Abstract: Methods for evaluating battery safety under internal short-circuit conditions are improved to eliminate variations in evaluation results and accurately evaluate battery safety under internal short-circuit conditions. An internal short-circuit is caused in a battery by using an internal short-circuit causing method in which battery information obtained upon the occurrence of an internal short-circuit hardly changes with the structure of the battery. At this time, the battery information is detected to accurately evaluate the safety of the battery upon the internal short-circuit and identify the safety level.

Abstract: A reservoir and straight-line, push-on connector assembly is provided for connecting the reservoir and one of a standard Luer line set and a custom Luer line set to any number of infusion pump configurations using a simple straight-line, push-on motion, wherein the push-on connector assembly is provided and configured to secure the line set and reservoir with the infusion pump. One simple straight-line, push-on motion, preferably performed by gripping an expander sleeve, places and secures the reservoir (i.e., locates the reservoir on the x, y, and z axes) in the pump reservoir cavity, and one simple straight-line, pull-off motion releases and removes the reservoir from the pump reservoir cavity. Rotational orientation is not required for connection, pump engagement, or pump function, and any pulling of the tube set will not release the reservoir as the expansion sleeve through which the tube set is routed is not moved from the securing position by tension on the tube set or Luer fitting.

Abstract: A terminal device stores augmented reality generated by merging an image of an object and attribute information associated with the object. The terminal device, and a method therefor, allow for retrieval of stored augmented reality information about selected objects if the terminal is no longer at a location where the object's image was captured. The terminal device obtains a preference level for the attribute information and displays the attribute information based on the preference levels. Based on usage of the attribute information, the terminal redetermines preference levels for the attribute information. If previously stored augmented reality is requested, the terminal displays the previously stored augmented reality based on the redetermined preference levels.
