Abstract: A dispensing valve for flowable material comprises a valve plate (26) of resilient polymeric material in which at least one elongate discontinuity is formed. The discontinuity defines at least one valve flap (28) which is an integral part of the valve plate but whose margin defined by the discontinuity is not connected to the adjacent material of the valve plate. The valve flap (28) is movable under the application of pressure from a closed position, in which the adjacent margins of the discontinuity form a substantial seal, to an open position, in which the margins for the discontinuity are spaced from one another and material can flow through the valve member. The polymeric material is a polyolefin material and the discontinuity is a rupture line. The margins defining the rupture line are of decreasing thickness towards their free edge and overlie one another.

Abstract: An efficient interrupt system for a multi-processor computer. Devices interrupt a processor or group of processors using pre-defined message address and data payload communicated with a memory write transaction over a PCI, PCI-X, or PCI Express bus. The devices are configured with messages that each targets a processor. Upon receiving a command to perform an operation, the device may receive an indication of a preferred message to use to interrupt a processor upon completion of that operation. The efficiency with which each interrupt is handled and the overall efficiency of operation of the computer is increased by defining messages for the devices within the computer so that each device contains messages targeting processors distributed across groups of processors, with each group representing processors in close proximity. In selecting target processors for messages, processors are selected to spread processing across the processor groups and across processors within each group.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne une interface entre tête et manche de brosse comprenant un ensemble tête de brosse (20) pourvu d'un élément brosse (26) destiné au nettoyage des dents. Un axe d'entraînement (14) sort d'une partie manche (12) de la brosse à dents (10) qui est animée d'un mouvement oscillant utilisant un angle de rotation sélectionné. L'axe d'entraînement comporte une ou plusieurs zones de contact (49). L'élément de couplage comporte une ou plusieurs parties d'interface (46) qui s'appliquent de force contre les zones de contact de l'axe d'entraînement au moyen d'un élément ressort unique lorsque l'axe d'entraînement est inséré dans l'élément de couplage. Le ressort unique (34) exerce sur les parties d'interface de l'élément de couplage une force contre les zones de contact de l'axe d'entraînement, laquelle force suffit, non seulement à produire un transfert de couple fiable entre l'axe d'entraînement et l'ensemble tête de brosse, mais aussi à assurer la retenue axiale de l'ensemble tête de brosse sur l'axe d'entraînement pendant le fonctionnement de la brosse à dents.

Abstract: A device (10) for attaching connective tissue to bone has a longitudinal axis and comprises an annular toggle member (14) and a body member (12) disposed distally of the toggle member (14). The toggle member (14) is movable between an undeployed position wherein the toggle member (14) has a smaller profile in a direction transverse to the axis and a deployed position wherein the toggle member (14) has a larger profile in the direction transverse to the axis. When installed in a desired procedural site, in suitable bone, suturing material (28) extends axially through a center aperture (13) in the annular toggle member (14), without being secured to or contacting the toggle member (14). This approach permits a suture attachment which lies entirely beneath the cortical bone surface, and further permits the attachment of suture (28) to the bone anchor (10) without the necessity for tying knots, which is particularly arduous and technically demanding in the case of arthroscopic procedures. The suture attachment to the bone anchor involves the looping of a length of suture around a suture return member within the bone anchor, tightening the suture and attached soft tissue, and compressing the suture against the bone anchor.

Abstract: Techniques for providing cost effective and tamper evident prepaid card packaging are described. By forming a tear strip in a panel of the prepaid card packaging and aligning an activation bar code or other indicia on the card with the tear strip when mounting the card within the packaging, the security of the activation indicia can be maintained until after purchase. After purchase, access can be achieved by tearing away the tear strip and the card can be activated in a secure manner. Because the activation indicia is maintained secure until after purchase, if desired a single number, for example, a card account number can be used to identify both the card account and to activate the card.

Abstract: A system and method for joining nodes from a first and a second subnet into a network. A probability is established that a node within the first subnet will enter scout mode during its sleep interval, wherein the probability is less than 100%. If the node enters scout mode, a message is broadcasted from the node in scout mode to other nodes inviting nodes in other subnets to join with the first subnet, wherein the message includes the node's network identifier. If the message broadcasted by the node in scout mode is detected by a node in a second subnet, the node in the second subnet determines whether nodes in the second subnet have the same network identifier as the network identifier in the message broadcast by the node in scout mode. If the nodcs in the second subnet have the same network identifier as the network identifier in the message broadcast by the node in scout mode, the nodes in the first and second subnets are combined into a combined network.

Methods by which a mobile station can request Walsh space information are provided. In another aspect, a Walsh space indicator channel is continually broadcast for mobile stations to detect the Walsh space indicator therefrom. In yet another aspect, the Walsh space indicator is used to initialize convolutional encoders (260) and decoders (304), to provide a mechanism for mitigating against errors introduced while receiving Walsh space indicators.; Various other aspects are also presented.
