Patent EP-3760703-A1 (EP)
Inventor: HOBBS ERIC D
IPC: C12M1/34
Filed: 2014-10-22
Abstract: A microfluidic device can comprise at least one swept region that is fluidically connected to unswept regions. The fluidic connections between the swept region and the unswept regions can enable diffusion but substantially no flow of media between the swept region and the unswept regions. The capability of biological micro-objects to produce an analyte of interest can be assayed in such a microfluidic device. Biological micro-objects in sample material loaded into a microfluidic device can be selected for particular characteristics and disposed into unswept regions. The sample material can then be flowed out of the swept region and an assay material flowed into the swept region. Flows of medium in the swept region do not substantially affect the biological micro-objects in the unswept regions, but any analyte of interest produced by a biological micro-object can diffuse from an unswept region into the swept region, where the analyte can react with the assay material to produce a localized detectable reaction. Any such detected reactions can be analyzed to determine which, if any, of the biological micro-objects are producers of the analyte of interest.

Abstract: Implementations relate to determining a language for speech recognition of a spoken utterance, received via an automated assistant interface, for interacting with an automated assistant. Implementations can enable multilingual interaction with the automated assistant, without necessitating a user explicitly designate a language to be utilized for each interaction. Selection of a speech recognition model for a particular language can based on one or more interaction characteristics exhibited during a dialog session between a user and an automated assistant. Such interaction characteristics can include anticipated user input types, anticipated user input durations, a duration for monitoring for a user response, and/or an actual du- ration of a provided user response.

Title: Method for calibrating movements of actuated members of powered surgical stapler
Inventor: ADAMS SHANE R
IPC: A61B17/11
Filed: 2020-09-17
Abstract: A method is provided for operating a powered surgical stapler having a motor unit, a controller, and a stapling assembly having a plurality of movable members that are actuatable longitudinally by the motor unit to clamp, staple, and cut tissue. The controller determines that a movable member of the stapling assembly is in a first predetermined position, and then executes an actuation algorithm to activate the motor unit to actuate the movable member longitudinally from the first predetermined position toward a second predetermined position. The controller observes an actual longitudinal displacement of the movable member between the first and second predetermined positions. The controller compares the actual longitudinal displacement to an expected longitudinal displacement and determines that the actual longitudinal displacement differs from the expected longitudinal displacement by a difference value. The controller then adjusts the actuation algorithm based on the difference value.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an automatic replacement device of a secondary battery material with which a supply reel can be automatically replaced without a stop in the production process of a secondary battery when a separator or an electrode plate supply reel is replaced. According to an embodiment of the present invention, the supply reel can be automatically replaced without a stop in the production process when replacing the supply reel for a separator or an electrode plate, and thus, there is an effect of reducing a production process time as much as eliminating delay and waiting time. In addition, a cutter-integrated clamp roller is used, and thus, air bubble is not generated when attaching end sections of the separator or the electrode plate and adhesiveness is improved. Therefore, supply of the separator or the electrode plate may be smoothly performed without a stop.
