Abstract: An implantable spacer for placement between adjacent spinous processes in a spinal motion segment is provided. The spacer includes a body defining a longitudinal axis and passageway. A first arm and a second arm are connected to the body. Each arm has a pair of extensions and a saddle defining a U-shaped configuration for seating a spinous process therein. Each arm has a proximal caming surface and is capable of rotation with respect to the body. An actuator assembly is disposed inside the passageway and connected to the body. When advanced, a threaded shaft of the actuator assembly contacts the caming surfaces of arms to rotate them from an undeployed configuration to a deployed configuration. In the deployed configuration, the distracted adjacent spinous processes are seated in the U-shaped portion of the arms.

Abstract: There is a need in the art for microporous membranes having a relatively large average pore size. The present invention is directed to microporous membranes having a relatively large average pore size, in particular, an average pore size of greater than about 2.0 micrometers (µm) and in some embodiments from about 3.0 µm to about 15.0 µm.  The articles and materials of the present invention have a microporous structure characterized by a multiplicity of spaced (i.e., separated from one another), randomly dispersed domains of polymer connected by fibrils and a nucleating agent uniformly dispersed within the polymer matrix. This structure provides for advantageous porosity, strength, and stretchability of the microporous materials. In one exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the microporous membrane comprises a first layer comprising a poly(vinylidene fluoride) polymeric spherulitic matrix and a nucleating agent substantially uniformly dispersed throughout the poly(vinylidene fluoride) polymeric spherulitic matrix, wherein the nucleating agent comprises bicyclo[2.2.1]heptane-2,3-dicarboxylic acid, disodium salt.  The microporous membranes of the present invention may be used alone as a single layer or may be combined with one or more additional layers to form multi-layered articles. The microporous membranes and multi-layer articles of the present invention are suitable for use in a variety of applications including, but not limited to, microfiltration, particle filtration (e.g., red blood cells and yeast), and fuel cell applications.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne une batterie rechargeable avec un boîtier de batterie comprenant au moins une chambre de cellules ainsi qu'un corps de couvercle à base de résine synthétique (2) pour recouvrir une ouverture supérieure du boîtier de batterie. Un couvercle supérieur (9) présente un évidement dans sa face inférieure, et la fermeture de l'évidement est assurée sur la face supérieure du corps de couvercle. Des bornes positives et négatives (4) présentent des parties inférieures incorporées dans le corps de couvercle à des positions respectives qui se trouvent sur un côté du corps de couvercle et sur des extrémités opposées longitudinalement dudit côté, et présentent également des parties supérieures en saillie respectivement depuis lesdites positions. Un problème a été observé lors de l'incorporation d'une partie de chacune des sections de bornes par moulage par insertion dans la production d'une batterie rechargeable, celui concernant la difficulté d'adaptation entre le corps de couvercle et le boîtier de batterie due à la différence entre le pourcentage de contraction de ces parties du corps de couvercle au niveau desquelles les bornes sont exposées. Pour résoudre ce problème, des saillies (6T, 7T) sont formées au niveau de ces parties du corps de couvercle et/ou au niveau des parties proches de telles parties à partir desquelles les parties supérieures des bornes (4) font saillie.

Abstract: Transformer differential protection is provided by measuring a plurality of currents corresponding to a first set of windings and a second set of windings of a transformer, and compensating the currents based on their respective flows through either the first set of windings or the second set of windings. The compensated currents may be intentionally augmented to compensate for magnetizing inrush and/or stationary overexcitation conditions associated with the transformer. Augmentation based on stationary overexcitation, for example, may be based on either harmonic restraint or an addition of a V/Hz ratio to a restraining signal. A complex current ratio is calculated corresponding to the plurality of compensated currents. The complex current ratio may be based on a two-terminal equivalent power apparatus. Then, an alpha plane analysis is applied to the complex current ratio. Based on the alpha plane analysis, a power apparatus that includes the transformer is selectively tripped.
