Abstract: Disclosed are devices and methods for the control of body fluid flow in the extracorporeal treatment of body fluid. Body fluid flow through on of a body fluid flow circuit (10, 50, 60, 100 or 250) is controlled by alternating applying vacuum pressure and positive pressure to the circuit through a pumping chamber (30, 51, 66, 102, or 200) coordinated with flow control valves (40, 42, 44, 62, 114, 116, 118, and 120) to effect a net downstream flow of body fluid through the circuit.

Abstract: An element object model and a vector graphics markup language for using that element object model in a manner that allows program code developers to consistently interface with a scene graph data structure to produce graphics. The vector graphics element object model generally corresponds to shape elements and other elements including image and video elements that correlate with a scene graph object model of the scene graph. Markup may be parsed into data including elements in an element tree that is translated into the objects of a scene graph data structure. Other markup may be translated directly into data and calls that create the scene graph objects. The markup language provides distinct ways to describe an element, including a simple string format or complex property syntax, which may be named, enabling reuse in other locations in the markup.

Title: A plug-in safety coupling
Inventor: WUETHRICH ALBRECHT
IPC: F16L37/38
Filed: 2002-02-13
Granted: 2010-04-27
Abstract: Normally, compressed air coupling plugs lock inside a coupling housing. Decoupling must consequently occur by releasing said plugs counter to the friction forces existing between the plug and the housing . This requires force and the plug may not relieved of pressure when decoupled. The invention works with a locking element (2) which is mounted in a coupling housing (1). The plug (5) and the locking element (2) are provided with reciprocally corresponding locking means (24, 52; 28, 56) whereby the locking element (2) can be pivoted for decoupling without the plug (5) pressing on the housing (1), thereby enabling large caliber tubing, such as those used with construction compressors, to be coupled by hand without tools.

Title: Extractor/cooler of loose materials through the use of conveyor belt equipped with bored and winged plates
Inventor: MAGALDI MARIO
IPC: F27B15/16
Filed: 2003-02-19
Granted: 2011-04-26
Abstract: The cooling of the material is mainly achieved through the convective thermal exchange between the loose hot material and the cooling air flow blown in from the outside, and through the conductive thermal exchange between the same material (3) and the conveyor belt (2). In order to improve the efficiency of the cooling process appropriate slots (16) are made into the plates of the conveyor belt, through which the cooling air can be made to flow so as to reach the base of the travelling continuous bed consisting of hot material. Furthermore the abovementioned plates can be equipped with appropriate extensions which operate while immersed into the conveyed material, thus increasing the surface suitable for the conductive thermal exchange.

Abstract: A conservation tillage implement having three or more rows of individual coulter wheel assemblies (50) laterally spaced apart and removably mounted on a cultivator frame, a coulter wheel assembly (50) in a given row being staggered with respect to the coulter wheel assemblies (50) in a longitudinally adjacent row. The coulter wheel assemblies (50) may be laterally adjustable and may be mounted to the cultivator frame using a mounting means that permits rotation about a vertical axis. The coulter wheel assemblies (50) may comprise a coil (51) spring having a horizontal spring axis to permit upward deflection in response to impact with an obstacle. Leveling attachments may optionally be mounted to the cultivator frame, along with additional field working tools. The implement is used in the management of crop residue as part of a minimum tillage strategy. The implement is particularly resistant to plugging and can be operated at high speeds without undue damage upon impact with obstacles. Advantageously, the implement can be operated in standing water, as found in the growing of rice.
