Abstract: La présente invention concerne une pluralité de capteurs de courant (41, 42, 51, 52, 61, 62) qui sont associés à une pluralité de circuits inverseurs (40, 50, 60) qui pilotent une pluralité de moteurs-générateurs (MG1, MG2, MGR), respectivement. Le réglage du zéro de chaque capteur de courant est exécuté au cours d'un état non conducteur qui est identifié par une pause du fonctionnement du circuit inverseur associé, s'il est déterminé que l'affection du bruit est petite en raison de la pause du fonctionnement des autres circuits inverseurs dans le même boîtier (105). En conséquence, ceci peut éviter de risquer d'effectuer un réglage du zéro au cours d'un état dans lequel la sortie d'un capteur de courant ne présente aucune valeur correcte correspondant au courant nul en raison de l'affection du bruit pour les autres circuits d'inverseur. De cette manière, le réglage du zéro de chaque capteur de courant pour mesurer un courant d'entraînement du moteur peut être effectué avec une précision élevée.

Title: Systems and methods for harvesting, storing, and implanting hair grafts
Inventor: OOSTMAN CLIFFORD A JR
IPC: A61B10/02

Granted: 2014-03-18
Abstract: A system and method for harvesting, storing, and implanting biological units, in particular hair follicular units (FUs). The system is particularly useful to facilitate hair transplant procedures. FUs are harvested from a body surface, either attached to a patient or in a strip of removed tissue, and shuttled into a cartridge having a plurality of receptacles. The receptacles are open in a distal direction toward a removal tool, but a cover over the proximal ends of the receptacles prevents the FUs from continuing out of the cartridge. The cover is made of a permissible medium, which may be fluid permeable and/or puncturable. One way to shuttle the FUs is to provide a pressure differential, such as by applying suction to the proximal end of a receptacle. The shuttle subsystem may be incorporated within an overall automated or robotic system, or the shuttle subsystem may form part of a semi-automated or even manual apparatus.

Abstract: The present invention is generally directed to methods of making diester-based lubricant compositions, wherein formation of diester species proceeds via esterification of epoxide intermediates, and wherein the epoxide intermediates are generated via an enzymatically-driven mechanism. In some embodiments, the methods for making such diester-based lubricants utilize a biomass precursor and/or low value (e.g., Fischer-Tropsch (FT) olefins and/or alcohols) so as to produce high value diester-based lubricants. In some embodiments, such diester-based lubricants are derived from FT olefins and fatty acids. The fatty acids can be from a bio-based source (i.e., biomass, renewable source) or can be derived from FT alcohols via oxidation.
