonore induite dans le matériau. La résonance du matériau est également mesurée après un contact avec le produit de bois. On calcule une vitesse distincte de l'onde sonore dans le matériau au moyen de mesures de résonance. Une comparaison des vitesses fournit une indication de l'homogénéité des propriétés du matériau. Les propriétés peuvent concerner, par exemple, la rigidité, la force, les divers gradients ou autres propriétés analogues. Dans une deuxième méthode de la présente invention, la vitesse calculée selon la méthode du temps de vol peut être utilisée comme guide pour déterminer une fréquence fondamentale pour l'onde de contrainte dans un matériau et la vitesse résultante. Le matériau peut être, par exemple, un bois, un métal, une matière plastique ou analogue.

Patent CA-2552184-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MONSHEIMER SYLVIA
IPC: B29C67/04
Filed: 2006-07-14
Abstract: The present invention relates to a three-dimensional powder-based production process using powder which comprises a cyclic oligomer, and also to a molding produced by this process. The process is a layer-by-layer process using powder, where regions of respective layers are selectively melted via electromagnetic energy. Selectivity can be achieved via masks, or application of inhibitors, of absorbers, or of susceptors, or via focusing of energy input, for example via laser technology. After cooling, the regions then solidified can be removed as a molding from the powder bed. The process uses a cyclic oligomer which is often very easy to grind. Improvements have been obtained in properties of the molding produced by the process, in particular, the density and the temperature of deflection under load. The cyclic oligomer is of a polymer, such as, polyester, polyamide, polysulfide, polyether and so on.
