Abstract: URETHROVESICAL ANASTOMOSIS SUTURING METHOD USING ARTICULATING LAPAROSCOPIC DEVICE A suturing method for anastomosis of live bodies and training bodies joins a duct having perimeter positions defined according to clock hour positions to an opening in a bladder using an articulating laparoscopic device (10) having a gripper (32, 33) at a distal end with open and closed positions for loading a suture needle (27) io in either a forehand or backhand direction. The gripper has a yaw motion including left and right positions and a roll motion either clockwise or counterclockwise. The open and closed positions, yaw motion, and roll motion are under manual control of a user through manual controls at a proximal end of the articulating laparoscopic device. The perimeter positions include a 12-o'clock position proximal to the user and a 15 6-o'clock position distal of the user. The method includes driving a suture at about the 6-o'clock position through the bladder and then the duct wherein the suture needle is loaded forehand, the yaw is in a left position, and the roll is clockwise. Orientations and directions are provided for other suturing positions.

Title: Ice machine safe mode freeze and harvest control and method
Inventor: TIRUMALA RAMESH B
IPC: F25C1/00
Filed: 2012-01-31
Abstract: A controller continues to operate an ice making machine in a safe mode when a failure of a component is detected. While in the safe mode due to failure of an ice thickness probe, the freeze cycle freeze time is based on an average freeze time of a predetermined number of the most previous freeze cycles prior to the failure. While in the safe mode due to failure of a water level probe, the water valve on time is based on an average water valve on time of a predetermined number of the most previous freeze cycles prior to the failure. If the failure is uncured after a predetermined time, the controller causes the ice making machine to enter a standby mode or disables the ice making machine from making ice.

Title: Flexible, self-venting retortable container
Inventor: MACK BENJAMIN PAUL
IPC: B65D33/01
Filed: 2012-08-22
Abstract: Containers are disclosed, as well as multilayer films used in such containers, which advantageously maintain a high seal strength even after being subjected to retort conditions for sterilization. These retortable containers and multilayer films are also beneficially self venting upon exposure to microwave heating, when the internal container pressure exceeds a threshold value. The self-venting nature of these containers arises from particular sealing characteristics, in which the seal width differs in defined, self-venting seal regions, relative to non-venting seal regions of a given peripheral seal. Particular structural features and geometries of the self-venting seal regions can be used to improve the location of venting and control of the vented gases. 12-- 12B

The geostress measuring method comprises: drilling a hole and conveying the two three-directional pressure boxes (1, 2) to a test site; grouting the drilled hole and sealing the drilled hole after being fully grouted; and after the slurry is solidified and the data is stable, substituting the six pressure data measured by the two three-directional pressure boxes (1, 2) into a geostress test principle formula, so as to obtain the geostress at the test site. The present method can directly observe the stress value inside a surrounding rock, and can acquire the observation data over an extended period of time, thus facilitating study on the stability of the surrounding rock and the geostress of a softrock in the depth of a coal mine.
